What Strength Really Means 💪

Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.

I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.

Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔

Help Abdelmajed Escape Gaza and Rebuild His Life

My name is Abdelmajed, and I am a survivor of the war in Gaza. Everything I once knew has been taken away—my home, my safety, and the people

Tumblr pictures on Pinterest make me feel like they will either drag me down to hell or ascend me to quiet but almighty godhood and the only thing keeping me in limbo is the both of them pulling my ring fingers like tug of war.

Yes I am aware that I now have tumblr, but I’m still looking at tumblr screenshots on Pinterest because brain is sooup

My Pinterest is glitchy as fuck and won’t let me comment/reply most of the time and also I can’t see my keyboard when I’m typing and it drives me batshit crazy

So instead of informing the person I wanted to inform on Pinterest why pipeline punch monster energy is actually a valid gender, I’m gonna tell you.

Xenogenders were created for I believe autistic or general neurodivergent people.

Not everybody experiences the concept of gender in the same way, and sometimes we just can’t find the right terms to explain exactly how we feel, so we get as close as possible.

A bridge example is the singular xenogender label that I personally am considering. It’s a song gender of Savage Daughter. I think my gender fluctuates, I don’t think I’m a girl a lot of the time, but when I listen to that song I feel a deep sort of femininity that is specifically like a wild woman in folklore. I could stand to be a girl if I was a wild woman in folklore, but not in the modern interpretation of femininity. The way in which I am feminine is raw and open, and if it was anything but a xenogender based on a song it would be much more widely accepted.

And people who use xenogender labels don’t hurt anyone. The only way I can think of would be queerphobes or people new to the concept of queerness getting overwhelmed by things they can’t understand yet, but that’s why we take things one step at a time. Just because not everybody can do multiplication doesn’t mean algebra doesn’t exist.

I understand the feeling. It doesn’t make sense, it seems like a mockery. But it’s not a mockery, it’s genuinely how these people feel and it’s the best way for them to communicate themselves.

TLDR: let people use xenogenders. They are doing their best. It’s not your problem. Try to be kind, as a general life principle.

sometimes we (i) forgot
