I'm so tired of trying to reach out to other lesbians, and tras interject asking if trans women are included, and I can't say no because I could risk being banned for "transphobia." I miss when homosexual females could just be ourselves, now we can only exist if it includes trans women, otherwise we're just as bad as straight homophobes.
OP:
This is tagged with tw terfs and transphobia despite. The argument of the other person being perfectly reasonable, apart from some terms. "Mutilate" is too harsh. You can’t use that term without aneliating your target audience.( I've had my mom call it mutilation to get my tubes tied.)
"Your [female] body is [beautiful]" => your body is fine the way it is.
"Even if you're masculine" i hate being called masculine when I don't perform beauty standards. But Ig in this context it is to make a distinction. Or "even if you're not feminine" "even if you don't like feminity" "even if feminity isn’t for you"
Also OP:
TLRD:
OP: "I didn't transition to escape womanhood"
Also OP: now that I am a man, I can do all the things I couldn't as a woman, like wearing a white shirt, running, be shirtless at the beach. I became a man "after decades of being forced into a feminine archetype that don't feel right for me!"
Radfem: But you don't have to be a man to do all those things— plenty of women don't fit that archetype— feminity and masculinity are just gender stereotypes—
OP: TERF!!!!! TW TERF!!!!! TRANSPHOBE!!!
Just imagine being offended by the fact that only women have a uterus and get periods
cant even go to the lesbian tag on anything unless you want to experience critical hit psychic damage
"If you are female, expressing hatred for your own body is not just acceptable, it’s practically de rigeur. Failure to indulge in the requisite amount of self-flagellation – my thighs! my skin! my face! – isn’t just negligent, it’s unfeminine. Self-hatred is fundamental to how femininity is constructed, more fundamental than any of the more obvious external symbols (dress, make-up, shoes). What matters is not that you are beautiful, but you know your place in the beauty hierarchy (and since every woman ages, every woman’s place will eventually be somewhere at the bottom).
Young women are encouraged to bond over their dislike of excess body hair, surplus flesh and “uneven” skin. They are meant to do so in a jovial way, egged on by perky adverts informing them what “real women” do: worry about having underarms beautiful enough for a sleeveless top, celebrate curves with apologetic booty shakes and cackle ruefully over miserable Sex-and-the-City-style lunches of Ryvita and Dulcolax. It’s a gendered ritual; men get football and booze, women get control pants and detoxes. We are supposed, of course, to be grateful. Hey, you don’t have to be perfect! Just know you’re not perfect and act accordingly, with the appropriate levels of guilt and shame!
Fairy tale after fairy tale tells us that what matters is being beautiful “on the inside” but what does that really mean? It means submission, obedience and the suppression of one’s own desires. Don’t be haughty and proud. Clean the hearth. Kiss the frog. Love the beast. Suck it up when you’re replaced by a younger model. Sure, you may look fine, but you mustn’t feel fine. You mustn’t be vain. You mustn’t be angry. All fury and pain must be turned back on itself. That way you’ll be a real princess: silent, fragile and never threatening to challenge the status quo."
– Victoria Smith, Almost Famous, real women and the normalisation of self-hate
I'm gonna save my house spider, I'll take the fine.
kind of obsessed with the way all of the context has to be stripped off for tras to effectively hate on rowling. "assaulted a trans woman by taking an upskirt photo" and it's a man at a public event where filming is agreed upon beforehand exposing himself by not taking into consideration the length of his skirt as he raises his leg. there was no crawling into the bathroom to secretly record the female penis the man in question bragged about. he was exposing himself indecently, and she simply didn't stop recording.
This is the picture by the way, for anyone that hasn't seen it.
He not only knew going into the event that cameras would be there, he knew he would be one of the main speakers. He knew eyes would be on him. Knowing that, he wore that skirt and then crossed his legs in a way that exposed his underwear to the audience. He also held that position for long enough for someone to get a good picture.
He wasn't "assaulted" by having this picture taken, this is proof that he's a sex pest dragging the general public into his fetish.
I get self conscious wearing a dress, I'm always careful how I sit when I have one on. I can't imagine going to a public debate, being a speaker dressed like this. Also public figure trans woman (India Willoughby) posted this exact image, protesting it when the actual event happened, but now that JK Rowling shared it, suddenly she's a horrible person for doing the same thing.
I'm sad because pest control is coming to my complex in the morning, and management said if they aren't allowed in, I have to pay a fine for them to come again. I have a house spider that hangs in my living room taking care of some of the bugs that come in, they are going to kill it.
liz truss wears a normal necklace one time and the trans community spends weeks calling it a bdsm collar because that’s so funny
one random guy wears a skirt one time and the trans community cries that everyone who saw it is guilty of sexual assault
like i know the double standard is the point but they could be a little more subtle about it
The tide is turning 🖤
Genuinely why are people like this allowed to reproduce?
we gotta start bullying ppl who say shit like this about children. lady shut the fuck up your self hatred is contagious
Wasn't there a study that showed people tend to take male baby cries as being more serious (that the baby is in more discomfort) as compared to female baby cries? It makes sense that these people would then consider female babies crying as being "Tantrums" more and think that the BABIES are being dramatic for no reason.
