I will readily admit that I'm becoming a #DrBronners superfan, especially when I read their blog posts, including this powerful one on the recent #TransDayOfVisibility that provides an excellent list of organizations that they are supporting financially this year that advocate for true trans inclusion and acceptance.

Dr. Bronner's Highlights Inspiring Trans OrganizationsDr. Bronner's

Kopfschmerzbedingt bestand mein Trans day of visibility gestern nur daraus, dass ich bei der Lohnarbeit einen trans Pride Pin an der Mütze hatte und einen Pulli mit einem Aufdruck einer Blume und der Aufschrift "Be brave, be kind, be true, be you", alles in den Farben der trans Flagge. Übersetzt heißt der Aufdruck "Sei mutig, sei nett, sei echt, sei du"
Mir ist es wichtig, im Alltag als transfeminine Person sichtbar zu sein. Grade bei der Lohnarbeit bin ich viel im ländlichen Raum in Sachsen und Thüringen unterwegs. Hier bin ich für viele meiner Kund*innen wahrscheinlich die einzige trans Person, mit der sie zu tun haben. Und wenn sie durch mich merken, dass wir auch einfach nur Menschen sind, die ihr Leben leben wollen, und nicht so, wie wir in Comedy Serien und Filmen dargestellt werden, hilft das vielleicht, Transfeindlichkeit in der Gesellschaft abzubauen. Meiner Erfahrung nach kommt Transfeindlichkeit oft auch einfach durch Unwissenheit, schädliche Darstellung in den Medien und dadurch, dass es einfach das Unbekannte ist, womit eins im Alltag nichts zu tun hat.
Ich bin sichtbar und nehme auch alle Risiken und Gefahren bewusst in Kauf, damit es die nachfolgenden Generationen ein bisschen leichter haben :neocat_flag_trans:

Because contrary to many of his peers Eguchi's girls were pretty but not designed for the male gaze. This wasn't accidental because he wasn't drawing the object of his desires but rather what he would have wanted to be. In his own words:

> The ideal girl for me is the one I would have wanted to become if I was born a girl, it is not the girl I would dream to date, it is really the frustration of not being born as a girl which fuels my drawings.

#TransDayOfVisibility

Given today is #TransDayOfVisibility here's an interesting tidbit: among the flood of AI generated slop that's been thrown around you'll find plenty of AI-generated fake '80s japanese synthpop music usually presented with images of pretty girls as the cover image. The style used for the girls in those videos is very often a shameful ripoff of Hisashi Eguchi's. A mangaka known for his beautiful and fashionable drawings. Why is that relevant today?

While #TransDayOfVisibility is already over for most people, I want to use part of the last hour of it in my time zone to share that I am transgender. I never used to tell people about this, as keeping it to myself brought me a lot of safety and comfort, but I believe that by sharing my experience with people I can help to bring attention to the dire situation transgender people are in right now in the United States.

I transitioned from male to female as a teenager during the 2000s. That was over half a lifetime ago now, and while I have had my share of troubles like anyone, I am very happy with my life overall. I am alarmed that young people today will not have the same chance to be themselves that I did, and that this will cause a great deal of pointless suffering.

A closing thought for #TDoV / #TransDayOfVisibility, on the less joyful side

Even among the people who love us, sometimes it feels like we can only exist in one of two states:

highly fetishized dehumanized sexual objects
sexless, sexuality-less, romanceless entities from beyond

and that sucks

Some other trans reminders:

It's alright to decide not to change your pronouns, or to change it anytime.

It's alright to try names/pronouns to see which ones fit for you. I totally encourage this.

It's alright no matter when you discovered you were trans. As a child, in your 60s...

It's alright to be unsure, and if you need time.

You're trans enough. Nobody can take your identity away from you or know better than you do. :heart_trans:
