i've been ignoring these confession blogs, since they're the most trite bullshit imaginable, but i can't help but notice the strange dynamic occuring between tmasc-confessions and tfem-confessions

make no mistake, these blogs are both part of the transandrophobia community. tfem-confessions is just trying to take a softer approach. i imagine it's being done to pave over the damage i did when i revealed that transandrophobia is a transmisogynistic detransition ring being run by terfs.

now this i thought was interesting. i had assumed that tmasc-confessions was inspired to create this blog because they saw the trans/misogyny created by that "honest opinion" game, but tmasc-confessions says it was inspired by jewish-vents.

who is jewish-vents?

oh, i see! thanks for clearing up my misconception!

[tmasc-confessions]

I should clarify very openly right now; I am NOT a zionist. I believe in a free Palestine and so does 🪼. But there aren't many spaces online where one can freely discuss the struggles they experience with being Jewish without running the risk of being harassed, so JV has been a sort of safespace for me these past few months. I just have the "israel" tag muted so I don't have to see those posts.

Do not accuse me of being a zionist and for goodness' sake do not accuse me of being a fucking nazi.

[eternalpeacenosuffering]

Me when I'm an insane internet reactionary and I say I'm inspired by a zionazi blog and people say I'm a zionazi.

we have to start ridiculing climbing mount everest the way we've ridiculed diving to the titanic there's no reason to be dying up there why dont you do a nice normal sport

[work-avoidance-zone]

Shitty take. Diving to the Titanic shouldn’t be ridiculed either as long as you have proper safety measures in place, and on the submarine. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

[deanwinchesterapologist]

Okay. Have fun down there. Say hi to those other guys for us

[bizarrequazar]

In all seriousness though, Mount Everest is sacred to the Sherpa people who act as guides because of religious obligation, yet they have no official say over what is done with the mountain that has become covered in litter and corpses because of the tourism industry. These people repeatedly risk their lives because of the tourists and receive barely any recognition or respect for it, in fact just earlier this year a climber whose life was saved by his Sherpa guide blocked the guide on Instagram afterwards. We should absolutely be shaming people climbing Mount Everest.

[inclus-cringe-comp]

1. Not the criteria

2. If you’re LGBT you can’t just choose to not be, we aren’t a club

[inclus-cringe-comp]

Okay let’s be honest, I think that we all know that the epitome of western society’s ideal cishet family can basically be summed up with vintage 1950 advertisements

The idea that the LGBT community is meant to encompass anyone who falls outside “society’s norms” is just silly because it would include so many people who just straight up don’t belong.

[acepalindrome]

Ace spectrum Astarion is so so good. I just love him getting to redefine his whole relationship with sex and have the freedom to discover what he actually wants, and deciding that he only wants it occasionally, or only in certain circumstances, or maybe not at all, and that it’s okay! It’s fine! He’s under no obligation to continue being the hypersexual figure he was forced to present himself as!

[geekdamien]

you're describing a normal person.

[geekdamien]

damn no way. I can't believe this. lol

[girlswamparchived2017]

@ all girls coming to terms w not being straight: i love u, i am proud of u, there is nothing gross or wrong about liking/loving other girls and u are brave and valid and good

Aceys:

[the-french-guy-who-loves-you]

I mean… I really want to simpathise but… girl swamp sa that they just said that “ it’s okay for girls to like girls “ and an ace people reacted to that… But that’s not what the original post say. The original post say ” all girls coming to terms w not being straight […] liking/loving other girls “. Maybe that’s not what girlswamp wanted to say, but they say that EVERY girl who IS’NT straight LOVE GIRL. And some asexual and aromantic people love girl, some don’t. And the original post say something about those who don’t, it makes an assumption, willingly or not. That is erasure. That’s not a word that was invented for “aceys”. I have seen a lot of gay people fighting against erasure. When a boy say “I am in love” and receive as an answer “Who is she”… This boy receive a message. Maybe the message isn’t said out loud but it is always understood. And fopr some people it hurt. The original post had a similar message. It is not surprising that people got hurt. The original message talked about Every girl who are not straight. So either it was saying that people on the ace spectrum all love girl, or that some are straight. It was talking about ace and aro people from the start.

[geekdamien]

lmao

[queerquest]

at least a good 90% of the people who use “tunglr” as a slang for tumblr in their text posts are aphobes so maybe think twice before reblogging a post with that word in it

[benepla-deactivated20180521]

[energyswordsunday]

can you stop being fucking ableist with your insinuations that every ace inclusionist is “jobless” and “has too much free time” like grow up.

