Rules

- Posts must be trans related.
- No bigotry.
- Do not post or link to pornography.
- If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.
- Posts that assume the viewer’s gender and/or contain potentially triggering content must be spoilered and tagged at the beginning of the post title. Example content-warning tags that you can copy include the following:
[CW: Assumes Viewer is Transmasc][CW: Assumes Viewer is Transfem][CW: Assumes Viewer is Nonbinary][CW: Transphobia][CW: Violence][CW: Weapons/Firearms][CW: Disturbing Imagery]
- Mods can be arbitrary.
Because it apparently has to be said, this community is supportive of all forms of DIY HRT.

[Transfem/Transmasc/Non-binary]
- Include image description when possible.

Hey, uh, please don't appropriate AAE.
Edit: Thanks so much for listening to us!
Edit 2: To all the people still arguing about this: Enough! We said all that we are going to say on the matter, if any care that much they should also go listen to black people, research history, language, colonialism. We get it, people don't like their 'toys' being taken away for no reward beyond being a good person, but it's the right thing to do.
It's an established meme phrase, I would be reluctant to call it appropriation at this point. It's just a phrase that's made it into general circulation.
No, it is, it came from AAE, it being a 'meme phrase' doesn't change that.
Online culture is inextricable from american and thus black culture, asking people to not use decade old memes won't be fruitful. It'd be like asking someone with dreads to change their hair to make you more comfortable.
