venting in tags about gender n shit (long as hell) (u can comment and talk 2 me as always :3)

[sapphia]

radfem discourse (and other extreme/simplified radical discourse) infesting the internet did so much damage to modern conversation. the terf-y 'hierarchies of oppression' concept that holds that some people are more oppressed than others and you can get rankings or levels like it's some sort of global pvp contest.

what we've got now isn't that combatatitve on the surface but there's still this underlying principle that oppression is like a scoresheet you can tick off and add points up for to redeem on your carrd or whatever, rather a complex interweaving of factors of everything from race, sex, class, religion, upbringing, global location, etc etc.

i find it very interesting and odd how people react when someone (who is very much in the public eye) comes out as trans and changes their name... on letterboxd if you have any reviews of elliot page's movies before he came out, you're expected the change his name if you wrote it out in your review... and they'll even go to reviews from like OVER A DECADE AGO and say "um it's elliot now bro, you should change this 🤓☝️" but it's so funny cause it just feels revisionist to me like... did elliot himself ask you to do that? did he ask you to forget that he was ever "ellen"? it's really odd because it's almost always cis lgb people doing this and they never stop to wonder if they shouldn't bother simply because it doesn't hurt anything. if someone was deadnaming him ON PURPOSE AFTER THE FACT, then i completely understand why you would comment on the review and whatnot - but it's just crazy seeing a review from like 2016 that says "i love elliot page 🩷" because you just know that they went back and changed it. i can understand why it makes people uncomfortable... but it's weird that we don't allow trans people themselves to control the narrative on things like this, y'know? are we entitled to change a review simply because you're deadnaming him NOW even though you weren't when you wrote the review 5 or 6 years ago? does elliot want people to act like he was never "ellen"? or is it more likely just that it makes cis lgb people uncomfortable because thry think they need to have a strict adhereance to things like this - so much so that they wish they could go back in time so they never wrote his deadname, even if there's no way they would have known his inner life at the time 🤷‍♀️

I’m watching this show & there’s an older transfem nonbinary character that’s dating a dad of a 13 y/o nonbinary kid, and I’m on the episode where the kid meets the partner for the first time. and the kid is on my nerves with the typical Kid Hates Dads New Partner shtick. And like I get it when kids have a hard time with parents dating. but because of my own experience with queerness and unaccepting family I’m Annoyed cause iTS GIVING PRIVILEGE!!! Like oh my god if I was in that position I’d be so fucking excited!!! This awesome older queer nonbinary person starting to come into the family, wanting to get close & bringing more older queer people around too!!! That’s so fucking cool!! like God I Wish That Were Me!!!!

Making Zahra and Jayda go from being in a hetero relationship, to both transitioning and immediately floating the other direction, felt like the only right thing to do for me

[ilseofskadi]

damn i'm really feeling sick on international lesbian day of all days smh

I wished I liked kids bcs I know everyone expects women to love them and I feel like a bad person for not doing so but I just can't, they are too noisy and too irrational for me, i don't know how to communicate with them or to make them happy without feeling ridiculous. I try so hard to find them adorable but I have the anti mother instict. I would never hurt one and I hate people who do so, specially people who have kids and act like is not the biggest responsability you could have in the world, as if kids wasn't giving half of your life to someone. It's a me problem not them. I'm a person with very poor social skills, I don't naturally know how to act around people unless I trust them a lot, and with kids is specially bad like usually I observe people and copy them and thats more or less enough but with them I just don't have a clue how to act around them. I remember when I was in school, since us the girls were eight or nine in special days we could go and play with the smaller kids and all the girls loved to do that. I went with them bcs I wanted to be like them so bad and they seemed so happy with the kids but I was just like O.O the whole time bored and feeling like an outsider.

ngl sometimes the sentiment of "don't ever say anything that might suggest someone may be trans ever" on tumblr being as pervasive as it is feels less like a "i'm trying to be respectful of how you identify/not trying to pry into something you may not be comfortable with" thing and more adjacent to the "trans-as-social-contagion" line that transphobes have.

i didn't feel like i was able to id as anything but cis woman until one of my transfem nb lesbian friends took the time to ask me how i felt about my relationship to gender after watching me post quite a bit in the vent channels on a discord server we were both on. she told me that a lot of the feelings i was having about my relationship to gender and sexuality were things she had also felt before when figuring her own relationship to it out (albeit her journey was different because she also has to navigate transmisogyny), that i shouldn't be afraid to explore the possibility of being nonbinary and even just using "lesbian" as a means to describe my relationship to gender if that felt right, and that i wouldn't be stepping on anyone's toes in doing so.

and that conversation was like a sigh of relief to me after having held my breath for years and being afraid of putting an actual name to how i felt about myself. tbh, if she hadn't reached out, i'd probably still be here telling myself that i'm a cis woman despite how much the concept made me want to crawl out of my skin and made me feel like i was having to smother a part of myself in the process. and i do not think that this is a completely unique experience.

while there's always a line that can be crossed when it comes to just about any personal topic and ultimately that gender identity is journey of self-discovery, the idea that even mildly and compassionately suggesting that someone might benefit from exploring options with their gender identity during a heart-to-heart is somehow inherently disrespectful, or god forbid, predatory (especially when it comes to transfems) is something a lot of people need to unpack.
