      Arthur Chu Retweeted Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li

      This is the whole basis behind stuff like a movement around "Black Is Beautiful", or calling the gay parades in the wake of the Stonewall riots "Pride" Refusing to settle for the table scraps called "tolerance", saying "No fuck you, BEING ME IS AWESOME AND SOMETHING TO ADMIRE"https://twitter.com/perdricof/status/1377809348118904832 …

      as i have said elsewhere being trans is good, actually it sounds like a banality but it is in fact a rather important point

      And the majority always hates this "Black Is Beautiful" got mocked to hell and back by shitty white people, who want to forget that MLK himself quoted it in a speech There's endless concern trolling around the concept of "gay pride" -- "Can't they just stay home and be normal"

      And the idea of transness as a positive good in the world, something to celebrate, gets shot through with arrows from all sides as soon as you take it outdoors They've worn that South Park "STUNNING AND BRAVE" meme into the fucking ground

      And yeah, you know what, it is Even the shittiest nastiest worst person in the world (which Caitlyn Jenner, frankly, isn't, much as I don't particularly like her) would still be "stunning and brave" for transitioning Precisely because of this shitty meme

      Precisely because something that, independent of all the other vices and failings and baggage of the person doing it, IS A FUNDAMENTALLY GOOD AND BEAUTIFUL THING, will without fail be attacked as a perversion, as delusional narcissism, as self-involved psychological brokenness

      Any transition, any coming out of the closet, any act of saying "The box I was born into and expected to occupy is wrong and I'm picking a different one" is an act of liberation, a chain being broken, the world becoming a tiny bit less of the suffocating prison it usually is

      And it's so fucking easy for every other shitty peanut gallery loser to sneer at that To put on the uniform of a guard even though every single one of us is really here as an inmate, to find power in mocking and tearing down the idea of escape as a fantasy for immature freaks

          Amelia Bloody Rose Retweeted Amelia Bloody Rose

          The "escape is for the immature" thing has such a weird conclusion to it, as well, as illustrated by the people who are very mad at that nice dad because he's surrounding his kid with supportive, accepting people instead of vicious assholeshttps://twitter.com/AmeliaRoseWrite/status/1377812620422483968 …

          Amelia Bloody Rose @AmeliaRoseWrite
          Whoops, I happened across some TERF objections to this thread and apparently one of their main complaints is that he is a bad parent for keeping his daughter in a bubble, so apparently curating a support system of safe adults and screening out the vicious assholes is child abuse?

          Replying to @arthur_affect

          My parents rejection of my trans ness and attempts to make me cis were pretty mild. They weren’t religious, they weren’t outraged, it was just “babe you’d be so much happier if you could live a normal life.” And I spent years in drug addiction, a half dozen suicide attempts.
