I am equally intrigued and terrified

My friends: gets costume Idea's for halloween
Me: I'm just gonna wear my Eliza Hamilton dress.
Them: But what about our Sanderson sister's??
Me: Schuyler sister's !!
Everyone else:breaks into song

I have hope for us.
I know this will be the bajillionth time I've mentioned being an lgbtq affirming Christian, but it's taught me a lot.
I've been in my radical right wing family bubble for so long, I never thought that there were reasonable people who could think being lgbt was ok. But the truth is, that population is growing, and I'm happy to be included in that.
The damage that exclusive, hyper religious Christians have done to the queer folks in America is no secret. Luckily, over half of the next generation of Christian leaders are lgbt affirming, and I think that number will grow. Churches of the most rejecting denominations are turning away from that sin and becoming more welcoming and affirming. They're losing the transgender debate and the equal marriage opposition. They're seeing lgbt people as people instead of issues, which is a great first step to dropping the whole sin part altogether. Their hateful ignorance is being shoved in their faces, and yes, by people like us. The American church used to be opposed to the abolition of slavery. Though that was a much more severe crime than the attitudes and acts we witness towards lgbt people today, I have hope that the future church, and just everyone in general, will look back and say "we were wrong".

This is why education is important. It literally saves lives. It has to start with us and where we are. Meet people where they're at, if you can. Talk to people in your communities, if you can. Show them that lgbt rights are human rights. Show them that discriminating against lgbt people is just as ridiculous as discriminating against eye color or the dominant hand. Show them it's part of us. Be kind, prove to them we aren't villains and we don't want to change their core beliefs (I mean, unless their religion/belief system/political party is literally just queerphobia). Show people to move with the times, because human decency should be timeless.

We're not the first, but I hope to God we're the last.

This is very reassuring. There are a lot more new generation Christians that support LGBTQ+ (even if they themselves are not part of it) and it makes me happy.

Honestly we need queer leaders in the church for this exact reason.

Speaking of discrimination based on eye color, have y'all ever seen/heard of Jane Elliot's brown eye/blue eye experiment??? It's more targeted at trying to understand racial inequalities, but it's really interesting nonetheless.

Yep, We actually JUST watched a video in my Human Behavior class.

I have not, I’ll definitely do some research on that in my free time

Big agree to Owen's post <3

My new binders came in the mail today and I’m so fucking happy because my old one was basically dead and this new one is soooo comfy and just absolutely fantastic to wear. I got my first one off of Amazon and it didn’t fit super well along with being just plain uncomfortable so I went to GC2B and this! Binder! Is! Actually! Good! And it’s much better in terms of sensory processing and stuff.

Can you guys censor the use of f/mb/y? It’s a transphobic slur that happens to be particularly triggering to me, if that makes sense. Sorry to be annoying!

I'm sorry-
I was just going with the meme, I won't use it from now on.

No! You’re fine! Sorry about being weird about stuff!

Just a bit of background, since femboy is actually one of my favorite words. It was originally intended to insult effeminate gay men, along with words like twink and Nancy. Transphobes have shifted the term femboy from homophobic to transphobic. Instead of it recognizing a man's femininity, in some transphobic circles it's used to expose the "core femininity" of transboys. As if to say "I'll play along, but he's still a girl." Less frequently in the transphobic circles, it can be used to cruedly describe transwomen, since transphobes veiw transwomen as merely drag queens, gay men, or traps. However, nowadays the more common transphobic terms used against transwomen are ladyboy and sheman. Similarly, they view transmen as dykes (lesbians).
As a non binary person, I actually kind of view myself as a femboy/twink- I like my inherit masculinity to be recognized while also presenting femininly. Even though I'm not a man, I strongly associate with feminine men, a sort of middle ground of gender expression. Both terms, twink and femboy, have been pretty much reclaimed along with queer, and I've also noticed tranny being used non offensively in trans circles (though do continue censoring upon request). Many gay men proudly claim the titles femboy or twink, and some enbies like myself feel the labels suit them as well.
