i don’t particularly identify neither with the male/female binary, nor with the cis/trans binary. But I believe that political identities don’t need to be the same as our particular identities.
Goodwill and godspeed to all you splendid motherfuckers who transed your genders or will have transed your genders or might possibly will have had transed your genders
On this auspicious day each year we pool all of our old gender for redistribution so each gets the correct amount of gender according to their needs
A prosperous year and a glorious gender revolution to you, comrades

Note: This is not a new fic, but a story I revised for the Trans Day of Visibility (sorry I’m a bit late, editing takes forever) but I wanted to post some trans4trans content to celebrate

It’s that time of year again! That awesome day where trans people share their selfies and stories. It’s one of the two largest trans advocacy days, the other being Trans Day of Remembrance (20th November). That day is dedicated to mourning and solemnity, while this day is a day to celebrate being alive! Like last year, I’m not sure of the absolute official hashtag, so I’m guessing there’ll be a variety in use, such as: #tdov #transdayofvisibility #trans day of visibility #trans visibility #trans pride
This day has been recognised since 2009 and is increasing in popularity and support each year, but there’s still a long way to go in spreading the word. Visibility is something that the trans community often has to struggle for, so this is our time to step out of the shadows, take pride in who we are, and show the world that we exist and we’re here to stay.
If you are trans
This is your day. No matter your gender - whether you’re male, female, or any nonbinary gender - anyone who isn’t cis (ie. whose gender is different from the gender they were assigned at birth) can participate. This is a great opportunity to get involved in the community and be visible. If you’re comfortable, post a selfie. Share your story. This is your time to be proud of who you are! It can get hard and lonely sometimes, but there’s a whole community here who have your back.
If you are not trans
Please also get involved - don’t leave this day just up to us. Today is a day for you to support and listen to the trans community. Show us some love by reblogging some selfies and reading some stories, whether you browse through the tags listed above or stick to your mutuals. Now is a perfect opportunity to learn about our wonderful community and to look at some beautiful people. It’s a win-win, really.
Above all, I hope everyone has a fantastic TDoV! Have fun and keep it positive.
Believe it or not, there are a bevy of trans writers creating tons of online content these days. We often hear about major works like memoirs and full-length books, but behind-the-scenes there are trans writers publishing articles, essays and blogs to keep the trans narrative as authentic as possible. It’s not easy in-between imminent deadlines, keeping tabs on current events and often being the only trans person to represent the community in a given newsroom or segment of the blogosphere. Here are 12 amazing trans writers who are recrafting the narrative that you should check out immediately!
Posting will start today and go on for the next few weeks. We’ll be posting two or three works a day, according to schedule.
We’re looking at all sorts of pairings & triads, as well as gen fic, podfic, and art, from G to E rating! It’s going to be a fun and diverse fest, with works for all tastes.
