Friends, there's a new May Leitz shirt available for a limited time! We're doing two weeks of pre-orders, then the orders will be shipped two weeks after that. Get it while the getting is good!
Show idea:
It's Queer Eye but 5 transpeople assisting other struggling transpeople find a look that works for them, come out and build a safe healthy lifestyle.
Then folks will watch on Netflix and really get a sense for the struggle and will empathize leading to more acceptance.
I'm strongly of the opinion that we should be supporting queer creators more than characters. People are starving for LGBT+ representation in media, but creators and their perspectives are far more important than a corporate representation of a queer person.
A cop made me get in his squad car, and then interrogated me about my and my partners genitals at a routine traffic stop because I told him we were trans. We cooperated and were harassed, separated, and humiliated for over an hour before he let us go.
My girlfriend kissed me in public and this woman next to us yelled NOPE and turned her and her children around to look away and honestly, it feels good to possess such power over southern moms.
Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers.
He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.
Happy
#TransDayOfVisibility
everyone!
My name is May, I'm a YouTuber and filmmaker and I'm trans!
I've known for years but only recently came out, but don't feel like I'm in a safe enough place to present how I want. But I hope in a few months I'll be able to live my way. 💜💜💜
Bisexuals deserve every bit of their place within LGBTQIA+ spaces. In my experience, bisexuals also deal with marginalization and descrimination, despite being awesome and cool. The fact people want to gatekeep bisexuals in the community should tell you that.
HOLY SHIT
an older lady came up to me in the mall food court and told me she thought I was so pretty and I just stared at her, in shock that it was happening and just started crying.
Oh my GOD
Comments have been riddled with transphobia today, could use some positivity. Thank you all for the big support though, this video is doing really well and I’m already at work on tier 2
Apparently saying I don't want transphobes to follow me (because I deserve respect) is too political for many users (who don't respect me).
Unfortunately for them uh...my existence and well-being and desire to lead a peaceful life is political now.
Reminder that cancel culture is real to the marginalized people that are attacked and ousted for the most minor thing, and cancel culture is not real when a celebrity is criticized for being transphobic or sexually abusing someone.
Y'all ever think about how drag is this expansive art form of different genders and expressions and Drag Race only ever platforms cis men? I think about that a lot.
So
@MoviePass
just sent me this bizarre email about why the app is basically unusable now.
I mean I've heard a lot of strange defenses but 'i am literally a dog' is a fuckin new one.
Ideally we should have both. But in reality, we have tons of queer creators living in poverty desperately trying to keep creating and hitting wall after wall, and the main focus of the conversation on queer media is always about asking some cis guy to personify us.
I dislike the joke that Hatsune Miku wrote Harry Potter because it magically excuses all the weird biases and kinda not great things that are ALL THROUGHOUT Harry Potter
just took an antipsychotic for my schizophrenia for the first time and it literally feels night and day better in like 20 mins. literally crying, I've struggled with this my whole life.
I went without makeup today for the first time in forever and I felt pretty confident about it. Laser hair removal has just about gotten all my facial hair off! Gender euphoria is real y'all. I'm doing really great lately and I can feel things are only getting better.
In 2018 I:
-doubled my subscribers
-moved out on my own
-came out as trans
-wrecked all my IRL relationships beyond repair
-got a job I didn't need to be social again
-met some beautiful people
-wrote a novel
-recorded 4 albums
-seriously addressed my mental health
I did it.
Well fam, we just got rejected for our apartment because I don't make enough money and they didn't like it that I was transgender and had an older name. So basically they stole $200 and ran away. So cool day.
So at very, very long last, I talked the my mom about the gender and HRT stuff and it turns out, she was super understanding.
It feels like I've been holding my breath for years.
Exhaling.
Right after the show, I overheard someone ask my mom why she was there, and she pointed at me across the room and said "that's my daughter" and I nearly broke down.
Holy shit.
the surgeon refused to see me because I was trans even though I told the office ahead of time. he did give me info on someone that takes care of 'my people' tho. I drove over an hour for 3 minutes of rejection.
Every time JK Rowling does anything, there's this big wave of support for trans artists. So I figure now is a great time to remind everyone I am a trans artist. Hi.
Yesterday we raised $6200 for my gender affirming surgeries. My first surgery is on December 6th and is $10k. This will pay for over half of it.
Fucking thank you.
Hey, uh, I could really use the money for my transition and meds and living and funding videos and music and all these projects I'm doing. If you want to support me, here's my link:
Thank you. I love you all so much.

Okay so, this is me, it's not perfect, it's a work in progress but on this day, this is what I look like. There's a lot of dysphoria here but every day it lessens. One day, maybe it will be behind me. I am holding on to hope, you should too.
The first time I used the name 'May' was in Pokemon Crystal when I was 6. I pre-ordered the game because I heard you could play as a girl. I named her May and played every day for four years, long after completing the game and the Pokedex. I just wanted to live in the game.
Hey, trans people, what is your
#TransNameStory
? How did you pick your name? I named myself after the main character of one of my books because I wanted to be just like her.
so I wrote a really gross horror fiction novel called Fluids. I'm gonna start editing it this week but dang... that's the big news. I finished the draft last night.
so
@OnlyFans
won't allow my wife
@rosaskittyghost
her payout because of her name. Azrael has a court order stating her legal name but
@OnlyFansSupport
is choosing to ignore that and not pay her. This is transphobic and sucks.
