PRODUCED BY TRANS ACTIVIST JA MOCK, POSE IS MAKG HISTORY BY HAVG THE MOST TRANS SERI REGULARS ON ANY TV SHOW EVER.IN ONE EPISO, THERE’S A SCENE WHERE BLAN, A TRANS WOMAN OF LOR, STAG A PROTT AT A BAR THAT TERS TO CISGENR GAY WHE MEN AFTER THE BARTENR AND MANAGER REFE TO SERVE HER. HERE, WE SEE A TRANS WOMAN WHO ALREADY FAC DISCRIMATN OM CIS STRAIGHT PEOPLE TRYG TO FD SOLIDARY WH OTHER QUEER PEOPLE AT THE BAR, BUT SHE IS SHUNNED. THE CIS GAY WHE MEN ARE MORE TERTED UPHOLDG THEIR OWN PRIVILEGE THAN BUILDG MUNY WH TRANS WOMEN OF LOR. THIS SELF IS A STRONG MSAGE, BUT THE SHOW’S CREATORS TOOK ONE STEP FURTHER.WHILE AT THE BAR, BLAN NOTIC THAT SHE’S NOT THE ONLY PERSON OF LOR THE ROOM; THERE’S ALSO A BLACK CIS GAY MAN THERE. HOPG TO FD AN ALLY THE ROOM, BLAN POTS OUT THAT THEY’RE THE ONLY TWO PEOPLE OF LOR THE ROOM AND TELLS HIM, “THEY DON’T WANT HERE.” HIS RPONSE? “NO, THEY DON’T WANT YOU HERE.” UPON HEARG THIS, THE MANAGER GIV HIM A EE DRK, “PLIMENTS OF THE HOE.”THIS CIS GAY BLACK MAN IS BOTH QUEER AND A RACIAL MORY, LIKE BLAN. HE DON’T HAVE TO IMAGE OPPRSN; HE’S EXPERIENCED MANY TIM OVER. EVEN SO, HE IS TOO VTED UPHOLDG HIS CIS PRIVILEGE TO SI WH BLAN AS SHE FAC BLATANT DISCRIMATN. AND HE’S REWARD FOR THIS WH THE APPROVAL OF A WHE PERSON.I’LL BE HONT: I WAS SURPRISED WH THIS SCENE. I THOUGHT THE SHOW WAS GOG TO LL OUT CIS STRAIGHT WHE MEN (THE UAL SPECT FOR PRIVILEGED PEOPLE BEG PROBLEMATIC) AND CIS GAY WHE MEN (ONE OF THE UAL SPECTS FOR MARGALIZED PEOPLE BEG PROBLEMATIC) AND MOVE ON. AFTER ALL, CIS WHE MEN OF ALL SEXUALI DO BENEF OM MANY PRIVILEG, AND HAVG MORE PRIVILEG GIV YOU MORE AVENU TO OPPRS PEOPLE, WHETHER TENTNAL OR NOT. BUT STEAD, POSE POTED OUT HOW ANYONE WH PRIVILEGE, EVEN MARGALIZED PEOPLE, EVEN PEOPLE WH MULTIPLE MARGALIZATNS, N OPPRS OTHERS TO UPHOLD THEIR OWN PRIVILEGE. AND SPECIFILLY THIS SE, HOW CIS QUEER PEOPLE (AND NOT JT THE WHE ON) ARE FAR TOO FORTABLE PERPETUATG TRANSPHOBIA. AND MORE PERSONALLY, HOW I HAVE BEEN AND NTUE TO BE FAR TOO FORTABLE PERPETUATG TRANSPHOBIA, EVEN IF I DON’T REALIZE . AND HOW WE NEED TO CHANGE.BGLTQ PEOPLE MAY BE THE SAME MUNY, BUT THAT DON’T MEAN WE ALL FACE THE SAME ISSU. LET’S NOT “ALL LIV MATTER” THIS. THERE ARE SPECIFIC AND REAL BARRIERS THAT TRANS, NON-BARY, AND GENRQUEER PEOPLE FACE THAT CIS PEOPLE DO NOT, OR AT LEAST NOT TO THE SAME GREE. THE CLU LACK OF HEALTHRE ACCS, AQUATE OR NONEXISTENT PROTECTNS OM EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMATN, AND A HIGH MURR RATE — ONE 2,600 FOR YOUNG BLACK TRANS WOMEN AMERI PARED TO ONE 12,000 FOR ALL YOUNG ADULTS. THE BARRIERS ARE SYMPTOMS OF A STCTURAL IMBALANCE THAT CIS PEOPLE BENEF OM AND NTUE TO UPHOLD. DRAWG ATTENTN TO THIS ISN’T DIVISIVE; ’S THE ONLY WAY THAT WE N ACHIEVE TE EQUALY FOR OUR ENTIRE MUNY. IT’S ABHORRENT THAT CISGENR QUEER PEOPLE WOULD BENEF OM AND PERPETUATE TRANSPHOBIA WHILE RELUCTANTLY THROWG A “T” TO THE ACRONYM AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT.WHILE TODAY’S MASTREAM BGLTQ MOVEMENT N BE NOTORLY CIS-CENTRIC, WE SHOULDN’T FET THAT THE FIRST PRI MARCH WERE MEMORATN OF THE STONEWALL RTS, LED BY TRANS WOMEN OF LOR MARSHA P. JOHNSON AND SYLVIA RIVERA. IT’S NO CINCE THAT A KEY TURNG POT THE MOVEMENT WAS TALYZED BY TRANS WOMEN OF LOR, YET THEY NTUE TO BE ERASED OM OUR MUNY. IN FACT, JT THIS PAST YEAR, ANTI-TRANS PROTTERS DISPTED LONDON’S PRI MARCH AND WERE EVENTUALLY ALLOWED TO LEAD THE MARCH. THE FACT THAT TRANSPHOB FELT FORTABLE SHARG HARMFUL RHETORIC AT A PRI MARCH — AND WERE EVEN REWARD WH THE HONOR OF LEADG THE MARCH — IS A RED FLAG FOR THE WAYS WHICH MASTREAM QUEER CULTURE DO NOT FORCE CISGENR PEOPLE TO TERROGATE THEIR OWN TRANSPHOBIC BIAS.THE FIRST STEP FIGHTG TRANSPHOBIA IS LISTENG TO TRANS PEOPLE. THEY SERVE MORE THAN JT A SEAT AT THE TABLE; THEY HELPED CREATE THE TABLE AND SHOULD BE LEADG OUR MOVEMENT WH A STRONG VOICE ANY CISN MA. A MOVEMENT THAT IS NOT CLIVE OF THE MOST MARGALIZED IS NOT A MOVEMENT AT ALL. COUNTLS TRANS, NON-BARY, AND GENRQUEER ACTIVISTS HAVE ALREADY POTED OUT THE TRANSPHOBIA THE BGLTQ MUNY AND HOW WE N BE BETTER, BUT CISGENR QUEER PEOPLE JT HAVEN’T ALWAYS BEEN LISTENG.SAM DYLAN FCH, A TRANS ACTIVIST WHO BLOGS AT “LET’S QUEER THGS UP,” HIGHLIGHTS THE IMPORTANCE OF RPECTG AND G PEOPLE’S RRECT PRONOUNS, WRG ON EVERYDAY FEMISM THAT “WHEN YOU MAKE THE CISN TO NOT RPECT SOMEONE’S PRONOUNS, WHAT YOU ARE ULTIMATELY SAYG IS THAT THEIR PERSONAL TTH IS SOMETHG YOU ARE MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THAN THEM.” SHIGE N. SAKURAI OM EXPLAS THAT “SHARG PRONOUNS IS A GREAT WAY TO DISPT THE NORMALIZATN AND PRIVILEGE OF ASSUMPTN,” SO CISGENR PEOPLE SHOULD MAKE A HAB TO TRODUCE OURSELV WH PRONOUNS. ADRIAN BALLOU, A GENRQUEER WRER AND ACTIVIST, EXPLAS HOW UNGENRG OUR LANGUAGE “N BRG ALL CLOSER TO GENR-BASED EEDOM.” LOURS ASHLEY HUNTER, THE -FOUNR OF THE TRANS WOMEN OF COLOR COLLECTIVE, TELLS CISGENR PEOPLE TO “LEVERAGE YOUR ACCS TO ROURC TO CREATE OPPORTUNI FOR OUR MUNY,” WHETHER THAT BE ACCS TO TNAL ROURC, MONEY, OR CERTA PROFSNS. THIS LIST OF BEHAVRS THAT TRANS, NON-BARY, AND GENRQUEER PEOPLE HAVE TOLD CIS PEOPLE TO DO TO HELP DISMANTLE CISNORMATIVY IS FAR OM EXHSTIVE.TO MY FELLOW CIS QUEER PEOPLE, WE NEED TO DO A BETTER JOB OF LISTENG TO TRANS PEOPLE AND THEN TERROGATG OUR OWN ACTNS AND BIAS. IT’S HYPOCRIL FOR TO MAND MORE THAN PERFORMATIVE ALLYSHIP OM CIS STRAIGHT PEOPLE AND THEN TURN AROUND AND PERFORM THE BARE MIMUM OF ALLYSHIP FOR TRANS MEMBERS OF OUR MUNY. WE N’T HI BEHD QUEER INTI TO ABSOLVE OM THE REAL HARM THAT CIS PEOPLE CREATE PERPETUATG TRANSPHOBIA. IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO JT CLU THE “T” WHEN SPELLG OUT THE ACRONYM. IF WE AREN’T ACTIVELY DISMANTLG CISNORMATIVY, BOTH WH SOCIETY AND WH OURSELV, THEN WE ARE PART OF THE {DISPLAY:BLOCK;MARG:0PX TO;WIDTH:100%;MAX-WIDTH:100%;BACKGROUND:TRANSPARENT;PADDG:10PX 0PX;} {FONT-FAY:'COLABORATE LIGHT','LUCIDA SANS UNI',SANS-SERIF;LOR:#333333;TEXT-ALIGN:CENTER;FONT-SIZE:0.7EM;TEXT-TRANSFORM:UPPERSE;DISPLAY:BLOCK;} {WIDTH:-WEBK-F-NTENT;WIDTH:-MOZ-F-NTENT;WIDTH:F-NTENT;MARG:0PX TO;TEXT-ALIGN:CENTER;}ADVERTISEMENTBECA J.

Sexual orientatn refers to the endurg physil, romantic and/or emotnal attractn to members of the same and/or other genrs, cludg lbian, gay, bisexual and straight orientatns. As GLAAD not, "Transgenr people may be straight, lbian, gay, bisexual or queer. A person who transns om female to male and is attracted solely to men would typilly intify as a gay man.

A transgenr man had female genals at birth but intifi as who are straight, gay, lbian, bisexual, or asexual and still intify themselv as the sex assigned to them at birth are everyone's sex at birth l up wh their genr inty. Gay or lbian means your attractn is to someone of the same sex.

GAY CULTURE HAS GROWN TOXIC WH UNCHECKED PRIVILEGE. IT'S TIME FOR TO RET

Gay men like other men.

For stance, a transgenr person n be straight or gay. This is long but thoughtful piece by Ben Appel that hs home on several pots about gay people and what’s happeng now.

For years, I feared homophobic right-wg evangelils.
