Avewy - Tumblr Posts
I think this whole *situation* is particularly difficult for me because last year I was written up at work for "threatening behavior" after an argument with a cis coworker (a man who stood a head taller than me)
My transmisogynistic boss wrote me up 3 months after the argument, claiming I was waving a hammer around and threatening my coworkers, entirely without evidence.
I appealed it, begging the manager I was meeting with to allow me to transfer departments. He made me wait 6 months, during which I suffered constant microaggressions from my boss.
Powerful men love to fabricate terror from us scary transfems because they know if they damage our reputation they can rip away what little safety we've managed to create for ourselves. I didn't quite believe it until I was made to.
You know what, fuck it. If transfems can get banned for posting nonsexual timelines, I'll gladly go down hand in hand with my sisters. Here's 2019, 6 months before my egg cracked, to 2024, happily on Estrogen for a year and a half. I stand proudly with my community on this.
I don't normally make "political" art like this, but after recent events I felt I had to say something
Tumblr has been a home to queer people for years. It was the last place we felt safe online. If you attack trans women, you attack all of us, and if the tumblr polls are to be trusted, about 90% of your clientele will leave and never return. Pick your fucking battles Matt. Justice for predestrogen.
