The second largest country in the world just decriminalized homosexuality. The Supreme Court of india struck away a colonial era ban on gay sex. “History owes an apology to LGBT persons for ostracisation and discrimination; It is difficult to right a wrong by history. But we can set the course for the future.” This is such a victory for the lgbtq+ community within India and all over the world. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Planned Parenthood is fucking amazing, y’all. I haven’t been there yet…but just talking to their HRT line on the phone…

They used my respected name right off the bat. Called me Riley all the way through. Used he/him pronouns. Didn’t slip up once. Asked me and “What’s your legal name? I’m sorry I have to ask that.”

Then asked me “Now is it okay if I send things with Riley Roswell to your home?” not wanting to out me accidentally and then “Is it okay if I send stuff with planned parenthood labels on them or do you want me to be discreet about it?” knowing there are people who could get in trouble with family or partners or others for going there.

OH MY GOD I’M GOING TO CRY AND THEY DIDN’T JUDGE ME AT ALL

THEY WERE TOTALLY ACCEPTING AND ANSWERED ALL MY STUPID FUCKING BASIC QUESTIONS ABOUT HRT ABOUT WHAT THE APPT WAS GONNA BE LIKE

AND SHE WAS SO KIND AND SO UNDERSTANDING

AND SHE RESPECTED ME SO MUCH AND I WAS SO HAPPY

I CAN’T BELIEVE PEOPLE LIKE THAT EXIST IN OUR WORLD.

OH MY GOD.

AND I’M GOING TO BE GOING TO THIS WONDERFUL PLACE ON THE 29TH!!!!!!!!

This is so good! This makes us so happy! Here are Planned Parenthoods that offer HRT!

Reblog for those who need it. Thank you Planned Parenthood!

If you use pronouns that aren’t what are expected of you, that’s great. She/her gays and he/him lesbians, I am most definitely talking to you! You’re all great! Non-binary people, you’re great too, whether you use they/them, he/him or she/her, neopronouns, or any combination thereof! Anything that goes against expected gender experiences, anything that actively breaks down the lines that have been drawn around gender, is great.

There are lesbians and bi women who are not penis-repulsed.

And there are some who are penis-repulsed.

“I would never date a trans woman,” is transphobic because it is a blanket statement on all trans women, implying they are men.

“I have penis-repulsion, which limits my sexual compatability with some women,” is a better, less transphobic thing to say cuz it also refers to incompatability w/ cis women who prefer using strap-ons and dildos, while validating womanhood regardless of genitals.

Thank you for this. I had no idea how to ever adress this without sounding like a TERF. 

Also: not all trans women have penises! Surgery exists, and can be absolutely excellent for those who choose to have it! Whether or not a trans women has a penis is entirely up to her (albeit with considerations like the availability of doctors, her budget, and her general ability to undergo surgery).

And trans women can be penis-repulsed themselves! I would know, since I’m a penis-repulsed trans lesbian.
