the positioning of transfem hypervisibility and transmasc invisibility as two opposing forces is so insidious and dangerous because it reinforces the status quo where trans men's voices are already valued over trans women's

trans women can never speak because we're already apparently soaking up all the attention... nevermind that the "attention" is fearmongering government propaganda

trans women can take up no space, because any amount of attention is further proof that we hog the spotlight from trans men. our visibility is thought of as coming at the cost of that of trans men. so if a trans man speaks over us or silences us, he's just seen as balancing the scales. but our visibility and theirs are not actually opposing forces. a decrease in visibility for trans women is not an increase for trans men. it's just a decrease

it's not even that jkr isn't a general transphobe as well, obviously she is, but the frequency with which a trans woman talking about transmisogyny and how it harms transfems and using that specific language to describe that specific phenomenon is immediately translated to "transphobia" and "trans people" when it reaches a wider audience is like. idk you can't stop noticing it once you do. why are you so uncomfortable with the idea of talking about women and centering them in the conversations that they start
