My gender is that I’m a boy but I’m also not a boy while still not not being a boy. I have the range, darling

Cis people think nonbinary genders are like “both” or “neither” and they can be but personally I’m unlocking the Secret Genders, such as

• Not not male
• None gender with left boy
• Spock
• Biblically accurate angels
• Homosexual

I am all of these

Not shaving and not wearing make up are literally nonbehaviors. They’re a complete lack of action. But doing nothing is considered masculine because women are not allowed to just be. this goes double for trans women.

reblog this version because transmisogynists don’t know how to fuck off.

Shinjuku Boys (1995). Tatsu, a transgender man, jokes with his barber about his changing appearance, and his newly masculine features.

TRANSCRIPT:

BARBER: So you go regularly to the hospital for your hormone injection?
TATSU: [nods]
BARBER: Does it hurt?
TATSU: Not at all.
BARBER: You have more facial hair. It must be the hormones. You’ll get a moustache soon.
TATSU: I’ll look distinguished! They’ve made quite the difference. I never thought I’d change so much. Most customers say I’m like a man.
BARBER: Really?
TATSU: [laughing] They say, “You look like a man. You’re not cute.”
BARBER: [laughs]

END TRANSCRIPT.

I love seeing this, because I’ve looked for many things about trans guys in Japan (in trying to understand how Japan views transgender people on the whole) and other than a few recent things, everything was exclusively about trans women.

@colorsofsocialjustice Hey, I highly recommend checking out this series too:

It’s absolutely massive, utterly beautiful, and deserves more attention.

If there’s anything I want anyone to know about bisexual and nonbinary identities, it is that ambiguity is good. We don’t need the exact nuances of our identities to be encapsulated within the label we choose. If you take a hundred nonbinary people or a hundred bi people, they are going to have as many differences as they do similarities and that isnt a flaw: it’s a strength. The diversity within our communities is amazing and it is amazing that a label can remain useful for so many people despite how different we all are.

trans guy 1: dude how did you grow an adam’s apple

trans guy 2: sheer force of will

this was from my freshman year of college, shortly after I came out, when someone sent me to hang out with these two (somehwat) older trans guys to show me that it was gonna be okay

one of them told me about how he got his gender marker changed before it was technically allowed. what he did was he waited until he grew a beard, and then he walked into the dmv and pointed at the f on his liscense and said “there’s been a mistake” and they were like “oh sorry about that sir”

now lets admire one of my favorite quotes about TRANSNESS

art by @erin-nations

[id: a drawing of a person with short brown hair wearing a jean jacket and red shirt next to the quote “I never really related to the theory that being trans meant my body didn’t match my brain. I feel like this is a handy narrative that puts all of the pressure and responsibility for change onto trans people and off of the rest of society… my day-to-day struggles are not so much between me and my body. I am not trapped in the wrong body; I am trapped in a world that makes very little space for bodies like mine. — Ivan Coyote (Tomboy Survival Guide)”]
