me radiating feminine energy after a morning of connecting with my higher self✨✨✨
Lesbians have been disrupting gender norms, acting outside the gender binary, and identifying as gender non-conforming throughout history. If u have a problem with nonbinary lesbians or lesbians who use they/them pronouns u clearly have no concept of lesbian identity or history.
- It’s trans, not trans*
- It’s trans men and trans women, not transmen and transwomen—trans is an adjective that answers “what kind of men/women"—cis works the same way
- Never call trans men FTMs or trans women MTFs without their permission
- Trans is short for transgender, it’s not plural for anything—trans person and trans people are both correct
- Never use “born in the wrong body” or “used to be a boy and became a girl” or “biologically/genetically male/female”—all are just fancy ways to misgender someone (self identification with these phrases is different)
- Transgendered is wrong, so is “a transgender” and “transgenders”
- Being trans is not a sexuality nor is it a “sexual disorder” or any kind of disorder at all—gender identity disorder is not a real thing, and being trans isn’t a medical condition
- “Transsexual” is generally considered an offensive term and should never be used to describe someone without their permission
- Don’t refer to a trans person’s gender as their gender identity, it’s just their gender
- Similarly don’t refer to their pronouns as “preferred pronouns"—they’re not preferred, they’re mandatory
i literally cant believe that this election is so neck-and-neck
like????? trump has literally never held a political office in his life, he doesnt understand how the government works, he’s a terrible person, he literally does not know what he’s talking about on any issues, and he’s literally admitted to sexual assault and is currently at this moment facing charges of child rape. also none of his business ventures have actually been successful, while his whole campaign revolves around the concept that he is a good businessman.
meanwhile, hillary’s not perfect, but neither is obama??? or any president???????? any president we have is going to be inherently problematic, bc the presidency is a position of power within a fucked up capitalistic imperialistic system. but at least she’s fuckign qualified and educated on the topics she talks about and does genuinely want to do some good in the world.
like. i literally dont understand how a woman who is more qualified than possibly anyone else in the country is neck-and-neck with a racist orange reptile
when florida gets swallowed up by rising water levels because they’re electing a guy who believes climate change is a hoax maybe then these head asses will realize
a6:
even if hillary wins the elections the fact that trump has amassed this large of a following alone is a permanent and disgraceful reminder this country hates us
