#but also from her perspective As A Woman

[theygender]

Does anyone have any good book recommendations that talk about transmisogyny in a way that would be entry level to like. A 50 year old cis lesbian

#especially ones that talk about the ways that our society primes even trans allies to view trans women in a negative light #my mom is trying but i think she could use some help understanding in a way that i dont think i could just talk her through #she seems to think my gf is more like standoffish than she actually is and she thinks my gf is being rude when shes emotional about smth #and im talking her through it from the perspective of like #'as a human being and as someone who is all too familiar with homophobia please understand what this is like from her perspective' #but i feel like. theres some unconscious transmisogyny going on here and i really wish my mom could understand that #but i dont think shes ever even heard of transmisogyny before. she has no context #i cant try and talk her through it from that perspective bc she would need a lot of background to understand what im saying #and i dont think trying to explain transmisogyny theory in the middle of an argument would be helpful #if i could recommend her a good book under the context that it would help her understand me and my gf as trans people #and if she read through it and took the time to understand it which i do believe she would #i feel like it might help her to kind of analyze if the thoughts shes having are influenced by transmisogyny and start unpacking that #and also importantly i feel like she could look at what my gf is going through not just from the human and lgbt perspective im asking her to #but also from her perspective As A Woman #bc i feel like theres a missing piece there right now. my mom supports us and respects my gfs gender #but i dont think shes looking at these situations in context As A Fellow Woman #idk #rambling

When it comes to Penelope I feel like a lot of her fans take any valid criticism towards her and turn it into hate, which does her character a disservice. While some people do hate on her, a lot of it holds valid reasons. Admitting that she has hurt many people isn't wrong because she has, it's been shown on throughout the show and the impacts it can have. From labeling Daphne as "unmarriageable" during her first season and events that followed, her labeling Eloise as being part of a group of rebels, the terms she used to describe Kate [and Simon]-- which carried racial undertones no matter how you try to spin it, who didn't even know personally at that point, what she did Marina. All of these were very harmful and to say that none of these characters should feel angry, that they should just forgive Penelope without any work put into it is very laughable (especially because she's still writing as Whistledown and put many, namely women, at risk during a time where reputation is everything--something in which Penelope herself faces). With this being said, criticizing her actions, at least for me, doesn't come from a complete place of hate but more so from believing that she can be better if she puts in the work. By ignoring all that she's done and having her get her happily ever after so easily in the end, to be honest, would ultimately feel lackluster. I feel like she still has room to grow, but it will take a lot of work and, I personally, think seeing her renavigate who she is with who she wants to be outside of Lady Whistledown would be very interesting.

#bridgerton #penelope featherington #idk if this counts as anti but I'll label it as such too #anti penelope featherington #bc some people don't see it her referring to kate as a “beast” was wrong as hell and definitely side eye worthy coming from this yte woman #like she didn't even know kate and wrote that about her #and her ableist comments towards george were absolutely unnecessary as well #so deny that none of these things holds impact would be highly untrue and make the story very flat #i do think pen provides valuable insight to a different perspective of the ton and was helpful in eloise seeing a different view #so that's one [of very few] reasons that i think she should have a chance of redeeming herself #but that also doesn't mean that any of these characters should forgive her either #penelope stans and/or polin stans do not interact if you can't be respectful! #(also bc some people like to say “but the bridgertons are privileged and got their happy endings” #one just bc they got their happy endings in the end doesn't mean that what pen wrote didn't put them in difficult situations or that she #should be thanked as if she helped them [with daphne that was mainly her and her own mother's doing] #[for eloise that different bc it puts her and her family under political scrutiny as well bc do you honestly think being labeled as associat #-ing with rebels would be a good thing?]

Listen I know everyone is up in arms over "how dare Liliana say 'there are children here' to the daughter she abandoned."

And I get it.

But man.. this woman ran away from her own kid when she was barely an adult herself. Twenty odd years of wandering and she's now carved out a position of power for herself in the hopes of mitigating the harm caused by her colleagues. She takes care of the kids that follow that relentless pull and find their way to the Vanguard because maybe they never had anyone to tell them to run. And maybe she sees Imogen a little in every single one of them and wonders who she could've been, who she is.

