Trans Female - Tumblr Posts
This is an amazing story writen by my friend, Cat. It is a wonderful drama with a beautiful love story. Check it out!!!
So, here we are! I’m really excited to finally share some of this story with you.
I SEE YOU is a romance / thriller set in 1950’s Paris and is the story of Roberta and Pierre.
I have specifically chosen today, 31st March, to share more about Roberta with you - because today is International Transgender Visibility Awareness Day, and that matters because Roberta is a transwoman.
So often in media and literature, people who identify as transgender have very poor representation, and it rarely seems to be positive. Trans characters are often portrayed as sex workers and often meet a nasty end. How many stories have a trans woman as not only the main protagonist, but also one of the romantic leads? I wanted to try and change that.
Here I present the prologue and first 2 chapters (which are still unedited and a work in progress) but as a teaser for the rest of the story to come, hopefully late 2021, or early 2022.
I will state these chapters are rated mature which includes sexual content.
Also, I will add as a trigger warning, that Roberta is in a relationship that falls under “dubious consent”. This will become clearer as to why as the story progresses, however it is not down to her gender identity – if you want to know more, please message me!
Once the full draft is completed, I will be looking for people to complete sensitivity reads. If you are interested, or know someone who might be, please message me!
I hope you enjoy the teaser. I SEE YOU is important to me, and I hope this story, when finally released, is able to add some positivity to trans representation in the media.
I know her eyes are wonky and off but hey ''practice makes perfect'' like the old saying goes.X3 And I like it.^^ Sakura from my series FNTO!X3
Day 21: Adora. The start of a collection of D and D characters.

REBLOG if you would date a trans woman 🌸
HP-like LGBT Books (not written by a TERF)
In no particular order. These are only books I’ve read and enjoyed. There are more out there and I will add them to the list as I make my way through them.
1. The Grimoire of Grave Fates created by Hanna Alkaf & Margaret Owen and written by 18 diverse authors: several non-binary characters, a trans woman, two trans boys + some f/f and m/m. This is an incredible collaboration! The students investigate the murder of a close-minded professor at their magic school.
2. Simon Snow by Rainbow Rowell: m/m. This is the most famous one. I wouldn’t mind a TV adaptation, or even movies, but that sounds less likely.
3. A Hero at the End of the World by Erin Claiborne: m/m. This one is cute and funny. It doesn’t hurt that the cover art is gorgeous.
4. Tim Te Maro and the Subterranean Heartsick Blues by HS Valley: m/m (YA, but very sexual). Simon Snow meets Sex Education, with a fake baby assignment. Simply hilarious!
5. Three Meant To Be by MN Bennet: m/m + a trans boy and an ace girl. This is a magic school adult book, focused on a teacher, though the students are all very interesting too. I adore the magic system.
6. Gallowgate by KR Alexander: queer male protagonist (MG). This one is about learning how to hunt ghosts and has horror vibes.
7. Magic University by Cecilia Tan: m/f and m/m, as the protagonist is bisexual + some trans characters (erotica). This series is surprisingly my favourite, even though I’m very picky with erotica.
8. It Ends in Fire by Andrew Shvarts: m/f and f/f, as the protagonist is bisexual + a non-binary minor character. This takes place in a heroic fantasy setting. I love the magic system.
9. Scholars and Sorcery by Eleanor Beresford: f/f (novellas). This short series is super sweet. It’s mostly about life at the magic school.
10. Magic for Liars by Sarah Gailey: f/f-ish (content warning: murder mystery about a dead queer woman). If you’re looking for something darker, go for this one.
11. [French] L'éveil des sorcières by Cordélia: lesbian major character (MG). This is another cute and funny one, with a lot of diversity. It hasn’t been translated so far, but I’ll keep you updated.
12. When the Letter Comes by Sara Fox: trans girl protagonist (short story). It’s a little sad at first, but it gets better. You can read it legally and for free here.
13. DIY by John Wiswell: queerplatonic m/nb (short story). It’s about climate change and capitalism and also has disability representation. You can read it legally and for free here.
14. My Name is Magic by Xan van Rooyen: f/nb + a major queer male character. I love that this story is inspired by Finnish folklore. There’s a strong focus on protecting nature as magic is being consumed too fast.
15. Trans Wizard Harriet Porber by Chuck Tingle: trans woman protagonist (weird erotica for a laugh). This is the biggest crack I’ve ever read, as well as the biggest F*** You to transphobia.
16. This Is How We Fly by Anna Meriano: the protagonist is questioning her gender identity + some non-binary characters and some f/f (non-magical). This is a novel about muggle quidditch, a co-ed sport where “the gender that a player identifies as is considered to be that player’s gender.”
17. Brooms written by Jasmine Walls and illustrated by Teo DuVall: some f/f + a trans woman major character (graphic novel). A group of diverse women take part in unsanctioned team broom races.
