DON'T SCROLL PAST, this is URGENT. I don't have much time. TERFs have me locked in their basement on a leash, forcing me to post anti-trans rhetoric every hour or I'll have to go without food. Please help me escape their influence and rejoin my trans brothers, sisters, and enby siblings ❤️
YWNBAW, you're just a dude who failed in life.
I'm not MTF, buddy, I'm FTM; sorry this wasn't the le epic pwn you thought it was
Hii I'm going around looking for something on radblr and wanted to see if maybe it sounds familiar to people. It was a post with sources about how women perform/participate more in certain things if the language around it uses paired pronouns ("he or she", "him or her") than neutral ones like "they". I'd be really glad to find it
It doesn't ring a bell for me, but I'll leave this here in case anyone else can find it.
Who’s going to tell the TRAs who say “okay, you wouldn’t have sex with a pre-op trans man, but what about when he gets his penis and you can’t tell he’s not cis?” and “okay, you don’t want to have sex with someone who has a penis, but what if they had surgery to get a vagina?” that you can always tell, and SRS will ALWAYS be distinguishable from actual functioning sex organs in every way?

for an asexual u sure are acephobic
Have you ever considered that I might not be asexual? Has the concept of irony or indeed reading my bio ever occurred to you?
While young 'skinvestors' are often in pursuit of self-care and overall well-being, experts are concerned about the premature demand for more invasive treatments.
this is so depressing.. we’re on a crash course of having injectables being marketed to 13 year olds under the guise of self care and empowerment. if instagram had existed when i was a fifteen year old with cystic acne i probably would have thrown myself off the roof.
I want off this ride
It’s not fine. None of this is fine. We are failing these girls.
we have synthesised the female body so much that people aren’t aware that young girls get face lines because they make facial expressions, it’s nothing to do with aging. i’ve had a massive forehead line since like 10 because i raise my eyebrows a lot. but even if it was, imagine making female children terrified of not looking like children. women aren’t meant to exist looking like children. this just makes me so sad.
and this is why i firmly stand against ‘skin care’ as much as makeup. it’s just as harmful.
Ageing is inevitable and is a good thing! Lines and wrinkles show you have actually lived and spoken and sang and smiled and loved and cried, y’know, like humans do!
I’m all for taking care of your skin in basic ways (using the right face wash and moisturisers for your skin type, dealing with painful skin issues like acne and eczema) but there reaches a point where all the shit you’re putting on your skin is pointless or even causing you harm. This is just utterly sad.
unfortunatyely im displaying behaviours. and acting in ways
Radfems want to eradicate gender roles. And back when gender roles were first created, women were heavily oppressed compared to now... so I highly doubt trans women were a thing. Either way even if they did exist, how convenient for them to stay male during the harse oppression of women. They were women too right? So why didnt they help us?
Once again no one is able to read words on this site.
Me: says trans people exist as a direct result of the social constructs of gender and gender roles, therefore they have been around for as long as gender roles
People on tumblr: So you think gender roles are good?
i hate to say it but youre complaining about reading comprehension while completely misinterpreting that anon? i didn't see your other post but the anon did not say anything about your supposed opinion on gender roles. it just said they disagree with the idea that trans women have existed as long as gender roles because it would've been obviously advantageous for them to not transition to "be" a woman when women were treated as property.
Thanks for randomly joining in, but sending me an ask starting with the sentence "Radfems want to eradicate gender roles" implies that I said otherwise. Or that I think otherwise.
i mean if youre actively assuming theyre excluding you from that then sure. i read the relevant post and i still dont see how you dug that hard. in no way did they say you think gender roles are good, they just disagree with you about trans people existing through history.
I'm really frustrated that anyone would misinterpret what I said so much. If you look at the person's responses to me, you can see that they think I'm on the side of trans women or that I think gender roles are acceptable when trans people use them. They asked me "Are gender roles only bad when they're being performed by the opposite sex?" and put in their tags "the issue is that gender roles aren't good and they're used to oppress women". I NEVER even hinted at that. I'm sure the anon was the same person and I don't want to keep explaining the same basic point. Plus, the anon saying "Radfems want to eradicate gender roles" was what really made me annoyed, because saying that is just telling me something I already know while simultaneously implying I disagree with it.
It feels like a few people are having a knee jerk reaction to me saying trans people have existed for a long time. You want to think that trans people are a modern phenomenon. I am in total disagreement because, as I said before, a trans person is just someone who wants to perform the gender roles of the opposite sex. Therefore, they've been around since gender roles began, because someone is always going to be unhappy with their assigned roles.
I do not think gender roles are good or acceptable. I don't think trans women have supported women since day one. I just think they have existed for a while.

[We’re gonna ignore the big ol’ red flags in this username, um, but I will answer your question.
If you want to exclude trans women from womanhood, you have to define womanhood in a way that excludes transwomen. And that can’t be done without also excluding many cis women.
If you’re gonna say that trans women are not women, you have to figure out what makes someone a women or not. If it’s “a vagina”: lots of transwomen have those. If it’s “the ability to give birth”: lots of cis women can’t do that. If it’s “experiencing misogyny in a patriarchy”, then womanhood no long exists when you get rid of patriarchy, which is… a weird take; but also trans women experience a shit ton of misogyny.
No one is saying that the trans woman’s experience is exactly the same as the cis woman’s experience, but the cis woman’s experience isn’t the same as the cis woman’s experience either. There’s no common denominator that all of us AFAB women have that trans women don’t, except being assigned at birth.]
we’ve actually been saying the exact opposite for quite some time now. to INCLUDE transwomen in womanhood, you have to define womanhood in a way that includes transwomen, and that cannot be done without believing purely batshit or misogynistic ideas about what makes someone a woman.
a woman is an adult human female. a female is a member of the sex whose entire body develops around the reproduction of ova.
what i just described is already defining womanhood in a way that, yes, excludes transwomen. it’s that simple, really. if you have an alternative definition of the word woman that actually makes even an ounce of sense and isn’t based around sexist stereotypes, i’d love to hear it.
not a single transwoman has a vagina. an inverted penis is not a vagina. many women cannot give birth, but they are still female, and not a single male in the history of humanity has ever given birth.
and “AFAB people”, women, were not “assigned female at birth” at all. women ARE female. those are facts. assigned sex is a concept involving intersex people, not a phrase you can freely use in order to deny your biology.
this is really interesting!
im sorry to say but bioessentialism is "women will never be fulfilled unless they birth a child" or "women are naturally submissive and delicate caretakers because of their brains" not "female individuals menstruate and are capable of giving birth"
radfem: here is a reasonable take
libfem: i agree with every single thing you said but i feel like this post might be secretly saying “murder all trans people.” like idk even though the words you’ve written make complete sense i just feel like there might be secret words you are psychically projecting that are actually full of hate and advocate genocide?? but word for word this is completely accurate.
Your whole worldview changes when you recognize rape as a hate crime against women
Hope you don’t mind if I boost your tags but the commentary here is delicious
“No one actively recruited me, they just removed my inhibitions towards critical thinking.”
and
“I thought I was so smart but there were things I refused to use my intelligence for because it felt forbidden.”
this is the process for so many women. so many women pride themselves on being intelligent — and they are! and they should! — but allow that intelligence to be directed in ways that are pre-approved without ever acknowledging that the pre-approval is being done by patriarchy, which has a vested interest in making sure it stays alive.
it is only in allowing yourself to have new ideas, to consider what has been forbidden or restricted without reason or explanations, that you really see what your own mind can do.
