  • I already commented but more i just thought of

    • Sex is not a binary, no one is the ‘perfect’ ‘biological male/female’ its a graph with two like, clusters of stuff that gather around little hills like flowers, most of them want full, bright sun but some of them fall in the middle where the cool, shades or partially sunny areas are (have many characteristics of ‘both’ sexes, are intersex) and pretending that it is a perfect binary excludes intersex people and also seems to fuck over disabled ppl in a lot of instances
    • gender is a colonial construct and systemic oppression of trans/queer ppls is inherently linked to racism and colonialism, because it’s presenting the specific social hierarchies and systems of colonizers to be Superior and Right and Good
    • trans people come in all shapes and sizes. You do not know the gender or even the sex of someone by looking at them. I am beaming this one directly into my aunt’s head because she still tries to sus out the AGAB of my trans friends.
    • there are trans people in every country in the world. do NOT think that because e.g. Peru is in south america has very spanish catholic-y culture and is somewhat homophobic and transphobic, that there aren’t queers in Peru fighting against that oppression. We are everywhere, and we have always been here.

  • the fact that just because i don’t “look” like a trans person doesn’t mean I’m not one. Like, yeah, i’m genderfluid/genderqueer in the cool xenogender way and if i got to control my outward appearance i would literally be a decomposing log, but that’s not possible so i will settle for a brown turtleneck and funky earrings. Also, I use any pronouns, you literally cannot get it wrong even if you’re trying to? you do not need to correct when you say “she”
