Become famous. I dont understand whats so confusing about that.

Absolutely. My entire friend group changed. I dont really like traditional masculinity and never did before I transitioned either, but I tried very hard to. After transitioning i had decided to stop living for other people and live for myself. So I made friends who I actually liked and relate to. I made friends who encouraged and supported me.

I wonder to what extent placebo would exist here.

And yet you are responding to it seriously.

This community has always allowed image content. I’ve never really considered changing that. I’m curious what folks have to say about it.

When I first made this community I made it because I frequently browsed r/mtf and could not find a community on Lemmy that really fit with that.

I feel really that this community has diverged in some important ways from that subreddit though, and one of those has been allowing images to be posted here. I didnt want this to be a text post only community because I felt that it was good for transfem and questioning folks to have a place to share anything they wanted to. Most of the rules revolve around this principle of protecting a safe space for transfem/questioning people. Some kinds of images are banned. But I hadn’t considered banning selfies in particular.

Tbh I’m not a fan of how youve chosen to word this. It comes across as weirdly antagonistic towards other folks here.

I also think that language is important and what’s being left out here is the context behind why other people are shutting you down. Patriarchy fucks with all our lives and the oppression of women as an assigned class to the advantage of men as an assigned class is real and worth discussing. But I think that how we talk about that does matter. And I can see how language could quickly devolve this subject away from the central point of class solidarity and liberation.

Trans women have as varied opinions as any class of people. Studies consistently show that trans people as a whole are strongly left leaning and pro minority rights. Not to say that misogyny doesnt exist in trans communities but it is not uniquely common in trans communities.

Please remove the link to that subreddit. That community violates the rules about not reposting bigoted content.

Who are you having your surgery done with? I’m hopeful to get gendered correctly on the phone at least once in my life time lmao

Ouuuu I haven’t tried this brand before. Exfoliation day is always my favorite haha

No stress! 😊

Does this work contain NSFW content? If so please edit the post so the NSFW toggle is checked. Otherwise, glad you found something you enjoyed so much. I like the art style.

Adore the overalls Ada, happy belated TDOV! 🩷 you are without a doubt one of my trans idols. Thank you for all the work you do creating and maintaining Blahaj Zone, and for co-moderating this community with me. 😊

Welcome to the Transfem community and congratulations on getting SRS! 🥰 I hope your recovery goes spectacularly and that you’re handling post-surgical care well! I had SRS over 2 years ago now and the first year of recovery was hard but SO worth it.

Hope youre having a great day! 😊

Trying hard to not be this person anymore but holy moly I say a lot of those things on a daily basis 😅

I’m happy you’ve come to this realization, it must feel nice to understand a bit more about yourselves in this way. This is absolutely a plural positive community. I hope you all feel welcome here. :)

Not to OP, as I think they described.

I am a lesbian and I really have no desire to gatekeep what labels someone uses to describe their sexuality. It’s up to other people to convey their preferred labels to me for the purposes of clear communication. But ultimately it doesn’t really affect me at all.

I think prioritizing the rigidity of definitions is the business of fascists. Words are not sacred. We should be the end all be all for the labels we use for our gender and sexuality, no one else should get to decide them for us.

If the term bi-lesbian has meaning to you, that’s alright. I’m glad you’ve found a label that feels right to you.

The same equally goes for you. The state claims your complicity in its actions, they say they represent the American people as they slaughter innocent children around the world. The state says that you support them, that you have entrusted your power with them, that they use to evict families from their homes and take toddlers from their mothers, and send innocent people to rot in detention centers. They say this every day, claim your active support and endorsement, and yet you’ve never raised a fist, you won’t even raise your voice.

I’m doing what I can. Its time for you to smash the ballot counting tables. No vote cast will save you, it only ever delayed the inevitable for everyone but wealthy white families. They want you to see politicians as representing you. They don’t. They want you to see the police as protecting you, they don’t. They want you to cast your ballot so they can claim your approval. The American people voted for Biden, he claimed to represent the American people while committing crimes against humanity against the Palestinian people. He claimed your vote showed your approval. Did you do anything then? Are you going to do anything now? Every day that you accept this system is another day that you uphold it.

Just a reminder that liberals will never be on the side of the revolution. They’re always going to say that voting for them is what matters. It’s all a sham to prevent you from actually doing anything.
