Hi all,
My work pace and income have slowed down a LOT because of my depression, and I'm worried about making ends meet through the summer while BG is out of work. Any help getting through that would mean a lot to us. Thank you all so much!

I don’t get how it’s not clear from watching that the emphasis of drag is the artistry of the costuming and the performance.
Drag is an effeminacy practice. Yes it’s about making a display of the effeminacy but it’s also about the associated pageantry

Especially when the “critics” describe drag shows as “people laughing at the idea of a man dressing as a woman” like I’m sorry you don’t know shit lmao

Got called an “ex-gay boy”, and my pronouns put in quotation marks because of this position.
Nothing will convince me that resentment towards drag is somehow a necessary component of transfeminism

It's genuinely kind of depressing how much of everything about our culture and the present political moment can draw its roots back to masculinity being fragile 😕

In everyday life with ordinary people on the street or in the home, “hyper-gay” is still the standard classical perception and straight men still have a lot of anxiety about whether attraction to trans women makes THEM gay, and therefore less fully male.

There can be a lot of emphasis on the heteronormativity of transition care standards, like doctors insisting on conforming to heterosexual norms for trans people, but we shouldn’t make the mistake of acting like that context is universal or the most critical situation for trans people’s lives.

This is why it makes no sense to try and explain straight trans women’s lives and choices strictly through heteronormativity—our whole lives are in context to the homophobia embedded in the kind of sexism we experience.

I need to share the longer article soon but this perception is very much my own experience.
And it’s exactly what I mean about transhet sexuality being seen as hyper-gay and how it amplifies homophobia when you don’t pass.

These “I top men because I’m a misandrist” jokes are as funny as “trans inclusive misogyny”. They point to a contradiction that doesn’t exist

And of course, if you love your dick, all power to you. Just don’t spin a narrative of radicalism around that because that’s the entirety of appeal to chasers.

Penetration-as-power in patriarchy is valid upon first approximation, but honestly you need to add some layers when it comes to trans women

“Patriarchy is afraid of me because I’m a trans woman who LOVES her penis” sure jan, that’s why bottom surgery is expected of trans women and all the trans porn exclusively features trans women with neovaginas

One of those jokes that needs to be retired is the general idea that trans women topping men is somehow any reversal of the patriarchal expectations and power dynamics when that’s what 80% of cis men approaching us want and assume we’ll do by default.

The straight thing yeah cuz cishets are derogatory but if you as a queer person with a unidirectional attraction are believing and also perpetuating the idea that bisexuality is more proximal to Heterosexuality™️ than queerness becuz you focus on the different gender attraction bit, that does give-
Not to me; to me all women are lesbians until they directly state otherwise, because lesbianism is beautiful. (If you don't like this joke, consider why you think so, and also consider why its more popular to look at "all people are straight" and say "well all people are a little bi")
and like, it’s easy right? it’s difficult to prove a negative. heterosexuality is the default. so if a character ends up with or has a tragic relationship with a woman in a piece of media (but nothing with men) it’s much, much, much safer to call her bisexual.
even negative interactions with men…

lesbian frotting. gay guys calling themselves butch again. everyone has carabiners. straight sex no longer has a meaningful definition. this is the future we can have if we exercise the courage required.
"can a (cis) man and woman ever have queer sex?" we're asking the wrong questions, here, people. we need to start asking ourselves whether or not gay men can do yuri and lesbians can do yaoi. that's the future.
