I read through articles from people influential in the coining of antitransmasculinity and have updated the essay citating them, and one essay in particular that I feel is an excellent read. I am incredibly happy to have had a wonderful mutual link me to these sources!

Alan prefers to keep his hair long enough to pull back in a ponytail. He'd keep it even longer if not for regulation reasons. Alan would deny caring, but he's 100% fussy about his appearance. Sven cuts his own hair if that's not obvious.

(Picture of their first meeting for reference lol).

Rigorously researched/cited, critically considered, and rich with yearning, exhaustion, and hope, this is another great essay in this series examining various representations of trans men in media (with a generous side of history in this case especially!)

Since I last post about this we’ve reached $1,915. The bill is still a big and stressful hit but y’all’s help so far has taken some of the highest of the pressure off, thank you 🖤

Little dog is doing good (is so bored!) and will go get her stitches off in a couple of days :)
Hi everyone, my sweet little dog had a really gruesome freak accident yesterday. Survived it pretty miraculously, but my partner and I are broke and facing new medical debt in order to make that possible. Any help would mean a great deal 🖤🙏

95% of authors are not making a living through book publishing. The public needs to understand this.

the effect alcohol has on me is very funny, but different hard alcohol hit differently. In general though, it like erases my anxiety and makes me relaxed/happy, but also like more passionate...which I am beginning to understand how that corresponds to helping me write with more confidence

Finally read this one. And this one hurts.
There is this brand of radical feminism outlined in these passages, for whom women must not betray other women, for whom the male gaze is so horrible, they reenact it every chance they get. Trans men and trans masc people do not count to them.

I have 21 days left before I need to make a down payment on the top surgery I've sought for years! With your help, I can raise the remaining $312 out of $1000 I need via the links.

Thank you for helping me reclaim my mountains ⛰️⛰️

I adore boyfriends. So much 🥹

But I was on the fence for a long while on whether I wanted top surgery (mostly scared tbh) and when goth had his first beach day post op? It clicked in me. I *wanted* that. I couldn’t deny it was something I needed anymore. I really value it for seeing myself there

What’s it like being a trans man advocating for his rights to reproductive healthcare and asking not to be referred to as a woman?

Well I’m glad you asked.

Trans Men/Mascs in Storytelling is at about 70 pages right now, and I finished 7/31, we're not even half done, friends! For the ebook and POTENTIALLY print, I want to have a Q&A in there as a treat, what questions do you want answers to? Ask them here and I'll save them!

I'm so thankful for the heroes who have archived pdfs of articles from the 70s, you have no idea how valuable they've been to my writing and general research on trans and feminist history

I'm not sure how to say this, so I'll just, uh...try.
I think a lot about how the intracommunity trans discourse cycle rewards trans people for being cruel to other trans people, and how things said in anger are used then to dismiss the valuable work a lot of writers make. It's why I stay out of it
