Trans Awareness - Blog Posts

Happy International Transgender Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

We are well beyond canary in the coalmine warning levels with the way trans people and particularly trans women are treated on this site.

Maybe you've heard the metaphor of allowing wolves and sheep to share the same space, welcoming everyone. You end up with just wolves because allowing them in that space makes it unsafe for any sheep. Or the story about how a nazi goes into a dive bar and is refused service. The bartender then explains to someone else at the bar that if you serve them once they tell their friends and before you know it you're the nazi bar they all go to and normal customers don't feel safe.

Terfs and other bigots are seeing these targeted harassment campaigns succeed against trans women and rejoicing. They see Tumblr ban them and officially stand by those decisions as endorsement for their harassment. It's a sign to bigots across the internet that Tumblr is a good place for them.

And what's more is that a lot of us probably don't realize just how much trans women contribute to Tumblr. The women banned recently were sources of site-wide memes and posts I wasn't even aware originated from them.any years old memes and references can be traced back to trans women on this site.

How many of these folks have to be removed before this is no longer a site you want to be a part of it? Sure you cultivate your own experience, but you can't follow or interact with people who aren't here. And if I wanted to interact with the nazis and terfs I'd go to reddit.

I encourage everyone to reblog this. Trans women shouldn't have to be the only ones speaking out against the bigotry they're experiencing. They shouldn't be the only ones risking their blogs being nuked by staff. We have to stand with them.

shoutout to all my transgender followers you are all beautiful and exceptionally wonderful thank you for being you

Luce Says: transgender people are fucking epic.

This is canon, I asked Francis myself.

#MyNameIsReno and i am a trans person

rest in peace to all of my trans brothers and sisters out there 🤍

#MyNameIs

I propose that we start the #MyNameIs(insert) trend. This conveys that us trans folk are here, in the present. That we matter and people should care about trans issues that affect our lives and those around us. We are not people that have fallen prey to the horror of suicide, but that we are in the now and trying our hardest to be ourselves. Please spread the word. #MyNameIsJamie and I am a trans*person

TRANS AWARENESS YALL ❗️‼️🗣️

Don’t mind my weird looking watermarks

Thought I should at the very least make a comment on the ruling in the supreme court and how if It does not directly affect me it still affects alot of people

I want to preface I am with the trans community, I want to make a statement that trans people are not the enemy and that we should Stand by them as they are not sick or mentally ill they are as human as I am

I don't feel safe anymore because of this ruling because of the implications that have been made by the police which I presume others have already seen considering its everywhere, also please just research this and spread awareness to protect human beings and not the control that geriatric men and transphobes over what makes a woman and being able to control how others think and believe. As human and ones with morals no less I refuse to stand with this bulshit
