Kayla @kayladares.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I have no idea how 20 yo me would react to the gender stuff, but he'd hate how my life currently is otherwise for all the reasons I did and largely still do. and be anxious as shit about it in the same way I am but way moreso cause it was all unconscious guardrails. 100

I literally cannot believe that they let Lana Wachowski make a $190 million love letter to transition. 4583
Reposted by Kaylato wound the autumnal kitty @blurry-line.bsky.social · 22/05/2026It is true that these spellings are widely considered outdated, and I'm pretty sure contemporary transphobes use them *now* specifically because they know a lot of us don't like them. But it's important not to rewrite our history. 0151
Reposted by Kaylato wound the autumnal kitty @blurry-line.bsky.social · 22/05/2026I'm seeing claims that the spellings "transwoman" and "transman" were invented by terves. It's not true. They were common in-community terms until the mid-2010s, appearing in writings by S. Bear Bergman (2006), Susan Stryker (2008) and Dean Spade (2011). Julia Serano was an early critic in 2013. 1153

Kayla @kayladares.bsky.social · 07/12/2025I remember in the 90s how the Nazi phrase of "Papieren bitte" (papers please) was often used as a response to things considered fascist. NO ONE in the US should EVER be required to have identification on them. Yes yes buying alcohol etc are clear exceptions; no one should ever be penalized for 120

Like I have to sit there and really absorb it for a few seconds because it's just so much time play-acting at being something I'm not, in literally every aspect of my life. 1315

Reposted by Kayla⚡⚡MAD DOCTOR IMPOSSIBLE⚡⚡ @impossiblephd.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Very much this. A gender dysphoria diagnosis is a lot like a diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy (tingly and painful fingers)--it's the result of something else: being forced to live as someone we're not. That's inherently traumatic. And treating symptoms will never resolve either condition. 13610
Kayla @kayladares.bsky.social · 29/06/2025yes! please read the whole thing! It's a great character arc to read, and full of great little unexpected details. I already knew a bit about trans stuff so the more obvious bits didn't land but the panel about "you don't identify with yourself" hit like a brick to the head. bsky.app/profile/maeg... 110
Kayla @kayladares.bsky.social · 23/06/2025I just figure: 1. older term from a pretty particular cultural context (African American Ballroom scene) 2. therefore in-group in intent and implications 3. out of context becomes very hit or miss because all that is lost 4. implications become a free for all the more people use it based on vibes. 100
Kayla @kayladares.bsky.social · 20/06/2025yeah. the fact some people don't want or can't access hrt and are still trans and correctly their gender, doesn't mean wanting hrt (or other medical interventions) is "transphobic" or misogynistic or assimilationist. 110
