“Fuck baby, you look so hot when you're all messed up like that.” I said, taking your hand away from your mouth and tugging on your hair, redirecting your gaze to the reflection of the two of us in the mirror.

See that’s the fun thing, I’m enigender.

explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like “male”, “female”, “nonbinary”, “masculine”, “feminine” or “androgynous”.

go!

I saw something in the news today that truly took my breath away. If you have been paying attention to U.S. politics over the past few days, you’ve most likely seen this woman:

This is Bishop Mariann Budde, and on Monday (Trump’s inauguration) she led an interfaith prayer for Trump and the incoming administration. During the service she asked him to have mercy for LGBTQ+ Americans and undocumented immigrants. This was badly received by the Trump administration (as expected).

After seeing headlines about this woman, I read something that I wanted to share. In 1998 a man named Matthew Shepard was murdered for being gay. I’m not going to get into the details of his death on this post, but please be warned it is extremely triggering if you do choose to read more on your own. Matthew Shepard’s death caused a lot of change in the U.S. regarding how LGBTQ hate crimes are handled, and laws that were passed to protect LGBTQ+ people.

Now you’re probably wondering what Matthew Shepard has to do with an Episcopal bishop. For years after Matthew Shepard’s murder, his family had held onto his remains, too scared to lay him to rest in fear of his final resting place being vandalized. In 2018, Budde had his remains interred at the National Cathedral, which is also the place where the interfaith prayer for Trump and his administration took place. The impact of this really had an effect on me. Budde could have led a non confrontational prayer service, and chosen not to mention the harm that will come to the people Trump and his administration are going after. Instead she chose to call out hate and fear in front of some of the most powerful people on the planet, and at a place that has such a large historic meaning to the LGBTQ community.

In the next few years there will be many challenges in protecting free speech, standing up against hate, and protecting those in our communities. But I would like to believe that for every Donald Trump and Elon Musk, there are people like Marianne Budde. There are those of us who can’t speak up for themselves, so it’s important for those of us who can to amplify our voices, even if it’s not the ‘popular’ thing to do.

“And he said you should apologize. Will you apologize?

I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.” - Mariann Budde’s response in a Time interview

Ice cold takes from a Transgender Woman:

Men are not inherently Evil

Everyone has the capacity for evil

Transgender Men are men

Transgender Women are women

Excluding Cisgender Men from your spaces requires Transgender Men to out themselves if they want to engage (Same for Women)

Anyone can be Non-Binary, there is no "look" or requirement

Non-binary masculine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces, many are just treated as men and predators

Non-binary feminine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces without being seen as "Woman-Lite"

Edited the wording on the first point because too many terfs keep thinking I'm their friend.

On Pride

I want to start by wishing everyone a (belated) happy pride month. I hope that every day has been one that brought you joy, and so will be every day to come.

On that note, be PROUD.

Be proud of what you are, be it human or not. Be it different or same, be it normal or strange. Take pride in what you are, for pride is no sin, no matter what they might have you believe.

You are worth so much to me, and to those who chose you to be among those they surround themselves with. You are able to make our lives so much easier, so much better, if just by chosing to be you. So take pride in that!

This month is about so much more than celebration of those that are queer- a term I claim for myself, and one I bet many of you do as well. It is about celebrating the differences we all have. It is about celebrating what makes us unique.

After all, if we were all the same, what a bore life would be!

Remember, my kits. Whatever life thows at you, what makes you different, what makes you you, makes you strong. It makes you a survivor.

"love is love" until it doesn't include sex

"love is love" until it lives in separate beds

"love is love" until it is queer platonic

"love is love" until it does not comply with compulsory sexuality and amatonormativity

love IS love, for aspecs, for sex repulsed folk and for platonic relationships

"love is love" apply to more than same-sex relationships in a world where romantic and sexual relationships are considered more valuable

Remember to advocate for Asexuals and Aromantics this pride. Because we are also here, and we are also queer

I recommend giving this a full read. The hateful corpses in charge of the USA are actively trying to bring down a vital service to LGBTQIA+ people. If you can donate to the Trevor Project, please do. If money is tight, please share the link around and get people aware of this. I am not part of the LGBTQIA+ community, but this effectively active genocide against those in the LGBTQIA+ community boils me something fierce.

something I'd like to say..

i dont care if someone's preferred pronouns bring you discomfort, use them or dont talk about them or interact with them.

"but indi! it/its pronouns are dehumanizi-"

NOPE! i dont care!

"but, this person goes by he/him but dresses femininely-"

so? is it actually hurting you?

"but neopronouns are hurting the trans communi-"

transphobes and terfs are hurting the trans community!
