"Be a girl or give up" wait like.... is that post saying cis and trans men should be women bc apparently women = pure and better (aka detransition for trans men) or they should just die?? lmfao if that just doesn't trigger me and gives me anxiety as a trans man (not your fault for posting it btw, also I blocked them)
yeah this is, unfortunately, a common line of rhetoric among Baeddels- that trans men should detransition/"choose" not to be men, because being a man is inherently immoral.
TIRFs tend to parrot the same ideas without blatantly aiming it at trans men: "be a girl or give up" is a great example, because it carries a sort of plausible deniability in that it doesn't mention trans men by name. "It's not about you," they'll say when criticized, "it's obviously just a joke about cis men!"
But when you sit down and think about it for any length of time, there isn't a way of reading this that doesn't imply that trans men are making the Immoral Choice by being men. Either they forgot that trans men existed and refuse to reflect on their bigotry (accidental or no) when reminded, or they very much intended for those implications to be there in the first place- and simply don't want to be held accountable for them. (Not that the implications about cis men are cool & productive & healthy either)
All that said, if you go to OP's twitter it's like 5 seconds of scrolling before you hit the "the worst thing someone can be is a man", "nonbinary people are unhygienic and never use deoderant" and "men are inherently abusive" tweets, so it's safe to say she's probably just a Baeddel- & a truscum to boot.
