Y’all, we have a problem.

These are some of the results of a survey done on our community concerning gender identity:

1.08% Binary Trans men (4).

1.08% Transmasculine people (4).

1.35% Cis women (5).

That’s right, there are more CIS WOMEN on a TRANS community than binary trans men or transmasculine people alone.

We have a problem.

This isn’t just a Blahaj problem. Another queer instance did a similar survey and found only 3% of their users were trans and use he/him pronouns.

Not having enough transmasc voices is going to be detrimental to our community. There are plenty of transmasc people on the internet. The problem is with Lemmy.

So what are we gonna do about it?

  • Recommend this community to transmascs or on transmasc communities and make posts that will attract them! :3 The problem as always would be getting new people to make a lemmy account and understand how the fediverse works but they might like Blahaj Lemmy!

    Also, anyone on the fediverse could participate on that poll, I’m 100% sure there wouldn’t have been THAT many cis people if participation was somehow exclusive to people from this community, if u ask a question about identity everyone that sees it will feel the urge to answer it :p
