y'know what? I'm gonna say it

asking if someone is afab or amab is transphobic

the only people who need to know what gender you were assigned at birth are medical professionals and potentially sexual partners. otherwise, there is literally no reason anyone needs to know your agab

"but I have trauma with amab people" "but afab people are annoying" that sounds like a you problem and does not justify asking people what's in their pants. because that is what you are doing – just with politically correct terminology

you cannot call yourself a trans ally and then ask to know what's in someone's pants. end of story

(also? some people aren't afab or amab. neither sex nor gender are binary)

Hello. Hi. I know you want new music.

I want you to know that I am hard at work. There were some restrictions I was under, for a lot longer than it seemed, but they are no longer in the way. I’m sure you can fill in the blanks.

I’m always writing aimlessly and lawlessly as you know. But “album mode” is a whole other arena and the games are just beginning. I am working on some of my favorite stuff I’ve ever conjured. Wild to think that it hasn’t even been 2 years since IICHLIWP! I know it feels like so much longer. It does to me too. But there were 2 years and 7 months between HFK and Manic and honestly I think it was worth it. The time I took. And the growth that got me from that album to the next.

Thank you for having the patience and the faith.

It will pay off in the long run.

This feels like my debut all over again, in some ways.

Your love and support have carried me through a time where I thought maybe I only had a few albums left in me, but I know now that there are so many more than I could have ever dreamed.

Anyways, I love you.

Down the rabbit hole I go 🕳️

See you soon.

I want to make a pretty boy all submissive and desperate for me. I want to reach around and rub his t cock and stick my fingers in his pretty little cunt. I want to hear his cute moans and whimpers while I edge him. Seeing him all pathetic and desperate would be so fucking hot. I would fuck his pretty hole with my fingers and get him almost there only to pull them out and slap his cunt hard. I want to see his cock twitch. I want him to beg me to let him cum.

Twitter and tiktok are like a coral reef

It’s loud and bright and productive and glamorous. It’s fast-paced and things cycle through the environment in hours. Everyone is trying to fight for their position in the food chain and stay Relevant. There are lots of pretty things to look at. If something gets Popular it has an impact on everything around it, for a brief time until the next big thing arrives. To an outside observer it’s chaos but to those involved it has order, reason, a Purpose.

Tumblr is like a deep-sea ecosystem.

Things are slow and weird. Memes bounce around for years and even decades. People exist in their little isolated hydrothermal vent communities of mutuals. Sometimes something big happens (suez canal, November 5th, Queen Lizzie kickin’ it) and we all gather around like a whale fall but for the most part we’re just snootling around in the sand doing whatever the fuck. Occasionally someone comes down and shines their flashlight around and immediately leaves and tells their friends about what freaky shit we have going on in the depths. We don’t care. We’re very busy talking about Our Friend Jonathan from a book published in the 1800s like worms slowly digesting the bones of a long-dead organism.

Sometimes you'll be drifting around minding your own business, and something massive and horrible will drift past just out of sight range and you'll know it feom the way the current changes. And you'll be glad it didn't see you.

You’ll step on seaweed.

kneeling down beside my bed and folding my hands and closing my eyes: dear god please let me have some gay sex soon and also maybe let me win the lottery so i never have to get a job again. okay goodbye i mean amen

So uh. This is a bit of a vent. I’m a trans guy and I feel like I’m masculine but in a cis (traditional) way. Meaning I like lifting weights, putting together furniture, poking around in the hood of my car, camping, fishing (even though I don’t eat fish at all, I do like my red meat though), and I’m reserved about my emotions (largely due to being extremely uncomfortable with others seeing me get emotional) in addition to being proud of my more stereotypically masculine traits like my assertiveness, straightforwardness, and that I hold my ground. I kinda feel alienated from a lot of the community in general because of this because I just feel like in these sorts of spaces it’s seen as a “bad” thing to not want to be soft or to want to be closer to the more traditional idea of masculinity (this is ofc without the toxic bullshit I’m strongly against misogyny and am gay, and I do believe people can and should express their feelings if they need to) and it’s kinda frustrating because it feels like I’d have to be something I’m not to be considered “acceptable” but maybe I’m reading things wrong?

hey, i get what you're saying, i think a lot of binary trans men feel very isolated because displays of masculinity are often viewed as a threat or "not queer" by many people. it can make it hard to feel accepted as many people act like traditionally masculine men are all at fault or are all problematic. i think your expression of transness is awesome. i love traditionally masculine trans men. i was one for many years, and there are still things like that that bring me so much masculine joy. i lived at the gym when i was a bit more able bodied, and i still love lifting weights!

what i think needs to happen is the community on the whole needs to understand that masculinity can be and is queer and it's not a threat or unacceptable. trans men don't have to be soft and feminine to be accepted as part of the community. being a very "by the book" trans man who enjoys being read as a cis man and interpreted as one isn't a bad thing, either. it's one of the many, many ways to be a trans man and it's just as fine as all the rest!

i think that's kind of where it's coming from. queer men are only viewed as acceptable/non threatening if they're feminine in some way and that just doesn't cut it. all queer men are good. hyper masculine bears and trans men are still queer. masculinity can be a very queer thing, especially in stereotypical displays of manhood. that's a huge part of bear culture, is being hypermasculine in a distinctly queer way.

i rambled a bit, but i think you're awesome i hope you're able to find a group of people who make you feel a bit less awkward in the community. i know it can be very hard for trans guys to find acceptance, especially in the larger MLM community, but you are not alone and you're not doing anything wrong for enjoying and celebrating your masculinity, and the way that you personally are masculine. take care, i hope things look up for you soon. keep being badass

I'm not "abandoning womanhood" because I'm trans-masculine. I've always been, and will always be, a feminist, and will stand up for the rights of my sisters every chance I get. But I never was, and never will be a woman.

Trans-masc people get a lot of flack for "reinforcing stereotypes" by "deciding" to be trans because they don't fit into stereotypes of womanhood. But the truth of the matter is, trans people don't choose to be trans, and their unapologetic existence doesn't enforce gender norms - it rejects them. Just like cisgender (non-trans) men, trans men and trans-masculine individuals can present however they want - whether that be in a stereotypically "masculine" way, stereotypically "feminine" way, or somewhere in between. Trans masc folks have a diverse array of gender presentations, and all of them are valid. Their gender identity is not rooted to their presentation (nor is anyone else's), so they don't enforce gender norms.

The existence of trans-masculine people has been far too often painted as anti-feminist, when it's in fact quite the opposite. We need equality for all genders, and trans-masc people being their authentic selves helps this cause, rather than hurting it.
