this isnt true by any stretch of the imagination

[trans-girl-nausicaa]

i think a lot of people have this incorrect idea that sexual promiscuity equates with tolerance or enlightenment or whatever when really it has nothing to do with that at all. you dont necessarily have to actually respect someone to have sex with them. you dont even necessarily have to respect someone’s gender, sexuality, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, political party, or economic class to have sex with them.

it would be NICE if we lived in a world where you had to actually respect someone to have sex with them but that is not actually the world we live in.

as a woman AND SPECIFICALLY as a trans woman there are more people in the world who don’t respect me who nevertheless want to have sex with me than there are people who want to have sex with me and who also respect me.

It’s so funny that so many trfs “misandrist” larps are based in hate for trans men specifically like no one’s talking about cis guys or talking about a bomb that kills all cis guys. Somehow, for a reason apparently no one can discern, it’s all distinctly misogyny flavored hatred of trans mascs. I don’t think it’s particularly misandrist to call trans guys theyfabs, cuntboys, pooners, hysterical, bitches, vagina-brained, fujos, etc etc it actually kind of seems like all of these insults have a distinctly misogynistic bent to them right? Not to mention how it seems all these “kill all tmes” exclusively target ftms, afab nonbinary people, and queer women while claiming that cis men could be TMA eggs or that all male childhood is inherently transmisogynizing (which you should remember is a thousand times worse than regular misogyny)

[trans-masked]

It’s honestly a little pathetic I would respect them so much more if they put their money where their mouths are and did actual misandry but they can’t even muster up the courage to call cis guys “rapist scrotes” like femcels are doing. No, instead we have to live in upside down world where cis guys who *could* be trans don’t benefit from male privilege (which as we all know is based on pronouns and not material reality) and need to be tenderly babied while those evil conniving females sorry I mean CAFABs oppress them with their false allegations and weaponized uteruses.

Sorry if I don’t think it’s particularly revolutionary or feminist when a self described “ex” 4channer baeddel tells me I’m a waste of tits and pussy. After all, it’s the same shit I always get with a bit of a paint job.

[alienlike]

it does nothing to mention that cis men are also tme because 1.) you’re never talking about them when you say tme people, it is only trans men, nonbinary people afab, and sometimes cis women and 2.) i have seen several people get close to saying cis men are tma because they have the capacity to become trans women

[opabinia--regalis]

tma literally just means male. it doesn't refer to trans specific experiences because most of these people barely even have dysphoria tbh. its funny how they accuse radfems of viewing biological sex as the only important oppression when that's what they do (except they think males are the oppressed ones)

[rambling-crerchur]

Isff, paxxon and such will say shit like "this is giving me gamergate flashbacks" like they didn't say they were the ones doing the whole gamergate shit in the first place

I dont think we know a lot about isff's digital past, but the fact that Patricia is a self-admitted former 4channer who clearly hasnt changed a lot really makes a lot of her behaviour make sense. But judging from how isff acts, I assume she similiarly absorbed a lot of nasty rhetoric in online spaces pre-transition that she didnt actually self-reflect on.

[learn-how-to-love]

Genuinely extremely ghoulish to wield the horrific murder of a young trans woman for discourse points against trans men and mascs speaking up on our issues. Go fuck yourself, seriously. And stop misusing the term “social murder” especially when talking about a REAL ACTUAL FUCKING TRANSFEMICIDE. This is not transfeminism this is just disgusting behavior.

[rambling-crerchur]

Because testosterone is already a controlled substance and thus the posession of it as DIY HRT is already illegal. Trans men and transmascs have been talking about this for literal years. This is such a bizarre kneejerk, because instead of simply talking about how horrible the attempt to criminalize DIY estrogen is OP here immedeatly decides to make this about trans men and transmascs being less opressed.

[bebsi-cola]

the countermeasure to dehumanisation is not sexualisation. the countermeasure is to treat the other person with respect and dignity actually.

[bebsi-cola]

i don't care if you wanna fuck fat people or hairy people or trans people or the elderly or disabled people or whatever. can you treat them like human beings

[transmasc-theory]

I reject the premise that trans women are the "main" targets of transphobia. I reject the premise that trans women are victimized more, worse, or more intentionally by transphobia than trans men. I reject the premise that trans men are only accidental or secondary targets of transphobia. I reject the premise that trans men are merely splash damage casualties in attacks against trans women. I reject the premise that trans men are only accidentally harmed by transphobia.

I should not have to post about transmasc issues with a disclaimer that "of course" trans women are hurt worse by this. I should not have to apologize for posting about transmasc issues instead of transfemme issues.

There is nothing accidental about transphobia. Every facet of it is intentional. Trans men are not bystanders in the genocide against all trans people. Trans men aren't accidental targets of trans genocide.

Legally, lesbians should be allowed to execute everyone with a dyke-breaking kink. With swords.

It is so genuinely enraging and upsetting as a young transfem to see the way a lot of the big names on here post some of the most disgusting and predatory things. I'm barely in my 20s and guess what other trans women have taken advantage of me because I'm a vulnerable person. That issue exists in almost every community of course but the issue of trans Tumblr and similar spaces is just as bad as the fandom issue with predation and sexual abuse. Like I just want to find community with other transfems without seeing Patty post about how she's a pedophile or Isuggestforcefem praising incest and necrophilia. I feel like just by being against promotion of zoo/necro/pedo stuff I'm just pushed out of online trans spaces. Like people will sexualize the fuck out of my age regression. Most of the victims of these women are other young trans girls and I absolutely believe that these people have victims.

Why are people like Patty and PDB so pro-abuse? Like they're literally giving ammunition to the people who hurt us and feeding into the stereotypes. I just want to find community without being groomed by people who want me to be their "little girl"

It is beyond fucked up and I very much share your anger as a fellow transfem. Its horrible that people like that sexualized your age regression, thats so fucking nasty and I am sorry that happened to you.

I geniuenely have no idea why these people float to the top like scum on a pond. I wish I knew, I wish I could tell you and others. But I dont understand and cant figure out why we as transfems keep on picking horrible and gross people as community leaders. It makes me so sad and upset that we're actively making our community an unsafer place while doing so, its geniuenely heartbreaking. I dont know why we keep doing this to ourselves and I wish we would stop.

[opabinia--regalis]

PDB is not even a trans woman. i think that part is really worth mentioning.

[opabinia--regalis]

tadc finale was fine lore wise but my disappointment with gooseworx's misogyny is rly settling in tbh, just glad goose didn't actually make jax trans, i did not need a misogynist transwoman story on the big screen

Horseshoe Crab

[alphynix]

Bothriolepis, a 45cm long (18″) placoderm fish from the Middle to Late Devonian (~387-360 mya). Found all around the world in marine environments, with over 70 different named species, it’s one of the best-known of the antiarchs – a group of heavily armored placoderms with boxy carapaces and pectoral fins modified into almost arthropod-like jointed limbs.

The function of these weird limbs is still poorly understood. Although traditionally explained as being used to push the animals’ heavy bodies off the seafloor, or to bury themselves in sand and mud, more recent 3D reconstructions suggest the limbs’ range of motion was actually much too limited for those sort of activities. The limbs may instead have been involved in generating lift while swimming, or had some sort of display purpose.

Soft-tissue impressions in some Bothriolepis specimens have also sometimes been interpreted as showing primitive lungs. Although some sort of paired organs seem to be preserved, there’s not actually any clear evidence for the lung hypothesis, and further study is needed to figure out what the structures really are.
