Reminder to multigender people (and trans people in general, but this came up on the multigender survey so I'm addressing multigender people in particular) that you can't "transition to become intersex." You can absolutely transition to have mixed sex characteristics, or both a penis and a vagina, or whatever other transition is best for you, but if you're not intersex you shouldn't refer to yourself that way. Intersex people have repeatedly explained that it's inaccurate and offensive to claim you're "transitioning to intersex," don't do that.

[dhakcjshkvjbd]

it’s offensive to think you can become intersex but not offensive to think you can become female? why?

[dhakcjshkvjbd]

hmmmmmm

"A social and medical category of ppl facing specific discrimination since birth" 🤔 Well I wouldn't know nothing 'bout that. Obvsly.

[an-awkward-tangerine]

"Intersex people face so much discrimination from the moment they are born, doctors mutilating their genitals, parents forcing them down one gender path, etc. that it would be offensive to call yourself intersex when you have faced none of that discrimination"

Unlike women who aren't discriminates since birth, aren't mutilates because of their sex, aren't forced down one gender path... wait.

If sex is a spectrum and one can transition to female even if they were not born that way, why can't they transition to intersex even if they're not born that way ? Because of oppression ? Are you saying female people are not oppressed ?

You can't be body positive if you don't like bodies

saw that post where the op is like “i don’t give a fuck if the word queer upsets you, i HOPE my identity upsets you” and hundreds of ppl in the notes are rbing and tagging it with “queer as in fuck you” and it struck me that this phrase used to be gay people saying fuck you to straights who called them queer to hurt them and it’s now straight people saying fuck you to gay people who are hurt by the word queer. “queer as in fuck you” has been successfully reclaimed by the straight community

What did they do to be expelled from the friend group though I wanna hear what the friend group has to say

[iwanttolisten]

I think these tags are important.

When I was with transfeminist circles I saw these posts all the time and it was a super effective guilting tactic. I kept several MTFs in my mutual circles way too long after they started going on aggressive screeds against "TME"s (which I wasn't even against at the time due to said transfeminist conditioning), doing kink shit I'd normally block people over on-sight, and making comments like "I don't agree with ISFF but the construction of the pedophile is used to oppress us"... because I was afraid I'd look like a transmisogynist excising them from my social circles. So, with the other transbians on the site, they continued to get worse in ways none of my other mutuals did and my dash became insufferable lol.

I am reminded of the minority tolerance phenomenon. As a trend, people become less bigoted towards a minority group the more they interact with members of said group inter-personally. This isn't to say minorities will have no problems in non-minority friend groups, but that as a trend they become more liked the more familiar a majority gets to them, because it becomes clear they are just normal people with harmless differences like everyone else.

This makes this whole thing a real outlier. Trans women getting in social groups *while* already out as trans women (so there's no "coming out as gay and being kicked out of a friend group" bias happening), becoming friends with the people there, and then being expelled again and again, well... That's not really typical?

If the problem is "trans women are seen as gross and weird and everyone is always looking for a socially acceptable reason to call them gross and weird", why is this superficial barrier of "difference", being perceived as "gross and weird", not diminishing as the MTF befriends the circle, and prolonged interaction makes people see that he's actually pretty normal? That's generally how it is for gay people.

Human females urgently have to unite to kill aggressive males like the female bonobos do, it's a behavior for betterment of societies that humans missed and should get back

If you can respect a religious woman not wanting to do X around male people because her religion tells her to but you can’t respect a woman who doesn’t want to do X around male people of her own free will you respect religious misogyny more than women

[lettucefem]

Nun: I want to live with only women and no men because of my dedication to virginity and Jesus, to never get married or have kids and live on (basically) a commune

Men: yeah okay

Radfem: I want to live on a commune with only women and no men and to never marry or have children to dedicate myself to loving and supporting other women

Men: you insane misandrist bitch this is literally the holocaust

[lettucefem]

Muslim woman: I don’t want to exercise around any male people, including transwomen, to be modest because my religion tells me to (and because it makes me more comfortable)

Liberals: yeah okay

Other woman: I don’t want to exercise around male people because I feel better in a female only space

Liberals: why is this literally racism

[kiefbowl]

men who identify as women are never like…gender envy!!!

it's so funny when queers are like queer is anti-capitalist and then you look at their blog and they're like here are all the beautiful things mass manufactured in china you need to buy to be yourself. and all the surgery you need. and sex work is work. hm. okay.

