Mfw My Art Doesn't Look Bad Anymore, Switched Account To My New One Xd

Mfw my art doesn't look bad anymore, switched account to my new one xd

Zombie Medic, based on that one Scream Fortress cosmetic. A day late.

Same as last post: "This is a positivity post, it’s not meant to invalidate others. If your experience of being trans differs from mine, that’s perfectly fine, you’re still trans. Please do not bring discourse on this post."

I decided to remake this post, because my artstyle has changed a lot, and because since then I've reached a few big milestones.

I've always wanted to die clean and pretty

GUYS GUESS WHAT? I got my hormone blocker prescription in the mail today, went to the pharmacy with my mom and they ordered the blockers for me! Let's fucking GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

This is a pretty good message, but tbh as a trans guy some of this is just straight up wrong.

"Cis guys tend to treat trans men as women. They just... do. Because they’re transphobic and shitty about it."

They don't tend to see me (a trans male) as a woman, if anything cis het guys have been the most supportive to me transitioning to male, alongside other trans men.

Also, I really REALLY wish people would stop saying "trans men don't have male privilege" because some of us do. Many don't that's important to talk about, but god damn it I hate being forgotten. People see me as the guy that I am. I get the same perks as other guys. Cis men in general don't tend to see me as anything less than what I am. Does that mean that I don't experience transmisandry? Heck no, of course I do! Because lgbt spaces hate me for being a guy and I still face transphobia, and because I'm the "wrong" kind of trans person (i.e. a trans man), I've left lgbt spaces entirely.

I don't speak for all trans men, I only speak for me, so some trans men should learn not to speak for me as well.

(Also, not meant to be mean to OP or come across as aggressive, my bad if it did, and and above statement isn't referring to OP since she is a girl)

(I wanna specify before anything else that I’m a trans woman, and that my intention here isn’t to talk over trans men, but rather to lend them my voice in bringing attention to an issue. I don’t speak for trans men.)

Just another reminder that if your queer spaces aren’t radically inclusive of trans men, those spaces fail as a queer space.

And this shouldn’t be a controversial statement.

What the hell have we been fighting for all this time if we’re not fighting for our whole community?

Some of y’all just wanna hate guys so damn much that you skip right over the nuances of why that’s maybe not great. Half of leftist spaces just took “guys make me uncomfortable and male privilege can make people act in really shitty ways” and turned it into “actually, men are scum, and that includes men that are marginalized. Hate is okay when it’s us doing it!”

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.

Trans. Guys. Don’t. Have. Male. Privilege.

Cis men aren’t gonna flock to excuse, like, everything a trans guy does, like they do for cis guys.

A lot of rhetoric STILL defines masculinity by inherently cis standards (and toxic masculine standards as well), in ways that will ALWAYS put trans guys at a disadvantage.

Cis guys tend to treat trans men as women. They just… do. Because they’re transphobic and shitty about it.

Trans guys ARE marginalized and do experience discrimination that’s an intersection of transphobia, and unique issues that only really apply to trans guys in that way.

That’s why the term ‘transandrophobia’ or ‘transmisandry’ is a term that’s important within the community. Just like we experience transmisogyny, trans guys experience transandrophobia/transmisandry and a lot of y’all just wanna ignore that to say “but I’m less privileged than you.”

Please, for once, stop trying to win this ridiculous game of most-oppressed-olympics. A future where we get equality for us by throwing trans guys to the wolves… that should horrify you. That’s the same exact thing cis gays and cis lesbians have been doing to the ENTIRE trans community for years. I’m real uncomfortable with how many of you were willing to mimic that behavior once you were on the other side of it.

We make it through as a community, as a FAMILY, or not at all.

ITS MY BIRTHDAY 2DAY LETS FUCKING GOOOOO YOUR BOY'S 16 NOW