And then that daughter pulls her from sleep and says "Maybe it's your turn to run."

#cr spoilers #critical role spoilers #again liliana tell me your secrets your motivations give me ANSWERS #i mean this is a step and the closest you've got but i need more dammit #also calling it now matt didn't have imogen roll a persuasion check during that conversation because that strike team aint coming back alive #cause ya know PLOT maybe idk #liliana temult #the woman that you are #also i'll clarify i am not endorsing her actions #i just find it fascinating that she believes she's doing what's best here and it's fun to try and view it from her perspective #i just adore the tragedy of it all

Sometimes I do feel bad for taking Zuko and Mako away from the bi community in my headcanons but their own feelings about their heritage/element/identity reflects so perfect w a journey of internalized homophobia to self-acceptance and self-love and I just CANT resist playing in that space…

Also Sokka and Asami are perfectly amazing examples of bi rep so

#tbh and I know I’ll get shit for it but I DO HC korra as a lesbian too bc like she was also so sheltered and shut off from the world #for most of her life and so it is so beautiful from a storytelling perspective for her to also be shut off from her identity as a gay woman #???? idk #like tbh makorra gives me the same comp4comp vibes as Zuko/mai lol #text #tlok #atla

ch. 446

#konan #i think konan's silence during the whole exchange is very interesting to me #but also really frustrating like. look at her. she isn't indifferent while she listens to the story of the fall of her 2 only friends #we just know that she is quiet because kishi just didn't know how to handle her and just had her be nagato's cheerleader #but also we see that she wanted to just end things right there by killing naruto. she is really someone who doesn't speaks up more- #than she believes is enough. and she is certainly not the kind to just overshare her life and feelings. not even once we see her- #doing that. the only thing she mentions to naruto was that the tendo was yahiko's body and that nagato was the only one who kept her- #from leaving akatsuki. we never see the history from her own perspective only from nagato's and what we know of her are memories #ugh!!! i love konan but her writing frustrates me so much!! she is such an interesting woman who isn't swayed by emotions #and goes straight to the point and has the most unique jutsu but!!!!!! #alas!!! she is from a popular shonen series whose purpose is to hype up nagato!! she gets CRUMBS

[cherry-treelane]

this is extremely important to me it means so much....if u get it u get it and if u don't u dont.... (fics are all from the wonderful mother_of_houseplants btw shes amazing and so is her writing which is evident in these screenshots)

#THERES JUST SOMETHING THAT HITS ABOUT THEM SEEING THE WOMAN WHO GAVE UP HER LIFE TO RAISE THEM AS BEAUTIFUL #like because to them she is one of the most. her tenderness and warmth and care and love for them as if theyre her own make her beautiful #amongst other things #its like when people who actually have a good relationship w their mothers say that their mom is the most beautiful woman in the world #thats exactly what this is giving and im all for it #this is the woman that read bedtime stories to them and wiped their tears and cooked their favourite meals #its from such a wholesome perspective too since theyre her brothers/kids like when they think of her beauty they think of #her demonstrations of love for them and her smile and her warm kind eyes and her liveliness #i could go on about this.... #its also similar to how frank calls her beautiful multiple times which im totally normal (very insane) about #“there is a line of water across her forehead” shes run-down from housework and not dressed up at all but theres so much beauty in #her visible hospitality #her beauty isn't defined by it but its present within it #man. just the beauty of fiona gallagher. #+ it hits more when you realise that from their perspective there is no one else in the world who will love them as unconditionally or #no-one besides her who has done the things for them that shes done #this is the woman whose face theyve all looked into since they were babies

