Being attacked for saying trans men are not oppressors of trans women. This website is hell. You've think we had enough of t*rfs and transmeds now there's fucking b*ddesls too. Funny how they all start saying "TME is not about trans men it's not bad" and then go on full rant about how much they hate trans men.

[theypawzed]

let's revisit one of the most basic mainstream feminist issues: the wage gap. example being drawn from the usa in this case. if an otherwise demographically identical trans man and trans woman are both being considered for a job, who's getting hired? who would be getting paid more in that theoretical job, if it's offered?

oppression is systemic. you are not an innately bad person for having systemic privilege over other people. trans men experience economic and social privileges over trans women of otherwise similar demographics, because men are systemically privileged over women based upon their gender. this dynamic is not somehow erased when the man and woman in question are both transgender, both black, both gay, etc. you can be marginalized in one facet of oppression while privileged in others.

This study measures the median income, which means that if 20% of transwomen earned millions, transwomen's median income would still be 60 cents. We could therefore obtain a distribution showing that transwomen are disproportionally more likely to be rich AND very poor compared to the average population or trans men, but these data don't allow us to account for it; all we know is that half of them earn 60 cents or less compared to the typical usa worker (100 cents).

What's more, this study does not take into account trans people's passing status, race and sexual orientation. We don't know if the trans men and transwomen included in this study are representative of their respective groups.

[pallpokipoki]

Transfems are trying to disempower afabs not so that amabs and afabs have equal group powers in queer/progressive/leftist contexts, so that there is no longer domination by any agab, but they are specifically trying to establish amab domination and therefore subjugate afabs because they fear that if afabs are not under amab control they will almost inevitably reconstitute themselves as a terf political force, and therefore reproduce transfem oppression.

The subjugation of afabs to amabs is therefore seen as a way of minimizing the risk of the terf threat, a way to keeping it under control.

You have to get it into your head that transfems see afabs, whether cis, trans or non-binary, as a terf threat.

So why *can't* we have a word for, "adult human female?" Seems like a significant group with lots in common (and lots to talk about.) And why can't that word be "woman?"

[pillarsalt]

The biggest threat to male supremacy is class consciousness among women. If they let us out of their sight for a second, we might realize how much insidious bullshit men put us through all our lives, and how we can rely on each other instead of depending on them. No way to label ourselves cohesively = no female solidarity. It's absolutely by design.

[bigsistergeneral]

It’s a male supremacist movement

[museumofferedophelia]

It's funny how lesbianism, the one sexuality that completely excludes men, is the one that's most deconstructed, discussed, attacked, and met with unwanted attempts to forcibly alter it's meaning.

The ONE sexuality that excludes men.

[fingerlickinbutch-deactivated20]

I really would like a trans activist to explain to me exactly what I’m supposed to find attractive about trans women as a lesbian. Women turn me on and while that does very much include pussy, that’s not the only thing, it’s the entire female form. Looking at a male body does absolutely nothing for me and penises are just plain gross.

Why is this acceptable to say about cis men but not trans women? Why am I expected to find anyone who goes by “she” attractive? Literally what is the difference, sexually speaking, between a gender conforming straight man and a trans butch lesbian?

Seriously, I’d like an actual answer.

[sapphicobsesssion]

This is literally such a gross statement. Like transphobic fucking garbage. Lesbianism is the attraction to the female gender not their genitalia. You're also assuming that all transwomen have XY genitalia which isn't the case at all. So you stating your personal genitalia preference is valid sure but saying it in such a disgusting way really speaks volumes on you as a person not your opinion on lesbianism and what a woman should be.

[asukam]

why do women who are exclusively same sex attracted get to have no say in what a lesbian is? why don't our opinions matter? what are exclusively same sex attracted women if not lesbians?

you can change the definition of lesbian, but you can't change our sexual orientation. hating us for what we can't change about ourselves is still the same old homophobia with a new coat of paint.

[bisexualcarriefisher]

it’s so insane that “your personal genitalia preference” is a serious term people write these days

[bigsistergeneral]

These people fucking hate women and there’s no denying it.

This is the same kind of misogynistic r*pe “joke” you see from fascist men

[bigsistergeneral]

These people fucking hate women and there’s no denying it.

