Ignoring genitals for a moment, my dmab husband has wider hips than his dfab sister. A cis male friend of mine has larger breasts than my mother. Another cis male friend of mine has more ‘feminine’ arms and a more ‘feminine’ voice than I do. And I know several cis females with a more ‘masculine’ jawline than my cis father, including one who has the same level of facial hair...

So, for a while I’ve been looking into paganism but not into anything in particular.
Talking about this with trans-terrific, I mentioned that I felt a weird personal resonance reading about Persephone, even though I didn’t, at the time, think I had much in common with Her. After more conversation (with both trans-terrific and widdershinsgirl) it turns out I have a fair bit more in...

Just to tie into the last thing I had to say about letting transphobic cis queers run our political/legal battles:
let’s not forget that Equality MARYLAND is the same organization that put up a supposed trans rights bill that was almost entirely gutted of offering any real protections around trans folks right to ACCESS TO PUBLIC FACILITIES.

One Day
genderbitch:
A boy met a girl.
She seemed very familiar,
not to the point of being strange or creepy.
She did like to stare at him,
Which he found a bit odd.
But it wasn’t a serious problem.
The boy spoke to the girl.
“You’ve been watching me for a while now.”
She smiled and nodded,
“of course. For a very long time.”
He shrugged, pondered and moved on.
The boy enjoyed the company of...

Not like their repeated erasure and often violent reactions towards trans folks ‘for the greater good’ has anything to do with it. No sirree! Must be all that male privilege I apparently have as a read-as-female genderqueer messing with my head.

I need feminism
To take out its fucking trash. There is NO REASON why an aggressive cyberstalker who makes a hobby of outing and harassing trans women should be anything but shunned and shouted down at every turn.

It is very hard not to think of what Cathy Brennan is currently doing to me as “hunting down for the kill.” She is systematically infringing on all of my online spaces, falsely attacking me as a liar and spreading my photo around. I am not a liar. Cathy Brennan, however, is exploiting her privilege heavily as an attorney to attack, harm and intimidate me.
Being trans is neither rare nor a disorder.

(yes, yes, Bilerico).
Seriously, when a condition affects at least .25% of the population, you really cannot call it “rare”.

swollenandhalo:
I find it kind of offensive when someone will be into me and for whatever reason proclaims me to be “the best of both worlds.” I’m not.
Despite my looks, background, past, or present body parts, I don’t feel male. Proclaiming that I could be the best of male and female thus implies that there are a great number of male parts. The very parts I don’t want to acknowledge or don’t...

Intersectionality is a simple yet profoundly important concept which was developed by feminist women of color in response to the second wave feminist movement’s refusal to address issues beyond the needs of upper-class white women. It posits that civil rights / social justice movements cannot focus exclusively on any single form of discrimination because oppression is not...