[akkivee]

i have missed them so much lmao

#this is vee speaking #sasara trying to be funny and kuukou coming at him practically unprovoked ITS THE BEST THEYRE THE BEST LOL #i was mentally complaining to myself again that it’s a shame that nagosaka aren’t a team duo the way the og divisions are #because i think it’s cute both sasara and kuukou find a guy and want to match them lol like kuukou donned a red bandanna #sasara and rosho have a matching clothes thing lol #AND THEN my brain jumped to how ichiro and samatoki have similar life goals #and jakurai and ramuda are connected by actions they’ve regretted but really didn’t have much say in making #sasara and kuukou must be also defined by a past event that shaped them which would mean ✨divorce✨ since we don’t know kuukou’s bg lol #i’ve been pulling a kuukou and flip flopping between whether or not unnamed important woman in kuukou’s life is his mom or an older sister #but it would make sense from a parallel perspective if split parents in some way was both their damage #sasara couldn’t stop them from separating and kuukou couldn’t stop her from leaving??? i wonder lol

not going to watch ms marvel or engage with it at all but i’m definitely curious about Who Exactly decided Kamela’s power should come from Djinn and who decided to have Nakia look like that

Because whoever made those decisions knows exactly what they’re doing. Trying to make Muslim immigrants stomachable for white audiences and in doing so removing the aspects of religion and culture that defined so many characters in this series and moreover define us as people

#only seen the trailer #didn't like what they did with Nakia at all. Not at all #You guys don't understand the awareness of making the choice to wear a hijab especially in a non-muslim country nor the requirement to cover #the neck! Ilhan Omar might do it but she makes a choice and it could be cultural or because the US government would never let her set foot #in the government if she wore a full hijab. Either way I respect her choice but for someone to take what could be either a cultural thing or #a compromise between being a representative of your religion and roots AND your country and to then apply it to a character who #uncompromisingly embraced all aspects of her religion in the comics? and her knowledge and critical thinking of society from an islamic #perspective are her defining features? CHEAP #or nah about ilhan omar it's her personal preference fundamentally but any muslim knows there is a distinction between the 2 ways of wearing #hijab. and for the writers or whoever to apply that nakia is highly dubious #and im assuming that's the link theyre going for. They're going for 'well this muslim woman does it like this so there' THAT'S A HUMAN PERSO #PERSON WHO MADE A CHOICE. BASED ON THEIR VALUES. DO NOT CONFLATE ONE PERSON'S CHOICE WITH ANOTHER'S. #the author of ms marvel made a choice to have Nakia wear her hijab THIS way. Andh for her character to be Like This. Her Values like That #you know what im saying? this is also more insidious than changing plot points or characters for ordinary stories or percy jackson or whatev #because it's about islam. it's about representation or muslim minorities and islam in western media. most of us don't like being represented #in western media because it is NEVER an acceptable representation. here again it's distorted. #anyway i wil stop ranting in the tags #and the thing that bothers me is those are pretty big things already. so what else did they totally change to remove the islamic side

cis person gender dysphoria is on my mind because of a Skyrim fan?comic about bar maids of the reptilian race in that game wearing breast forms to get better tips from the mammals.

Namely that I think it's cracked an Issue I've had with Ione basically since I first made her. I've just been struggling to find the shape of her inner battle. She's a fuck off giant snake monster who was once a normal human. What insecurity keeps her up at night?

There was the loss of her career, but she's already found a new one where she's valued as a person instead of as a commodity. It even came with a support network of friends who respect and love her and want to see her happy instead of her old friend group where everyone was constantly pushing each other down to try and get higher than them.

There was the loss of her 'humanity', but she didn't lose that. she's still the same person she was before getting arloed.

The murder eyes then? Well she figured out really quickly how to control it, and all the people she has killed had it coming in her opinion. She's anxious about it, yes, but it's not an insecurity.

So What Would she actually care about around the time the story meets up with her at the circus?

Gender dysphoria. She's still a person, but no one treats her like a normal woman anymore. She's expected to be tougher, to care less. She's not welcome in a lot of the spaces she used to be. She doesn't get to enjoy being beautiful or feminine without someone making light of it. She's still a woman when people want to be shitty to her, but she's not woman enough any other moment.

And it fucking sucks. it plays a big part in her ultra femme presentation because it seems that's the only way people will at least treat her as a woman with an asterisk. She hates seeing herself in the mirror because the body she has now doesn't fit her. It's not who she is. She wants to go back to being dainty and pretty and the sort of person people don't expect to be strong 24/7. She wants the vulnerability and softness that was afforded to her before she was all scales and venomous fangs. She wants to be flirted with in a way that doesn't make her feel like the person talking to her is more interested in her as a snake than as a person.

That will be her insecurity.

#its also something that would help her relationship with Adonis Vibe more #From her perspective he treats her as if he hasn't realized shes a giant snake. #Hes awkward and not great at flirting in ways that arnt big gestures but he still makes her feel like a woman in his own #rock headed way.

With your parents being annoying… I can hear the feeling of intrusion and I don’t know your relationship… but as a mother let me tell you: you carry a peace of your heart outside your body… a call every two weeks would kill me … just to get a perspective for the other side. The problem is usually when they don’t care :). It is hard to find the mix between distance and closeness especially when trying to find your own way in the world. Overprotectiveness can be crushing… but trust me, it was much much easier to be mad at my parents before I had a kid of my own 😄😄🙈 again, not telling you what to feel and I am sure you guys will figure out some way

you’re right, you don’t know our relationship which makes this an unbelievably disrespectful and honestly downright cruel message to send.

she is the one who does not call me for upwards of a month at a time. i honestly can’t remember the last time she called me first. it’s all me. she barely remembers she has another kid and when she does she switches to being possessive and invasive to ‘make up for it’ or whatever. she doesn’t fucking care most of the time. and that’s not worse, this is not better, it all fucking sucks. the only thing im trying to balance is my parents’ continued degree of financial control over my life vs how badly it harms me to continue to have contact with them.

also, if she wanted more frequent contact she could’ve tried idk not abusing me. that might’ve helped. the cptsd makes it a little fucking hard to prioritize having a chat with her, what with her literally almost killing me several times and all. i may be a piece of her heart outside her body or what the fuck ever but she sure as hell didn’t let that stop her from destroying me as a person and blaming me for it. maybe if the idea of not hearing from your kid however often you want bothers you start with ‘don’t be abusive’ and go from there. im making plans for my first kid at the moment and i cannot fathom a world where having that child is going to make me anything but more angry at them for the shit they did to me.

not that you’re entitled to any of that information. just thought you might be jolted out of whatever rosy parents can do no wrong world you live in where there can’t possibly be a fucking reason aside from ‘oh surely this stranger doesn’t get why someone’s mom might want to hear from them’ that someone might not be fucking thrilled to call their mother. i cannot begin to describe how invasive and upsetting a message this was to get when i have already been having a difficult weekend regarding being triggered about this shit.

‘i can hear the feeling of intrusion and i dont know your relationship’ so you know this was wrong to say, then? listen to that feeling next time. it’s your fucking conscience and it might keep you from lecturing the next fucking abuse victim about how they’re probably hurting their abusers’ poor feelings and they just don’t get a mother’s love and how it feels or whatever. fuck off and go to hell.

#gav gab #gav answers #abuse cw #of all the inappropriate messages to send im genuinely fucking livid #‘being annoying’ that’s not the fucking impact of her freak out #i felt fucking TERRIFIED and TRAPPED because the basis for this woman deciding she cares about being my mom again #is needing to tell campus police to disregard any calls they get from my family #and also the time i sat in family therapy listening to the woman who almost killed me go on very intense rants #about how she needs to step up and be stricter be more controlling be harsher with me #imagine seeing someone triggered by an abuser getting possessive and controlling and going oh i got this! #time for ME and my SUPERIOR PERSPECTIVE to lecture this chump about how important it is to consider their abuser’s feelings! #surely that’s what this calls for! #‘but gav there’s nothing directly identifying your mother as abusive in that post’ which is EXACTLY how you know you don’t have #the fucking AUTHORITY OR STANDING to say absolutely fuck all to someone about their parents based on a single post #it is not secret knowledge. i reblogged a post about abuse yesterday and pretty directly identified my parents as abusive in the tags #anyone who knows me anywhere CLOSE to enough to be entitled to an opinion on how i deal with my fucking family knows this about me #this is why you stay the fuck out of what’s not your fucking business

