I get that we don't know if gooseworx deactivated herself or got deleted but the people immediately jumping to her getting deleted and specifically because she's transfem are absolutely jumping the gun when they do not have evidence for both of those leaps of logic.

Gooseworx is notorious for deleting/deactivating her social medias when she gets called out or criticized directly. She's done it on Instagram and she's done it on Reddit, intentionally allowing her most rabid fans to assume it was the criticizer's fault and whatever they were criticizing her for, before going onto to clear the air that it was neither and just her being defensive. She literally deleted her reddit account because 2 people were, respectfully, upset at the lack of ragatha content in what was supposed to be ragatha's episode. She then sat for nearly a week allowing people to tear those 2 accounts to shreds for "harassment" (to the point of both of them deleting their accounts) and then everyone tearing into every ragatha fan or defender on every site just for them to go silent when she admitted on Twitter she didn't respond maturely (she didn't) and she was just in a bad place and couldn't take the criticism.

She and glitch and her show-baby are getting sent through the ringer right now with all her nasty shit in the distant and recent past getting drug up because people are rightfully waking up to its shitiness, I would not be surprised if she decided to delete her Tumblr, wait awhile then eventually come out on Twitter and say she just couldn't take the pressure again. We don't even have evidence that gooseworx was deleted by Tumblr in the first place, let alone what she was deleted for. I imagine, considering she's been deactivated a few days now and hasn't suddenly popped up on Twitter saying " hey Tumblr wtf why did you delete my account for no reason", she deactivated herself or was deleted for a good reason she doesn't wanna own. That or she just simply didn't want Tumblr anymore.

When Tumblr deletes your account, they send an email specifically pointing out what you did that broke tos enough to delete you, they don't just do it out of nowhere and say nothing. I've had an account get deleted before (because Ig I vented a little too close to the sun about an Ed, Tumblr is incredibly sensitive about that, even if I'm pro-recovery), they told me exactly what I did. I've seen it happen to others and they tell them exactly what they did. If gooseworx got deleted, she could either remake or show the email Tumblr sends but she's done neither.

Why? Because she deleted herself. That's the only reason that makes any sense. She's been shown to be all too happy to make her audience believe anyone who criticizes her is the enemy that got her account deleted and she's innocent until she chooses to clear it up. If she hates that people are pointing out all the bigotries that have led us to this point, that's she's allowed or done herself, she could take ownership and apologize but she's still not even acknowledged half of them, let alone apologized. She could quite literally be banking on you making that assumption that it's Transmysognistic Tumblr staff who got rid of her account or haters mass reporting her so she still doesn't have to take responsibility for her repetitive racism.

Until gooseworx comes out and says she got deleted by Tumblr and proves the reason why, I'm not going to assume Tumblr did anything. Yes, Tumblr dose have an issue of unfairly terminating trans and poc accounts, but I've also seen this excuse used time and time again by people who proudly tell trans men to kys or post literal porn. I'm taking case by case here until proven otherwise, especially considering even her defenders didn't believe Tumblr deactivated her because she's transfem until a day ago, even they believe she did it herself.

So please, don't go jumping to a vehemently racist and mysognistic white trans woman's defense just because Tumblr is shitty on zero evidence. Until, or unless, she clears up why her Tumblr went poof, I'm going to assume she did it herself because she's done this in the past with even less criticism.

I think we may now know why Hank Green’s video on hrt sucks

let's be fucking clear here. let's be fucking clear.

the puberty blockers and the supreme court decision are connected.

if the government says "trans women who are perceived as women are still protected" (and I pass over that judicial shitshow of a decision in silence) (i lied it's in the tags)

and that same government has withdrawn the tools to transition from the adult and children population, so that increasingly few trans women meet arbitrary visual categories of womanhood,

that is a government creating the conditions in which no trans women are protected.

"trans women who are mysognistic are so silly 😜 he he what are they thinking?"

They think cis women (and Transmasc people by extension) are inferior. Stop pretending this is something silly or harmless or not the consequences of male socialization, transandrophobia, internalized mysogny and normal run of the mill mysogny where they see themselves as "better women" than cis women and that is a dangerous problem.

Stop lieing and saying most of them apply that mysogny to themselves too because they dont. They never apply it to themselves unless it benefits them ("I'm just a stupid girl, how was I supposed to know that was a slur/it's wrong to touch strangers that way/etc."). They apply to cis women and Transmascs. They apply that mysogny exclusively to cis women and Transmascs, not other trans women. This is not meaningless intracommunity discourse, it's fucking mysogny and usually includes transphobia and transandrophobia towards Transmascs. I still can't believe y'all had tears and sympathy for that one article that claimed to be written by a trans woman about how she "couldnt accept herself as an inferior" and felt like "her gender was a pass at her fellow man" and other horrifically mysognistic shit. Y'all were crying for her about how she had so far to come and all that shit only to go dead silent when it was outed, as I immediately clocked from the language used, to just have been written by a cis man incel on 4chan lieing to encourage transmysogny and transphobia only to out all of you as totally ok with horrific rape blaming anti abortion slut shaming mysogny as long as it's coming out of the mouth of a perceived transfem. As a transfem, that's fucking worrying. That's horrific.

Trans women struggle with mysogny towards cis women and even transphobicly towards Transmascs and y'all don't say shit. 🤷🏽

I go to university in Canada, my dorm's house council puts on a showing of the rocky horror picture show every year over Halloween. In a feedback survey they emailed to the residents I wrote in a text box at the end that I wish they wouldn't screen it cause it's transmysognystic. A couple days later the president of the house council personally emails me a wall of paragraphs to explain that they were going ahead with it and all the reasons it was okay, as well as a couple of random lies for good measure. I am the only out trans woman living on campus 👹

Lgbt organization: hey this sign is transphobic

Woman: what it's not transphobic, I am just a transphobia motivated purely by transphobic reasons to put it up

An advertising company has removed a poster after saying it was "unaware" of its customer's "motive".

I Am A Transwoman. I Am In The Closet. I Am Not Coming Out.

NOTE: Wow, I wrote this piece anonymously and privately and did not intend for anyone else to actually read it. It was a way for me to vent…

This is a very, very good personal essay, one that I would encourage cis allies and especially cis feminists to read. It’s a good caution against absolutism, and losing sight of doing good when trying to do good.

Reading this makes me sad that I cannot personally thank the author for exposing so much of their hurt to say the words I needed to hear.

Okay so this doesnt show my views just a curious conversation starter.

I was having a conversation with my mother and sister about sapiosexuality and ableism, and how sapiosexuality is viewed by many as a form of ableism and/or misogyny, in that the social construct of intelligence caters to certain demographics, or, more specifically, the white male. This moved into: is it bad to have certain tastes when you look for people to be friends with or have relationships with? My mother and sister both agreed that prefering certain people is imporant, because of our right to choice, and that not wanting to date someone that is mentally ill or disabled is not ableist because you may not have the financial or other means to support them, and that choosing someone because of race is perfectly alright. They also said that not wanting to date someone because they are trans (pre op) is fine, because you may not be attracted to their genitalia, which comes with any sexuality.

I would really appreciate opinions on this topic, and more in-depth looks at ableism, racism, and sexism and how this topic is affected by them.
