HAPPY PRIDE EVERYONE!!!
got punched in the head by a fascist today after screaming at a march they were doing in my city. I’m fine (it was a very pathetic punch), no regrets, it’s scary that that’s something I have to worry about regularly now though. stay safe out there and happy pride
Had my first ever date on the first day of pride and I am in shambles. She’s so cute and she thinks I’m so pretty and I just can’t handle a girl that cute calling me pretty aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
I propose we all get one free stabbing of a cishet this month
I wonder what percent of the population is actually trans. Studies always say quite a bit lower than 1% of the population identified as transgender. But if you asked 1960s Americans if they were gay, you’d also end up with an extremely low number. Alfred Kinsey did a more detailed survey and found a very high percentage of people had gay attraction. Li Shiu Tong came to the same conclusion but I don’t know what his methods were. So the vast majority of LGB people identify as straight in homophobic societies. The recent survey that shows something like a fifth of Gen Z is gay in some way proves this. So I wonder what percent of trans people identify as cis in transphobic societies? Are there any studies that ask if people would press The Button, or other questions more insightful than just “are you trans?” What if it’s actually rather high? Egg discourse would go crazy.
How many people know they’re trans and just repress forever because inward agony of dysphoria is decided to be preferable to outward agony of persecution? Probably not zero
Came home from work yesterday to find a dress I ordered off Etsy came much sooner than I was expecting. It’s first actual dress I’ve gotten. So I ran inside, and put it on. Sooooo comfy and cute. Then when my husband got home a little later, he immediately said I looked cute and that he was proud of me for buying a dress finally. (I’ve clogged our shared amazon account with dress recommendations from all the searches I’ve done) Then he told me he had gotten me an anniversary gift and it came yesterday also. So he gave it to me and it’s an adorable pleated skirt! I nearly died. I started crying and hugged him, thanking him over and over. I’m so lucky I get to have him in my life.
