"Trans men are harassed when they get mistaken for trans women. If they just explain that they don't identify as trans women and prove they are afab the harassment will stop" is fucking ridiculous on the surface but in case you actually believe that bullshit:

I was sexually harassed after I explained to my harasser over and over again that I'm a trans man and explaining in detail what it was. I told him I was born with a vagina but was actually a boy. So he grabbed my crotch to see if I was lying

He decided to just check for himself whether I'm afab

So no actually telling someone your a trans man does not protect you, it does the opposite.

Cute story though

Faux-transfeminism hits a new strange low in comparing transmascs pointing out our historical and ongoing erasure to flat earthers. Level with me here. Do you really want to make the argument that a minority’s oppression is a conspiracy theory. Are we really doing this

Hey so if I decided to say, "I'm homophobia affected because I'm a lesbian. These bisexual people are homophobia exempt." And then started saying stuff about "we should murder all homophobia exempt people!" While very clearly talking about bisexuals, that would be bad and detestable, right?

Then when bisexuals spoke up and were like "hey we actually do experience homophobia because we are often perceived as queer. Also I'm really uncomfortable with how I'm being treated in my own community" but I responded by spouting statistics about corrective rape and violence against lesbians (despite the fact they never denied the suffering of lesbians), while ignoring their actual objection, we could agree that would be a horrible and biphobic thing to do?

Cool, then can we stop doing it to trans men?

THE NEEDS AND DESIRES OF WHICH MEN, YOU STUPID ASSHOLE???? CISGENDER MEN!!!!!

I literally gasped i truly cannot believe there's people who fail to comprehend reality this badly, and then in the same post act so patronising and like trans men are the ones not understanding social theory because they can see this simplistic bullshit is just plain wrong and not true

X “trans men MUST have male privilege because cis men have male privilege. If you say trans men DON’T have male privilege then you must not see trans men as real men!”

-defines manhood through a cissexist framework and tries to force trans men’s experiences to fit within that framework. denies the manhood of any trans man whose experiences cannot be easily mapped onto cis men.

✓ “trans men ARE real men, but they are not granted systemic access to male privilege, and whatever benefits individual trans men ARE able to access are limited and highly conditional. We should expand our understanding of men/masculinity to better account for their unique experiences.”

-acknowledges trans men as men first and foremost. accounts for the material reality of trans men’s experiences and expands our understanding of manhood accordingly.

No, you see you ARE oppressed as transmasc — you face transphobia, but as a man, so there is no intersection with misogyny, silly gi- i mean little boy. The fact that they still prioritize a hypothetical child you may birth in the future when making all your medical decisions, regardless of if you want pregnancy, is unrelated.

[ugh-hes-fabulous]

Ok I’ll be the one to say it. Some of you don’t think anyone born with a vagina has the interiority or awareness of self to be a “real” tranny or discuss or opine or theorize about their own experiences with oppression. and its making you stupid

[trilobite-memorial]

transmascs : hey so our lives are closely tied to women's rights, we are affected by legislature restricting reproductive rights, and we would not be able to express ourselves at all if it wasn't for the work of feminists in the last two centuries and -

TRFs : transmen need to shut THE FUCK UP about feminism it's not about YOU birthday boy, check your privilege #bombthatkillsallTMEs #transfeminism

scientists have recently announced that exoplanet HR 3499a is no longer believed to be potentially capable of supporting life, after new spectroscopic readings indicated that it doesn't even have a dishwasher. "i mean, it doesn't even have a fucking dishwasher," said the lead researcher. "I guess you could live there, but, like, would you really want to?"
