Hi! I'm Danny Redwoods. I'm a kinky queer trans guy who makes porn. I'm into bdsm primarily, but my kinks run deep and wide and are always expanding.

Besides kinks, right now I'm into comedy (in all forms), horror/thriller, fashion/style, Hazbin Hotel, Cyberpunk 2077, youtube, Jerma985, weed, and the Real Housewives.

Dear society: you could just drop "sir" and "ma'am" and other gendered terms from your public service patter. Literally no one would know it wasn't there, and you'd save so much grief in the world.

"Thanks, have a good day!" has the same weight and impact as "Thanks, have a good day, sir!" No one would know. You could make this change right now, and save the sanity of so many people, trans and cis alike.

So YouTuber and streamer Finnster has come out as #trans. A lot of people saw this coming, unsurprisingly.

But he's also done something else profound: he's normalising the journey of cross-dressing to femboy to transgender. Because that's very similar to my journey. And I think a lot of people don't grasp that that's also an entirely valid path to take.

Eggs can crack in all different ways at all different times for all different reasons.


Here is a study being done of adult neopronoun users.

You'll get paid USD$15 for the interview. Filling out the form is just expressing interest, you can still decline the interview. They're also asking if you have a friend or "buddy" they can interview, as in they'll be asking questions about you I presume. You must be fluent in English.

Looks like the person conducting the study is a "cool" linguist who's done other neat studies that someone goes on to link to in the thread I've linked above. :3

I technically use neopronouns, so I might fill out the form to express interest, though I'm uncertain who I would reference as a "buddy" for them to interview too. But that might not be necessary.

If you are #trans and a US citizen, you should absolutely, 100% apply for a passport this year, whether you plan to travel or not. Yes, it costs $$, but you can self-select your gender without bureaucratic BS (thanks, Joe), and it lasts 10 years and is valid ID everywhere in the world. Whatever fascist laws your GOP reps are proposing in your state legislature about gender markers on IDs, you will have a federal document that reflects your actual gender. And if necessary, you can use it to leave the country.

A reminder to my #Trans Family - especially those who are early in transition:

It's Okay to Lie to Gatekeepers

Psychs/Therapists who are writing your letters, Doctors who prescribe you hormones or surgeries, ESPECIALLY insurance companies who want to get out of paying for any of it. Tell them the stories they want to hear in order to get the care you need.

If they're going to require you to fit some narrative about how you "always struggled with your gender as long as you can remember", then tell them about that time you cried at the Halloween store when your mom wouldn't let you get the Wonder Woman costume - whether it happened or not. Tell them about how you always wished you had dolls and instead had to quietly make due with secretly having tea parties with your GI Joes or rocking your Transformers to sleep. Whatever.

If they say you have to have "Real Life Experience" as your gender for X months, they're not going to hire a PI to investigate. Just tell them how you've been wearing women's clothes and how your friends and coworkers call you your name and pronouns that you asked them to call you. You're a woman, you were wearing clothes, therefore you have always been wearing women's clothes. You don't have to mention that you haven't asked them to call them your REAL name and pronouns yet - they're all calling you by the name and pronouns that you asked them to originally.

If they're refusing to increase your HRT dosage unless your labwork shows your levels are "too low", skip a dose/do a shot a few days early/whatever to make the numbers tell the doctor what they want to see.

Whatever. Do what steps you have to do to get the care you need. It's okay.


Hey, precious creature.

I truly see you.

Enby. Woman. Man. Therian. Plural. Entity. Gay. Bisexual. Intersex. Trans.

Worthy of respect.

So many labels could and do describe you. They may or may not be invisible to most eyes, but I see you as you are. As you want, or need, to be seen.

You are amazing. I wish everyone could see you as I do. Maybe one day, they will.

Stay awesome, and never stop being you. It's worth it.

💙💙💙

Apparently the BBC (UK) has had 144 complaints about a recent episode of #DoctorWho because it contained an openly #trans character.

I'm going to make a complaint to the BBC that there weren't enough #transgender characters in Doctor Who. I would love if 144 other people did the same thing. Here's the link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/contact/complaints/make-a-complaint/#/Complaint

(For your easy reference: "The Star Beast" aired on 25/11/2023, BBC One, and the trans character is called Rose.)

Reply when you've done it, so we can count us all. When we get to 145, everyone... gets a free BLÅHAJ? 🦈

Edit: 2 days later, mission successful: 159 complaints/comments submitted, and still climbing! A *huge* thank you everyone - stay tuned for hopefully some freedom of information requests!


Oakland trans woman had to remain closeted for years to get work in taquerias. She managed to get gender affirming care, and then realized her dream and bought a taco truck. She opened two months ago. Now, her taco truck has been stolen, and apparently her insurance company won't cover the loss. If you have a few bucks to share to help a trans woman of color recover her business after this devastating loss, click this link to the GoFundMe her friend set up for her. https://www.gofundme.com/f/miss-chiles-enya-sandoval

I have just read the Interview with Georg Romer from University Hospital Münster in "Süddeutsche Zeitung" titled "Wait and See is Not an Option!"

He is a child and young adult psychiatrist. The interview is really very long.