You heard it here guys, I'm leaving. Well, I would, but I also don't exist. I am an AFAB autistic person with ADHD who is trans masc/nonbinary and bi, and ace. Everyone knows those don't exist, so I can't leave because I am nonexistent. To further prove this, my name is Phoenix. I have Hunter's haircut. I have trauma. I'm a character from a tv show now, definitely an animated one.

Saw on many ppls bios on twt 'lesbian/gay/bisexual aroace' and I'm kinda confused bc I thought aroace meant no romantic+sexual attraction? I'm just asking if you know what it might refer to, if not have a nice day!

You seem nice, so I'm not gonna yell at you for dragging this dead horse into my ask box, but I will say... if anyone else wants to send me asks on the topic, to argue with me OR to agree with me, I want proof of purchase for something off of my wishlist. Otherwise, asks will get deleted. Again, not mad you personally anon, but... to any stragglers, we're not doin this.

There are two reasons why people think you can be gay/straight/bi AND aroace.

One, they think asexuality and aromanticism can be spectrums. So, if you experience "less" romantic and sexual attraction than everyone else, you are aroace-spec. And hten to clarify who that "less" amount of attraction is aimed at, you say you are gay/bi/straight aroace.

This is stupid because no other sexuality is a spectrum. If you are primarily attracted to men as a men but sometimes women do it for ya, you're bisexual, not gay-spec. Also, the notion that you are experiencing "less" attraction than everyone else is ridiculous because there is no codified "average" amount of attraction. Nor is there any complementary identity for people who experience "more" attraction.

Because amount of attraction is frankly irrelevant. Unless the amount is TRULY zero and you understand that not experiencing romantic attraction means not wanting to date and not experiencing sexual attraction means not wanting to fuck.

The second reason, which is also wrong, is thinking that "other" types of attraction exist and are included in gayness, biness, straightness. Like you can not want to date or fuck women as a women but you're an aroace lesbian if you want a woman as a best friend or roommate. Call it a QPR, despite nothing about wanting to live with a woman being queer, and BAM you are an aroace lesbian.

Lifelong commitments to your friends is not queer, is not gay or bi or straight, it has noting to do with orientation at all.

These sorts thinking want to be friends with someone is a form of attraction ("platonic attraction"). These people are very removed from reality.

And, again, I will not be arguing with anyone about this OR platforming people who want to use this as a launching point for their own discourse rants. I'm just answering this because anon seems nice nad genuinely curious.

Anyone else who wants to use my askbox as a soapbox, buy me something first. Chain-gang All-Stars is on sale right now

[beaky-peartree]

telling gay people to give straight sex a shot is the farthest thing from progressive. what year is it.

[animeseinfeld]

when youre so online you conflate "maybe rigid gender essentialism is bad" with "lesbians should be forced to have sex with straight men"

[beaky-peartree]

FELLAS IS IT RIGID GENDER ESSENTIALISM TO SAY GAY PEOPLE ARE GAY

[frozenoverknight]

its dumb how bad the lesbiphobia and biphobia is when you guys bring up bi lesbians

[frozenoverknight]

you hate lesbians cause you want rewrite what the word lesbian means completely. you hate bisexuals cause you’re too afraid to identify as bisexual, furthering biphobia.

[genderqueerdykes]

neither testosterone nor estrogen are inherently "bad" or "good". they're hormones that exist in every human, and need to exist in a balance specific to that person's body. i guess i find it kinda funny that the current terf rhetoric is that testosterone is evil and bad and will make you miserable all the time.

that was my experience, as an intersex person, when i was placed on estrogen for a few years. that doesn't make estrogen bad. that just means that for me, having that much estrogen in my system made me miserable, exacerbated the negative symptoms of my intersex condition, and in general changed things about myself and my body that i didn't like. that doesn't mean estrogen will make everyone miserable. just me, at that high of a concentration. i still need it, though. just nowhere near that much.

there is no catch-all blanket "this hormone is good or bad". they're just chemicals that exist in our bodies and are required for certain levels of functioning. you can't place moral value on a hormone.

[pitbolshevik]

they're so close and yet

"it's only the right wing media that's giving gender critical people a platform"

hmm. i wonder why. truly a mystery. we just dont know.
