I dont think tme people realize that growing up as a boy means that you will experience brutal levels of physical violence from your peers and that is an expected part of growing up as a "boy", even if you dont show any signs of weakness (a.k.a faggyness). Highschool specially.

Not to even BEGIN the levels of psychological violence that is explicitly targeted at young boys. How young boys have to learn how to protect themselves in social situations lest they turn into the one thats acceptable to make fun of.

Imagine being a trans woman in that type of environment and youll realize why a lot of us dont talk abt it.

Your peers and sometimes even adults will also sexually harass and molest you and it's treated as a haha funny joke. Like I cannot emphasize enough how normalized that is.

i don't remember where but someone once said being transfem means you experience the same abuse and oppression as cis women, just without any of the protections that cis women are afforded, and i think it applies very well here too

like many AFAB people think their experiences of being sexualised and harassed from a young age are a unique part of their "female socialisation" (awful gender essentialist concept) but as an androgyne """boy""" i was put through the same shit, the only difference was i knew for certain nobody would have protected me

Just a reminder for people who may not know, in light of protestors at UCLA being shot in the face with rubber bullets— rubber bullets are not bullets made of rubber. They are metal bullets encased in rubber.

Despite being called “non-lethal” or sometimes “less lethal”, they are well known to cause death and permanent disability.

Here’s a photo showing their size— these are actual rubber bullets used during the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020.

Do not let them downplay the severity of what they are subjecting this students to for standing against genocide. Stay safe and stay educated.

Remember Ferguson when protesters had giant holes and gashes from these?

As protests start ramping up and violence escalates please remember:

DO NOT PUT MILK IN YOUR EYES FOR PEPPER SPRAY OR TEAR GAS.

It can and will cause infection due to bacteria. Flush with water, distilled if possible, and never EVER wear contact lenses to protests where there may be police retaliation.

Please reblog. It may save someone's sight.
