The alchemists (who popularized, nay, esotericized, such symbols) were gender essentialists. Yes, they imagined possibilities beyond male and female but does anyone really want to be an allegory?

Really on edge with the Republicans pishing anti-trans hate everywhere and passing abusive anti-trans laws where they can. How many kids will they kill?

I think there’s some merit in some gc arguments, but, uh…

Reblogging to remind everyone about the anti-semitic conspiracy theories that big name TERFs like Bilek have managed to spread among not only their own direct social groups but also the far right in...

Migraine warning for the intro music…

As we pass 5000 notes I’ll remind you all again that these conspiracy theories are not merely unhinged but very literally the love child of TERFs and the far right.

So one of my younger relatives has started using they/them pronouns (presumably they/them/their/them for nominative/accusative/genitive/dative) and what has traditionally been a boyname.

I haven’t met them in years, so don’t know if they’re questioning, or solidly enby-identifying, or something else.

I want to help. I don’t know where they’re at or what will help, and frankly, I have a lot of trauma around andronormativity and still want to challenge that, but I don’t want to be a jerk to them and deny their identity.

Do you have their contact info? Can you reach out and offer an ear to listen? My BFF’s kid came out as non-binary a few years ago (around the same time that their father was being an asshole, eventually leaving the family for a younger woman, no less, so you can imagine how difficult it was). My BFF didn’t necessarily understand all her kiddo was going through, but she knew that the most important part was just to listen and accept them as they are. Bean is now in college and a happy person who seems incredibly secure in their identity. What kids (all kids, too) really need is just acceptance from an adult in their lives.

Reminds me of a recent Something Positive comic, about the non-binary character Gris who is living with the main character for a time. Their parents are less accepting of their identity, but the parents of the friend are far more accepting… the link might have some pop ups, and the like, so I’ll post the comic here, too in case you don’t want to click through:
