Trans rights activist Hande Kader was raped and burned to death in Turkey

In Turkey, the LGBTQ community is mourning the loss of transgender rights activist and sex worker Hande Kader. Kader’s body was found raped and brutally burned on Aug. 12 in Istanbul and now activists across the world are demanding justice for her death and the greater violence inflicted upon the the LGBTQ community. While homosexuality is not illegal in Turkey, discrimination and violence against the LGBTQ community is staggering. 

I'm not transgender because

A letter to my mother for trans visibility day, that I know she’ll never see.

Mom:

I’m not transgender because when I was a child I wanted a remote control car. I’m transgender because when, that year, you bought two for my brother and a dollhouse for me, I blamed myself for not being able to appreciate it anyway. Because I thought something was wrong with me. Because it stung more than it should have.

I’m not transgender because I never liked to wear dresses. I’m transgender because the day you drove me to that party and asked me to put on that pretty new dress, I chose instead to wait in the car, crying and alone, because for reasons I couldn’t understand the fact that they wouldn’t allow me inside otherwise terrified me.

I’m not transgender because one of my happiest middle school memories was the day a girl asked me out. I’m transgender because regardless of whether or not I was attracted to her, the fact that she had mistaken me for a boy long enough to ask me out didn’t bother me like it “should have”. Because when I later told you about it and you gave me that sympathetic look and said you were sorry, I didn’t understand why you weren’t laughing. Why you weren’t happy like I was.

I’m not transgender because I don’t like what I see when I look in the mirror. I’m transgender because after years of struggling to accept my body I can finally say with some amount of confidence that it’s a good one, and the only thing wrong with it is that it’s wasted on me.

I’m not transgender because I want to be. I’m transgender because I am, and I’m just sorry it took me so long to have the courage to tell you. Because after a lifetime of struggling to find some joy in playing at being the “daughter you always wanted”, I happened to discover that yes, some traditionally “feminine” things can be enjoyable too.

But dresses are just dresses, mom. Toy cars are toy cars. Attraction is attraction.

I wish you would just trust me.

you’re fucking up if you don’t back this guy

So last night my friends and I decided that we were all going to go to the Donald Trump Rally in Columbus Ohio, our hometown. We went not in support of him, but to get extra credit in humanities. When we got in we decided we were going to silently protest until two college students came up us and asked if we were supporting him. They we’re a bit shocked when we told them that we weren’t. Trump was late on the stage but about 40 minutes of listening to him ramble about himself he decide to bring up terrorism. He began to speak about how we shouldn’t let in Syrian refugees anymore when the two collage students with us began to chant “Hating Muslims helps ISIS!” until Trump noticed. He kept looking at us, trying to talk over my friends who began joining in. Surrounding people told us to shut up but they kept chanting. Finally Trump had enough and told his people to “get them the hell out of here!” This is a video that I took before his people began to push and grab us forcing us to leave after exercising the first amendment of the freedom of speech. As we were leaving my friends and I were called the N word, N word lovers, terrorist, towel heads, faggots, fuckers, etc. (I think you get the point) later on news websites it states that there were only “two protestors” when there really were about ten of us. People commented in those videos that we were conducting illegal activity while his followers were giving us death threats. This experience was honestly one of the most terrifying things that I have ever done. It was worth it though, and not everyone there was in support of him. I just want you guys to know the truth, thank you for reading this far down too. Please share this so the incident gets more recognition.

just a friendly reminder that i’m literally an angel (they/them)

The Third Gender of Zapotec Society

In the Mexican state of Oaxaca you will find the matriarchal Zapotec society of Juchitán. The families prefer girls to boys, and some assigned male at birth are therefore raised as girls. They become “muxe” (pronounced “mucha”).

Some marry women and have children while others choose men as sexual or romantic partners. According to the Wikipedia, muxe may do certain kinds of women’s work such as embroidery or decorating home altars, but others do the male work of making jewelry. In village communities muxe may be highly respected, while in larger, more Westernised towns they can face discrimination.

“Brown eyed people are responsible for the fact that you have electricity. Many of the components for generating and transmitting electricity were invented by brown eyed people.

Brown eyed people gave us our alphabet. Brown eyed people gave us our numeration system. Brown eyed people gave us the paper on which we write these anonymous letters to me that tell me that brown eyed people are inferior.

Brown eyed people are the originators, the ones who founded every major religion on Earth. No white people have ever founded a major religion.

Now you need to realize the contributions that have been made to society, to civilization by brown eyed people, by PEOPLE OF COLOR.

I’m talking about people of color here folks. And most of us are not aware of those things because we live in a racist society.

And because we are educated by a racist school system that only teaches us about white contributions.”
