heres a thought most people dont consider: i was in too much pain for way too long to not love myself now.
im highkey fucking tired of all the truscum caricatures of “fakers” looking exactly like me so i doodled myself in my favorite outfit and included some insights abt myself. if other people wanted to do smthn similar for whatever reason i encourage them bc this ^ is not synonymous with “attention seeking trans people fetishizing faker”
also btw those are bra straps not binder straps because i only bind on formal occasions
“this art of drawing a male character as a trans woman is not genderbending!”
you literally changed the gender of the character. it is genderbending. taking a male character and making them a trans woman is genderbending. same with taking a female character and making them a trans man. it. is. still. genderbending.
Hello everyone! This is resource I wanted to tell you all about! It’s an app called “Voice Pitch Analyzer”. It has you read a passage a full minute, and then tells you if the range may be perceived as more masculine, feminine, or androgynous. (Disclaimer: Obviously peoples voices vary from person to person. There are women with very low voices and men with very high ones. This does not mean they aren’t “real” men and women. This is simply a post for those with voice dysphoria or who would just like to sound more masculine, feminine, or androgynous to those around them). Please don’t be discouraged if you voice does not land in the range you want it to! It takes practice, and practice is just what this app is for. It allows you to practice speaking in the range you want to be percieved as. Admittedly, it can be a little disheartening having to strain my voice just to get in the upper androgynous range, so a major dysphoria trigger warning to anyone considering downloading it, but, with practice I am getting better and able to talk in that low voice for longer periods of time.
Signal boosting! Please reblog to help others!
Please reblog this, even if you are cis! This app could help so many trans people, and I would like for it to become as well known as Refugee Restrooms!!
stop asking people’s pronouns. real life isnt the internet. asking someone’s pronouns in real life with people around is fucking degrading. we all know you wouldnt ask a cis person’s pronouns. when you ask, a trans person hears “i’m not sure if you’re actually the gender you’re presenting as. do you mind if i embarrass you and get really invasive on a personal level?” not to mention you might out the person youre asking to whoever else is around.
if youre really fucking lost, ask their name, or just guess by by how they present. the worst that can happen is you get corrected and you can be respectful about it. these are basic social conventions that should be left unsaid.
in conclusion, trans people are regular people and you should treat us normally. thanks for coming to my ted talk.
