I finally got around to seeing “I Saw The TV Glow”, and it definitely lived up to the hype.

gender cw : dysphoria, discussion of essentialism
spoiler
I don’t have a gender , I used to identify as transmasc but don’t relate to masculinity so I think agender is right. Don’t like being perceived as or being a woman but wouldn’t like being a man either. I hate the ‘born this way’ narrative, we shouldn’t have to justify why we’re trans. I feel a lot of research about gender being “hardwired” just reinforces bio essentialism under the name of ‘acceptance’ , it’s always agab language and treating sex as an absolute truth. i didn’t fully realize everything until recently , like I said earlier trans people don’t need justification for why they exist.

Yeah, anytime people bring up the “actually, trans brainwaves are more in line with their preferred gender than their assigned one 🤓”
I’m like… Stfu? Who fucking cares what my brainwaves look like? That data cannot be used for good.

I’ve been training my brainwaves so that, if they ever get scanned, this is what shows up.
