End the blood ban on men who have sex with men. →
shayrhymeswithgay:
Also, if haven’t already done so, please fill out this survey!
Canadian Blood Services (CBS) has launched a survey to get people’s opinion on their ban on blood from men who have sex with men (MSM), which is up until Friday. Please take the time to fill out the survey and circulate it to your contacts. The CBS Board recently recommended that the deferral period for MSM...

I just wrote a story about sad suburban queer kids who experience suicidal urges.
It’s for my creative writing class tomorrow. Most of what’s in the story is based off my own experiences and my friends experiences.
I have to hand out a copy to my thirteen classmates and one to my professor. They will edit the story and we’ll go over it as a group next week.
My queer heart will...

A day in the life
Tumblr, I signed my life away! A local documentary filmmaker is going to make a documentary about my life. He is going to film me for the next two years. He isn’t a student amateur or anything. He is well-established, has won awards, etc. I feel weird about advertising his name all over Tumblr so if you want to stalk his webpage, just send me a private message.
Please keep making me...

email to extended birth family--should I add...
Dear family, This is the person that you knew as ———-. I am transitioning from female to male (FTM transsexual). This is why you may have noticed that my voice is deeper and I have a bit of a mustache. I am sharing this with you because I love and care about you. I want to keep you up-to-date on all the wonderful changes in my life. You can forward this email to folks in...

Ask me interesting questions. Give me word prompts. Link me to photos of hot bear men. It’s Sunday and I am bored.

sometimes I think I consider other people’s feelings over my own way too much. specifically when someone is being oppressive and don’t know that they are.
fine line between compassion and self destruction

SO TRUE.

shayrhymeswithgay asked: Also! Don't feel pressured to change your name for your mom, an employer, or anybody else. My change of name papers sat on my desk for three months before I actually did anything about it. Only do it when it feels good to you.

I have a question. I may not be terribly coherent right now because my mom just used my full birth name a bunch of times and I feel really shitty.
So I sent her my resume with my preferred name on it. She sent back an email. Here is an excerpt:
“By having a cv with one name and a social insurance card with a different name highlights to a company that there is something going on with...

squaredyke-deactivated20120329 asked: Hey. Would you do a minor favor and reblog the link from my blog? Basically, after a hate crime incident in Boone NC, a bunch of people are getting together to attempt to get the hate crime laws in NC amended to include sexuality, gender identity, and gender expression. I'm just trying to spread the word via the tumblr world.

Anyone know of folks looking for a roomie who is any/all of these things: friendly dorky respectful poly non-binary queer glittery zinester bookworm aquarius? I’m good at listening and cuddles and I can also bake really fucking amazing vegan brownies, make convincing cat noises and maintain a marginally successful tumblr.
I’ll be living in Amber’s room at the Tulip Farm until...

I went to inject and put the needle in, felt something move, and took it out without injecting the T. Can I re-use the needle?
Please answer quickly. I have a fear of needles and have had a trying day. I am trying not to freak out.

Sorry mom but
FUCK THAT SHIT.
Sometimes not-nice things need to be said. Silence is disempowering and oppressive. As someone who was raised to be a girl, encouraging your daughter to keep quiet only reinforces the idea that girls have nothing important to contribute because men are supposedly smarter, better, faster, whatever. It also perpetuates ageism in that it implies that the critiques from...

My psychologist called me this evening. I am dropping by his office at 3:10 p.m. tomorrow after I have tea with a friend.
Would you like to know why I am stopping by his office, dear Tumblr?
I’ll give you a hint: it’s not a bad thing.
