culturally-specific orientations and gender identities are real and they exist whether you want to validate them or not. terfs and truscum refuse to accept these facts because their ideologies can only be defended by racist and colonialist arguments, such as insisting that gender is biologically-dictated or that your gender is not real unless you experience gender dysphoria and pursue medical transition with hormones, surgeries, and legal document changes.
biological essentialism, cis-normativity, and the pathological idea of ‘transgenderism’ are racist, they’re concepts made up by colonizers that are violently enforced by christianity and white supremacy. when we say “gender is a social construct” we mean “the gender binary and the idea of transness, as it is defined by western standards, are ideas constructed by a white christian society.” i am ‘trans’ and ‘queer’ only because i am considered trans and queer by white christian standards. in my own culture, i would not have to ‘transition’ because my gender would simply be accepted.
colonizers force upon us their concepts of gender, biological sex, and sexuality while they continue to erase ours. you cannot separate the extermination of our culturally-specific sexual orientations or genders from the violent genocidal destruction of our cultures. the words that once existed for our concepts of gender and attraction were erased when our languages were banned and we were punished, beaten, and tortured for teaching them.
my own two-spirit identity can only be labeled using the language of my oppressors because the words for what i am are no longer spoken.
#xe speak#130k notes later i am deciding to remake the post in a more concise way#if you're not native i still encourage you to reblog this (without commentary!) (even in the tags!!)#my language here is vague because this applies to EVERY indigenous culture#not just first nations on turtle island!#ndn tag#indigenous#twospirit#two spirit#genocide mention

An alt right Christian guy came up to try and talk about the bible with me cuz I was dressed like a modest woman, I instantly revealed myself as a gay crossdressing man and proceeded to aggressively flirt with this poor guy while he desperately tried to get out of the convo. Buddy picked the wrong f*g to mess with lol
#this was in the middle of a grocery store btw#this weirdo was just trying to preach to random people#ofc he wasn’t attractive either I was just trying to make him as uncomfortable as possible#it’s what he deserved lol#queer#crossdresser#transvestism#twospirit#storytime#leftist#rightwing#conservative#tradwife#I will absolutely tell more about this story if people want more#wild things were said

CHRONICALLY ILL AND DISABLED TWO SPIRIT PERSON IN NEED OF FINANCIAL AID + COMMUNITY SUPPORT.
Hello!
I’ve come here in the past to ask for help and I’m here again.
Me and my partner are moving into our own place! Which is amazing and will give us our own space for secure safety and freedom.
We were able to afford rent and the damage deposit and have a move in date and everything!! We’re both overjoyed and excited.
However I wasn’t able to work as much hours as I wanted to last month to meet our move out goal because I ended up really sick with a kidney infection that left me mostly bed bound.
If your able to share or donate it would greatly support us in the way of funding our gas, food and would be paying to feed everyone whose coming out to help us move !!
I’m a chronically Ill and disabled and my partner is recovering from a gender affirming surgery, anything would be helpful !!!

Let’s Understand Gender Dysphoria!
Hey beautiful souls! 🌟
Today, let’s delve deeper into understanding gender dysphoria.
This is important especially because gender dysphoria manifests uniquely amongst those who experience it.
And while some trans or non-binary individuals experience gender dysphoria, it is not a pre-requisite of being trans or non-binary.
Let’s explore this concept more… 🌿
🌷 What is Gender Dysphoria? It is generally experienced when there is an awareness that your gender does not align with the sex that you were assigned at birth.
So, if you were assigned female at birth and you feel like a man but your body does not appear this way, then you may experience gender dysphoria.
So if you were assigned male or female at birth and you feel that your gender sits outside of the gender binary of man or woman, then you may also experience gender dysphoria in relation to certain parts of your body or how you are perceived by others.
🏳️⚧️ Gender Dysphoria is Not a Mental Disorder. There is nothing wrong with someone who experiences gender dysphoria. It is not an individual pathology or illness. This means that gender incongruence is not classified as a mental health disorder, that’s why we say “dysphoria” and not “disorder”.
🍀 Facets of Dysphoria: There are mainly two aspects of gender dysphoria: social dysphoria, stemming from being perceived differently than one's gender identity, and physical dysphoria, a disconnect or discomfort with one’s physical attributes. These can bring a range of feelings, from shame and confusion to sadness and anger.
🔍 Intersectionality Comes in: Our experiences of gender can intersect with various aspects of our identity like sexuality, culture, race, neurodiversity, and religion. These other identities can interact with and influence how we experience our gender dysphoria.
🌟 Embracing All Experiences: Every experience is unique, valid, and an integral part of the vast spectrum of our identities. It’s crucial to embrace the diversity and expansive aspects of who we are.
You might have been told that who you are is not okay. Some might have told you that they disapprove of you. But the thing is, trans people and non-binary people have always existed.
We have a rich and glorious history across cultures, and across centuries.
It’s not our identities that are the problem. It’s the social stories, and the narratives about our identities that is the problem.
The world is such a difficult place to be trans right now.
But we can start by embracing and accepting all of our identities.
If the journey to understanding gender dysphoria seems daunting, and you seek support... Voda is here to support you.
If you’re looking for mental health support to cope with gender dysphoria, or know someone who does, head over to Voda.
We’re here to support you every step of the way.
You can download Voda here.
With Love and Acceptance,
Voda
