Ace Rings And Aro Rings. What Are They?

REBLOG IF YOUR BLOG IS A SAFE SPACE FOR AROMANTIC PEOPLE AND IF YOU THINK THEY ARE VALID

I want to see how many people actually are willing to say this and not just act like it

I Am Transsexual and Want An Education

Most of you know I am a transsexual. I do not hide it and I have never tried to.  

I am also a college student. Like many Americans, I cannot really afford to be there. Many trans people like me cannot afford higher education either.  

Transgender people don’t have the same kind of opportunities that cisgender people do. Either you live a lie and torture yourself because you know your family will forsake you if you say anything, you tell them everything and are kicked out, or you are lucky enough to get a neutral to positive response. Yes, neutral is lucky. 

The trans folks that say nothing and live in agony being unsupported and trapped can maybe go to college but know that if they say anything their tuition might be out the door, that their parents or family or guardians will throw them to the wolves. So they either suffer in silence or end up committing suicide. 

The trans folks that came out and were kicked out have basically no chance at ever going to college. You might be able to get government and private loans, but you’ll be drowning in debt by the end of it all. Debt you may never be able to pay off alone. 

The remaining lucky ones most likely still come from low to middle income families that can’t really afford college anyways. It is a borderline no-win scenario. 

How is this fair? Can’t everybody see this is cruel? This is a struggle faced by all queer people, but is intensified by the trans label. We are easy targets. 

I was once talking to a girl who was also queer, but not trans. I said, “Rae, in my state, it is illegal for me to use a public restroom. It is illegal for public institutions to give me my life saving medication. I have almost no rights. We are witnessing a modern-day segregation.” I live in Florida. 

She turned to me and said, “You know it’s hard for me too. There are like, no gay bars in my city. No fun ones anyway.” 

I felt like I had been slapped. I never really talked to her again.  

Of course, all queer people face oppression, but for her to dismiss the violent and dangerous actions that are being taken against my people in favor of her own problems highlights a deeper issue with the attitude towards trans people. 

We are an afterthought. 

We are different. 

Other people are so far removed from the plight of trans people that they do not recognize how privileged they are by comparison and damn it I refuse to be an afterthought for much longer. 

I do not want to live in quiet, secret moments anymore. I do not want to be in the shadows and behind closed doors. I want to feel comfortable out in the open. I shouldn’t have to hide. Let me wear what I want and be what I am. Let me hold my boyfriend’s hand in public. Let me be able to take off my binder or just not wear it at all. Let my people have healthcare and basic human decency. Let us get an education and let us use the goddamn bathroom. Let us. Let us. Let us.

help a queer latinx queer femme afford diabetes meds!! (please don’t scroll) Hey pals, most of you know me as Tai. I’m a 22 year old queer undocumented latinx femme and aspiring novelist, and I’m currently fucking panicking because my health insurance contract just ended. I have Type 1 diabetes, so my body depends on medication that’s vital to my life. I’m on a work visa that expires in a few months, and it’s the only documentation keeping me safe and “legal” in the eyes of the country. This year I’m hoping to complete my green card process so that I can reside in this country for good. My work contract from my last job also ran out and as an immunocompromised person, I’ve struggled to find safe work during this pandemic. I am not eligible for financial aid from the government. This is time sensitive. I’m just looking for support to help me with funding by diabetes meds. This is hugely time sensitive. Feel free to share this link with your immediate community! Any donations welcome, no amount is too small! Your help and support is greatly appreciated.  💖 kofi (preferred)
