Pain is a constant, a neverending battle; as ugly as it is, it becomes a strongest weapon to find the love we deserve. There are people out there that will love you for everything you are, and for those who are too unwilling to love continue are obsessed with their own ego.

Spread the infinite love of self-acceptance

Shout out to my trans and enby ace’s who are trying to figure out how to feel at the moment. Asexual Awareness Week is usually a time for us to feel proud about who we are, but right now with the trump administration trying to erase trans identities on a legal level, it can be hard to celebrate.

It’s not wrong if you feel like you can’t enjoy Ace Awareness Week at all because of what’s going on politically. That is totally understandable and I hope you’re taking care of yourself this week. 

It’s not wrong if you want to focus on celebrating Asexual Awareness Week right now and deal with your emotions surrounding what’s happening politically later. Sometimes when bad things happen we need to focus on celebrating something else in order to not feel broken. The need for activism will still be here when AWW is over, so go enjoy your week. 

It’s not wrong if you’re feeling a mix of upset and celebration. People can feel more than one thing at a time, that’s okay, just take care not to get emotional whiplash and I hope you take some time to be kind to yourself this week when you’re mind is focused on politics.

We’re all having different responses to this and that’s alright. Take care of yourselves and if people need to talk my ask box is open. 💙💜

National Coming Out Day

nbee:

As most of you probably know, Oct 11 is National Coming Out Day and I just want to give a friendly reminder that even with tomorrow being the day it is, you are under no obligation to come out. 

It’s perfectly okay if you want to, planned or not, and if you do I wish you the best of luck and hope you have a large support network! 

If you don’t want to come out, whether it’s because of an unsafe environment, you don’t feel ready, or what have you– it’s okay to not come out! Your comfort and safety are important things to consider. 

So, no matter what you decide– to come out or stay in the closet for just a while longer– I support you and wish you comfort and safety either way ❤

Teenage transmedicalist fresh out of grade 9 biology class: You NEED dysphoria to be trans, it’s the only requirement! Just ask the medical experts, they’ll tell you!

The American Psychiatric Association: No you don’t, and no it isn’t.

The World Medical Association: Sure, dysphoria’s common in trans people, but it’s not necessary.

World Health Organization: Including GID and Gender Dysphoria diagnoses in official diagnostic standards pathologizes trans people. (pdf)
