Trans Anger Is Justified. I Have Been Told My Entire Life That Who I Am Was Less Important Than How People
Trans anger is justified. I have been told my entire life that who I am was less important than how people feel about me and when I came out, I was bombarded with denial. I've been told that I'm predatory simply because I am trans, I've been called names, I've been put under the microscope dozens of times.
If trans anger makes you uncomfortable, know that transphobia has made millions of trans people uncomfortable and unsafe.

it doesnt matter what all of the intricacies of your identity are, if lesbian resonates with you, if lesbianism is where you find your home, your a lesbian through and through. you can have the most complex, confusing, or even "contradicting" gender and/or orientation, and youre still just as valid as any other lesbian! you dont need to worry about how others perceive you, or how others try to define words for the whole community, because they dont have an actual say in how you can identify or how anyone can use a word (bc words arent static and dont mean just one thing all the time and everywhere).
all queer labels can be open and fluid! all of them are available to the messy, complex existences so many of us fall into! just because we dont fall into cookie cutter molds that society wants of us, doesnt mean we dont exist, that we have to force ourselves to fit them- we deserve to exist in our own way and be our incredible, unique selves đ
heres to every lesbian with complex identities, i love you and im here for you! đđđ¸
ok like. when you reblog a âmen are trashâ post by a terf shes literally talking about both trans women AND cis men. there is no distinction for the terf, donât promote or give terfs a platform period.
Intersex Terminology Masterpost
This post updates regularly, so please check the notes before reading or reblogging to find the most recent version. Click the links to read more (pride flags too) and feel free to add on! All terms are intersex exclusive unless otherwise stated.
General Terms
Intersex (Adj.) - A term to describe those who were born with a sex variation that led to having sex characteristics that arenât traditionally male or female. Abbreviation is IS. Noun form is Intersexness (the word I personally use is Intersexuality). Read more here.
Dyadic (Adj.) - A term meaning âof twoâ used by intersex people to describe those who are not IS. Noun form is Dyad(s).Â
Perisex (Adj.) - A term whose prefix means âaround,â ânear,â used and coined intersex people to describe those who are not IS.
Endosex (Adj) - A term whose prefix means âwithinâ used and coined by intersex people to describe those who are not IS.
Juxtasex (Adj) - A term whose prefix means âclose toâ used and coined by intersex people to describe those who are not IS.
Variation - A term used to refer to the cause of someoneâs intersexuality. It is generally to be used instead of condition/disorder/etc. Variations can involve chromosomal, hormonal, and/or gonadal differences. There are some variations listed on LGBTA Wikia, the main source for this masterpost.
DSD - An abbreviation meaning either âdifference of sexual developmentâ or âdisorder of sexual development.â The latter should not be used, and Variation is generally to be used over DSD. (Link contains list of Variations)
Intersexism / Inter(sex)phobia - The discrimination, prejudice, dislike, and hatred of and towards IS people.
Dyadism - [TW] The belief that being Dyadic is normal, correct, the default, etc., and that IS people are unnatural, wrong, diseased/deformed, insignificant, etc. Can also be called Perisexism, Endosexism, or Juxtasexism.
Assignment Related [TW]
Sex Assignment - Different from gender assignment, sex assignment is the process by which a personâs âbiological sexâ is determined. Everyone is assigned a sex and gender at birth, and for intersex people, sex assignment can be complicated and traumatic (see; IGM and Forced/Coerced HRT).
AXAB - Assigned âXâ At Birth. For IS people who did not have a sex assigned to them at birth. A similar term is UAB.
AIABÂ - Assigned Intersex At Birth. For IS people whose intersexuality was recognized at birth. May be used in place of/alongside âAXAB.â
IAFAB / IAMABÂ - âIntersex Assigned Female At Birthâ and âIntersex Assigned Male At Birth.â For IS people regardless of when their intersexuality was recognized.
CAFAB / CAMAB - âCoercively Assigned Female At Birthâ and âCoercively Assigned Male At Birth.â These terms are not intersex exclusive and are generally used to underline the fact that gender assignment is nonconsensual. [TW] In the IS community these may be used to describe people who underwent IGM or other medical methods of assignment.
FAFAB / FAMAB - âForcibly Assigned Female At Birthâ and âForcibly Assigned Male At Birth.â Used similarly to CAMAB / CAMAB in the intersex community.
IGMÂ - [TW] Infant/Intersex Genital Mutilation. Used by IS people in reference to the surgical procedures used to alter intersex peopleâs genitalia/remove internal organs in order to assign or reassign our sex and/or gender.
Forced/Coerced HRT - [TW] Forced/Coerced âHormone Replacement Treatmentâ is an experience that probably deserves its own name independent of HRT, however is called this due to lack of terminology. It refers to the hormones given w/o proper consent to IS people in order to make us appear dyadic. It also may be given as a result of IGM impairing or destroying organs responsible for the production of certain hormones.
Gender Identities
Intergender - A gender that is in some form linked to being intersex. Also known as Integender or Mera.  A similar identity is Amalgagender.

Interandrogyne - A form of Androgyne that is connected or influenced by oneâs intersexuality. A specific inteÂŽgender. Similar to Duogender and not to be confused with Interandrogynous. [Coined by me]
Divisigender - A gender that is distinct and wholly separate from male and female experienced as a result of oneâs intersexuality. A specific inteÂŽgender.Â
Neutroix - A gender that feels completely neutral, especially related to oneâs intersexuality. Similar to Neutrois, but for intersex people only. A specific inteÂŽgender.
Ingender - A form of Agender that is experienced as a result of oneâs intersexuality. Also known as Vacagender or Intergenderless. A specific inteÂŽgender.

Resbis - A term to describe an intersex person who feels regularly conflicted by and is trying to reconcile with their gender identity, or who feels they have in the past struggled with their gender identity, but who has now reached a state of harmony with their gender. Not to be confused with Rebis.
Trans-Intersexual - A term for IS people who feel as if theyâre both biological sexes and do not fit into the categories of âmale or female.â These people fit the categories of both intersex and transgender people. Not to be confused with Transgender-Intersex.
