note to self defending trans women on the internets from transmisogyny makes you white

tumblr called you my “go-to creator.” What are your thoughts on this.

stop harassing me. please.

[calware]

idk if this video has made its way to tumblr yet but i think about it all the time

[juney-blues]

man i sure do feel a certain way about homestuck beyond canon featuring explicit transmasc representation and joy front and center while transfemininity is relegated to metaphor and readings and teases of what's to come.

[juney-blues]

roxy gets to transition onscreen. davepeta is metaphorically transfem if you squint. vriska is implied to be trans in a spinoff visual novel and we barely fuckin do anything with that in the comic now that it's been established. there's the ever looming june egbert teases hanging over the whole thing but i honestly do not trust them to not fuck it up wholly and completely

[juney-blues]

always something to be referred to indirectly and through hushed whispers. talked around and never about. oh hey btw roxy finally stopped wearing the dysphoria hoodie yessss slay king!!!!

[juney-blues]

i'd say i'm happy for transmasc homestuck fans even if i wish the series would do better for transfems too, but no that'd be a lie. fuck you i'm smallminded and petty! this sucks and i'm not happy about any of it :D

[juney-blues]

fun how hs2 stopped running the first time in no small part due to an active harassment campaign against one of the transfems working on it. i wonder if things would still be this utterly shit if that had never happened lmao

[juney-blues]

basically i hope either in the next update we see vriska bulge and her doing her fucking shot of trollstrogen and like every omega kid is also doing estrogen OR i hope some fucking persona 4 shit happens to roxy. i am not kind or nice. i hope you suffer with me.

[juney-blues]

jade is a woman with a penis. thank god the epilogues heavily imply it wasn't always this way so we know she's atleast a CIS woman with a penis. BY THE WAY. ROXY LALONDE IS A TRANS GUY. STRAIGHT UP. NO FUCKING BONES ABOUT IT. WE SEE HIS TRANSITION JOURNEY ONSCREEN AND HOW HE AND OTHER PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT HIS GENDER IS SOMETHING THE STORY EXPLORES.

[juney-blues]

I am not holding out hope for official june egbert to be good. i do not think official june egbert is going to do a single thing to save any of this. this story has had plenty of opportunities to put transfemininity front and center in this way without her and it just never has. there have been so many missteps that if the story manages to handle this without making some *major* transmisogynistic pitfalls i will consider it a fucking miracle. I would be ecstatic to be proven wrong but there has not been a good foundation laid out for this at all.

believe me i would love nothing more than for the writers to make me look like an idiot for saying this, but as a human being with pattern recognition any time i've hoped for almost any kind of media not made explicitly by and for transfems to be good with transfem stuff, i've looked like an even bigger idiot.

it is really like this. is the thing.

[juney-blues]

FUCKING. SPEAKING OF METAPHORICALLY TRANSFEM. THOUGH THIS EXAMPLE BARELY FUCKING COUNTS CONSIDERING HOW UTTERLY BLATANT IT IS.

CALLIOPE.

God. inhabits the body of a man, literally chooses to be a girl. but no actually fuck you. now they've REALLY thought about gender, and no one would *actually* choose to be a girl if they had the option, silly! this is how we establish our characters are getting woke about gender, when before they were of course all idiot babies who didn't know any better. consciously moving away from femininity. this is the only way any kind of transness can manifest. hey are we maybe forgetting someone y'think

[autoserketphilia]

You heard it here, folks! There won't be any trans women in Hiveswap: Act 3 because it just isn't #EconomicallyViable! Jesus fucking Christ. Grow a goddamn backbone.

recently while poking around a little on reddit (mistake), i discovered a post on a subreddit called something along the lines of 'leftwingmen' discussing frustration with progressive people refusing to entertain misandry as a concept. this was about as hilarious and pathetic as you would expect, but the top comment suggested using 'trans*ndrophobia' as a foot in the door to get people to admit to the existence of misandry and leverage from there. it is unsurprising and we have known this for some time, but it is still unsettling to see tboy gamergate being uplifted by the same demographic who gave us the original.

[healsypally]

The fact that TME trans people routinely, successfully buddy-up with both TERFs and also cis male gamergaters should not be as surprising as it is.

Transmisogyny is an inherently unifying force, by design. “Okay so you’re this queer, but you don’t accept those gross evil queerer queers, right?”