But the gist is that this Georg Romer is really one of the Saints that we wish for.

The questions asked by the newspaper were great, mentioning all the controversy in society, asking tough questions (but in a very respectful manner), asking things like "what about the impression that transition numbers just exploded and that this is 'fashionable' at the moment" and so on.

During the interview Alexander Knote from LMU Munich was also mentioned aht Georg Romer was asked why he refused to talk / discuss with Alexander Knote.

In essence, A. Knote says that "coming out as trans gender has become fashionable among the AFAB." He then continues to prove that by showing that in Germany 85% of trans gender people AFAB trans men.

Georg Romer takes that as data and looks at "why is that so" in a different way. He analyses the societal environment and comes to the conlusing that the actual number of trans woman is significantly higher than the 15% but the fact that trans women have a significantly higher chance of being discriminated against, hated, or even experience violence is the actual reason why we don't see more trans women coming out. And yes, contrary to A. Knote, Georg Romer has scientific data on that.

A few machine translated excerpts:
---
Some of your colleagues report that young people are becoming more and more demanding and doctors are called transphobic if they do not immediately accept being trans as given without question. Do you experience that too?

Not at all. If we want to avoid an escalation of sensitivities in the doctor-patient relationship, it starts with ourselves. We must understand and respect that there is already a long history of discrimination, pathologization and bullying of trans people in medicine at every first encounter. I think the young people immediately feel the attitude and agenda with which they are met.

So it is the responsibility of the doctors how well the young people cooperate?

We doctors have to get away from the idea that we define whether someone is trans or not. It starts with the speech in the waiting room. I always ask first of all with which name someone would like to be addressed. With this, I do not determine anything for the future, but I signal: I see you, I respect you, I listen to you.
...
---
At the end he says:
I also think of a sentence in a letter that the mother of a 13-year-old trans boy once wrote to us: Without the treatment, we would steal the boy's youth. Every person deserves the chance to remember a happy youth for the rest of their lives. If we force young people to live through these years in the wrong sex, then this hardship of the children is in every class photo, in every memory of a school trip that you still had to experience in the old sex. People who only begin their transition as adults often eras these years of youth in their memory. That's very sad. A coherent identity, even in youth, contributes to the happiness of life.

The interview is here: if you can get it free and want to read it in your language, I guess you need a machine translation

My queer platonic partner Luke and I are both trans, neurodivergent, and disabled. We are currently homeless and living out of our van with our two cats.

We are in need of mutual aid donations to help us be able to afford food, gas, and other necessities, along with our phone bill on the 4th of $100.

Hi #Fediverse, we are an #LGBTQ family in the US who have just fled a red state, and are raising survival funds. Money donated this week will go toward groceries, gas, household supplies, and an emergency vet bill for our dog Loki.

Our fundraiser is currently at $7553 — we really need to hit $8553 by June 10th to stay on track. Every bit counts!

Microsoft's AI is boosting fake stories about sex changes for toddlers on the MSN service, blindly furthering the extreme right's project to eliminate trans people.

The issue with MSN's algorithmic aggregation after they fired their human team was first brought to their attention last December, when the service boosted fake stories about Bigfoot and Mermaids. #trans #journalism #AI

An #anthropologist attends a #CPAC conference ( #conservative #RightWing #America) and reports on their findings of the attitude towards #trans folks.

This being @SAPIENS_org, it is well thought through, fully supportive of trans folks and focused on debunking some of the #myths that the right perpetuate.

I'm really pleased to see serious #academic #writing focused on supporting trans folks. Will the right wing read this? Probably not. Will people who are unaware of the attacks trans folk experience every day read this? Quite probably. Will it help to increase understanding, empathy and allyship? I sincerely hope so.

I've just discovered that there's a petition on the #UK government petitions website to remove #LGBT content from the curriculum, effectively resurrecting the horrendous Section 28 from the 1980s.

There is also a counter-petition. As of this morning, the remove petition has over 178,000 signatures, the counter-petition has just over 2,500 signatures.

Please sign the counter-petition.

I just had the worst #interview of my entire #career . It turned out to be an insightful list of precisely how NOT to attract talent. In that way, it was really useful to me as a candidate.

Presented for your amusement, here's a thread of what I asked. It's going to be a longboi, but here's my absolute favorite:

🚩 Do you have any queer peers? Is this a safe place for them to work? "We don't talk about that here."

Per @charlotteclymer / @ cmclymer on the 🐦 site, there are unconfirmed reports coming out that several power substations in Moore County, NC have been damaged by individuals potentially affiliated with the far-right in order to cut power to a Drag Show being hosted at the Sunrise Theater. One woman, a former army officer involved in the January 6th event named Emily Rainey, is believed to be involved due to posts made via her Facebook. If you or anyone you know is in the Moore County area, please stay safe and arm yourselves if necessary. If these people/ groups are willing to cut power to 40,000 people just to stop a drag show, there's no telling what they might do next. Original thread linked below:

Me and My Dysphoria Monster is a children's book, illustrated by Ang Hui Qing, which aims to discuss gender dysphoria in child approachable language.

The book focuses on a hopeful and optimistic future, and contains an adults reference guide at the back.
