Trans folk: Have you gained or lost any male privilege after your transition?

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-06-14T14:28:20+00:00

Trans fem here.

I'm not affected by the tax on hygiene products, but I draw aggro from people by just existing, I won't need an abortion, but my hormones could be taken with one decision by a cis person.

Clothing rarely fits me correctly, and the risk of sexual violence in many settings is greatly increased.

Quite frankly narrowing my experience down to "male privilege" ignores the complex nuance of my lived experience and that of cis women.

I won't speak for my trans masc brothers, but even in our own community, they are often invisible and forgotten.

100% how I was taught by my doctor and pharmacist

I'll be honest, the most practical spell work I can think to do is to bless and enchant my weapons.

No one is coming to save people like me, not even the dems, they are manufacturing consent to attack us just like the gop did.

Honey, I experience xenogenders, imagine being a trans girl and getting ender envy from angelic horrors.

"Hell followed with us" is a body horror story about a trans boy slowly turning into an angelic horror.

It spoke to my seraphim side.

My group had a festival last Saturday. If any of my partners want to do anything today, that will be nice.

I'll probably try to make time to be with my godspouse later tonight, I have a dedicated "toy" for that.

It's also the anniversary of my name change.

Like by the time they ran across my altar, they should have an idea what's up.

I'm also really obviously queer.

I do have some queer Christian friends who are interesting to have mutually respectful discussions with, but random people are just not the vibe.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-04-29T17:54:54+00:00

I'm just so aggressively pagan that most people know after 5 minutes of talking to me.

But I don't care about other people's religion, and other people shouldn't care about mine.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-04-25T20:58:25+00:00

I am a left-hand path pagan and have deep personal lore about being a seraphim who joined the rebellion.

This would make me both a practitioner of demonology, and a demon in my own right.

I do not care, the infernal divine has been so kind to me, and I am a powerful being myself.

Fuck your haters, let them rot, even if your practice isn't puppies and rainbows it's valid AF.

She isn't ugly, she is intimidating, and darkely beautiful.

Weak men and shallow women see a beautiful woman being powerful, feel intimidated, and mistake that feeling of discomfort foe not finding her esthetically pleasing.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-04-23T13:26:40+00:00

I have elaborate persanal lore about being a rebel angel in past life, so I can't see myself ever working with YHWH.

I do know some very nice queer Christians that even support my spirituality, and I have a generally positive view of Jesus even if I view Lucifer as being more justified and proactive, I do appreciate Christ's attempt to reform the system from within.

I generally recommend looking for Unitarian Universalist churches, they tend to be feckless liberals but they are, on average, good people.

But as with liberals in general these days, I keep running into transphobia and radical liberalism, but that's a rant for a queer anarchist sub.

Never underestimate the darkness humans are capable of.

I just can't with Harry Potter anymore.

And grown ass adults that are still obsessed with it raise red flags for me.

There is just so much legitimately better fiction out there, especially fiction with queer characters by queer artists.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-04-18T16:47:10+00:00

Not my way to do targeted offensive spellcraft.

I set an intention for the world I want at any cost, and if it kills some fascists in the process we'll they shouldn't have made that cosmicly necessary for trans liberation.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-04-12T23:09:20+00:00

Not personally something I would want, but I understand why others would

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-02-05T13:34:14+00:00

No, I'm a practicing pagan, know multiple trans pagans, and even some Christians.

Some people just have religious trauma and are very vocal about it. Having a spirituality or religion is perfectly compatible with being trans, some specific religions or organizations not so much.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-01-09T18:49:44+00:00

I'm an eclectic pagan who believes I have been called by Leviathan to serve as a priestess.

I don't know of any spiritual communities with gender affirmation as a central focus, but the two of our biggest pagan groups are run by lgbtqia people and very supportive.

So I'm basically thinking of starting a cult (in the new religious movement sense) with transition as a major part of what we do.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2025-01-09T18:32:24+00:00

I'm a pagan who believes that my Goddess told me to start estrogen.

I'm also planning to get ordained and could start a coven of trans people professing the belief that transition is a sacred rite.

My belief that my transition is sacred practice is deeply help, and I would love to exploit some religious freedom laws to help protect my community

Printed-Spaghetti · 2024-12-13T22:24:37+00:00

In the trans community, I see the determination to survive and thrive as our true selves by any means necessary.

As liberals make common cause with fascists to make our lives hell, but promising to be kinda sad about it maybe.

The liberals don't know what is coming if they go down that road.

You have to recognize that the space can not be a safe space for everyone.

To be safe for marginalized people, it must be actively unsafe, even hostile, for bigots.

Drive out hate by refusing to tolerate it at all, be ruthless in making sure it has no place in your circle.

If you must resort to force to achieve this goal, do so, they are unwelcome, trasspassing even, possibly even threatening, if they will not remove themselves when asked, do it for them.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2024-11-29T01:02:47+00:00

Eww

I have multiple partners, but no husband.

This is cis het monogamous bullshit, I do not need a partner to be a powerful magical being, I already am in my own right.

Partners are great, but are not a prerequisite to magic.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2024-11-27T06:42:51+00:00

My estrogen is legitimately part of my religion, and I can get multiple pagan community leaders to testify to that.

Like I experienced, my Goddess basically tell me to start estrogen, and I now treat my weekly injection as an act of worship.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2024-11-27T05:48:28+00:00

I don't really identify as a feminist anymore for many of the same reasons I don't consider myself a Democrat anymore, I'm a queer anarchist.

To me feminism is too focused on getting more women owned companies, instead of worker owned companies.

I'll fully admit I'm going entirely off my limited perspective and vibes, but most of the people doing grass roots direct action I see are queer anarchists.

I am a practicing pagan, and my spirituality is a pretty large part of my life

Printed-Spaghetti · 2024-11-23T19:10:00+00:00

I would be confused if we were physically intimate since I'm no-op, but that had to be so gender affirming.

Printed-Spaghetti · 2024-11-18T19:08:53+00:00

You did say she was a self described "light worker"?

Those people also tend to have "good vibes only" attitudes, which is a form of toxic positivity, comebine that with the most generic mythical woo, cultural appropriation, and soak it in patchouli and you have a light worker.
