So I should reintroduce myself. I’m Penelope, all my work is 3D. I sculp, texture, light and render my pieces. I don’t use AI. I tried it, wasn’t my thing. I’ll work on new pieces soon, but here’s some old pieces.

Trans Youth, Puberty, Suicide Risk, and the Choices Societies Make Across countries and decades of research, one pattern is consistent. Transgender young people experience significantly higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation than their peers. This is not

If you are a gay or lesbian person supporting Sex Matters, you need to be clear about what that support entails. This organisation actively lobbied the Council of Europe to block a ban on conversion practices. That is not an allegation or an interpretation. It is a matter of

@garylfrancione Gary, this framing is the problem. Reducing homosexuality to “same-sex attraction” isn’t neutral clarity. It’s a political move with a long history, and that history is homophobic and now transphobic too. Gay people were never persecuted because of chromosomes. We were

Collective. We’re the LGBT+ community. We’re the trans community. We’ve beaten them before. It’s time we do it again.

We’re stronger than they’re. We’ve not tried to harm anyone. But we have more courage and talent. We can shine a light on them. They have been weakened by following and supporting fascists. They have shown their hand. I think it’s time we showed them what we can do as a …

They wanted everyone to believe we are the threat. Now we become it. Just not in the bs ways they said they we were. The bigger they are the harder they will fall.

I’m done playing on the back foot. Now we form lobbying groups, recruit lawyers from our community, create our own media. Now we take back our dignity, no ifs ands or buts. Now we make politics.

I’m more than my doubts and others fears. We all are. Hold onto that. I try too.

Lots of typos, but hopefully the point is still valid.

So people can hate all they want. It comes from their own deficiencies and fears. But as is said in Trainspotting I choose life and acceptance. Those to small to see that have their own issues to deal with.

I knew then I wasn’t alone. So till the day I die, I’ll support those who are rejected and need to feel family. I’ve lived all over the world. I’ve met people from so many cultures. What I see is we all want the same things, acceptance and love. We want respect and dignity.

It’s never easy. But seeing the joy others feel when they find themselves is intoxicating and worth it. It keeps me going. It gives me a platform to exist from. I never even met another trans person until I was a few days short of turning 18. It was in a surgeons office.

Normal and my own sense of normality. So I can either accept hate from others who have zero perspective about people like me or i can standup for myself and others who experience life through the same prism as I do. I oscillate between the two.

Hardwired in me. It always has been. I could quote all the latest research as to why, but it doesn’t change my day to day reality. Depending on your perspective something went very right or wrong with me from birth or maybe before. I was always caught between what’s considered

Know exactly what I mean. I can only feel comfortable being myself and yet society insists I should not. It’s hard. Haters try to pin it on sexuality, but for me that is irrelevant. I could go the rest of my life without sex and it would change nothing. This existence is..

I’m trans. It’s nothing I asked for. It’s nothing I wanted. But it is my reality. So my choices are always deal with it and push forward or let it control everything I am and can be. I was never like most people. I had a conflict I could never resolve. I know other trans people..

Sometimes fear. No idiot on Twitter can impact that. This doubt comes from within. It comes from a childhood of rejection. It comes from my own sense of finiteness. It comes from realizing how much I do not know. It comes from perspective. I’m a thinker, often to my own detriment

Imagine asking actual Native Americans for their papers. You know, the original Americans. What fresh dystopian hell is this?

J.K. Rowling and anti trans campaigners repeatedly claim that trans women are a danger to women. Two women have been charged in North Carolina after police say they kidnapped and sexually assaulted a transgender woman in a public bathroom at a bar in Raleigh. According to court
