I keep referencing that tree image used to demonstrate why the LGB without the T is awful, and will not help transphobic pericis queer people at all like they seem to think, to explain how intersexism in the trans community is the same. I tried to find it to make an edit of it to but couldn’t. So, have my shoddy stick figure attempt at recreation:
I just realized I misspelled something, but oh well. The ALT text fixes it, and my handwriting is awful I know, I am try to make a better version later but until then or unless I don’t the alt text could help you understand it better as well.
Anywho. The 2S keeps getting docked off, too, dismissed and mislabeled so that’s why it’s with the I. And the vast majority of the I is not queerphobic or transphobic, before someone zeroes in on that thinking they got a real zinger. They do exist, though, unfortunately. There are also intersexist intersex people, whether they consider themselves trans or not, whether they are queer or not who are not -phobic to the acronym at large (or insist they aren’t) that join in on sawing off other intersex people but I didn’t know where to put those. Being gender diverse or queer sadly does not automatically make you a good person.
I don’t know what else to say other than we need to love each other more than they hate us. We need to protect each other. We should be lifting each other up, being an actual community, not ripping each other to shreds. Our scapegoating our already scapegoated community helps fascists, they attack from outside and you do from within doing that.
