there are too many things happening this summer that i'm thinking we are going to need an extra 6-12 months of june and possibly another 3-4 months of july. probably no extra august as the problem should hopefully sort itself out by then. we are also looking into extending the day night cycle to 55 hours and extending the human lifespan to 10000 years.

No more waiting, no more debating, get your hrt! "What if I'm not actually trans?" You are, now go. "I'm scared!" We all were, now go. "What if my friends don't accept me?" Then they weren't your friends, now go. "What if my spouse doesn't accept me?" Get divorced, now go. "There's a long wait to be seen at the clinic." Then get your name on it now or diy, now go. "I'm scared of the doctors" Diy is safe and easy, now go. "I'm scared of transphobia." Choosing to remain depressed and hurting to satisfy bigots means the bigots win.

It's time to pursue your happiness, it's time to pursue your true self, stop allowing yourself to live in agony, go now.

I do believe in the power of sitting in your car just a little longer before heading inside, lying upside down on the couch, cloud gazing well into adulthood, taking the time to learn something new, humility, recollecting your dreams, pressing something warm against your belly, small talk w strangers, odes to romance, a lit candle on your countertop while you cook, having a sense of humor about life

I get the importance of the transfem community warnings but sometimes I see shit like girls talking other girls out of trying to get their teaching certificates because of the potential for harassment from conservative parents and idk that's very real but also at a certain point we are just doing preemptive hiring discrimination to ourselves

[filmphotofranz]

Like on the one hand it is very real that societal transphobia would like to see us all unemployed, forced to do survival sex work. But also that's not the only reality available to us at this point! And sometimes I worry that we are self policing in a way by flooding so many trans girls with this message of "your only options are to get super good at onlyfans or be Raytheon's strongest coder" when like, so many of the women I know are teachers, home care workers, nannies, day care workers, postal workers. Not glamorous, but like, idk the world of lower middle class pink collar jobs is available to us more or less at this point. Other girls have office jobs, some girls have to work food service and retail. But we get to exist in some form besides either NEETs or internet famous porn girls. And obvi hiring discrimination is real, and obvi disability issues come into play for a lot of us that makes a lot of the work I just mentioned inaccessible. I'm not saying things are sweet out there. But there is a world out there where you can live. Maybe not in the exact way you want, maybe not super easily, but you can live.

I think part of it is people REALLY don't want to accept that trans women face misogyny

[mousidy]

they love to scrub the misogyny off of transmisogyny and try to say it's just transphobia

[mousidy]

wonder how mask off some people would go if we were to occasionally mix in just calling it misogyny. because transmisogyny is a subset. of misogyny

[mousidy]

failing to live up to a narrow standard of womanhood can straight up get us denied lifesaving healthcare and that's apparently just not misogyny...?

[mousidy]

science: "yup this healthcare will dramatically reduce her chances of depression and suicide and there's a regret rate so low it's miraculous 👍"

the healthcare system: "ok but like does she really deserve it... she didn't smile for me..."

[mousidy]

consider how thoroughly and constantly scrutinized and punished we are for perceived failures to live up to the narrow patriarchal standards of womanhood. men are not punished for failing to achieve womanhood. if they are punished for femininity, it's because they are failing to achieve manhood

trans women, on the other hand, are very frequently punished in a way where the pressure is toward performing the patriarchal idea of womanhood, not away from it

trans women are often criticized by saying that we stereotype womanhood, but we are coerced to perform the same patriarchal stereotypes as all women are

being a horror fan will have you saying sentences such as “i liked it a lot, super gross and sad”

The phrase "TME/TMA is just asking for your genitals in a woke way!!!" exposes a few things

I mean, first off, you can have a penis if you are tme AND if you are tma. Same goes for having a vulva. THIS part exposes two things

they, the people who parrot this, are mixing up tme and tma with transmasc and transfem. if this was the purpose of tme/tma we would simply always say transmasc/transfem. but no, TME crucially contains all cis people and a lot of trans people who dont necessarily identify as transmasc but were not CAMAB. And TMA includes all trans people CAMAB, even if they may not identify as transfem. It is focusing on the oppression rather than what specific labels a person may use.

They're forgetting TMA people can... get bottom surgery. Wonder why that is. Wonder why they're reducing people affected by transmisogyny to an approximation of their genitals at birth. Surely it's not the... transmisogyny they're affected by???

But the main reason people say this lies in the full sentence:

3. they wanna accuse TMA transfeminists of being evil pervert creeps because they are transmisogynists :/