The problem with Bo Burnham is that he'll deliver the most gut wrenching, soul shattering, humanity encompassing lyric, flowed immediately by some shit like "a goat cheese salaaaaad~" or "I sent gays to fix overpopulation.... boy did that go well"

#thinking specifically of: #white womans instagram when he talks about a woman making a post about her dead parents #but only to tell them she misses them and shes really happy #FUCK #and also in from the perspective of god #when he sings you make my job a living hell #god its so beautiful #bo burnham #bo burnham inside #bo burnham what #bo burnham make happy

house of the dragon so far is entirely about the violence inherent in being a woman and how that toll is exacted across different social/power structures so it’s extremely pertinent and fascinating that alicent and rhaenyra are essentially locked away from each other and the freedom/comfort they could give each other, while the show is taking pains to emphasize how rhaenyra and daemon are The Same and their connection, while probably the only honest and true one either of them has, also drives both of them (and the realm) to ruin..... with how the narrative has been (so far) the civil war is very much going to be caused by two incredibly lonely, incredibly reckless, incredibly brash and emotional people choosing themselves over duty/realm and everyone around them reacting to that vacuum.... the two headed dragon lashing out etc and the woman on the other side, chafing against her shackles and poisoned on love lost like... there’s a sickness in this house etc etc etc 

#i DO think daemon has true feelings for rhaenyra because that's the tragedy of the story #if he didn't and if she didn't there could be a turning point and a way to deescalate the oncoming violence and destruction #but they don't WANT to turn away and they're going to ruin literally everything #rhaenrya needs to be everyone's delight and she's maimed by the turning of alicent away from her #she doesn't have the realm and she doesn't have alicent and she doesn't have the crown so what is left.... #and alicent has ALWAYS love rhaenyra in a way that is tempered by what she percieves as rhaenyra's ungratefullness #she's a woman beholden to duty with no room to wiggle #she loves rhaenyra and she hates rhaenyra and she wants to be rhaenyra and she wants to keep rhaenyra from her own fate #but R doesn't have the capacity to see anything from anyone else's perspective #so they're left cold with their own betrayals #and R has D but A has???? her titleso she has to keep it #hotd #also D/R have power inherent to their name which means they get to be stupid and ruinious in ways alicent doesn't have access to which is VE #profuse apologies for understanding daemon

height of my night is my dad talking abt the gay bars in town and being like ‘oh that ones a straight meat market!! naked guys dancing on tables and all that!’ and then i was like. isnt the one you used to go to. and he was like. yeah

#before my dad met my mom he was deeply in love with this trans woman who did drag shows at this local gay bar #and he would go every night. she died of aids but he still speaks abt her so fondly its sweet #but this particular club is what he calls ‘full of old fashioned queers’ #the windows were still painted so no one could see inside type old fashioned. #and he talks abt it so fondly but also he’s like. a bit more open abt why he visited so often #now my brother and i are older and also gay #men lmaooo… #my dad straight up told me the best cruising spots one time. that was fun #i think a lot of time when ppl think of older bi men they think of guys who identified as straight or gay then settled down and #figured out when they were older but my dad’s known he’s bisexual since he was #15. and like. he was rlly in gay culture at the time #and its tbh nice hearing abt it. its not like. #super graphic what he says but i acknowledge that my dad had other partners before my mom. some of them men. #and its just like kinda cool to have that elder queer prescense in my family #of course my moms the same way. she talks abt her life working on all #women farms. and living in san francisco and . #being in this lesbian scene in the 80’s and its so cool.. #i will admit. i didnt know my parents were queer until i had already come out #but they never. hid it from us it just never came up. #but once it did it was rlly nice to have that perspective. #bc my parents are from a different era of queer ppl it was hard to get them to understand transition at first #bc my dad didnt really know the difference between trans people and ‘crossdressers’ bc a lot of ppl considered themselves as both #when he was in the scene. #but they learned and its just nice to have multiple generations of queer ppl in the family #its comforting. #knowing that my brother and i are educating them as much as they are to us.

