Marianne Oakes has shared an amazing collection of transgender love stories over at GenderGP.
Here are a few of them.

The myth that trans people struggle to find love is damaging to our future generations, if trans youth or worse still, their parents believe this, then the impact can be loss of hope. My experience is pretty much like all the lovely comments here, let’s stop the myth, xx
More here!
This is my reminder to make a photoshoot of this kind. God, I need my tripod. 🙏🙏

Textures of the sleepy forest, cold air, wind running through the naked branches, czech nature, cold spring days, easter holidays, dirty shoes, taking pictures, feeling the creative rush, tones of brown, red noses and calmness.

I’m just going to say it: to my fellow white people, READ AFRICAN-AMERICAN LITERATURE. James Baldwin! Toni Morrison! Ralph Ellison! There are many, many authors out there, so expand your horizons! Read The Autobiography of Malcolm X. Read The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. If you’re into art, discover African American artists! Henry Ossawa Tanner! Mickalene Thomas! LaToya Ruby Frazier! I truly encourage all of you to be open to new perspectives! Not just that, but educate yourselves. Be an ally to the black community! Listen to what these people have to say!
Honestly, me everyday.
Ravenclaw: I need a break.
Gryffindor: From what?
Ravenclaw: *vaguely gestures*
Gryffindor: Same.
Let’s not forget to acknowledge Alexandre Dumas this Black History Month
The writer of two of the most well known stories worldwide, The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo was a black man.
That’s excellence.
Physically I'm in my student's apartment, mentally I'm here.
girls don’t want boys, girls want to live in Dakota Johnson’s house.
Not to be controversial or anything, but if you identify yourself with dark academia but you don’t uses the lessons of past, in novels and general history, to reflect and better the present, the only academic you are is of ignorance.
The point of studying text and art and history is not to just appreciate it but to understand, analysis and apply it, as a means to shape a better present and future.
For example if you love blood brother but only analysis it in the context of class relations of the time it was wrote, and not also as a way to show how little we have changed dispute as a culture knowing that our system was wrong, you are not a academic. You are a fan.
There is nothing wrong with that but despite what Wilde says art has use beyond enjoyment, beyond the singular, it reflects the history of a society and it’s emotions. It reflects how we got here and reminds us that as we changed once we can change again, through action.
So if in this lockdown you have turned away from social media in favour of books and art, the next time you read othello or to kill a mockingbird remember that is not a past we have moved on from. George flyod lived and breathed as we did. But now he is dead, and there is something you can do to prevent that same fate of innocent black people.
Stand up, step up and fight together ✊🏾
Honestly, it was worse than Game of Thrones. It really was. I can't believe this ending isn't just a some kind of a collective bad fever dream.
Let's check the prognostic made by the writers on the spn finale:
Like if you're part of the 30% that liked it
Reblog if you're part of the 70% that didn't like it
I'm curious to see the results.
