I'm tired of pretending it's not literally fucking fine to read a character as transfem because they are feminine. why are transfem headcanons the only ones that require a burden of proof to you? don't worry, you don't have to tell me. I already know why.

Forget all the other stuff - this is definitely the weirdest thing nyamu has done

[usamirenko]

Its been a few months since ave mujica ended and i'm going to be honest this is still probably the weirdest thing she did.

[honyuknocken]

Do you think Minami knew about this? Do Mutsumi and Mortis know she did this?

actually i kind of dont care how anatomically identical post-op women are to cisfems i do not see how any of that is even slightly relevant to any values I consider worth appealing to

[maidthings]

when terves call a trans woman's neovagina a wound they are calling trans women an unnatural aberration, and by extension reifying medical ideas around biological sex (and the grotesque practices used to enforce them on unconsenting infants, which terves seem to fail to object to). It is simply not effective to argue that the results of the surgery are adequately similar to a "biological womans" "natural" state of affairs.

much has been said already about the supreme court case and trans rights but today i'm thinking extra hard about trans kids who have been sent into the psych system for any reason, who have to bear the lack of autonomy innate to it but the extra sting of being denied the right to your name and your gender in sex-segregated facilities, by transphobic staff, etc.

i'm thinking extra hard about how we've ended up where we are, with trans kids at the center of so much hatred, because children are not seen as people with interiority or an ability to narrate their own experiences. we've decided it's alright to lock children up for horrible diagnoses that psychs throw around like they're nothing, to strip their autonomy completely and force them through humiliation, invasions of privacy, and endless torment by "professionals" whose power over every waking moment of their lives has no end. these things cannot be separated.

i'm thinking today of every trans child in a wilderness camp, in a residential treatment facility, in psych wards and PHP/IOP programs, especially those whose transness has been tied to unwellness. fuck the psych industry and the troubled teen industry and transphobia forever

The Professor of Queer and Transgender Studies at Emory University released a talk on how "trans lesbians are crossdressing men"

He's a trans man by the way

Really wish you guys could have our backs or at least stop going after us. During fucking pride too. Genuinely fuck you. I wish this shit surprised me anymore but it doesn't

[dollwhojoinedtheartifice]

"We are all enemies in the eyes of the state", only some are literal leaders in academic fields of gender studies and uses their position to openly harm the women of their own community with no consequences.

"Trans women get all the visibility" but it's 16,913 newspaper articles in the UK mainly demonising trans women, while some trans men have enough institutional power to get on a stage and spout utter bullshit about trans women that is not historically or factually correct.

And of course trans men have it hard right now, any kind of trans person has it hard in the UK right now. But this is yet another example of the differences in structural power between trans men and trans women, and a good example of how a trans men can oppress trans women

[tamamoland-of-destinys-demise]

was this the same one that used the phrase "transitioning into faggots" for us or is this a new one

This is in his biography on the faculty page for the Emory GWSS department.

The argument that trans WOMEN shouldn’t call themselves women. That we don’t get to call ourselves or be called women is frightening.

The last line cut off from the screenshot is “trans women and femmes of color.”

[thelongestrose]

let's take a look at that "materialism" that's going to smash the "middle-class transgender hegemony" in solidarity with trans women of color, shall we?

well that's not a great start. someone should probably tell Sylvia Rivera nobody was arguing she wasn't gay, for one. also since when were gay people and transgender people thought of as the same? does Amin believe that because it was somewhat fluid and the communities overlapped that means the distinction was nonexistent?

"transmisogynist violence is a consequence of homophobia" is as much a dangerously incorrect and transmisic take as his belief that heterosexuality was invented sometime after gender deviance (?) as if those things are unrelated and not co-constitutive. also could he please stop dropping transmisogynist slurs at the drop of a hat?

and there it is, he's an unironic transgender is taking all our beautiful butches and queens guy. also he seems to think that there was some prelapsarian past where gayness was focused around gender deviance and then gays invented trans people in 1989 to be respectable. needless to say, our conmunities have always been interrelated but distinct. one might even say there are material differences that are in part described by the terminology he's crusading against, that a "materialist" should pick up on.

and the hat trick. it's not transgressive to transition. trans women are taking all our feminine gay men! they're all gone. and it's also trans women's fault that gay men aren't interested in the ones that are left. this is because trans people invented a fake binary and for no other discernable reason. y'all, this is the analysis you end up doing if you think transmisogyny isn't real and read every historical document at face value with no critical lens. this man watched Paris is Burning ten years ago (skipped How Do I Look, naturally) and he's going to make it our problem

oh and that was all somehow from one shockingly terrible essay. pulling just a few things from it was not easy, because there's a lot! love my field, love my colleagues
