TRANS PEOPLE DON’T HATE OURSELVES
the transohobes love to argue that we make decisions about our bodies because ´we can’t accept / we dislike what we were given’. In reality, we just want to connect & belong. being trans is not about hating who we were, but about loving who we are. trans people don’t ‘hate ourselves’

IF SOMEONE HAS TWO SETS OF PRONOUNS, USE BOTH
being selective with the pronouns you use for a person, or just using one set you’re most comfortable with, shows a disregard for their gender identity / expression. if someone has multiple sets of pronouns, ask how they would like you to use them. if in doubt, use them all interchangeably – the same goesContinue reading “IF SOMEONE HAS TWO SETS OF PRONOUNS, USE BOTH”
for Knude Society – Battling dysphoria and connecting with your body sexually
The reality of living with dysphoria* is that connecting with your body, full stop, can be a real challenge. We often struggle to find parts of our bodies that we like or can relate with and as a result we can easily become separate from them and find it difficult to interact with them. Personally,Continue reading “for Knude Society – Battling dysphoria and connecting with your body sexually”

LET’S STOP ASSUMING PEOPLE’S PRONOUNS
being misgendered hurts on so many levels. by assuming someones pronouns, you are not only risking causing them distress, but also reinforcing the false idea that appearance = pronouns. It does not!! it’s a privilege not to have to worry about how someone will gender you, as a result of how they perceive your genderContinue reading “LET’S STOP ASSUMING PEOPLE’S PRONOUNS”

LETS STOP TELLING TRANS PEOPLE TO BE PATIENT
since I first remember questioning my gender identity, I’ve had to be patient. I’ve had to wait to connect with myself, to see myself, to BE myself. waiting & being patient is something we, as trans people, often have to do. we spend what feels like LIFETIMES being patient. & although intentions may not beContinue reading “LETS STOP TELLING TRANS PEOPLE TO BE PATIENT”
STOP CAPITALISING OFF OUR RAINBOW
Pride month is FAST approaching & I’m interested to see if any businesses have learned from their mistakes of the past years The amount of logos changed for a month, window displays lasting just for pride. It’s all performative & exploitative, if in reality nothing is being done to support & accommodate LGBTQ+ people. It’sContinue reading “STOP CAPITALISING OFF OUR RAINBOW”
