don’t give it social media attention or revenue when it premieres
The media industry doesn’t care why you’re watching the series. To it, more views mean more money. If you’re gonna hatewatch it at least pirate it instead of watching it on TV/buying DVD’s/buying stream site downloads.
in 1994 when green day first became famous, they invited pansy division, an openly gay punk band, to open for them for the entire dookie tour knowing full well the responses would be mixed. in 2016/2017, on their revolution radio tour, green day chose only female led punk bands to open for them to help create recognition for these artists in a male dominated scene. this band has always been using their voices for the right reasons and i love them so much for that.
And Against Me! Is opening for them too! A band fronted by a trans woman! Fuck yeah Green Day
If I’m not mistaken, there was a prom somewhere that was cancelled one time because a lesbian couple wanted to go, so Green Day rented a venue and had a prom for them. Not sure about accuracy, my mom told me about that
yes this is true as well!! green day helped to fund and organize this second prom when the first one was cancelled. the second prom was actually open not only to the students of the school, but also to any other lgbtq+ students as well as supporters in the state of mississippi who wanted to attend as well!!
And I don’t mean that in like, some kind of exclusivity “you don’t deserve to be here” kind of thing. I mean that there’s a reason tumblr is 13+. It’s really not a good or healthy place for anyone under 13 to be on. I originally joined when I was barely 13 and I wish I had waited. I ran into so much traumatizing and frankly just viscerally disturbing content. I had so many adults that were completely inappropriate towards me, and so many other things that looking back just terrify me.
I’m not trying to baby anybody. I believe that many under-13-year-olds can handle a lot more than we give them credit for. But that doesn’t make tumblr a safe place for y’all to be. People on here are vicious and toxic and y’all don’t deserve to be worrying about all that on top of the other shit that people your age have to deal with.
Please, you have plenty of time. In the meantime, go post about things on chat/blogging sites that are better monitored to be safe for folks your age. Learn about the world in a safer environment and learn what kind of person you want to be. You’re still in such formative years of your life, please take advantage of them and spend them somewhere other than this hellhole. Then, when you’re 13 (or maybe a little older), come back and join tumblr. And make sure you know your boundaries, and that you enforce them.
trans guy: i feel dysphoric cis ally: ur literally the handsomest manly dude guy bro dude man i ever seen before in my life my guy dude! just because you’re biologically a woman doesnt mean you aren’t super manly and handsome!! honestly wow your jawline is so sharp cut me with your jaw daddy father sir
for cis people asking what they should say, here’s a few suggestions:
– don’t overdo it (the reason why this example is Bad is because the cis person overuses all these masculine words and it’s too extreme).
– don’t say anything about how he is ‘biologically a woman’. never mention that to a trans person. ever.
– don’t shower him with compliments. yes, one or two might be good, but he isn’t asking you to confirm that he looks male (most of the time).
– do show sympathy. tell him you’re sorry that he feels that way and try to comfort him if you can (and if you try to comfort him, refer to the points above this one so you don’t do anything wrong).
– do ask if you can help. if he says that you can’t, leave him alone till he’s feeling better (or maybe try to cheer him up by changing the subject).
– do tell him you’re there for him, if all else fails. if anything, you can make him feel better by reminding him that he has a friend.
I really like this post because it’s honestly really helpful and doesn’t shit on cis people for being ignorant in this situation.
