i believe an important kind of creative process is "i didn't know that wasn't allowed"

really fond of humans just from an appearance standpoint. the long legs. the manes of hair that can come in practically any colour and texture. those crazy high-contrast eyes with the white scleras and colourful irises. the fingers being so much longer than the toes. there's a lot to love. solid 10/10 animal species

hey there just out of curiosity are you not human, too?

hilariously enough, I am probably the most human out of anyone on this entire site. earlier today I was posting about getting "species euphoria" from doing human activities like ecosystem management. I'm the worlds first therian to have a kintype that aligns with his biological species. shirt that says "I ❤️ being a sapient omnivorous primate & bipedal persistence predator" on the front and booty shorts that say "largest gluteal muscles to body size ratio on the planet"

The 2026 Gender Census is now open!

[ survey.gendercensus.com ]

The 13th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 13th August 2026.

It’s short and easy, for most participants it takes 5 minutes or less.

After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.

If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful!

Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com

The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.

Thank you so much!

if i could give one piece of advice to newly transitioning trans men, it's that it's 100% possible to find a community of people (including women!) who don't treat you as a threat, and the people trying to convince you otherwise are not your friends

#i dont like. hate anyone who says men suck or wants to complain about them as a whole#but i also dont really fuck with it#and i think its really annoying too that now that im transmasc it feels like people will just#assume the reason is that im personally offended but its not even that!#i used to be a girl who hated men and complained about men and found a lot of their actions fucked up#and distrusted strange men inherently and would have panic attacks if any seemed even slightly weird towards me#thinking he was going to hurt me or had evil intentions for me#i read a LOT about violence and assault from men to women and personally experienced misogyny and sexism all the time#and i mean i still do but. im more of a hermit now. when i was out around people daily it was far more prevalent#also being a young girl. like. strange men will be such weird losers to you especially then#anyway. i would do that where id just go on about how awful men are and how they terrified me and id fixate on every moment#that they scared me or were fuckheads to me#but i realized at some point it wasnt really....helping. it just kinda entombed me further in my fear of them#and the good men in my life would have to hear me say this and see how terrified i was#and theyd feel bad for being men. like. theyd lowkey hate their entire gender bc of how much it tormented me to deal with the bad ones#but then theyd be here being a great friend and listener and never belittling my complaints and empathizing as best they can#and theyd be there to help if they were around when some stupid shit happened. they just couldnt always be#and idk i just figured out saying that shit all the time really wasnt. helping#complaining about weird and annoying men with others that have dealt with that shit can be cathartic but#the part where i acted like they were all rotten to the core even if i knew 'not all men' truly were like that was kinda harmful#its just kinda ostracizing? but if you say that people are like oh nooo not the poor mens feelingssss#like they just refuse to care even if its uncomfortable for the nicest of em#one of those things where when i see it happening im not gonna really argue about it bc#theyre just going to see me as annoying whiny man (im not even a man lol)#but whenever someone i follow starts ranting and raving about how all men are like a plague or something im just gonna. leave#its unhealthy for the people saying it too but they dont wanna hear it#ALSO when ur transmasc being treated like the world sees you as a man and congratulates you on it and is never weird about it is wild#like. be so forreal nobody outside queer circles sees me as anything like a man anyway#but also ive been there ive had sexism against me my whole life i havent forgotten what thats like#it. still happens. also.
