you guys do realise walking doesn't actually move you anywhere right? it just destroys you entirely and places a perfect copy of you right in front of where you were standing

roald dahl was antisemitic and misogynistic. george orwell was openly homophobic. edgar allan poe married his 13 year old cousin. dr seuss cheated on his wife (and was racist as well as antisemitic!). hp lovecraft was racist as fuck. anyways they’re fucking dead it’s not like you’re enabling their behaviors in the afterlife or something. then again I think they bleed into the books so uh keep an eye out for that

the difference between these old white guys and jk rowling is that the former group is all dead. jk rowling is alive and using your money to oppress trans people

I understand the uneasiness around nonbinary people seeing tme/tma as another binary they want to avoid arbitrarily being "sorted" into but the fact of the matter is as long as the sex-gender binary as a socially constructed institution exists and is violently enforced via transmisogynistic oppression, tme/tma will continue to be useful terms for identifying the primary targets of that oppression and there is only so much a nonbinary person can do to avoid reckoning with that violently enforced binary.

You can't individualistically discard the sex-gender binary internally and not reckon with the fact that as a social construction it still exists and needs to be dismantled. That can't happen from individual action.

I'm seeing a lot of people saying agab language should be used in medical contexts, and let me be clear:

"amab" and "afab" are not euphemisms for "male" and "female." not even a doctor should be using "afab" as shorthand for "has a vulva, uterus, high estrogen levels, low testosterone levels, etc," because HRT EXISTS! gender affirming surgeries exist! intersex people exist! you can be afab and change, remove, or not even have been born with any of the above features!!

you cannot use "amab" and "afab" as a shorthand for "has this or that set of features!"

it's not about using progressive language, it's about accurately accounting for people who exist outside the sex binary. those of us who do are under-studied, and the medical system is poorly equipped to handle us, often lumping us in with our agabs and failing to account for how our bodies actually work. this is a PROBLEM that cannot be papered over by finding new euphemisms for "male" and "female"

the BINARY is the problem, not the language

“My favorite movie is ‘Jodorowsky's Dune,’” she said. = looks stupid and bad, the movie isn’t titled Jodorowsky’s Dune Comma.

do you think cis guys who grew up with one or more AFAB siblings have at least an initial advantage when it comes to social relations with women in their age group (e.g. they're less awkward around female bodies and are a bit more knowledgeable about periods compared to other cis guys)?

whether or not men benefit from feminism has no bearing on whether feminism is worthwhile

[cutecipher]

put another way. i dont care about how men are impacted by feminism

[cutecipher]

already have people mad about this. okay here's another take. men should be feminists for no benefit.
