ON TUMBLR REBLOGS ARE BETTER THAN LIKES!!!

I’ve only known Tomimi for 5 minutes, but if anything happens to her I will kill everyone in this room and then myself

Okay so I just got an idea (a very dangerous thing I know).

What if Ana Dakkar had a persona?

Oh my gods, her evoker could be one of Gem's 'twins'

A study just came out from Harvard about how gender affirming surgeries are more commonly performed on "cisgender men/boys" than transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people.

But these men/boys have gynecomastia which, if they were born with it (and the study doesn't specify), they're not just "cisgender".

They're intersex.

How many times now have intersex people told us perisex (non-intersex) people to stop using the statistics of their surgeries just as trans talking points, while erasing intersex people on the whole?

We have no idea how many of those surgeries were forced, or coerced, onto these intersex people. Either from doctors, parents, or even societal pressure.

Perisex trans people need to do better. We have to be better allies to intersex people than this. It disgusts me just how much we have failed our own community, time and time again.

UPDATE

The study actually specifically excluded intersex people.

"Importantly, all surgical procedures among patients with indications of differences in sex development or patients with other medical indications for surgery (eg, cancer, injury) were excluded..."

I'm happy to see this particular study has taken care to exclude intersex people, since surgeries done on them cannot be compared to transgender surgeries, but please bear in mind that this is still just one study.

The horrible truth is that medical abuse against our intersex siblings is still heavily normalized within the medical industry. From using terms like DSD, to forcing kids and even BABIES into sexual binaries with non or dubiously consensual surgeries or HRT, these horrors that intersex people have to go through are all too normal for them. That's unacceptable.

If you have reblogged this post without this update, I urge you to delete that reblog and reblog this version instead. We can fight for intersex rights and (if you're also perisex) show our solidarity without spreading misinformation.

Never actually posted a full version. The Light Dragon and the Twilight beast are two sides of the same ill fated coin.

Starting A Kind of Spark

[ID: The Brooklyn 99 "Arlo" meme, but with the words "Arlo" and "him" changed so that it reads:

"I've only had Addie for a day and a half but if anything happened to her I would kill everyone and then myself."

Arlo the dog's head has also been replaced with the face of Addie Darrow from CBBC's "A Kind of Spark".

End ID]

Yep, I headcannon Phoebe as Autistic.

I haven't seen anyone do an autism creature of Phoebe yet so I decided to try myself (Photoshop is part of my coursework after all).
