Here’s a Mega folder with a handful of junk for you trans girls to watch

///TGIRL FEATURE FILMS (alphabetical order)

Adam (2019) it’s about a cis boy who’s mistaken for a trans boy and rolls with it. Big cast of trans characters including a tgirl played by a tgirl who everyone wants to fuck. Directed by a trans dude. Highly legit. If you’re still hung up on pre release speculation based on the novel then you’re the most annoying person alive.

Assassination Nation (2018) The first half is Euphoria and the second half is The Purge. ONE OF THE BEST TGIRL MOVIES OF ALL TIME.

Bit (2019) Lesbian girl power vampire movie where the main character is a tgirl played by a tgirl. It’s solid. I find it frustrating that they hint at her being trans without explicitly acknowledging it (and she’s passing as fuck, so it’s easy to not notice), but I know that’s what some of y'all want.

Boy Meets Girl (2014) Cis dude for trans girl love story. Pretty normie, but also you see her fully naked (gock out) at the end.

Funeral Parade of Roses (1969) Extremely 60s. Cool as hell.

Lady Daddy (2010) South Korean romcom about a trans girl played by a cis girl who tries unconvincingly to back pass when she finds out she has a kid. Very cute.

Lingua Franca (2019) written directed and starring Isabel Sandoval. An undocumented trans woman immigrant in New York deals with a cis dude partner being a cis dude. Which is also the plot of The Garden Left Behind (2019).

Myra Breckinridge (1970) Raquel Welch is a trans woman and her goal is the destruction of the last vestigial traces of traditional manhood! It’s Fight Club! It’s Hackers! It’s divisive, but it’s probably my favorite movie!

So Pretty (2019) Literally the first scripted feature length (non pornographic tho it does have cock) film to feature two trans women played by trans women kissing eachother.

Something Must Break (2014) THE OTHER BEST TGIRL MOVIE OF ALL TIME. Drugs. Crimes. Gock. Slow motion pissing. Slow motion park Fucking. Genuinely the most beautiful sex scene I’ve seen in any movie. And she makes it to the end still alive and more sure of herself and at peace than ever.

Tangerine (2015) Groundbreaking and also a bunch of the secondary characters are real life pornstars (which I think is neat).

///TGIRL DOCUMENTARIES

Bambi (2013) about a trans girl showgirl in 50s/60s paris

Paris is Burning (1990) basically it’s Pose.

Shinjuku Boys (1995) Trans dudes working in a tokyo club that caters to tboy chasing cis girls. There’s at least one trans girl in the mix too.

///FORCED FEMINIZATION

A Reflection of Fear (1972) They raised her as a girl and it made her do murders! It drags in places, but the girl in it is so ethereal and it has ageplay vibes and daddy issues.

Memory Run (1996) A very fun direct to video scifi action flick about fighting fascism by blowing up your pre transition self with a rocket launcher + it’s based on a novel written by a trans woman.

She-Man A Story of Fixation (1967) Notable for being such a cliche sissy maid fantasy while also coming out so early + it was Bob Clark’s first film lol.

Sleepaway Camp (1983) A more famous version of Reflection of Fear.

Surrender Dorothy (1998) A MUST WATCH. I personally bought it on a physical DVD and made an ISO of it for you because I was unsatisfied with the quality of the only copy that seemed to exist online.

I was gonna include The Skin I Live In, but I didn’t already have it on my hard drive and it was taking too long to torrent. It’s on fmovies anyways.

///SHORT FILMS

Happy Birthday Marsha (2018) It’s about Marsha P. Johnson.

I don’t Know (1971) I’m obsessed with the trans girl in this one she just keeps popping up in all kinds of early 70s stuff. Directed by Penelope Spheeris (who is the sister of the cis gf in it).

Mesmeralda (2019) AN ABSOLUTE BANGER HOLY FUCK THE VIBES ARE OFF THE CHARTS PLS WATCH THIS

Pat Rocco’s Changes (1970) It’s that same girl again!

Queens at Heart (1967) I can’t get over that hairdresser girl thinking she’s back passing. Most adorably weak boymode ever.

Shangri-La (2021) Another Isabel Sandoval joint.

