Prompting for HP Trans Fest is open from today until 15 January!

You can leave a prompt by accessing this link: https://forms.gle/CPEkVVUXkLvRLeN58

Before you do it, here’s a few reminders:

- This fest was created to celebrate trans characters, so we ask that a trans person is the main focus of the prompt you’re submitting; - We use trans is an umbrella term that covers any identity that doesn’t fit with the gender the person was assigned at birth (all non-cis identities), regardless of dysphoria, or the characters wanting to change their bodies surgically. - All ships and all eras welcome, as well as gen fic (no ship); - You can leave as many prompts as you’d like. Leaving prompts doesn’t mean you’ve got to claim one later; - If you would like to participate in the fest as a podficcer, you don’t have to submit a prompt. When Claiming starts, you’ll be able to sign up as a podficcer without a prompt. - This fest deals with mature subjects and the participants are responsible for curating their own experiences within the fest. This applies to viewing the prompts list, which is uncensored; -  Around here, we believe in “don’t like, don’t read”, “YKINMKATO”, “ship and let ship”, which means we will not be tolerating any kinds of kink shaming, ship shaming, harassment, hate speech, or general bigotry.

You can check out the prompts as they’re being sent here:  bit.ly/3GwgJ9L

A sorted list for easier browsing will be released once prompting is done.

If you have any questions, please send us a message here or on our email: [email protected]

Part of the @transwizardtournament and my HP Jackets series ❤️❤️❤️

So far I only posted them on insta but I will post them here as well after a do over of the first ones.

A transgender couple celebrated their love in Bengal’s first ever trans wedding

Tista Das, a transgender activist and actress, married her partner Dipan Chakraborty in a Hindu ceremony  in Agarpara, Kolkata in front of friends, neighbours and family members.

The couple met while Tista was working at a trans legal clinic. Dipan is also transgender. 

More over at Pink News.

“This wedding will boost the transgender community. It will  have a huge impact as the trans community fears being  rejected by society. I wish Dipan and Tista a happy married  life. They are both wonderful human beings,” said Aparajita Bose, a member Human Rights Law Network Kolkata, to The Times of India. 

Every act of trans acceptance, of gay love, anything that rejects strict heterosexual gender norms in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh is an act of anticolonial resistance. It’s been over 250 years, but brown people are slowly taking their countries back

not to Discourse but I’m a cis man and my partner is an afab enby and if you call us a “straight couple” I will personally come to your house tie you to a chair and make you listen to a podcast about gender identity on endless repeat

this is specifically @ the people who saw us at pride together and saw them wearing a “THEY/THEM” button and still referred to them as my “girlfriend” you’re all cancelled thanks

it’s called respecting queer people juice

y'know the really amazing thing about the notes on this post - apart from just the sheer number of people who are, like, viscerally terrified of the existence of a person who isn’t cis - is how many of them are responding to things that aren’t here. specifically, you’ll notice I said nothing about my sexuality. I didn’t say I identified as non-het, or that I considered myself part of the LGBTQIA community. on the flip side, I also didn’t give you any reason to believe I’m not bi, or that I’ve never been in a relationship with a cis man. y'all know nothing about my sexuality from this post and you don’t need to and I’m not going to tell you about it now because! this post! was not! about me!

it was about respecting my partner’s identity. and the fact that they don’t get that respect from people in the exact community that they should be able to count on getting it from.

ie, you.

they are not het or cis, and no relationship they are in will ever be a “straight relationship” because they. are not. het. or. cis.

everyone in the notes gatekeeping me because I’m “not oppressed”? I never said I was. the person you’re really attacking and invalidating by shitting on this post is them, a pansexual nonbinary person who is unerasably queer.

huh. it’s almost as if the whole “we can’t let straight men use queerness to worm their way into our community” discourse is just an excuse to hate trans people, isn’t it.

#people really show their asses when theyre faced with nb people in relationships#good on you op youre a great boyfriend

Hey OP? You’re great, and I hope you and your partner are doing great.

it’s almost as if the whole “we can’t let straight men use queerness to worm their way into our community” discourse is just an excuse to hate trans people, isn’t it.
