we were lovers before we were even born in this world

being trans and listening to uneducated cis people talk about trans topics is like being a math teacher and hearing another person confidently say that 2 + 3 equals 18 and refusing to believe you even after you explain in great detail why the answer is 5

animecore people PLEASE be careful about not rbing loli i have had to tell multiple mutuals about really obviously sketchy shit just today. like please glance at things before you rb them. ask urself:

  • does this person look young?
  • how much are they wearing? is their stomach and chest exposed? are their clothes designed to show off their stomach, legs and chest?
  • how are they posed? is their bottom or chest emphasized?

and then reblog after doing that. also… like it doesn’t hurt 2 be safe.. if something looks like it could be sketchy but u arent sure.. Dont take the chance.

a lot of this should be obvious and basic thought processes, but try to Think Before You Rb.

in stone butch blues leslie feinberg talked abt the 3 items of women’s clothing rule where the police who raided lesbian bars wld check to see how much these women were still upholding femininity. i have never been thru that but i remember reading it + how much it resonated w me. this rule has not been expelled from our cultures mentality… i remember telling a straight woman i was considering getting a buzzcut + the 1st thing she said was ‘oh, they look great w big hoop earrings.’ there’s like a sort of balancing act where for every item of men’s clothing u’ve got to do penance thru makeup + accessories……. + its got everything to do w reassuring the person viewing you, who might feel challenged by ur shirt or jacket or jeans + so needs to be able to look down n take comfort from the pair of heels on ur feet. saddest manifestation is definitely when we internalize it– when the fear of being marked not-woman makes us wear sth we hate, just for some tie 2 femininity. the more masculine the clothing, the thicker the makeup

Life is suffering. It is hard. The world is cursed. But still, you find reasons to keep living.