The Yellow Wallpaper (2021) Freshly post op girl with a supportive boyfriend goes unhinged.

Undress Me (2012) Jana Bringlöv Ekspong did a few short films. Give janabringlove a google after watching this.

///JUST LIKE BTW

Some of these would be tough to find elsewhere, but most of the movies are also watchable on fmovies and/or can be torrented in higher quality.

After you’ve worked your way through the folder then just start doing Google searches for trans films. Look at IMDB keywords and letterboxd lists. There are so many more out there. These are just like my personal picks.

just found my new watch later list

i'm trying so hard to be normal and have reasonable expectations here but like omfg this trans girl that absolutely rocked my world last week is saying that I should meet her gf (they're poly) tomorrow and like just the thought of how good things might go... its got me in shambles

If your goal is to normalize gender-nonconformity you’re gonna have to accept that some people will fuck with gender as hard as they can while still being unequivocally, 100% cis and that is okay. There’s no egg to crack or callout to write. This is a good thing actually.

i met a girl once who identified as cis, and in addition to a conventionally feminine birthname and she/her pronouns, she also had a second, traditionally masculine name she used with he/him pronouns in free variation. Its kinda baller as hell tbh. cisgender just with a little extra flavoring. cis+, if you will

quick heads up: blog’s undergoing maintenance, might be rb’ing stuff w new tags, stuff like that

In light of this new venture brothers movie thing coming up, here's my wishlist for some of the characters i think they should make canonically trans:

1. Colonel gathers: has the most overtly trans-coded material to go off of imo. Went undercover as a woman in a strip club, and then went into a depression after the job was done and was seemingly forcibly de-transitioned. In the next few appearances, the colonel is like totally a wreck abt no longer being a woman, the writers even put in a "man in a woman's body" line.

2: agent Kimberly McManus: She only shows up in like 2 episodes but i'm totally obsessed with her. Her first character arc being mistaken as a man because of her deep voice and how her only visible facial feature while wearing her helmet is her prominent chin is so perfect to me. My clocky queen

3: dean venture: I want Dawn venture to be cannon so bad. The skinny nerdy guy to beautiful woman pipeline is real and brother? Dean is a prime candidate for a one way trip.

and sure dr. mrs. the monarch too ig

im very ideologically and philosophically against algorithmically generated content and feeds and all HOWEVER tumblr keeps showing me blogs of beautiful goth transgender women and you know, i really cant be upset about that

It has been So much fun seeing people tag their results and then looking at their blogs afterwards, I’m not saying this quiz is necessarily 100% accurate but every time I’m like “oh yeah I think I see that actually”

WITH GOD AS MY WITNESS

I henceforth dedicate my following tab to the collection of as many hot internet trans womens' blogs as humanly possible

i wanna post but every time i try to write something i get this weird Bloggers Anxiety where i don’t know if this fits the vibe im trying to cultivate or whatevs, but like idek what that vibe is, and i’d hardly call this acc “cultivated”

can’t a girl just blog?

i will literally interpret the exact same meme less charitably on instsgram than i would on tumblr

jesus i can’t stop looking at the “Link’s awakening” forcefem blender edit. i think i’m gonna print it out and get it framed eventually

the asl sign for “transgender“ is basically the same as the sign for ”beautiful“ but signed at the chest instead of in front of the face.

so that’s cool.

this is my imperfect not-a-fluent-signer understanding but:

(based on a presentation by a deaf trans guy i was at in 2005 where he was promoting that sign)

it seems like that sign was invented and implemented by trans people over the last 10-ish years. before that the predominant vocabulary was “sex change” and then some deaf trans people were like “yo fuck that” and came up with the current sign, which starts off with the sign for “myself,” then motion that indicates both change and coming together, and ends with the closed hand held against the sternum.

and in the process it also mimics the sign for “beautiful”

and because of spatial grammar, things closer to the front of your body in ASL are generally more vital, more emphatic, more immediate, more present.

so it’s actually a case where the word coherently indicates “beauty” and “self transformation” and contains hints of the complete thought of “my self transforming, through a coming together of disparate factors, into something more real, immediate, and vital than I was before.”

so yeah. that’s just fuckin’ awesome.

and that’s just the way to express that concept now.

Thats really beautiful
