The Many Flavors Of Transgender Pride<\/b><\/p>\n

This is a shot, day after getting this new tattoo i photographed DSLR in black and white and shared here in a front view of my neck to show all 3 large, bold, dark black ink tattoos you can likely see from outer space.<\/p>\n

This is placed right above the USA tattoo on my neck as a sign to all i am Transgender, I’m proud of it and i’m also proud to be a Transgender American despite not always being treated fairly here in many ways yet.<\/p>\n

I confuse many. A lot of people think of us as all ‘trying to pass’ and become another binary gender. While that’s true, the funny part is transgender history on a whole worldwide predates this notion by literally thousands of years.<\/p>\n

I instead subscribe to our history, our acceptance in culture, religion and society historically as a means of understanding my place in the grand scheme of things.<\/p>\n

It’s also an important part of my spirituality and in all honesty the last thing i want in the world is to ‘pass’, it sort of goes against what i actually am.<\/p>\n

For some of us, being ‘passable’ as another binary gender is literally everything. Many aspire to pass and be seen as a ‘Woman’ in every sense, until it’s convenient to say you’re trans<\/a> again and support the community.<\/p>\n

This isn’t intentionally malicious, it’s related to gender dysphoria largely as i see it. Some need to pass in order to be whole and live<\/a> life as they are happy and i 100% support that.<\/p>\n

I don’t want to be seen as a ‘Woman’ and it’s very clear now with this tattoo and obviously on hormones having breasts now along with how i dress that i’m trans<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I hope in the future more people like me are able to live<\/a> quality lives aside from the trans<\/a> movement leaving us behind most days, making us out to be less than because we’re not obsessed with looks and are complete people with lives aside from image.<\/p>\n

So many trans<\/a> people live<\/a> in absolute fear of being ‘outed’, ‘not passing’ and of someone using the ‘wrong pronoun’.<\/p>\n

I personally can’t imagine living my life like that, it looks and sounds awful.<\/p>\n

I’ll take being me any day over the rest of it and i’m quite fine not fitting in yet. I’ll let everyone have their arguments with the cisgender world, making enemies and pissing people off….<\/p>\n

And spend my time being a chill artist focusing on life, being proud and most of all… Being me regardless of whatever anyone thinks of it.<\/p>\n

BIG THANKS AGAIN to Mr. Rob Biren @ Seattle Tattoo Emporium<\/a> for this yesterday. <\/p>\n

I’m stoked beyond belief \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
