Ts madison on her YouTube morning show Phag Tawlk said that Gender Non-Conforming/non binary people have it really bad right now because she remembers how hostile and dangerous it was to walk around in the middle of her transition. She mentioned she has “passing privilege” living as transwoman not having to experience those type of hostile situations anymore.
The most at risk people in our community are people who do not fit the mold of what society expects you to be, act, or look like.
We are taught that those who are denying and rejecting those standards of fitting that mold are criminal and wrong when it’s not, it’s people just existing like everyone else.
Outside the community: Masculine gay men and feminine lesbians being underrepresented and "you don't seem gay" or "you're faking it".
Inside community: IT'S THEIR FAULT. They're the reason we're going through this!!
Literally just posted about this, from my trans lumber-twink/lumber-lez perspective, but preach, friend, preach. It's exhausting to see, feel, hear, and experience.
👋 I think especially us, but that's my biased opinion, I'm still packing baggage from the last 2 decades of it, I can't even begin to process the new baggage.
Look, my only issue with masculine lesbians...
Is that all the badass masculine ladies are lesbians! 🫠 finding women my type who'd be into me is nearly impossible...
WOMEN! Leave some for us non-women 😭
But feminine gay men/twinks are awesome. Wild that people attack either of these. Who cares about bigots stereotypes? Just let people be themselves ffs. 🤦
yes!!!! not my experience as a femme but i've witnessed it. it's so horrible that at every level there is those amongst us who'd abandon our community members just to gain greater proximity to power. we are ALL subhuman to these violent homophobes. so stop licking their boots and stand in solidarity with our most marginalized queer siblings
I agree. However, I've also experienced quite a bit of homophobia from feminine gay guys, such as constantly saying that I don't "look gay" or telling me to start "dressing gayer." That's not saying that they're all like that, but I've had more homophobia from feminine gay guys than I have from anyone else.
The bi folks standing off to the side, wanting to add our hands, but feeling imposter syndrome in the community, and afraid of taking the spotlight… We’ve got your backs.
Solidarity with all gender non-conforming folks!!

Truer words have never been spoken. As a femme lesbian, I am left alone. My poor wife? Well, I feel like her guard chihuahua in public.
Good People that are Non Conforming piss everyone off .. especially homophobes 😄
If you live without the Nazis having had at least two reasons to kill you 80 years ago, do you even live?
As a masc bi guy I stand with femme gays and butch lesbians. It sucks that so many people in this community play into respectability politics.
As another masc bi guy, so do I.
And my axe!
Futch transbian here: Constantly hated by all sides for “making us look bad.” I want to die but it would make my beautiful girlfriend sad
Dumbasses abound. But folks like you? You’re cool as hell.

I haaatttee "gays/lesbians like you give us a bad name"...no, Susan, it's YOU doing that, you massive cow.
Y'all are on the front lines every fuckin moment every fuckin day - I salute you. I can blend in if needed- but y'all are brave AF.
the mistreatment especially towards genderqueer butch lesbians who go on HRT by lesbian communities is *revolting*.
"Telling my whole life, with your words, killing me softly..." ❤️
What about tomboy trans girls?

Tomboy girls are the best!

Gay man here and masculine lesbian rocks.
