Thinking about my transition, I would never call myself someone who "always knew". The recent discourse around "male socialization" or being "socialized male" has made me remember a few things.Yes, I was coercively socialized male but not maliciously. The people who raised me did so with love and kindness toward me (until the divorce and my abusive stepdad came in, but this was before that).They didn't know better and I believed them when they told me that I needed to do things this way and not that way which was how girls did it. That was fine. I believed them when they assumed I was a boy and I did as I was asked.But.As I was raised up as a boy, I always, always, always studied the girls from a distance. I wanted to learn the same things they did. I wanted to know how they were taught to be themselves.I told myself I was just someone who wanted to know both sides so I could better understand the thing that I definitely was not.I was socialized twice. Once, directly and on purpose and a second time from across the room with sideways glances and perked ears.I wanted to know. I needed to know. I didn't figure out why until I was in my mid-30s.So, yes. I was socialized male by people who were not angry or demanding, by people who loved me. But I socialized myself female whenever I could.#LGBT #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA #LGBTQIA2S #Transgender #Trans #MaleSocializations #SocializedMale

In regards to Xena making a statement against the stigma surrounding HIV: in the episode 'Here She Comes... Miss Amphipolis', Xena enters a beauty pageant undercover. There, she encounters Miss Artiphys, a character played by the late Karen Dior, an HIV-positive actor, singer, former adult performer, and drag queen (reports on Dior’s gender identity are contradictory, and probably also affected by '90s culture).When Xena discovers that Miss Artiphys was an AMAB character who entered the competition presenting as a woman, the latter explains her actions with the line: "You really don’t get it, do you? I guess being born a woman you wouldn’t. This is a chance to use a part of me most people usually laugh at, or worse. A part I usually have to hide. Only here that part works for me, you see?" expecting Xena to force her to drop.Instead, Xena encourages her to stay in the competition, never reveals her secret, never disrespects her, and in the end, she ends up being crowned winner. After her victory, Xena and Artiphys share a kiss. That was an intentional statement against the widespread misinformation surrounding AIDS and the transmission of HIV that reportedly Lucy Lawless insisted on being included.It is near impossible to fully explain how *ridiculously* groundbreaking it was that this entire plot happened in the mid '90s.#Xena #XenaWarriorPrincess #LGBTQIA #LGBTQ #TransRights #HIV #trans #Gender #TV

Hallo ihr Lieben,in dieser Folge von InSpektren unterhalten sich Finn, Noir und Delfin über Toxische Weiblichkeit. Sie schauen, was mit dem Begriff eigentlich gemeint ist und wie er sich von der bekannteren Toxischen Männlichkeit unterscheidet. Sie fragen sich, wer jetzt eigentlich toxisch weiblich sein kann und beschäftigen sich anhand des Buchs Toxische Weiblichkeit von Sophia Fritz mit verschiedenen Aspekten toxisch weiblichen Verhaltens.#Podcast #LGBTQIA #ToxischeWeiblichkeit

#PennedPossibilities 778 — Does your antagonist enjoy reading? Tell us about the material they would choose to read. Dr. Death isn't exactly the sort of man to choose romance novels, that's for sure. Medical textbooks and study (more like experiment) research is more his style. Just anything and everything of medical use that can help further him in the field. #LGBT #LGBTQIA #TheCityOfOpulence #DigitalDystopiaSeries #Cyberpunk #SFF #ScienceFiction #Romance #Worldbuilding #AmWriting #WritingCommunity
