I wish there was a way someone could diagnose your gender.
Like I wish you could walk into an office and be like “ay doc, I��m AFAB but I have a phantom kibbles and bits, I cried watching ‘Stand By Me’ and relish the anonymity of the internet but when I pick up a romance novel I’m One Of The Girls, I think ‘I wanna be like that guy’ frequently, I want to smell like mesquite and oh, I’m also a raging lesbian. What’s going on” and the doctor goes “hmm, hmm, ah yes” and hands you like a flag or something

Those people who don't know if they're a butch lesbian or a trans man I love you. You're not doing any of this wrong. There's nothing wrong with your existence. Identity is hard and you don't deserve backlash for struggling to fit into this world. I see you, I love you. Please keep going. You're worth it. This is who you are, and if not, you'll figure it out in time. But it's okay if you never figure it out. It's okay. You can be this. You're not wrong or predatory or faking anything. It's okay. Hugs

Every day of the year, not just during Pride Month. Trans and GNC lives are ALWAYS important and ALWAYS relevant.

tbh I think one of the coolest things a person can ever do is take the time to really explore themselves & their identity and then live their life with intention as their most authentic self
(oh & you know what I'm not editing the meme bc I'm lazy but this also applies to folks who explore their sexuality and find they're 100% straight, y'all fuckin rock and i love that for you)

There's no need to ask permission or reach consensus with an arbitrary group of people in order to identify as nonbinary.
Claiming the nonbinary label is something that you do for yourself.
Ask yourself if it applies, because only your opinion matters.

I deleted my last hellacute Tumblr blog, bc I freaked out. I panic every so often by thinking I'm too old to start this journey. I previously posted the first pic of this post, asking if there is any room at the Tumblr table for older trans women? I ask it again, but this time I want to change the question...
Is there any room at the Tumblr table for older Transgender persons who struggle with their gender identity?
I see a lot of younger trans women on Tumblr with lots of likes and reblogs, but very few older ones. I'm pushing 50 😭 and could use some encouragement by knowing I'm seen and not overlooked. Ya know what I mean?
REBLOG if you support transgender persons of all ages

REMINDER THAT THE WAY YOU PRESENT YOURSELF HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR GENDER!! You could look like the most feminine person on the world and be a boy. It doesn’t matter. And also even if you prefer to dress like your agab you could be trans/nb/gq/ag/etc. or if you dress different from your agab you could still be cis. The way you dress is gender representation not your actual gender. Clothes shouldn’t be gendered at all but that’s a whole different topic. I think realizing that no matter how I dress my gender won’t be affected is something that helped me a lot with my self discovery. Now I’m not saying to dress different than your gender I’m just saying if you’re questioning focus on how you feel not the way you like to look (although that can be helpful too it’s all about the specific person!!)

