Trans Women Are Women. The UK Supreme Court Made That Clear Today.

“it’s going to help you more if you take a break from relationships and focus on yourself.”

no. this will never help me. i love loving. i love being in love. i love an emotional connection. i love romantics. i love spoiling my partner. i love the simple happiness that comes from a romantic relationship. i do not feel good if i cannot love. if i cannot express love. if i cannot spoil someone. all forms of love make me who i am, but romantic love is personal and is only for me. you are for me to love, for me to spoil, and only for me to know.

(i love my partner)

i wish i was the fucking oxygen your body needs. take me first, before anything, i am what you need

I wish more people were outraged about this. More people should be. In the span of what? A month? Netflix has not only cancelled Dead Boy Detectives, an incredible show with great acting, writing, film quality, etc... and characters that are queer, but they've announced a "modern retelling" of The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, you know, the book that was so gay it was used as evidence in the author's sodomy trial, and they have chosen to make Basil and Dorian Gray siblings. I have seen so little talk about it, because people are feeling exhausted and defeated, but you know what? Exhausted silence only sends the message to this bloody company that they can continue to do this type of shit and nothing bad will come of it because people don't care enough to fight back. What choice do we have but to fight? We have to fight and show people that we won't tolerate this kind of thing. Dead Boy Detectives was a brilliant show, and this isn't the first time such an incident has happened. Dorian Gray does not deserve this atrocious "modern retelling". I am sick of being met with silence and really, it's overdue that we let these companies know how exactly they can fuck off. I so desperately want to see given to these works the same treatment that people gave to OFMD when it got cancelled. No one else is going to do it for you. Not enough people realise how strong their individual voice can be if they stand up and shout it out. Let's show these companies what fucking happens when they pull these kinds of stunts. Every action has a consequence.

(yes I'm aware the sad dark-haired boys applies to lestat too)

is it bad that ships like thorki don’t bother me? like if the siblings or family aren’t actually related, it doesn’t bother me? sure it’s still a bit of a weird dynamic but they aren’t actually related so im not losing my shit over it?

Texas’ HB 3399 bill will kill people if it passes. It will make hormone therapy illegal. For all ages. Period. This was never about women’s sports. It was never about bathrooms. It was never about “protecting the children”. They want us dead. If you’re a fellow trans person and you live in Texas, I strongly urge you to be ready to move somewhere safer.

EDIT: For updates, check the #HB 3399 tag. It’s hardly being used by anyone else.
