Trans Oppression
artemissian:
It is important to remember that trans people are not an isolated group of people, we are a multitude of diverse subgroups by definition.
Trans people experience partial privilege/oppression based on our subgrouping, saying categorically we are not oppressed is unmaintainable.
Are we oppressed because of being trans? It depends in part on our subgrouping, we are not all equally...

…no, it’s not odd if you are not female and you still like or prefer female-identifying characters. It’s not odd, it’s awesome.
Like what you like, love what you love, be who you want to be. There are always going to be people who are hung up on goofy nonsense and outdated gender politics. It’s their problem, not yours.
If you love Lara Croft more than Solid Snake, and you love...

*reading article about a cissexist teen pregnancy campaign that featured photomanips of teen boys being pregnant, which apparently originally referred to those images as “disturbing”*

“Daniel,” however, was an undercover cop with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department who ” hounded” the teenager to sell him his prescription medication. When he refused, the undercover...

bisexual-community:
Possibly the single most frustrating thing in the world is someone deciding how you feel about something for you. And if you are bisexual, it happens quite a bit.

I mean, that’s how all legitimate human rights activists have gotten shit done. Remember when Rosa Parks was denied a seat up front so she made rape threats to the driver and put his nudie pics all over the internet? If she hadn’t does...
