Transguy here! I wish people would realize how fluid gender really is. I dress 'butch' with plaid jackets and band t-shirts and baggy jeans, but shop for earrings and leggings at claire's, and I couldn't live without the colour pink.
"The day you claimed AIDS was a gift of God our wheels started spinning like Christ turning over in His grave" --- as a gay-affirming Christian, that line gives me chills.
This poem made me cry. Words have power and this woman uses them like a genius, I have no words to describe her genius, except that they make me cry, and I love them.
but tomorrow when i pull the word faggot from the shotgun of a fratboys throat then send it in a love letter to my love so she can scratch it down my back please believe i am taking back every bible belt that ever cracked against my spine, every night i drove through Kansas with i swear to god, a papperet in my fucking pocket incase i had to split second decide if woman would be safer armor than this when him flashing blue lights, give me ten seconds to pick.
@melonleeadventures Or how they dress~ I've seen a person before who identified as a male, but loved women and wore dresses. You never know who the person is.
@stjesuskat666 I met her in Baltimore. She's suprisingly short. I wanted to thank herso much, but I was just wicked nervous to talk to her. I love her!
Amazing. I love her. She is amazing.

@theforthwright Ya know, genius has a specific meaning. She is talented and wonderful, but really you have no idea if she is a genius based on this.
blazneg2007 5 months ago
@blazneg2007 if you watch more of her performances, you may agree with the term "genius"

@FutileObsession what's a papperet?
tangent94 8 months ago
@tangent94 a papperet is a craft knife, like a blade that retracts into a case. to cut the binder with.

This is how you fight hate. Not by returning hate to the haters, but by being beautiful in what you do and say.

I can guarantee a haircut will never tell you anything about someone's gender, who they love or how they fuck.
