@StarNosedMoles
Lol every concern about predatory cys men always forgets that they don’t need tricks or work arounds to be horrible because society is built around them
Congrats on importanting cis understanding of gender and solidarity, I hope sucking up to radfems was worth a good chunk of our trans sibling’s trust and wellbeing
Predatory cys men don’t need to pretend to be trans to harass or assault women PERIOD
what you’re doing is just pushing the scaremongering onto trans men
If you believe this idea that men are dressing up as women to enter women’s washrooms (and you shouldn’t), banning trans women from women’s washrooms and trans men from men’s washrooms isn’t going to help.
You’re just removing the step of men having to dress up as a woman.
Sorry not sorry
Bi women *can* be lesbians
Transmascs *can* be lesbians
Trans men *can* be lesbians
Lesbians don’t need to be gold star lesbians to be lesbians
Stop using the threat of c i s men as an excuse to harass and exclude lesbians
“If you think trans men can be lesbians then you don’t see them as men”
Stop projecting your transphobia onto me cause I respect ALL queer people’s identities
See this is why I don’t waste my time trying to find community irl cause the most supported trans people in my area are transmeds and hate trans people other than your typical white 4chan woman
17 year old he/theys simply do not get to have opinions about trans women no matter how many flimsy layers of racial politics they disguise them behind
Maybe when people stop thinking trans men and trans women are polar opposites(where if one is oppressed the other is the oppressor) then maybe we’ll have some progress for our communities again
Some people let their dysphoria get to them in a way that makes them see any depiction of their gender that goes against their goals or beauty standards as transphobic. Like fear rules their perception of how trans people should look and I think that’s sad
Trans women can have/want:
- Facial hair
- Body hair
- Flat chests
- No bottom surgery
- Short hair
- Traditionally “masculine” clothing
- He/him pronouns
- A traditionally “male” name
And it makes them no “less Trans”.
The same people that see depictions of masculine trans women in media as caricatures somehow think society is gonna accept non-medically transitioning trans people
trans solidarity 4ever but sometimes it bothers me how often (some) nonbinary people just assume everyone is chill with being ungendered and neutralized. excuse me for wanting something more than just un-manhood out of my transition but i am a woman and u will refer to me as such
It’s also funny people think I’m not medically transitioning when I talk about this shit
Cause like idk I want to support all trans people, not just those like me
I’ve noticed how many of the transfeminists that constantly shit on trans men and transmascs are almost always transmeds/truscum
So many usages of terms like “theyfab” and “tenderqueer” I’m actually surprised they haven’t brought back “transtrender” as a term to throw around
You know you don’t have to shit on transmascs/ trans men and be transmisogynistic to deal with your insecurities and personal issues
Like abusing other trans people won’t bring you to liberation
We got girls calling themselves transfeminists when all they do is start discourse, hate on other trans people (including enbies), and being transmisogynistic towards other trans women
One of the biggest “so you hate waffles” in the trans community online is that when people say that you’re trans enough / valid enough even without medically transitioning a bunch of people go “stop trying to pressure people to not transition”
Like honey that’s a different thing
I so totally love that the notion of protecting trans women from transmisogyny goes out the window as soon as a masculine trans woman feels comfortable in herself or someone depicts masculine trans women /s
Some trans people on here love to project their dysphoria onto other trans people. Whether it’s a weirdo that uses terms like “passiod” or someone who sees nonconforming and or nonbinary trans people as self harming or “transtrenders”.
Personally I’m tired of birthday girls writing these big threads about how evil transmascs and trans men are and then when called out for the harmful lies and rhetoric they cry transmisogyny
If you find yourself denying a transfem/trans woman’s gender because they’re pronouns might include she/he, you’re a fucking transmisogynist and a terrible transfeminist
Personally I don’t think a person who has been in lesbian communities since before transition are predatory for having fears and anxiety about terfs and separatists that unfortunately reside in those communities
Especially in regards to their gender and sexuality being questioned
Honestly fuck the constant DIY discourse cause many of the people that are supposedly pro DIY just use it to be condescendingly smug while also disregarding the concerns of trans people in regards to DIY, especially trans PoC
If you don’t know about what I’m talking about in the second tweet, don’t worry you can ignore it and focus on the first tweet. Cause like I’m tired and don’t really wanna explain rn.
Honestly I’ll just say it
A big chunk of trans twitter sees masculinity as a failure to transition to being a woman (even though we’ve ALWAYS been women before transition)
I so totally love that the notion of protecting trans women from transmisogyny goes out the window as soon as a masculine trans woman feels comfortable in herself or someone depicts masculine trans women /s
