Rules

1.) No bigotry of any kind, and don't be a jerk either

Bigotry includes but is not limited to: ableism, casteism, homophobia, lookism, queerphobia, racism, sexism, transphobia, and xenophobia. Bigotry towards non-binary people is transphobia. Truscum rhetoric is also bigotry. You getting punished for your hateful opinion, however, is not bigotry.

2.) No Spam

This includes both advertising and breaking your or my Lemmy instance's rules, such as vote manipulation or brigading.

3.) Posts must have something to do with being trans, or about trans experiences

Try to stay away from negative political events too. You can joke about it, but bringing attention to something bad happening in the world might take someone out of their comfort zone— this is an escape from the constant news cycle for some.

4.) No Selfies or Character Creations

Selfies are not memes! This is not a community for selfies. Picrews and other character creations such as Sims and Mii's are considered bandwagoning, and perhaps can be a part of a different community.

5.) SFW-only

This is an all ages community, so we prefer it if you take the NSFW stuff to one of the more adult oriented communities. Note: nudity is not allowed, we want everybody to be comfortable here.

6.) Submissions must be a meme or they will be removed
7.) Swearing is fine, but slurs are not

We want everybody to feel safe and comfortable here, so even if you want to reclaim a pejorative word that applies to you— we ask that you don't, as this is a light-hearted community and others stumbling across your post might feel unsafe.

8.) Embedded submissions should only link to trusted image sharing sites, no IP grabbers or link shorteners
9.) Use but don't misuse the report button

If something breaks these rules, or this Lemmy instance's rules, please report it.

10.) Please do not link to any terf, racist, or any other hate communities or forums

Bigots like those do not deserve any attention. Any post or comment linking to a hate community or forum will be removed

11.) Don't be a jerk nor a troll

Be nice, and don't create social chaos. That's it. Pretty simple, huh?

Some notes:

1.) We highly encourage you to use alt text in your posts, so everybody can enjoy this community
2.) It would be really nice if you flaired your posts accordingly in the title

For example, a meme about the non-binary experience could have a title like this: "[NB] Story of my life!" This will make searching for content much easier.

3.) Don't break the law

This includes the country you live in as well as the country your instance is hosted in

Sibling forums:

!egg_irl

Trans memes specifically about being closeted, unaware or in denial

!196

Ordinary memes, but the community is very trans-accepting— and it only has one rule: when you encounter the page you must post a meme from your camera roll

But she is wearing female attire and some makeup. Not sure when the guy in front has to do with anything.

Fun fact. Most people never know a person is trans.

Its a manufactured problem.

Gravity falls is such a great show

"We insist by law that she use the Ladies' Room."

As a cis woman who's straight but not narrow I'd feel totally safe with him in there and realize it wasn't by choice. But I'm pretty sure the MAGA women aren't going to be too happy.

And of course it provides the perfect cover for straight men to sneak in, which was probably part of the plan.

Meanwhile the transwomen are in danger of assault if they use the Men's Room as legally mandated.

And of course we're all female now...

Thanks a lot, Queen Donald.

The endgame for transgender people is to be damned coming and going. They'll be targeted for harassment in either restroom by reactionaries who want to inflict pain on them.

The only response has to be community defense. If you see a trans-person in a restroom being harassed, stand up for them. If you see a MAGA person agitating against a trans-person, shame them and shut them up. Stand up for your comrades anywhere and everywhere.

I'm a ciswoman, but I feel like if I reached that point I'd offer to wrestle my Dad to prove my dominance.

"This is deadname, my daughter."

"Forgive him. He only says that because he's too chicken to fight me."

Actually, I've been working out. If I get strong enough, I'll do this to all my trans brothers' dad's for them.

I came back to say that since I made that post, I've been mentally designing my wrestling costume ever since.