Whether or not this is a true composition, and the details do sound convincing, it is written from a position of strength. Anne was confident that she was soon to bear a son and that she was beyond the reach of any harm that Mary or her party might intend her. The letter distances Anne from self-interest in the matter, presenting the purest motives, urging Mrs Shelton to action out of her duty to the King. The tone is not consistent with Chapuys' contemporaneous report that Anne frequently wept in the period immediately following Catherine's death, in the realisation that a significant obstacle had been removed should Henry choose to set her aside.

Anne Boleyn: Adultery, Heresy, Desire (Licence, Amy)

#amy licence #anne boleyn #not really sure one precludes the other but...hm #the thing abt the report from chapuys about anne crying when receiving news of coa's death #is that he concedes it has come to him from 'several reliable quarters' and yet is weirdly also dismissive of his own report #he says he doesn't believe it. #but i mean that goes back as far as 1529-30. #when he heard anne had sent wolsey a gift by several 'worthy sources' but still didn't believe it #what he couldn't concede was that anne wasn't as cruel or cold as he believed her to be #so when he heard a report that didn't conform to his view of her it was suddenly hmm no...the sources must be wrong #there's only one concession of that nature and it's after the fact #'henry percy's physician says he said the concubine will poison her stepdaughter' #'another source has told me henry percy is not a reliable source' #i'd believe it happened altho the reason might be different #a sort of emotional catharsis/ relief. the memory of the woman anne knew her as before circumstances and the path she chose #set them against each other. #and anne wasn't unfeeling. but we have to remember the extant sources are all the male perspective #there are scattered reports from 1528-36 that speak of incidences of her weeping #but as they come from men they tend to be dismissed as manipulation > genuine #so. tl; dr. sort of have to roll my eyes at skepticism of THAT chapuys report #bcus the same that tend to express it have it for that and not anyyyy others

not telling anyone what to do but I kinda miss when the understanding abt multiple pronouns used to be that any are fine or different ones apply in different contexts whereas now the default assumption is you need to be constantly switching between them per sentence like that is really inaccessible for a lot of people + difficult in a second language + just genuinely defeats the linguistic object of a pronoun 😭

but I think it came from being a tme she/they who no one ever uses they for which I understand the frustration but i wish we could approach the root causes of that rather than the way I've seen ppl claim not alternating pronouns for someone midsentence is literally misgendering & honestly at the end of the day if you don't want someone to use she pronouns for you, tell them not to use she pronouns! we were all pronouns=/=gender until its "they to show I don't identify with the institution of womanhood, she to show my connection with femininity" but honestly how do you actually like being referred to, worry abt that. if u actually don't like ppl using she to refer to u then tell them that & if the discomfort is bc it shows their perception of u doesn't align w ur gender then like performative language doesnt actually change that anyway so mb if we stopped worrying about this we could actually have way more worthwhile conversations about gender.

#I also think it came from celebrities sorry #bc pronouns kind of have a different relevance in that context also im sure reading articles about yourself #is kind of a weird dehumanising experience regardless #which is easy to project as a gender thing #especially with how they'll talk about u if ur a woman or perceived as one #but yeah I think the approach some ppl take of like 'exclusively they in the context of press/talking about my career whatever' is just way #more helpful #whereas in ur personal life I think there are better ways to approach someone who doesn't see you as nb enough or whatever #also online behaviour SORRY you can always edit a comment to alternate pronouns bur speaking that way irl is really hard #bc that is not how our brains think about pronouns 😭 #I specify tme bc if ur transfeminine itll be the other way around #my sisters gf finally dropped the they pronoun that she basically used to give ppl an easy out to like soft misgender her #so it's a bit like. can we have some perspective lol #and bc their uni is drowning in wealthy white theyfabs obsessed w trying to shake off their upper middle class white guilt #ppl acted like thats like less Queer.... like agsheiwojsbdnwjd I hope these ppl die. theyre all polycule ppl too

I hate when Vincent asks Lucrecia if she's sure about proceeding with the experiment and she's all yelling "if it only concerns me then yes I'm sure!" And like BITCH IT DOES NOT JUST CONCERN YOU!!!!
