i promise you this: whoever you're becoming, however much effort you're putting in everyday, whatever it is you're working towards outweighs the person you've been and the mistakes you've made. who you are today matters. you are not ruined.

“We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.”
Dead Poets Society (1989) dir. Peter Weir

To the gay trans guys: your love for other men is pure and beautiful. To live your truth and to love other men unapologetically is a radical act of self love as well. You brighten the world just by being in it as a gay trans guy. Your truth is beautiful, and one day you may find yourself at the receiving end of a love so strong you can see too what he sees in you.
Loving yourself as a gay trans guy is to love the guy your boyfriend, your partner, your husband, will love. Love yourself as unabashedly as you would love him, because you both deserve it.
An illustration for an upcoming book to be published by Nypon förlag in August, Fakta om sex (”Facts about sex”). This one picture is supposed to show young people a realistic image of how sex can be: not always perfect, sometimes silly.
The original version of this got deleted, because apparently an educational image for young people is too raunchy for tumblr, even if nothing nsfw was visible. I think it’s sad that a realistic queer image like this gets deleted, while so much over-sexualized and sexist imagery gets to stay. The original image can be seen on my other social media!
