How does it do that when you have zero idea what we even believe in? You tell me the violence I suffered doesn't give me a free pass to "discriminate" but exactly what have I said that's even discriminatory? Seriously, name a single thing I've said here that's discriminatory. I'm waiting.

All I've said is that transfems do not have the right to harm us and get away with it. Exactly how is that non-inclusive? Exactly how does that "ignore" intersex people?

Also... "my binary"??? What are you even talking about. Can you please respond to something I've actually said?? I'm literally NB, GNC, and being worked up for intersex conditions. I literally didn't HAVE a proper puberty as a teen. I don't appreciate you passively misgendering me OR trying to speak over me as if I'm some ignorant outsider. I've been here for decades, hell, I've probably been trans longer than you've been ALIVE. Where do you get off putting these putrid words in my mouth?

Literally NOWHERE did I say transmascs need RF to save them. What I DID say is that if the trans movement keeps drawing dumb lines in the sand while allowing transfems to abuse transmascs scott free, there will be more of us RF trans people. That is a fact.

The trans community hates vulnerable minorities way more than RFs ever did, especially when it cannot even hold space for those harmed by it, or hold those who cause this level of harm accountable. RFs do Not want to erase trans people, and you'd know that if you actually read anything we DO believe in, instead of listening to the lies of the trans community that serve only to make you feel like you have no other option than to continue receiving gender-affirming abuse. Seriously, go read some Dworkin and tell me what you think. If you're brave enough.

It's never, "Who did that to you? We need to get them out of our community". It's always, "Suck it the fuck up and keep taking the abuse, because it doesn't happen often enough for me to personally care about it". You're a fucking fool if this is how you treat people, and yet you somehow think you've got the moral highground.

Trans women that mock us, degrade us, or try to trigger our dysphoria ARE NOT ALLIES. If that hurts trans people, then they need to stop siding with people who ACTUALLY HARM US instead of making feminists the scapegoat.

You don't have to tolerate being treated like that just because the community has lied to you and made you feel like nobody else will love or accept you for who you are.

Also, I literally have several transfem friends, one of which literally got me into RF LMAO. They are sick and tired of porn-addicted behavior and sexual harassment, and that being a part of transfem culture when it never should've even an acceptable benchmark. One of my transfem friends regularly comments on how dysphoric and uncomfortable she is in transfem spaces because of this consistent trend of NOT HOLDING ABUSERS ACCOUNTABLE. That shit literally HURTS TRANS WOMEN TOO. But for the record, I shouldn't fucking need a trans womans endorsement in order for my criticism on a community I literally belong to, to matter.

Hell, since posting my 1st reply, I've suddenly had a dump of 40+ notifications of new interactions with my blog overnight, with all but your response being solely positive, and the majority of the accounts belonging to trans people. People scrolling so far back on my blog that they reach posts from literal months ago, and then following me. Clearly, what I'm saying is resonating with others. Tell me why that is if I'm simply being "discriminatory".

You are just being so ignorant right now. This entire narrative you're trying to build even about me is built on nothing but assumptions and lies to the extent that you have even misgendered me. But you're the morally superior one? Yeah, right. Try again.

uvb76fan is posting in this tag talking about all the ways trans men have it “worse”, while misrepresenting the statistic she is citing. most likely banking on no one looking closer or reading the links.

this person is a terf. if you search trans on her blog it is immediately clear, i am not using terf loosely she is literally actually a terf.

we cannot let our weariness at not being heard by some of our community push us into the sick and malformed arms of transmisogyny and radical feminism, these people do not care about us at all, they are trying to harm every single one of us. our solidarity with trans women, men and people as whole should cause us to slam hard on the breaks. no matter how many trans women you see being antitransmasculine it does not mean that there are not so many more who are our genuine allies, do not let the algorithm pushing hateful person after hateful person your way skew your understandings. the transphobes want dissent, they want us to tear each other apart. we do not need to contribute to the harm to have ours lessened. (causing harm to a vulnerable minority is never morally correct no matter what got you there in the first place. also straight up trans women are easy to love and are inherently deeply deserving of community solidarity, and fascism (which terfs are) should not have any appeal whatsoever no matter how hurt you are but i digress.)

on another note: we cannot and must not reactively take on the mentalities of trans rad fems, no gender in the trans community needs to be the most oppressed to be taken seriously and given respect in our community, the equality in our suffering is immense and must be acknowledged without each group needing to prove we are the most victimized to get the care and community support we need. this is harmful no matter who is doing it. we absolutely must nip this kind of thinking in the bud.

push back on terfs in this tag everywhere you can, and if there is a reason you cannot comment or reblog to shut them down, block them on sight.

