being a therian absolutely wrecks your ability to flirt. what do you mean “putting my head on your lap so you can pet me” doesn’t work on most people? why the fuck not

I think this is my first post to break 100. Clearly many of us have issues.

tiktok bitches love to talk about kinda awkward poly situations where things weren't adequately communicated and end it with like "obviously I'm monogamous now 🤣" as though polyamory was the problem there

true polysluts will go through the personal relationship equivalent of 9/11 and still come out of it wanting to love and fuck multiple people like the freaks they are

how about "girl". how about "hey, girl". If you know someone is a girl you don't have to use "gender neutral" language for her. In fact, if you choose to exclusively use "gender neutral" language for a trans woman, you are still misgendering her.

Okay because it seems unclear; this conversation is a plea for basic respect, not an opportunity for you to list off all the fun zany nicknames you call people

how are so many people so bad at this. you're reblogging a post about basic transfeminism 101, would it kill you to not lace your post with the exclamatory 'man' or use 'transwomen' or talk over trans women about what they'll find acceptable, or just admitting that you casually will misgender trans women until specifically asked to stop

if you're reblogging this post to say how you still call everybody dude but it's okay if they ask you to stop you will :)

then you are not actually putting in the effort to make your transfem friends comfortable. you can't take for granted that everybody will be able to ask -- if you're not transfem you need to recognize that there's a power dynamic at play that means we are not necessarily safe to ask you to stop misgendering us. and you'll sit here performatively reblogging something, and get the satisfaction of knowing you're a good little transfeminist -- while not putting in any of the work at all. think about what you're saying.

“What if by feeling and expressing my emotions I was actually being manipulative” - the transfem motto

the emotional clusterfuck of growing up as a neglected “boy” and then figuring out how to navigate life as the kind of woman nobody likes kinda sucks ass

The transfem hellscape of never knowing when it's ok to express your feelings and when it's not and of never quite knowing how long you'll be loved for, is the most painful thing I've ever experienced in my life.

i feel like i'm speaking a different language whenever i try to talk about jkr to anyone who isn't a trans person in the uk. americans imagine if every time someone tried to talk about donald trump a million home alone fans started talking about how they felt bad for macauley culkin but they were doing activism by drawing fanart of the burglars having gay sex. also they understand some of the problematic aspects of home alone and try to divorce their enjoyment of the films from trump's presence but they would appreciate permission from you to continue watching them. then every time you try to steer the conversation away from home alone to what he's currently doing in the present day they get confused and keep bringing it up.
