@vagaybond replied to your post “PSA to T(W)E(R)Fs”
TERFs are horrible and illogical and please stay safe when interacting with them. I've gotten death threats and stuff and lots of trans ppl (trans women mainly) get doxxed
Thanks for this sweetie, I’m definitely blocking anyone that’s aggressive. But I held off a little with blocking that other blog bc they were being fairly respectful compared to most terfs and they also ID as nonbinary, so that allowed me to explain my position a little better without causing me as much emotional grief. I also don’t feel like this person is likely to try to dox me, but who knows? Their followers could too, that’s the other thing?
Either way, I’ve clarified my point now and I’ve blocked the terf. I’ve also blocked any and all other terfs that are either reblogging from those folks or adding new hateful nonsense.
I think I have this under control, but I guess time will tell?
Actually, Many Trans Womyn Love Other Trans Womyn.

“Trans people are very invested in trying to force people outside the trans community to date them, particularly transwomen who insist that lesbians have to validate them and fuck them or whatever. Of course transwomen never seem to want to date other transwomen, a point which feminists have brought up many times in relation to this issue.“
I'm trans. I'm very disabled so I can't meet people. But my last girlfriend was another trans womon. It's not uncommon.
I’d kinda assumed trans-exclusionary feminists knew that many trans womyn love other trans womyn, but that they dismissed it as “autogynephilia.”
I don’t know if I can reply to the original blog post - I got an error message when I tried.
I don’t know how male privilege works for cis men - but it doesn’t work for trans womyn.
From personal experience:
I got to go camping, teachers took me seriously, and teachers didn’t hit on me that I’m aware of. So those are specific fragmentary privileges.
I got bullied, I got forced out of my first high school for complaining about the bullying, and I got beaten unconscious at my second high school. I learned to hate myself, before I learned to understand myself. Part of that was for being autistic, and part for being a trans womon. So those are specific and seemingly more substantial dis-privileges.
So when twefs rhetorically ask “Can someone who lived as a man, with all the privilege it entails, really lay claim to womanhood?” unless they’re talking about actual men or fake Goths, the question is wrong before any answer. And for some actual men it could still be wrong - I don’t know.

Transition isn’t about clothing.
Transition isn’t about clothing.
Transition isn’t about clothing.
But trans-exclusionary radfems (and trans-exclusionary libfems) used to claim that sex-role stereotypes, including stigmatization and criminalization of cross-dressing, push people into transition. So it’s disorienting when one seems to call for more stigmatization and re-criminalization:
“I believe that where the desired choice of clothing is not available in men’s clothing, males should be able to wear articles of clothing designed for females without fear of discrimination so long as there also exists a physiological need for such clothing. Cost is not not an allowable factor in determining availability. If it is made for men, by anyone, anywhere, it is available to males. If you can’t afford to buy it, as made for men, then make your own.“
And what is “physiologically necessary”?
In my experience, the “women’s” section contains pants which fit, but doesn’t contain pants which won’t trigger rashes due to spandex and/or polyester, and the “boys’” and “men’s” sections generally don’t contain pants which fit.
tbh it is really hard to find/make friends with other cis lesbians or bi women who aren’t like, obliviously cissexist or whose support of trans women isnt completely conditional
