The whole "Elvis sighting" thing is hilarious because, like, the first documented career Elvis impersonators began working over twenty years before the guy even died. I wonder why a public figure who has a whole industry of people who look and sound like him would generate an unusual number of posthumous sightings? It Is A Mystery.

It really is crazy the way anybody ever managed to push the idea that there is a real, tangible "transmasc erasure". If you look up books, comics, movies, plays, etc. starring a trans protagonist pretty much every single time they are going to be trans masc or TME nonbinary. You have some notable exceptions like Nevada, or Detransition Baby, but pretty much every one of those is going to be BY a transfem author telling our own stories. But they will swear that transmascs are being erased in media compared to trans women so you will go through a list of the top 50 trans books and top 10 trans films for pride and the top 8 queer comic lists and they will pretty much all be about a transmasc experience and you will be like. okay so I reviewed 60 pieces of media and 5 of them were interested in representing trans women and the rest were transmasc or TME nb what do you mean by erasure and they will look you in the eye and say with a full chest "I am jealous that you guys get more blood libel than us"

And pointing this out gets you treated as if your insane. They all literally claim the opposite is happening, and point to the same like 6 transfem characters from the last 20 years as proof of it — like Sense 8 and Orange is the New Black.

It's literally that study that found men think a room is mostly women when its only like 30% women, or something like that.

It's literally the exact same thing as what it currently happening with god of war and has been happening since gamergate. Men mistake representation of women for the erasure of men, all parties being trans does not change this dynamic.

Transmascs are not forgetting their representation, they are using the scant representation of transfems which does exist as evidence that they are being erased. The implicit belief that everything should always be about men is the same one which causes them to make every post on tumblr about themselves.
