For the idiots like me who had to google it: HRT increases the risk of gout.
I was over here like “what, did you fuck someone with your big toe?”
Great… Another year of me being completely oblivious and unable to tell people what year it is.
I think I have something akin to face blindness but for gender. Not too long ago I was in a groomsmen for my buddy and his sister was one of the bridesmaids. Im told she was trans, but I had no idea, and he ended up making fun of me for not being aware of it.
Like what do you people want from me? She was in a pretty dress, how am I supposed to know?
My super power… Being to dumb to not be an ally.
All gender affirmation will be supported via my innate ability of being an oaf.
You want 2026 to fuck me?!?
TBF, that’s only 2 trans women, but still.
I never know if I’m doing enough for trans people. I like to think of my stance towards trans folk as “benevolent indifference.” That is - I don’t care even the smallest bit if someone is trans. They’re a person, and that’s all that’s needed for my respect.
But I also recognize that that position isn’t always enough. It’s like when people said “All Lives Matter” in response to the BLM movement. Yes, all lives do matter, and my goal for society would be one where “All lives matter” is the only stance you need, but we don’t live in that world and sometimes we have to focus on protecting specific groups.
But, as a white, male, cisgenger christian I also don’t want to fall into a “white savior” leadership mentality, so I never know how loudly to speak out on behalf of groups I’m not a part of.
Benevolent indifference is fine for the most part under normal circumstances… But like there’s a lot of things happening where the democratic process is getting actively weaponized against us trans folks. That democratic process depends on numbers and advocacy that directs your representatives to stop creating new pressures and restrictions on trans people is something where the numbers are sorely lacking and trans folk are generally tasked with just educating people they are essentially screaming into the void for help with actually writing to godsdamned representatives.
Like “white savior” stuff is a problem when you swoop in and try and protect someone as an individual. You can call your representative and get a trans high five for free because its not condescension or annoying. It’s just plain help for a lot of us who feel sorely left behind by a process that doesn’t do the greatest job of protecting minorities.
Not sure what that means.
You don’t get a free pass to be gross if it’s obviously not connecting with people no matter your gender or identity. You have a right to tell anyone that you don’t want to be around it. It’s fine to be frustrated with someone when they’re being dense.
