Reblog if your blog is a trans safe space

Hello I would just like to say if you are transmasc and you use neopronouns you are literally so sexy and smart. Imagining being able to know yourself so well that you had to go out and find pronouns that matched you perfectly. Keep it up king.

Idk what trans man needs to hear this but you're NOT evil or disgusting for being a man. You do NOT have to suffer for the sins of the patriarchy committed by cis dudes. Being a man doesn't invalidate the misogyny you experienced growing up or experience now. Being a man doesn't mean you deserve to be isolated. Being a man doesn't mean you're inherently predatory or scary. You didn't "choose" this, and finding your true self is NOT "betraying the community" because you happen to be a man and/or masculine rather than a woman and/or feminine. You ARE allowed to be upset when people "affirm" your gender by malgendering you.

You DO deserve a community that uplifts you. You DO deserve to experience trans joy. You DO deserve to have your voices heard and your struggles recognized. Wanting the bare minimum of solidarity is NOT "making everything about trans men".

I wasn't thinking I'd need to blaze this, Tumblr, but I need your help with gathering resources for questions to be answered during a family crisis.

Recently, I publicly came out as transgender and my sisters are having a rough time trying to process it. For context, the three of us (all in our 30s) were raised Catholic and I started coming to terms with my being transgender in 2007, only wholly accepting the label in 2019. I had been in the closet wrt family with the sole exception of my father. I wasn't sure why, but I was most comfortable telling him that I was struggling with my gender identity.

I found out why in 2021 when I realized he was ordering and wearing clothing and accessories from the women's section and had pierced ears and regularly got French manicures.

My own coming out may have unintentionally helped kick start a crisis for my sisters, and my brother-in-law informed me that my sisters suspect that our dad is also transgender.

My brother-in-law has already voiced support as well as an apology in advance if he gets my pronouns wrong (I already assured him that I'd rather be patient than mean). He also communicated with me that I had the support of my father and my sisters, but that they weren't sure how to process all of this on an emotional level.

This is where y'all come in.

I'm looking for books and articles and podcasts that would best help cisgender adult allies understand the struggles of being transgender, ways that cis folks can help, and especially how to come to terms with having a transgender family member.

I appreciate any help I can get and I cede the floor to my fellow chaos gremlins that haunt this site.

This is for aromantic users only. Only answer if you are aromantic or somewhere on the aromantic spectrum.

Help a disabled woman from becoming homeless!

**URGENT: PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST**

Monday, May 15th: Hello everyone, I’m Gemma, a bi, mentally ill, and disabled woman in desperate need of help, as I'm still struggling to pay my rent which is two weeks overdue.

As most of you are already aware from my previous posts, I have been struggling financially these past few years due to Covid-19 and my welfare benefit (Universal Credit) being under continuous reviews, which is due to my worsening mental/physical health and the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. And after a lengthy health assessment, I have been declared not to be fit for work, however, I am still waiting for the outcome of my Adult Disability application, which I applied for back in January.

To be quite honest, these past few months have been absolute hell for me, and with no other income, I've been relying on the kindness of others to get by. However, due to my outstanding debt, my benefit last month was taken and I wasn't able to pay my rent or utilities, and the funds that I received to pay off everything were recently taken by more overdue bills and fees. (I missed a council tax payment and was charged for the full years amount.)

If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would save my life, and sharing definitely helps just as much. Thank you so much for all your help!! ❤

£0/£250!!

My dear lgbt+ kids, 

Did you know „conversion therapy“ is still not banned in most European countries? 

Conversion therapy describes cruel, abusive  attempts to force someone to change their sexual orientation or gender identity. It has been proven to not only not work but also cause lasting damage and trauma and greatly increase suicide risks. The United Nations has qualified it as what it is: torture.

This official petition is calling on the European Commission to do three important things:

Ban conversion practices across the EU – by proposing a new law or strengthening existing ones.

Protect victims – by updating victim rights laws so survivors get the support they deserve.

Make sure all EU countries act – either by introducing a ban or improving weak laws.

SIGN THE PETITION HERE 

They need 1 million signatures from EU citizens by tomorrow (May 17, 2025) to make the EU act. This is not just a symbolic number! If they reach that number, the European Commission is legally required to respond and consider turning it into law.

At the time of writing this, they have reached 915,945 signatures. 

If you’re from Europe, please consider signing (it’s easy and safe). If you’re not from Europe, please consider sharing! 

With all my love, 

Your Tumblr Dad 

Make yourselves at home
