Some Of Y'all Are Worse Than Facebook Moms Throwing Tantrums About Being Called Cisgender

Some of y'all are worse than Facebook moms throwing tantrums about being called cisgender

Why the fuck do some people just wanna be intersex so damn bad? Why does it piss these people off so bad to be reminded they're not intersex? What will it take to keep perisex people from talking over us?

If you believe shit like this, you;

Don't know what intersex means

Fetishize/idealize intersex bodies

Are too immature to accept when something isn't about you

Needless to say; No. An intersex body is NOT always similar to a person trans person's body. There isn't just one way a person can be intersex. We deserve non-pathologizing words to describe ourselves and advocate for our recognition as a natural variation in human anatomy. We deserve spaces to discuss our health and our issues, we're already drowned out by perisex people enough as it is. An intersex person, cis or trans, with Salt-wasting CAH or Sawyer syndrome or pre-cancerous ovotestes or Turner syndrome (+ others) has a far different body with far different needs than any perisex trans person. My variation is not life-threatening or disabling, but it DOES cause medical complications and is a huge headache for my doctors at times! I do not share these issues with perisex trans people! It is not fucking transphobic or ""eugenicist"" to say that!

Perisex does not imply any specific body type.

Perisex only implies a lack of naturally occurring intersex traits.

Perisex ≠ Cissexual

A perisex body can look like anything. Just as an intersex body can look like anything. Being trans puts you outside the 'sex binary', it makes you sex-variant, but it does not make you intersex.

If you believe it is possible to medically transition into Intersexuality, you must also believe medical abuse successfully 'fixes' us, and makes us perisex.

Referring to words coined & used by intersex people to differentiate our bodies from our oppressors as "eugenicist" is deeply intersexist and frankly fucking entitled.

Yes. I did say perisex people are an oppressor class. You can be a marginalized person and still be part of an oppressive majority (example, I am white). If this makes you angry, that's not my problem, it's yours. You need to recognize your privilege as a perisex person before you can be an ally to intersex people.

Trans-inclusive gender-neutral anatomy talk is funny because it makes the human body sound so casual and recreational. "If you happen to have a dick" like one would happen to have a bag of golf clubs somewhere around here. Like you have one of those for hobby purposes or something. Got an uterus because it came with the house and you haven't gotten around to hiring a professional to get that removed.

Apparently I'm one of the few people who gets really negative side effects from PrEP.

Ever since I started taking it, I've been extremely nauseous pretty much every day, I've had a lot of really negative stomach symptoms, and I've had a pretty much constant migraine.

I figured that these were just temporary side effects but it's been like a week and it just keeps getting worse. The only new medication I've started during this time was the truvada, since my birth control was on back order and I've been on testosterone for a lot longer than I've been on truvada, so it's the most likely culprit.

I really don't want to stop taking it, because I am a trans man who mostly dates gay and bisexual men and I am polyamorous so I date outside of my relationship, but I don't know if I can live my normal life just constantly being sick like I have the flu.

I understand that prep is a really good medication for people to be on but, unfortunately, it seems like it can have side effects that just don't make it worth it, or at least don't make it worth it to me as someone who is already extremely careful about STD prevention.

It really sucks because I want to be on this medication for my own safety just to be sure, because you never know, dating sites are fucked up, but unfortunately I don't think I can keep taking it.

Bummer.

My goddess, my muse...
