non-transmasc. before you is a transmasc person talking about their experiences with being transmasculine and the oppression that they experience for being transmasculine. the bomb detonates if you tell them to just call it transphobia, if you imply their oppression/experience is incorrect, if you tell them that they signed up for it for being transmasculine. begin.
one of my favorite parts of being aromantic + romance repulsed is celebrating when people leave relationships that they’re glad to be leaving like yass bitch get that divorce, love loses !! 🔥🔥🔥
insane that saying something along the lines of “not having a mental/physical illness/disability doesn’t make you superior to a person that does” is something people still reject on principal. we are all people man. you matter as a person the same that anyone else would. no you are not morally better because you’re not sick/disabled. no they are not worth less than you because they might need more help. can we be better and more kind to each other this year
maybe trans people online wouldn’t conflate “being a man” and “being a woman” as opposites if they 1. didnt feel the intrinsic need to put down masculinity/femininity to prove that they’re “a real trans” and 2. didn’t see each other’s problems as something to want because patriarchal societies reward those who enforce gender roles and norms.
there’s a real envy problem in online communities where everyone gets competitive about things important to themselves like self expression and in turn lash out at others when they live the way they want and they seemingly “get to” (ignoring any struggle the trans person is going through) with “no consequences” (that trans’s persons problems are “lesser”/“not important” because if you went through it people would see you as a man/woman) and thats fucked! gender essentialism and enforcing the binary is the last thing that will help people
it’s so obvious how no one talks to transmascs about their experiences and people will just make shit up because they’re too Man to be a victim of bigotry (ignoring the fact that transmasc people aren’t always men or only men).
i promise you if you talk to other trans people about what they go through, it won’t invalidate your own experiences.
(hi also if you’re someone who is about to reply or @ me about this because you have So Many Opinions on transmascs and you aren’t transmasc? i’m hitting you with my car. make your own post.)
i think the end of the day, a vast majority of “queer discourse” boils down to “(queer experience) doesn’t match My queer experience so it’s wrong. i will moralize this and imply that living this experience is negative and (queer experience)phobic” and it’s so pointless and it completely swallows up people because it’s easier to blame others for being happy than trying to figure out why you aren’t when you try to emulate the Correct Queer Experience.
but like. if a queer person is alive and living in joy they are the correct queer experience.
lots of polyam discourse coming from a site that doesn’t go outside and interact with people it seems
(person who doesn’t go outside voice) erm and everyone clapped :) i am very intelligent