[gnomebutch]

is this supposed to make me support sex work. this further proves that the industry preys on desperate and vulnerable people. the answer to this issue is getting better support networks and welfare systems put in place, not enabling prostitution.

[gendiebrainrotreceipts]

I have a theory…

[friendlyfreakazoid]

It’s so funny how TIMs desperately want to appropriate every single possible female experience right down to hating men, but they can’t actually hate men for real because real misandry hits a little too close to home for them, so instead they make a big deal about hating TIFs and mocking “transandrobros” and calling themselves proud misandrists because of it. And it’s like bro you are just being a normal misogynistic man 😭😭😭

[cunning-pope]

JK Rowling is amazing because six years ago she deliberately torpedoed her reputation, she knew full well that what she would day would get her cancelled and she went for it anyway. And her charities are just as generous, her taxes are proportional to her income, she’s writing at the top of her form and in short seems to be a wonderfully balanced and grounded woman. I’m not a fan of all her twitter tweets but who’s perfect?

The hatedom paints her as hysterical, shrill, vicious and cruel, physically nasty and the list goes on. And it’s all a lie. Her art is dragged through slime and she keeps writing.

It makes me think of her early fame and the rest of Pottermania, like she must have been surrounded by lackeys and ass kissers and at some point she knew, this is all temporary. They’ll be cheering for my execution tomorrow if the winds change. And she was right.

She’s nothing short of heroic and I love her.

my beautiful transgender women you must kill anyone who's "concerned" about you getting complications from bottom surgery. do your own research and make your own informed decision. your body is yours!!!!!!!!!! it's yours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[river-grunfeld]

As someone who has had bottom surgery I'm telling all of you not to get it.

What's going to happen when you don't listen to victims and convince people to "do their own research" is they are just going to google and find medical pages made by the same people who want to mutilate them for profit.

Until we force medical providers to track and be honest about surgery and detransition, informed consent for "gender affirming care" basically doesn't exist. The major reviews done have found no evidence of tracking long term care by the same providers that need to have that data before recommending aesthetic unessential surgery.

[river-grunfeld]

Here's the other thing. You should not be getting surgery to deal with mental distress. Mental issues should be fixed with therapy, both ACT and DBT are effective at treating dysphoria. But the trans community is so committed to a quick fix they are willing to accept mutilation if it will bury the problem. Those issues are still under the surface and now you are permenantly mutilated.

[river-grunfeld]

Exactly. On top of that these are the people willing to talk about their complications. Tons end up permanently smelling like poop or in chronic pain and thanks to posts like this almost never speak up. These surgeries have a 60-70% complication rate for mtf and higher for ftm.

[aftonfamilyvalues]

my favorite type of post right now is people talking about purity culture but their idea of purity culture is like "someone who isnt okay with every fetish/kink" so instead of discussing the actual impact of purity culture you just get a bunch of people screaming facist because you said you dont think someone who indulges in pedophilic fantasies should be a middle school math teacher.

banning trans women from the olympics is bad because they’re banning trans women from the olympics. full stop. really nothing else needs to be added to this sentence. it’s discriminatory and wrong to ban trans women from the olympics, and it would be regardless of how this might effect some cis women. why is every post about this focused on the cis women, instead of how alarmingly transmisogynistic this is?

[doingitatmybirthdaydinner]

trans women were not banned from the olympics. all males were banned from the female category. trans women are still absolutely welcome to compete in the male category, the category in line with their sex. this is how every athlete who wishes to compete in the olympics will be treated, regardless of identity or trans status.

they have not been wrongfully discriminated against and banned for their internal identity. the olypmics possess no mind-reading machines that can test for internal trans identity. they have been banned from the female category, on the basis of their maleness, which is easily testable, measurable, and tangible with a cheek swab.
