Many such cases. It's ironic that reactionaries are the greatest enforcers of gender ideology
i like it when trans women exist. i think there should be more trans women

Genuine question from me, a trans guy.
Why are so many current, self-identified Jungians super conservative and transphobic?
They hide behind ideas of the anima and animus as some kind of "proof" that trans and genderqueer people don't exist but tbh it's easier to argue the opposite, that the animus and anima are proof that we're all a bit non-binary and for some of us an aspect coult be out of keeping with sex assigned at birth anyway.
I wonder if some of them believe that archetypes are something immutable and in some way "proof" that the "natural order" is sticking to gender and other stereotypes, but when you look at archetypes from a more cross-cultural lens you can show that archetypes are fluid and ever changing.
It just reminds me of Jung's description of the dreams of former Nazis as becoming more escapist and filled with increasingly archaic traditionalist symbolism as a way to dissociate from trauma and cognitive dissonance?
But yes, interested in what other peoples' thoughts are.
"Everybody acts out a myth, but very few people know what their myth is."

I just discovered your blog & I love it! c: (I have a Christian/folky witch blog called rafaela-a-bruxa). Admittedly, I recently been struggling w/ my faith in the context of LGBTQIA+ (I am an ally & fully support LGBTQIA+ rights. But all the Christians around me & church are against it (unfortunately I'm surrounded by evangelicalism too..which sucks even more). As a gay Christian, can I ask how you blend both your faith and identity? (Feel free to message me if you wish).
Apologies for being late in getting to this ask but hiiii
I’ve put a few posts up re: clobber passages and how I resolve scriptural tensions if that’s what you mean (just look up “clobber passages”, “Leviticus” or “Romans” and they should pop up)
As for a more regular living sense, I kinda just have found a place where both flow very naturally from the same place for me. God is Love, and has called me to love in a particular way. God does not embody gender in a human way, and has called me into proximity with him by calling me in a similar way. I view my queerness as a vocation to which I am called the same as any other vocation—something I am honored to live and participate in and celebrate, despite hardships which may come my way or communal responses to it. It’s definitely hard when you don’t have people around you who understand, which is why I encourage seeking out community wherever possible, including across traditions and demographics, but I also hold that my queerness is spiritual and part of me and thus I am able to honor it faithfully even if it’s just me on my own thanking God for the fact that I was made a lesbian and am capable of loving others in a lesbian way (romantically, yes, as with my wonderful girlfriend, but also in the sense that being queer transforms your relationship with all forms of love including platonic).
