Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is despair, hope…

A more simple way of making the argument for trans inclusion without logic chopping would be: how could God, whom the scriptures describe as pure Love and Goodness itself, and who was revealed as a healer in Christ,

@The_Laddergal Hehe I had like 2 friends from middle school come out as trans similarly

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

Personally I never fit in with guys and I think I sorta always longed for female friendships but didn’t know how to as a “guy” so I just ended up super awkward in middle school/ highschool… I do have some masculine interests but socialization wouldn’t be one per se

[lottie to my friends @rhovanielle]

people will say trans women have 'masculine socialisation' like i wasn't reading autostraddle when i was 14 sksksjkdlfgasdk;jfh

If accepting myself as trans was the discovery of Newtonian physics then realizing I should just dress like a tomboy instead of boymoding is the more refined Einstenian physics

The funniest reaction was a guy getting 68 and immediately saying “DANG IT! I could have gotten 67…”

At the pizza place I work at during school, they changed it for some reason so that we have to manually input the customer’s order number now

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

Not only do I often give the tickets faces like :+) or ^_^ but if we’re slow I stagger “67” into the cycle of numbers and they usually laugh, and if they react in a big way, I say “well it’s gotta happen to someone…”

Also since a lot of us were raised as men we may often have masculine interests and aspects to our overall personality, so it can be an effective way to express your gender identity in a specific niche of womanhood. Examples from Pintrest:

HOW TO DRESS LIKE A TOMBOY:

•wear your bra under a wifebeater (default= white but you can do anything)
•or do theoretically any layered fit
•wear any button up shirt over this
•ideally flannels or stripy shirts (male or female ones depending on your vibe but ideally female)

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

Pros: Tomboys are already associated with masculinity so if you have masculine features it provides better plausible deniability than being a “man in a dress” to cis people. Kinda low voice? Kinda masculine face? “Oh I’m a tomboy I understand the confusion” (works within reason)

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

Dressing like a tomboy is my style. I feel like I’ve split the atom coming up with my current setup (I stole it from a cute tomboy in my oceanography class) ( I hope she talks to me)

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

@rhovanielle I guess I’m one of the lucky trans tomboys

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

Trans Women are sent from God

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

@rhovanielle Hm explain

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

Furthermore and lastly, the transphobic negation of this question is ironically almost gnostic. Your basic instincts are evil and worldly, even though the same basic instinct of gender identity isn’t considered evil and worldly for cis people.

[Caterina 🌹💛 @Tomboym0der]

why would God be against someone’s purest state integration especially if it is not for anything selfish or evil, but for their own mental health, or even better, for the building up of His Kingdom? /5
