IT IS DIFFICULT TO BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF WHEN YOU MOST NEED IT BUT YOU DESERVE TENDERNESS. WHEN BIRDS RUN INTO WINDOWS YOU DON’T SCOFF ABOUT HOW THEY NEVER SAW IT COMING AND ROUGH THEM UP. YOU HOLD THEM CAREFULLY AND CHECK THEIR WINGS AND FEET AND LET THEM DECIDE WHEN THEY ARE READY TO FLY AGAIN
Patriarchy, however and whenever it happened, took women out of the community...

If I connect this to this quote, it’s so clear to me how the compassion and care-giving instincts women gain because of our assigned gender role struggle within our gender roles, that could fuel whole communities are taken and used for men...

trans men who say that cis women who id as lesbians are bound to be pieces of shit because of it is on the top of my list up against the wall when the rev comes i can guarantee you that much

The first time I turned a boys wrist into a rubrics cube his eyes flooded over into his polo T-shirt
power is always such a strange concept when no one expects you to have any.
as if i don’t know the language of surviving.

ciscritical-not-cisphobic:
I remember, as a kid, before I’d realized I could transition, thinking on more than one occasion, without any idea that I would belong in such a space, that it would be good to have a community somewhere that didn’t have any men.
I guess lesbian separatism is actually a really obvious concept if you think about it.

one of the worst most irritating things about depression is it makes you so much more upset, angry and seriously hurt by things that you would normally have little to no reaction to, and just brush off.
So much more so if your the type of person who just solidly buries and detaches all their hurts and pains and shame and insecurities— then the mountain of that wounds comes...

The Lethality of Loneliness
For the first time in history, we understand how isolation can ravage the body and brain. Now, what should we do about it?
Sometime in the late ’50s, Frieda Fromm-Reichmann sat down to write an essay about a subject that had been mostly overlooked by other psychoanalysts up to that point. Even Freud had only touched on it in passing. She was not sure, she...

fun fact: being a trans* man doesn’t mean you’re magically incapable of misogyny.
so why do 99% of misandry or male privilege posts i see always specify cis men
there’s a difference between male privilege and cis male privilege. trans* men do not enjoy all the privileges that cis men do. this doesn’t mean, however,...

Inside the cage, Fox was free.
Outside, she was caged.
The past month had plunged Fox back into depression, after she became the first openly transgender athlete inmixed martial arts and the most prominent in a professional sport since the tennis player Renée Richards in the 1970s. Fox did not control the timing of the revelation, which came in a Sports Illustrated...

Ok so I had this idea in a fit of rage of basically taking a bunch of my blog entries and mashing it up with a bunch of stuff a sweetie would contribute and making this weird kind of cut-up zine about what it’s like to be a trans lady and what I’m mad about but it’s hard...

lol - how i feel when i realize i am a transsexual in public: what object closest to me in this room would be a functional weapon? where is the exit? Where is a place to hide if something happens? how many men are in this room? are any of them staring at me?

Everyone is missing the biggest problem here.
Fuck the ads. Fuck the links. Fuck the email stuff.
Yahoo explicitly forbids pornography and sexually suggestive material on their websites and all affiliates.
That means no more porn on Tumblr.
