'Scuse me if i'm running my mouth here but I dunno. There's something weirdly uncomfortable about the othering of cishet people in queer spaces. As though there's no room for overlap. As though we don't also have complex experiences and can also hold queer identities. Cishets can also be queer. Let's try to remember that before we make sweeping statements about what cishet people do or don't feel or experience, yeah?

Keep up your posts bro <3 i see you’re getting into some discourse over it. but don’t be disheartened! just take a break if they get too much, please <3

Thank you!

honestly i didnt really want to get involved in any of this but im so tired of seeing certain individuals treat trans men like shit

ik this is chronically online bullshit but its such a problem on this website, which sucks cause i love it here

But yeah i’ve learned by now that people like this will not listen to a word i say no matter how correct i am, they will always take me in the worst faith if they dont directly put words in my mouth (like you just saw). They want an argument not a discussion

I HATE when people talk about detrans folk and then. misgender them. Sorry but that MTFTM guy is a detrans man, not a detrans woman.

I also hate when people say “detransitioner” when they mean political detransitioner. Girl I use neopronouns DO NOT lump me in with people who want to take away my boyfriend’s healthcare

Friendly reminder, "the sane people agree with this", "you have to be insane to disagree with this", "if you disagree then you need therapy", "you're psychotic/crazy/insane/a sociopath/narcissist if you disagree with this" are all ableist things to say.

ppl are like BEING TRANS ISNT A CHOICE and im just. well not for you, maybe. and not for me. but like, for some folks it is??? and they're just as welcome to it? the whole point is to normalize transness and if folks are seeing that and going 'yeah that feels better' and choosing that... i dont have a problem with it. i refuse to withhold self-identification from anyone

unfriendly fucking reminder that transmisandry, also known as transandromisia, is VERY FUCKING REAL, and transmascs giving a name to our specific experiences of transphobia that some unaligned/transneut and transfem individuals don’t experience is not taking anything away from the discussions of transmisogyny that are still happening. one group speaking up about their oppression does not equate to erasing the oppression of another group.

obligatory some people obviously do use transmisandry to decredit lived experiences of transmisogyny. I’m not excusing that. some people also use transmisogyny to decredit lived experiences of transmisandry, which is equally not okay.

EDIT: if you're going to debate us or call us some kind of horrific name like a pedo apologist, transmisogynist, etc. please just block and move on with your day. we are not interested in having a panic attack just because you feel the need to state your unwanted opinion on our personal vent post.

as an ex-transmed...honestly transmedicalism is so unscientific i s2g

there is no “man brain” or “woman brain” that can just randomly belong to either sex category...peoples’ brains are mixes of traits that may or may not be more commonly associated with one sex or the other...

like have y’all ever thought about the concept that a sense of “gender identity” forms in response to those brain differences being gendered by society - not things that are inherently gendered as man or woman - and people with certain traits then feel a dissonance? people absorb the social constructions of gender very young and have it imposed on them since birth. also have y’all ever heard of neuroplasticity? it’s foolish af to act like something so present in society wouldn’t impact how our brains and sense of self develop

transmedicalism relies on people not knowing anything else about the brain and looking at a few cherrypicked studies in a vacuum
