Not the same anon but honestly feminists have the right to focus their movement on the rights of female people, it’s literally in the name. Trans activism is for trans people. A liberation movement needs to stay focused, or nothing will be accomplished.
That’s true. However, while the trans activism is made for all different genders within the community, these radfems are excluding a group of women simply because there was a glitch in nature for them.
I really don’t think including trans women is going to derail our purpose as feminists or anything of the sort. In fact, we seem to be doing quite fine with our fellow cis and trans women. A lot of our struggles as vagina-havers are different depending on our race, which country we are in, whether we’re disabled or not, and whether we even identify as women.
Wouldn’t it be absolutely beautiful to be one united front instead of pitting ourselves against other groups of women just because they’re different?
Have a new blog dedicated to my own mythical creatures that I have invented for the sake of enriching the worldbuilding in my HP rewrite. Please show some love 💕
Verosui.
[ veros: “genuine” (Greek); sui: “self” (Latin). ]
OFFICIAL NAME. Verosui
ALSO KNOWN AS. The Holy Messenger OR The Amender
SIZE. 14.5 in
DIET. They eat berries, but they also enjoy eating arthropods and small invertebrates such as spiders, scorpions, centipedes and such.
ABOUT THEM. There used to be an ancient ceremony where whenever someone announced that they were born in the wrong body, they would contact the Goddess via a song so that She would send her beloved pet, the Verosui, to right her wrong. The Amender would arrive a week after the song, to perform its magic. During this week, the village or family would gather around in prayer so that the Amender will show its holy compassion as a sign of compassion towards the sufferer.
Once the Amender arrives, they shall see if a person’s true self would be what they claim. If they deem it necessary, they shall begin the performance of sex reassignment, which really involves powerful magic being used while they fly in circles around their target. It is said that the experience is a mixture of thrilling and painful, so it would really depend on who the person is.
Unfortunately, this ceremony was banned in 1903 by the Minister of Magic at the time — K. Rowl. Ever since then, the wixes were forced to forget about this ceremony since they would be persecuted if they attempted to relieve a sufferer’s pain. Sufferers were soon scorned and mocked if they came out.
Harry Potter Rewrite: Help!
I’ve been outlining more or less what I want the final result for my Harry Potter rewrite to look like but I’m stuck on two outcomes of Hari’s childhood:
NOTE: I have a headcanon in which the Potters are Indian, so James names his son Hari. I think I mentioned this before, if I didn’t, feel free to ask about it.
Petunia’s marriage starts falling apart when Lily dies.
Vernon didn’t let her go to her sister’s funeral because he was sure that the place would be crawling with “freaks”. Even if Petunia begged, he would still prevent her from going.
Vernon made nasty comments about Lily and James’ death, saying that they’re two less freaks to worry about.
Eventually Petunia leaves her husband and moves back in with her parents (who are alive in this version).
Petunia decides to go to college, a decision supported by her parents since they promised to help her financially and with the boys.
She studies to become an English teacher.
She loves her job. Also, she might fall in love with the History teacher.
She remarries, and it’s a man who treats her right and is good with the boys.
Both boys are treated equally while with her.
Dudley and Hari get along well. Although whenever Dudley returns from his weekends at his father’s, they fight a lot.
Hari grows up knowing he’s a wizard and knowing (more or less, because Petunia didn’t have all the details) what had happened to his parents.
Many more…
Remus, along with several other people who believed Sirius was innocent, start protesting and putting pressure on the Ministry so that they can give Sirius a proper trial.
Sirius is renamed innocent.
Dumbledore still refuses to hand Hari over to them, even though they were the rightful guardians of the child.
The last straw is when Dumbledore casually corrects them and says that Hari’s name has been changed to Harry.
They whitewashed his name. They were livid.
Remus and Sirius, along with some handpicked friends to help them, manage to kidnap Hari.
They take him to Wales, further away from Remus’ former home. They cast an insane amount of spells to hide themselves from Dumbledore. They were untraceable.
Other than the protections needed, they lived a muggle life.
They have other children (the names I’m still working out), there’s five kids in total.
Two of those children are werewolves, attacked at a young age by another wolf pack that’s not Fenrir Greyback. They—Remus, especially—wanted to bring them comfort when he found out about them.
Hari lives in a loud, chaotic household in the middle of nowhere.
Lyall Lupin eventually moves in with them because Remus worried for his father—the man was old and alone.
And many more…
NOTE: The outcome of the votings will determine the overall plot of Hari’s era. Choose wisely, what do you want to see?

Have you ever considered just writing your own stuff rather than plagiarizing someone else's
I do write my own stuff, I just write fanfic on my spare time (which is a lot, these days). Also, as much as I hate it, credit for the HP series is still going to be given to her so I don’t get sued :)
sometimes I try to have nuance and consume media critically like “oh even though I personally don’t like snape because he was a cruel and abusive man that doesn’t mean he’s a bad character because he did ultimately give his life for the cause 😊” or “yes I think dumbledore was a manipulative puppet master who treated people as pawns but he did have good intent and I think he truly loved harry” but then I randomly remember some of the fucked up shit they did and the rage comes back in full force
like snape picking ruthlessly on poor orphaned harry who literally was traumatized his whole life and bullying neville and exposing remus as a werewolf and telling voldemort the prophecy and being willing to let james and harry die just to save lily for his twisted obsession. or dumbledore raising harry to be slaughtered and testing him at every opportunity but telling him nothing and leaving the fate of the world in his young hands. or you know abandoning an innocent sirius to rot in prison without a trial even when he pulled strings for snape, or manipulating persecuted and marginalized people like hagrid and remus to worship the ground he walked on so he could use their loyalty when the time came
White allies and white leftists and liberals need to read this.
In regards to posts about racism or intersectionality with race involved you MUST listen. Not respond. LISTEN
What I have seen so many white “allies” do is add onto posts (my own included) to put their own thoughts and opinions. In some cases take the words of the original poster and try to “translate” what is being said to other white people.
You are ACTIVELY taking away the voices of poc and speaking over them when you do this. When you tack on your own personal anecdotes or try to to give a definition of what a person or color is saying you are in the simplest of ways insulting their intelligence
It's the Gujarati Anon here!
First off, those are some pretty great headcanons. Just one thing, if you headcanon Euphemia as Gujarati as well you may want to reconsider her lastname being Gill. Since Gill is generally a last name from Punjab with Sikh origins. I love the Jigishu part by the way! But I don't think it's something someone would actually name their kid but more of a affectionate nickname if their name was something like Jignesh.
Thank you! I apologize for mixing up the surnames, I’ll be changing it to something that fits where she’s from. Any suggestions?
Also, thanks for the Jigishu part. I’ll change James’ name now.
I appreciate the help! May I ask what you, as a Gujarati, like to see in James and his family?
