Dear Trans Youth,

It’s not your job to grow up fast.

It’s not your responsibility to teach the adults around you.

It’s not your fault people don’t understand you.

You are being out through things nobody should ever be put through, especially not kids.

You are doing so, so well.

I’m proud of you.

Drake strikes me as the type of guy who would pee on the carpet as a power play in a couples argument

Hey all, I was forced to leave high school and my home behind in early 2023 as a minor due to severe transphobia and abuse from family. After escaping, I was taken in by someone who was essentially exploiting my situation.

Eventually I found safety with a QTPOC household who helped me secure longer term housing.

This fundraiser would help me afford things such as rent, food, medical expenses and gender affirming care.

I’m currently saving up for gender affirming surgery as well as a necessary dental procedure.

Please consider supporting or sharing if you’re able to, it truly makes a difference and would mean a lot to me!

(Feel free to send a message with any questions.)

The growing problem of "they" for trans people

Something I've noticed growing more common in my life recently has been people using exclusively "they" when referring to binary trans people who don't use "they"

Why is this a problem?

Using "they" when referring to someone when you don't know is seen as "better" in a lot of spaces now, which I can agree with as you don't know what their actual pronouns are. The problem I've noticed is that when meeting a trans person, a lot of people seem to default to "they" even after being told what pronouns they actually prefer. This can be for a lot of reasons, but the most common ones I hear are "I didn't want to assume" and "its not misgendering, they is neutral!"

Example situation

Person A meets person B, a trans woman. A doesn't know B's pronouns and so refers to B as "they." B corrects A, saying she prefers "she," but A continues to say "they" because its gender neutral. However, A does not do the same to cis women.

Do you see the problem now?

The use of exclusively "they" on trans people but not cis people, no matter your excuse, shows that you don't really see them as what they identify as and is quite transphobic since you're literally ignoring their identity and not seeing them as how they want to be seen.

"Okay, what should I do?"

Simple, just ask them their pronouns and then ACTUALLY USE THEM!! If he says he, DONT USE EXCLUSIVELY THEY! If she says she, DONT USE EXCLUSIVELY THEY! If they say they, well. yeah, use they, obviously. If xe say neopronouns and you don't know how to use those, just ask! If any part of someone's identity confuses you, just fucking ask them instead of assuming, for the love of god, and once they tell you, don't ignore what they said.

That's all. Just please stop calling people who don't use "they" by that.

im trying on some new clothes i bought. i feel confident today, so im looking in the mirror. as im inspecting myself, i notice that the shirt is just a bit tighter than i would like, and it hugs each of my shameful curves. the hemline of the pants sits firm at the small of my waist. i notice how the fabric stretches around my hips. the colors are bright, with no shadows in sight to hide my sickening anatomy. i look myself up and down, and in an instant, im tearing the garments off my body. my hands are moving much faster than my mind, my eyes closing, eager to no longer drink in my poisonous appearance.

"someday, all of this will be over," i promise myself as i reach for old faithful instead—a worn-out oversized sweater, "someday."

I think maybe the trans community would benefit from not just internalizing "trans men are men" but also "trans men are trans". Some of you really haven't unlearned basic transphobia and you think it's okay cuz we're men.
