Adventures in Transliness
My sister is home for the next few days, so tonight my mom, my sister and I went out to dinner (my dad’s away for the night).
I’ve come to expect that when going out with other people, I will probably be read as the same perceived gender as my company. So I was prepared tonight to be misread as female. It sucks, but it’s nothing new. I work with almost all women so it happens at...
It was definitely the first time I worked on something where I completely felt...

If I hear “people are too sensitive” one more time I’m gonna commit a crime. People aren’t “too sensitive” for feeling offended by gay jokes, rape jokes, dumb women jokes, race jokes, et. al. Assholes with privilege to throw around decide what’s funny and anyone who takes offense lacks a sense of humor.
Fuck this planet.

Note: I just found this, unfinished, in my drafts folder and decided to try and finish it to post. It’s a few weeks old at this point. While currently I’m in no great emotional turmoil, this is still completely relevant to my daily experience. I think it’s important to say.
I’m not even quite sure how to say what’s on my mind tonight, so I’m just going to...

Hey gaybeans. The song your ears will hear if you press play is called “Free,” and it was written especially for Everyone Is Gay by Miss Ingrid Michaelson.
It is the seventh track on The Gayest Compilation Ever Made, and this week only you can buy the single for $2!
Go and getcha some!

I’m bored.
What happens before my dad puts in his hearing...
*He's upstairs, I'm downstairs. My family uses my middle name*
Dad: Max?
Me: Yeah?
Dad: Max?
Me: What!!!?!!
Dad: MAX?
Me: WHAT DO YOU WANT!?
Dad: Where are you?
Me: Downstairs.
Dad: ...Are you in your room?
Me: No, I'm downstairs!!!
*Dad gets up, checks my room, then walks to the top of the stairs. I'm standing at the bottom.*
Me: What do you want?
Dad: Can you help Mom with the groceries?
Me: Yes. That's why I'm here...put in your hearing aids.
Dad: What?
Me: PUT IN YOUR HEARING AIDS!
Dad: *laughing* What?

I think there was a misunderstanding by the OP here - the criticism for re-appropriating “fag” or “faggot” was not against gay trans men in general (that would indeed be transphobic). It was against the “hey fun!” approprition that mainly happened in drag king and transgender communities during…

And so it was, that at the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con, that the entire cast had a table read for the 13th episode, the unaired season finale, in front of thousands of fans. It was as humorous, heartwarming, and ultimately as optimistic as the rest of the show was. Immediately after, it was announced that a comic for that final episode would be released. The show had come full circle.