Like or rb if trans girls r pretty, and dysphoria is mean to them

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

Alien Romulus is a great time. Also, cognitive reframing is a profoundly powerful tool for coping with and managing powerful emotions. I’ll always be sad that I can’t carry my own children, but dysphoria doesn’t have to own that feeling.

Ya see the difference? 🤭 💕

It's less of a "I look wrong" now and more of a "oh I need to clean myself up" lol it gets better.

Promise ❤️

I get this so much. My gear is nice but it feels fake, as I know it's not actually MINE. That's its not actually biologically part of me

I'll never have the correct body, I'll always be incomplete. I'll be incomplete forever. My body feels sad and gross right now. I just have this horrible feeling of not being right. I hate how light my phantom tail and ears are. I hate how I can't swish my ears or swivel my ears or see in the dark. I hate how I can't grow fur or run on all fours comfortably. I can't fly or wrap my wings around people. I'll never have the body I should have. Who I really am will always be stuck in my head. I'll always be stuck in my head. And their's nothing that I can do about it. Ik I've said it before but gear really doesn't work for me. I wear it and it feels nice but it doesn't truly feel like ME. I'm just putting on a costume and trying to forget what I really look like. I really do wish there was full body mods or some type of therapy or treatment that could replace my human dna for werecat dna. I watch transformation media and it just fuels me with so much sadness to see others achieve my dreame even though they're fictional. Full animal transition doesn't exist right now. I'll just have to suffer in an incomplete body for the rest of my life. Stuck with the knowledge that I'll never truly be myself. Coping with this is something I'll just have to learn to do but it will be a difficult and long journey. Right now I'm just trying to make amends with my situation and keep going.

Thinking more about Mech dysphoria today.

Stepping out of your cockpit and stumbling because you don't have the right number of legs.

Blinking your eyes out of sync because you don't have the right number anymore, don't have access to on board cameras the way you're supposed to.

Struggling to grab and pick things up because you have the wrong number of fingers.

Failing to recognize your face in the mirror without layers of armor plating over it.

Feeling like a brain pulled from its body and forced to function independently.

be proud

It do be capping

"Transition helped my dysphoria"

"Transition did not help my dysphoria"

Can we talk about the secret third thing, where transition made my gender dysphoria go away but revealed the yawning abyss of a much worse and uncomfortable truth which is that the gender I want to be doesn't actually exist and I don't like being human

[imstillalexcomic]

Ok, so things got pretty heavy last time and I wanted to do something a bit lighter.  Not lighter in the sense that I have a light amount of hair, I’ve got like at lot of hair.

Like, a lot a lot.

Like, stay noticeably warmer in the winter compared other folks a lot.

Like, I don’t have hair…

…I have insulation.

So behold the wonderful genetic combination of the Mediterranean and South Caucasus.

It’s fuzzy, extremely fuzzy.

I aspire to be a bigger problem for my demons than my demons ever are for me.

(TW: Depressive thoughts)

To be clear, this is a sort of Parody of yesterday's comic. Please do not worry about me 💕

If you feel similar to this, please please talk to someone. Don't keep it to yourself, you deserve to feel comfortable in your own body.

Therianthropy is really a unique type of existential and body horror quite honestly.

Perpetually stuck longing for experiences and abilities your body is physically incapable of providing you, fighting against a form that feels utterly foreign and disfigured compared to how your mind attempts to interpret it. An animal shoved inside a vessel and society it was never meant to even have knowledge of, with no obtainable means of escape.

The horror of always appearing to those around you as something almost alien to yourself, of your own tendons and bones barring you from grasps at freedom, of being something you are not.
