Animestraddle 12 years, 3 months ago1. I’ve recently started watching Elfen Lied and love it. I’m half way through any other fans?
2. Moving overseas cannot continue to get it from the video store… ideas? solutions?

Genderstraddlers 12 years, 3 months agoJust came across a post at bird of paradox (http://www.birdofparadox.net/blog/?p=10046) detailing some interesting potential developments in the legal and social treatment of intersex people in Germany. Basically members of the German Bundestag and the Alliance 90/The Greens parliamentary group have tabled a motion aiming to expand and defend the…[Read more]

Genderstraddlers 12 years, 3 months agoI feel like lots of girls who aren’t pulling off the more traditional feminine styles that society has assigned them might be happier dressing/presenting themselves more masculinely? I know this was the case for me. I was taught to have long hair and wear skirts and I absolutely despised it, so I was subsequently pretty awkward looking as an…[Read more]

Heh I can totally second you on the whole being an awkward looking adolescent thing. If I never see another photograph of myself as an early teen it’ll be too soon xD Not that I’m always sure that I’m pulling off my newer ‘look’ any better but at least I don’t always -feel- as awkward and that helps. I think that if you feel more comfortable with…[Read more]

Animestraddle 12 years, 3 months agoOk so in Japan they have those dansou cafes where women dress up in men’s clothing. They’re aimed at yaoi fans but as a yuri fan I feel like I would be into them too. How do you guys feel?

Genderstraddlers 12 years, 3 months agosomeone left this comment on my YouTube page: “I’ll bet you are a big hulking bull dagger diesel dyke. a real monster! [classist rape joke redacted]!!!!!!!!”
I’m not entirely sure why. I mean, occasionally I get wasted and troll homophobes, which gets me trolled right back, but I am almost positive that I did nothing (other than exist) to…[Read more]

Ugh I am so sorry that happened to you! What an absolutely vile comment. Of course no amount of trolling homophobes would have justified that reaction even if you had done it but unfortunately I think a lot of the time our mere existence really is enough to set these kind of people off. The point you raise about the treatment of different kinds of…[Read more]

i agree with this. i generally try to take xyz-phobic comments, be it based on race/culture/class/gender/sexuality/etc., as an indicator of what they perceive as threatening (because otherwise life would just be a bowl of slightly moldy cherries rather than just cherries. mm, cherries). and well it is irritating in a way that there is this…[Read more]

I feel like I’m not going to appear nearly as eloquent or wordy as Lucy, but anyway:
Basically every day some asshat at my school yells at me, “You look like Justin Bieber!” Of course, I respond positively. I’ve had my pictures submitted to that tumblr. I just hate that they say this in a derogative manner.

It’s virtually never a good idea to compare whether one form of oppression is worse than another, especially because–newsalert–they’re often related. The same cultural mores and stereotypes underlie homophobia, transphobia, sexism, etc., and they can all lead to hatred.
One observation I’ve made is that gender policing in Western culture does…[Read more]

1.) I’ve only seen a little of Elfen Lied and I really liked it, even though it go sort of emotionally crushing at the end.
2.) Look into any sort of online or mail movie-delivery service options. Netflix has a decent amount of anime on their instant thing and for the mail.(although the instant stuff is all dubbed) and they’re talking about…[Read more]
