On Trans Narratives
Callie Wright, in an interview on the podcast “Gender Reveal” made a really good point about how our stories are often told in such a way as to not be about *us* but to be about the situation and struggles and adaptations of those around us.
This is what happens when cis people tell our stories. Even when they do it well, they center the cis characters. The cis partners of trans folks. The parents of trans children. The adult children of older trans folks.
Our perspectives aren’t considered nearly as relatable and so they are set aside.
And this is one of the reasons I love “Nevada”—at the end of the day it’s half Maria’s story and half James’ but in no way is it about cis people.
One day I hope I have a story worth telling, and you can best believe it will center us.
@efi sorry, *was't r'lly'tht obv's
@efi was it really that obvious?

Trans -, some caps
When b8nders work, they look like a sportsbra on me.
When they don't I cry, feel like shit, and take it off until the next time I get tired of bras.
I knew binders would be a minefeild.
Do all tmascs a favor, and whenever you see them distressing about their chest, maybe don't suggeat binders as a midway, because frankly:
1. We've heard it
2. It's not the same
3. It doesn't always work
4. THAT DOESN'T GET RID OF THE PROBLEM
