Grey – Trans masculine

This week we are going to feature different posts about being Enby, Enby or Non-Binary is a blanket term for lots of different genders that are not male or female and most Enby people fit into a narrower category, I personally feel most comfortable with the term transmasculine.

Jay – Please Use My Real Name

I had planned on posting on Tuesday about pronouns but then life happened and I ended up writing this instead. I’d planned out my post and even found some resources to use but it didn’t go as planned (I will add a brief post about pronouns very soon as long as my regular post next week. Enjoy.)

Grey – Trans vs Trans*

I am involved in a queer group (it’s where jay and I met) and this debate keeps coming up. It mostly revolves around tumber posts like these I love the asterisk and today I’m gonna talk about why.

Jay – Die Cis Scum?

Please note that my university focused mind wanted to use credible sources for this post but as not a lot has been written on the topic this is simply just my opinions

 

Flick – Porn has not TRANSitioned

Ed: This week our guest writer is Flick, They are an arts and politics student with a strong grounding in feminism, socialism and Judeo-Christian faiths. This week we invited Flick to talk about an issue within the spheres of feminism and trans* issues, they chose the topic of transgender pornography, in particular “shemale porn”.

Grey – Why do rad-fems hate trans* people?

This post will talk about trans* exclusionary radical feminists (TERFs). Many radical feminists support LGBT rights, but trans* issues often run against some strong rad-fem ideologies. This post is not claiming that every rad-rem hates trans*people or to be a rad-fem you need to hate trans*people.

Jay – Friend or Foe?

One of the upsides of coming out as trans* is being learning which friends really care about you and which friends won’t accept you for who you are.

The downside is you find out which friends won’t accept you for who you are and that often leads to losing friends which can be hard when you’re only just accepting yourself.

 

Grey – Institutional recognition of being trans*

Everyone knows that paperwork and forms are awful but when people don’t even understand why or what your saying and writing, forms get a lot worse and pretty much all of them don’t know much about trans*people or are designed to make their lives hard, so I thought I would break them down, and hopefully for the government based institutions help out some people.
