If you want me stop behaving in a disruptive manner, then stop telling me to be a guy and stop trolling me with male names and an implication that male me was somehow superior.
You miss me, but I'm still alive. You could get to know the new me, and that would be far more useful and helpful than this bullshit. My skirts and dresses aren't up for debate. That's my style; that's what travesti means. I got some money for the bus from my Mum, so I'll be there bright and early for Te Pāti Māori's Wellington protest.👋 - For the bigots who think I should be straight:
No, of course I don't regret coming out; I lost my family and friends, but I discovered a new family through the Daktory, and I also met some really cool and interesting people via my political activism that inspired me to become Amanda.
If my rights were legally protected, it would significantly reduce my mental distress.
I don't want to play guitar. It's fucking annoying when people say shit like 'go play a song instead of annoying us (when you're trying to tell me to be a guy)' 🤬
That's what I've been fighting against; I'm attempting to be a better political activist rather than a better musician because that's honestly what counts, given my propensity for taking psychedelics and being trans.
Imagine a future where both those things are legal and socially accepted, rather than pretending that I'm 'just a guy' so that you all feel comfortable in your bougie reality.
No 't he' only AMANDA
always she.
I refuse to help your students.
I don't want to because you dislike me.
I want explicit and actual discussions regarding my penis to happen.
Otherwise, I'm going to presume that it was all a bunch of cis people that were challenged by my bulge and are surprised to discover that's legal.
That's what I think is fair.
New Zealand cannot force me to make a series. They simply cannot.
I pitched several documentaries and I actually pitched the feature that I want to make.
Therefore, they can fuck off.
NZ can let me make Shipwrecked 2030, or they can bugger off.
Nobody loved POAK or These Words when those were first premiered either, but over time people grew to love those. 🌿
I dropped the 'they' pronoun, despite apparently popularising it. I feel like a woman, and that's fairly core to my being. I thought initially that a female name would be enough to make me feel accepted, but then I discovered that without the pronouns it felt very hollow. So, yeah, I'm going by Amanda and using she pronouns. 🏳️⚧️