This is so ridiculously prevalent my extended family keeps commenting on how much easier my nephew is compared to me and my sister even though my parents have been very clear that they've never seen a baby as stubborn and prone to tantrums as this one. He's a boy, so he's actually just active. If he was a girl he would be deemed dramatic in a second.
One day, this little girl is going to grow up hating herself for being born female. She will let others walk all over her in hopes that if she is "good and nice enough," people won't see her as a crazy hysterical woman. Every time a man treats her like her feelings don't matter and tells her that she is overreacting at being mistreated, she will believe it.
Girls like that won't be allowed to show their emotions at home without being treated as hysterical growing up. someone who can easily be ridiculed, the butt of the joke. The family clowns. Don't get me started on puberty. Her brothers will be punching holes in walls, but God forbid a female child shows any mood swings.
Meanwhile, her brothers are going to grow up not worried about that. Every time they throw a tantrum as children, they won't be told it's because they are males and males are crazy hysterical burdens to others. They are just kids having tantrums.
Little boys are kids first and boys second, Little girls are just women to be, potential burdens for the "poor men who will have to deal with them."
Gee it sure is a mystery why this lesbian didn’t want to be friends with someone who deluded himself into thinking he has a chance with a homosexual woman and then writes a psychotic rant on Reddit about being “led on for two years” for being “an ugly disgusting dick haver that could never be with a pure feminine divine soul like her” ………
And THIS is why it’s important that we stress that lesbians categorically don’t like dick. This is why we cannot accept the imposition that we just so happen to have an unrelated “genital preference” that should be kept to ourselves in fear of hurting a man’s feelings. And yet a lesbian doing that didn’t spare this man. It appears to have made it worse!
I've noticed that some "transbians" are more vindictive and/or aggressive toward lesbians who politely say they don't date trans women than some "straight" trans women are toward men who aggressively reject dating them.
And fuck it, since I'm already controversial, and we're already on the subject of men of color using racism to deny their role in misogyny--every town is a sundown town for a woman. There is no town on earth where a woman is free, safe, and never at risk of stalking, harassment and death at night. Hell, most cities aren't even totally safe in the day for a woman. Even the whitest women I know hesitate to leave their houses at night, pump their own gas at night, walk alone at night if they can avoid it--anywhere.
Women are too divided and exclusionary toward each other for a women only movement to truly succeed. I’m not saying I’m perfect, but the way women will exclude other women for being sex workers, mothers, heterosexual, having different opinions, or not being radical enough creates a problem. If the goal is to build a movement for women, it has to include all women.
Men’s misogynistic movements (and I’m not saying this to praise them) often appear stronger because they don’t usually exclude other men from joining. Even when they disagree, they tend to keep them within the movement and place them into different categories rather than removing them entirely. They understand that collective power requires having more people involved. These groups aren’t free of internal conflicts either; they still divide over things like ideology, race, religion, class, leadership, and tactics. However, they often prioritize a shared goal over their differences, which can make them appear more unified.
I feel like if women could do the same and build around a common goal instead of constantly excluding each other, movements like “I hate men” or women centered movements would have a stronger chance of succeeding. A movement that excludes too many potential supporters will struggle to gain enough power to create large scale change. The broader the coalition, the more disagreement it will have to accept, while smaller movements may be more consistent ideologically but will also have less reach.
Women get exlcuded from feminism for being heterosexual, lol? I sort of need you to expand on this.
Even aside from that this is a flawed mindset. Liberal feminism perfectly demonstrates why inclusivity isn’t always good, bad feminists defang feminism.
Why do you Hate trans people so much? and I know you focus on Trans woman but like you hate all of us.
Why? and before you go into some insane "uerm its SEXIST to be transgener because blah blah blahugh" Tell me how us Existing hurts you or anyone else? -Green Haired Freak who wants the world to get better and stop getting worse.
