FAQ
Shibe Says: If there’s anything you want to know, never feel afraid to ask! These are just the absolute most basic questions that I expect to recieve and want to make sure are already cleared up!
q. What are your preferred pronouns?
a. My pronouns are Sie/Hir but They/Them is fine too (not preferred at all, though). Don’t use gendered terms for me, thanks (especially not female ones!). If you need help using my pronouns check out here!
q. What can I call you?
a. My name is Izzy, so there’s always that, but I also really enjoy the nickname Shibe! I use “Mx” (pronounced “mix”) in place of Mr/Mrs/Ms, and I use “Ser” (pronounced “sair”) in replace of Sir/Ma’am!
q. What are your privileges?
a. I’m white, middle class, dfab, and able-bodied. I’m sure there are more and if you’re curious feel free to ask.
q. Do you have any disabilities/disorders/illnesses? Are you neurotypical?
a. I have currently untreated anxiety disorder, I probably have depression but that’s a self diagnosis, and I’ve been told that I’m “high on the Aspergers spectrum scale” by a professional. I’m suicidal and I have panic attacks almost daily.
q. Do you hate cis people?
a. No, not at all. My best friend in the world and the love of my life is a cis lesbian and I love her more than anything. I know there can be both good and bad cis people. But I hate what cis people do to trans folk, I hate the fact that they murder and bully and oppress us, and I hate the fact that the world caters to them and barely acknowledges us as human.
q. Do you hate allies?
a. Support is great and acknowledgement is great but I hate allies that think they have a voice in trans issues and thus try to speak over us or put their own comfort before our safety.
q. Why did you make this blog?
a. To vent because I’m irritated by cis people a lot and don’t want my followers on my main or personal blog to see this shit because lots of them are anti-sjw or just don’t really care and I also don’t want to lose friends
q. [legitimate question regarding any topic]?
a. I don’t bite feel free to talk to me about anything! Just remember that I only answer questions publicly (you can always talk to me on anon though, that won’t make me take you less seriously <3)