[honeylemony]

"oh men dont ACTUALLY want to rape lesbians" "including men in lesbianism doesn't hurt ANYONE" "gay men and women fuck each other ALL the time"

You should look at the #dykebreaking #lesbianrape or #lgetsd tags on here sometime. It is genuinely so disgusting and terrifying how many men dream of sexually harming lesbians. We're just trying to exist and they create whole communities obsessed with violently invading our lives.

Dont ever tell me again that "bi/pan lesbian" rhetoric doesnt harm lesbians. Saying that men are included in lesbianism directly upholds rape culture and lesbophobic ideals.

We do not want to be with men. Lesbianism does not include men. Lesbians DO NOT FUCK MEN.

[radicalwhimsy-deactivated202401]

heterosexual males feeling comfortable uttering the words "trans d*ke" or "trans lesbian" and forcibly self inserting themselves into lesbian spaces and demanding lesbians to question their sexuality when they are fully aware that lesbianism entails exclusive female-only same-sex attraction are in fact sexual predators.

There is so much evidence of men wanting to rape lesbians there is no room left for doubt.

[redditreceipts]

"I don't know why very few cis lesbians join in"

dude, I do actually have an idea for why that could be, but i think you don't want to hear that

"it's not enough to just accept us, you have to talk about penises all of the time actually"

[elffaepunk-moved-deactivated202]

Just bc conversion therapists ask gay men to like vaginas.....doesn't mean gay men can't self reflect and like vaginas on their own. There's nothing that says gay men can't like a person more than their parts, or stuff his face with pussy for a good time!

thank u! this is what i’ve been trying to say lol

[fuckthapope]

PLEASE SAY YOU'RE JOKING

[lesbian-lizards]

Except that is...literally what they try to do in 'modern’ conversion therapy.

They basically try to talk homosexuals into “examining” our own orientations in the hope that we will turn bi. This is from a pamphlet about SAFE-T, which is just gay conversion therapy rebranded.

[yassss-black-diaspora]

I mean a round of applause for this galaxy brain argument of “yes im using conversion rhetoric but have you ever considered that being gay is wrong” .... woke homophobia is really like .... that lmao

[platinum-iridium]

new label just dropped

[killjoyfem-deactivated20250218]

The demonization of feminists through a progressive lens is truly the most effective political strategy I have ever seen. Everyday I see people coming up with new ways to shit on women and women’s rights movements.

[aman1taverna]

someone has probably written more/ more eloquently about this but I am deeply disturbed by this idea that feminism that doesn't do a good enough job of covering everyone is less than worthless . "just" advocating for women isn not only not good enough, but somehow harmful to men, if you talk about women's issues without specifically mentioning every intersectionality then you're intentionally excluding them, etc

[bigsistergeneral]

feminism is the only movement that is expected to focus on everyone’s problems

[lettucefem]

maybe this hasn't come up much bc nobody's actually listening to ethel cain's music but apparently his whole gimmick is "taboo daddy's naughty preacher girl"? like he has a song called inbred?? everything screams perverse sexual fetishes but with him specifically imagining it happening to him as a girl??? just another gay dude getting off to thinking of himself experiencing female sexual violence, and as a woman bc to him woman = sexual object for male fantasies such as his own.

His whole gimmick is singing from the perspective of a traumatised Catholic girl who is kidnapped, raped repeatedly including incestually, prostituted, murdered, abused and cannibalised.

[bigsistergeneral]

male worshipping women piss me off

[bigsistergeneral]

Women going to bat for males who hate them and would never have their backs 😒

[bigsistergeneral]

The state of things

[lettucefem]

i know it's not even close to the most misogynistic thing she's said but i personally can't believe EC sat down and typed out:

i’m sure some of you will take that and run with it as an admittance that i hate or have no need/respect for “biological women” at all now but that’s a sacrifice i’m willing to make for my point. 

i mean i can, but as a musician whose fanbase is overwhelmingly female? are you kidding me? how do women ("biological women") brainwash themselves into going to bat so hard for them when EC and other TIMs will publicly, without so much as a hint of shame, admit exactly how they feel about us? not even admit, offer it up bold and plain as day. EC doesn't care about you!! she can make as much "abused sad girl music" as she wants but she will NEVER have your back the way you have hers

I didn't even see that bit, it's again just 🤢