criticism isn't hate. hating people's actions, words, assertions, and behaviors does not equate to blind hatred towards a whole group of people. I don't hate trans people as a group, and especially not trans men. but the contents of my criticisms for transgender ideology can be found on my blog. that's like.. the point of my blog. so feel free to read up, and if you disagree with any of the claims I make in my posts, please reblog it with a rebuttal or refutation. the ways that transgender ideology affects my life can also be found on my blog, one good example is my recent post about what is and isn't considered conversion therapy, so feel free to check that out. but something does not have to affect someone's life for them to be able to criticize it, and establishing exactly how much or how badly it affects their life does nothing to refute their criticisms. my entire blog could be about a rare invasive species of frogs in northern tibet, and my opinions on them. establishing how the frogs do or do not affect my life, or why I care so much about frogs would do nothing to refute my opinions on them. by that same logic I could ask you why terfs existing hurts you or anyone else. but I'm not, because it doesn't matter. you are allowed to disagree with us and refute our arguments, regardless of how your personal life is affected. so now I'd like that, go on my blog, and reblog a post you disagree with, and refute it with a strong argument. go ahead
I have read you blog, That's why I sent the ask. and your blog does not answer as many questions as you believe it does. Terfs being terfs hurts trans people like me because terfs don't want trans people to exist in public. you seem to be convinced its some sex thing instead of just being true to ourselves. You aren't 'disagreeing' with us, that's like saying you 'disagree' with gay people existing. Yes you are allowed to have an opinion on things that do not affect you, however it's clearly a personal issue for you. You claim not to hate us but you cheer for our deaths, you cheer for jkr to kill us, because gender affirming care is life-saving. You said "I don't hate trans people as a group, and especially not trans men." but you clearly do [if you disagree with that then I have to ask why you spend so much time spreading hate about trans folk] , and even if that statement is true, [as you believe it to be], what is the difference between a trans man and a trans woman to you? [like obviously they are going in different directions but it's the same concept] I have been commenting on your blog I will start doing reblog responses in the future [I will try to remember to tag it so my mutuals can avoid the conversation if they wish] And you are going to hate this but I feel the need to say it feel free to ignore it [we both know you won't]: You deserve to live a life of joy and it saddens me that you're robbing yourself of it by hating people who have done nothing to you. as someone with MAJOR anger issues I get it, it feels great to fight, but there are good fights to fight and hating your fellow Queers [sorry not sorry i know you hate the term but its the shortest] and spreading misogyny and bioessentialism is not it.
I know I won't convince you[I'd love to be wrong about this] but hopefully someone who sees you blog in passing will know that the world is not hopeless
clearly you haven't done a close reading, because I've said multiple times I believe strongly in american freedom, and believe in the rights of all american adults to dress how they like, change their name, purchase whatever surgeries and hormones they'd like, and exist in public. I have never cheered for anyone's death, if you read my blog you'd see I take an unpopular stance against violence even towards politicians, bigots, bad people etc. so I certainly have never supported violence or death of trans people. Jkr is not taking away the right of adults to purchase hormones and surgeries. And people killing themselves because they could not get hormones and surgeries to alter their appearance is not exactly someone else killing them anyway. If you don't want to die in that instance, just don't kill yourself. The difference between trans man and trans women is that trans men are often chill and understanding while trans women are often forcing themselves into lesbian spaces and forcing women to alter their language, and threatening to kill all terfs. that's why it's a personal issue for me. I believe males can't be lesbians, and that belief is apparently quite controversial these days. if someone reads the contents of my blog and thinks that my responses to the people in the screenshots I post make the world hopeless, and not the people in the screenshots themselves then I feel sorry for their incredibly skewed world view. besides that, it is up to everyone to manage their own feelings about words they read on tumblr. if someone reads my blog and feels so absolutely hopeless because there are lesbian women out there who believe lesbians and women are female, they are literally on tumblr. they can very easily with zero effort find trans-affirmative content. so don't worry about them too much.
I'm getting the vibe that you're like 15, so let me give me some unsolicited advice: words can't hurt you. remember about how sticks and stones can't break your bones? and your emotions are totally fine and valid, but they are your responsibility. it is no one else's responsibility to validate them, or to censor themselves for your delicate sensitivities. so we can stop acting like my tumblr blog is some nuclear radioactive bomb that needs a trigger warning on it. these are words. they can't hurt anyone. but really, if you're young, get off tumblr. go play roblox skibidi toilet 67 or whatever and stop endlessly ruminating over discourse and your own identity and labels and pronouns and sexuality. just live and be yourself and don't think about yourself that much
Damn yeah, You ain't even going to try to understand. you replied within a minute. I'm going to come back and edit out anything i think is to harsh for you to handle so uh.. yeah it might be a VERY short reply heads up 👎 You do not care. You're to busy hating us. "The difference between trans man and trans women is that trans men are often chill and understanding while trans women are often forcing themselves into lesbian spaces and forcing women to alter their language, and threatening to kill all terfs." You are so dumb it's almost funnier than it is sad... almost. "incredibly skewed world view." look in the mirror dawg "stop endlessly ruminating over discourse and your own identity and labels and pronouns and sexuality." Litterly you're ENTIRE blog, jus sayin' yeah okay the rest of this is way to mean so uh yeah.... I'm gonna block you so i can go back to enjoying my beautiful Queer art of varius mediums and fandoms... Watch Project Hail MAry you definitly need some hope in ur life idfk uuuhhhh don't kill yourself but also maybe finish high school?
all these words and no rebuttal
"I'm not homophobic, but you should change your sexuality to fit my narrative, or you're a bigot."
Yeah, sure, okay, change who I am because you don't like me this way.
The thing that I find so exhausting about "if the roles were reversed" is that the roles will NEVER truly be reversed. There is too great a difference between a man doing something, his motivations, his capabilities, and a woman doing something with her motivations and capabilities. Fundamentally a woman breaking a restraining order to show up at her ex's wedding will never be the same threat as a man doing the same. Not when women commit only 10-20% of violent crimes and carry guns at half the percentage men do. Not when the average man can overpower the average woman.
