The funniest thing I ever did on tumblr dot com is send myself an anon ask apologizing for a previous anonymous ask that was being transphobic. I then publicly answered to say, thank you for doing the right thing and then I turned off anonymous asks. That was 7 years ago, and I just found this sitting in my inbox:
Imagine logging on and seeing that your mortal enemy has finally decided to admit the truth after 7 years but now you’re being clowned on by 10 thousand people
this needs to be the new solution for obnoxious anon asks bc 1.) it’s non combative and immediately fizzles out their objective of spreading hate 2.) it’s funny as hell bc you immediately get control. you don’t ever have to post their “THAT’S NOT ME” message and the only way for them to debunk it is to come off anon which. they won’t lmao
There is a gang war in LA. The first gang to get to 100 kills, gets to take over that part of the city. You NEED to be careful, Mark. You could be at high risk because of your high status. PLEASE be safe, everyone in or around LA, and please reblog this to get it to the youtubers in LA.
There’s nothing funnier than American Trad Caths revealing that they’re just Presbyterians that think Baroque looks cool
Oh my fucking god all this is too fucking funny. Lucking forward to having an anti-pope in Houston, Texas. Instead of the pointy hat maybe he can wear a white cowboy hat.
I need people to stop being so funny because I can’t keep re blogging this shit
Not me explaining that here on Tumblr tits is a gender neutral term for big chests unless the person has said they don’t like it
On a serious note people being unironically horny about cis men and referring to their chests as tits in their horny rantings has made me feel more comfortable as someone who is transmasc
Like I don’t have huge dysphoria about my chest because I’m not very well endowed but I still have some and like thinking: “I’m a sexy dude with sexy tits” is actually a good feeling for me personally
50% of the notes is other trans people either going “oh yeah me too!” Or “I’m still uncomfortable with it being used for me but I like that it helps others”
““Sworn virgins” (burrneshas in Albanian) are Albanian women who decide to ignore their female identity and live as men in the Balkans. Photographer Jill Peters traveled to Northern Albania to meet and photograph these women. The decision to live as men is more related to gender roles in the Albanian culture rather than a statement of sexuality; these women live their lives appearing as men.
Sworn virgins have existed for centuries. According to tradition dating back to the 15th century developed out of the Kanun, a tribal code of law, tribal clans from the Balkans considered families without a male presence as pariahs. When blood feuds decimated all the men in a family, the only way to salvage their honor was for a woman to become the patriarch of the clan and start acting like a man.”
