Reblog If You Love Saying "that's Kinda Gay" Whenever You See Objectively Gay Things Happening

like if you’re reblogging shit like this you’re obviously a transmisogynist. this is such an obvious gamergate level strawman. even if the person holding this value actually exists (& i don’t doubt this is a misrepresentation) it would be pretty easy to ignore them instead of saying something on the level of, “look how far the trans community has fallen, trans women used to be ACTIVISTS and now all they are is annoying bitches”. It’s the exact same joke as when antifeminists argue that the feminists of old had REAL things to argue about — like employment! and voting! — but now they all just complain about people sitting funny on the bus. It’s a blatantly sexist & antifeminist strawman.

and to top this all off, it's tagged as "transandrophobia". like we're apparently supposed to laugh at the (probably fictional) trans girl being shit-talked in the original post, but simultaneously meant to consider "being told you can't have a blahaj because that's trans girl culture" as a serious example of bigotry against trans men? that's a pretty obvious double standard!

Trans girls, in my experience, have largely lived an existence in which for the vast majority of our lives, we've never been anybody's first choice romantically. That's if we're chosen at all.

Second choice? Yeah. Back up plan? Happens. Fetishized? Always.

But never just chosen. Never just pursued. Never loved quite as much as we need. Never the object of obsession. Never the focus of passion.

Every love feels like it's one better option disappearing like a vapor in the wind.

So I say all that to say, if you're romantically inclined, and you love a trans girl. Choose her. Really choose her. Choose her in every moment. Make her feel like she's the only one that matters and do it every day, because it's possible, likely even, that she's never felt that before.

Really choose her, or you will break her heart.

If you're not willing to do that, leave her the fuck alone.

You’re not depressed. You just need $250,000 in your bank account.

"self-reliant" as a synonym for "independent" is a lot funnier when you're a plural system

Neglected children will sometimes go ‘okay time to dangerously deteriorate to see if anyone cares about me’ and then if nobody does, they don’t know how to stop deteriorating on their own, they’ll need help to pick themselves back up.

 And if that help doesn’t arrive, they’ll conclude ‘I was right to destroy myself in a world where nobody cares for me anyway, why should I live at all’ and it sets them on a miserable life path where all they see is chances for self destruction and proof of nobody caring, and from the very start it’s not their fault at all.

Because someone should notice when a kid starts losing themselves and step up and help. Children are not meant to know how to take care of themselves in an environment where they’re neglected, ignored and uncared for. Putting them in such an environment then blaming them for deteriorating is absolutely ridiculous. It takes paying attention and realizing when something is wrong and pulling a kid out of the black hole they’re falling into, before they can no longer crawl their way out on their own. 

It’s not acceptable to let children deal with abandonment and neglect all on their own, and expect them to not grow up miserable, resentful, struggling, and doing harm to themselves. It’s the same harm we never stopped them from doing when they were kids, when they needed to know that someone would care if they’re hurt. If we want functional and healthy adults in the society, we have to notice what is going on with the kids and make sure they’re helped in time.
