The following primarily speaks on racialization and misogyny, but I’d like y’all to also consider it in the context of transmisogyny and how transmascs behave towards transfemmes. It’s not a 1 to 1 transfer, but I believe it rings similarly to the issues.

“I have found that people who experience privilege in a given area yet disadvantage or disenfranchisement in another struggle deeply with empathy—they do not know how to sit with the grief of their marginalization and the responsibility of their privilege. Privilege is not linear: we all have areas in which our social location allows us to wield power, whether inadvertently or intentionally, in ways that cause harm.

At the time of the Ferguson uprising, I observed a Black man tell a white woman that she would never understand what it’s like to fear leaving her home. He was so blinded by his own grief that he was unable to recognize that she, and every woman on this earth, knows what it’s like to fear leaving their home. To walk home at night. To wear certain outfits in public.

This man’s reaction caused me to wonder how he could possibly support Black women in our grief, regardless of how many Black women he had dated, loved, or married—or the ones who were his children or part of his family—when he could not open his heart to witness the fullness of our experience.

Similarly, I find very little hope in ‘feminist’ spaces because they are often overrun by white women who believe that their experiences of womanhood are all-inclusive and whi don’t see policing of Black women’s bodies as issues affecting ‘woman’”

“We are trained to be wary of Black men’s grief and potential triggers as we walk the impossible path of managing our own safety in a community where men recklessly accept the privileges of masculinity to offset the burden of Blackness.

When we draw our boundaries within these dynamics, we are cast us unfair, une pathetic, and bitter. The same anger that is viewed as just when attached to the plight of Black men based on race is used to silence and delegitimize Black women because of our race and gender.

We are disparaged for being nothing more than ‘hurt’ women. The fact is that many of us are hurt, but those experiences give us authority in matters of intersectional justice and liberation, just as the pain caused by racism gives Black men a voice.”