I’ve been struggling for a long time (almost 5 years now) over whether or not I’m trans. At this point I’m think I might be, but I’m terrified of loosing all the stuff I love about womanhood. The friendships, the clothes, but mainly being able to call myself a lesbian.
I think I really need to confront my gender, but I don’t know if it’s worth loosing all of these things that mean the world to me, advice?
fun fact: you don’t have to lose any of those things to be trans!
your friendships don’t have to change. sure, if you get to a point where you pass as a guy / are seen as not-a-girl in some way, new people might treat you differently and approach friendship with you differently, but the friendships you already have won’t have to change at all. absolutely nothing about my friendships changed when i came out; there’s no way of being friends that’s exclusive to women. and if a friend does treat you differently just because you’re trans? that’s on them, and it honestly might be a sign that you’re better off without them anyway.
you can wear all the same clothes you do now. my wardrobe hasn’t changed at all since i came out. i’ve always chosen my clothes just based on what is most comfortable for me, so i’ve been perfectly happy keeping all of my old clothes. my body and the way other people see me were the things i felt the need to change, not my clothes. i might not have the most masculine wardrobe ever, but it’s what i’m comfortable in and that’s the important part. if anything, being trans just expanded my wardrobe instead of changing it — i kept wearing all the things i always liked, but i also started to look in the men’s section and found even more things that i like wearing.
and you don’t have to stop calling yourself a lesbian just because you’re trans. it’s one thing if being trans also means the label doesn’t feel like it fits anymore, but if it still feels right? you can keep using it as long as you like. nonbinary lesbians and transmasc lesbians and lesboys and trans men whose love for women still feels gay and people whose only remaining connection to womanhood is the fact that they’re lesbians and multigender people who are lesbians because of their womanhood while also being other genders and people whose genders are just butch or femme or dyke and nothing else all absolutely exist, as do trans guys who don’t personally call themselves lesbians anymore but remain part of the community because it still just feels like their home; you’d be far from the first person to transition while holding onto an identity that’s still meaningful to you, even if it sounds contradictory to other people.
i’ve gone through similar processes of trying to reconcile newly discovered parts of my identity with the parts i’d already accepted, and you’d be surprised how often the answer to the dilemma is just “i guess i’m both, unless/until i decide one of them doesn’t feel right anymore.” i don’t talk a lot about my specific identities on here but they’re full of so-called contradictions. the thing about queerness is that it’s never been about making our identities “make sense” or “sound right” to other people. queerness is automatically looked down on by most people as wrong or unnatural or confusing or just completely unintelligible, and the job of queer people is not to make them more intelligible but to embrace them despite the fact that most people think we’re ridiculous for doing so. the only person your identity has to feel right to is you; no one else matters.
any shift in identity is going to feel like a massive change when your old identity is one you lived in for a long time and grew attached to, but being a big change doesn’t mean it’s necessarily a loss. of course, if it feels right to let go of some of the old to make room for the new, do that, but never feel obligated to do so. if you aren’t ready to let go of something associated with your old identity yet, let those things stick around while you welcome the new stuff in and see how they get along. you aren’t on any kind of timeline; you can take the transition slow and only let go of things once you feel absolutely sure that they aren’t serving you anymore, even if that means never letting go of some of the things other people say you should want nothing to do with. some of us are happiest when we embrace identities and ways of moving through the world that make absolutely no sense to anyone but us.
so my advice is this: don’t run away from this. it’s not fair to yourself to live your entire life in a limbo space of perpetually agonizing over your identity but never doing anything about it. the best thing you can do is give yourself permission to explore these feelings in their entirety, rather than only focusing on the things they might take away from you. i know it’s scary, but i guarantee you’ll come out happier on the other side no matter what you end up identifying as. knowing more about how you want to be seen and how you want to live life is only going to help you be more satisfied with the life you’re living — you can’t be happy if you never give yourself the space to learn what being happy means for you.
if, at the end of it all, you do end up letting go of some of the things you feel attached to now, it’ll only be because you found something that makes you even happier and feels even more right. and if you don’t? you can live the rest of your life holding onto all of the things you love about womanhood without actually/entirely/only being a woman! there are no rules; gender and queerness have no limits except for the limits of how far you’re willing to go to truly know yourself.

This goes out to all the Xenogenderers, "cringy" nonbinaries, genderfluid, -fucked and otherwise genderweird people. Everyone who can't really cleanly explain their identity and aren't binary enough to feel truly trans or be taken seriously. By cishets or other queer people. This goes out to you all, who can't really transition, maybe bc you don't know how to/what that would look like for you, or because you'd be perceived and mocked as a freak, or maybe the exact treatments or helps you want n need aren't available, realistic, possible or even don't exist. Who aren't sure how you'd even go about affirming your gender or correcting misgendering. Maybe bc it'd take too much effort or not make sense to most people. Or just out of fear or inconvenience. Those who are often left out of trans conversations, for being too unusual or not seen as valid.
This or that, I'm here to say I see you. You are trans enough. You are exactly the gender(s) you are. I hope you find euphoric things in your life fuken STAT, and if you're still questioning I wish you all the best in your self discovery and it's okay to take time and experiment, you're absolutely never a nuisance for asking to have your identity respected and accommodated for, and no matter how temporary or a "phase" any nuances of your identity are, they still are worthy of respect when they're true for you. If you identify as one thing now, you deserve to be recognized as that now and for as long as you identify as such. Even if that changes tomorrow. Even if you turn out to be mistaken.
It's okay. You're enough. Have fun with it please

I love not telling anyone my pronouns, not in a transphobic way, but in a "your guess is as good as mine" way
