People don't get that non passing trans women are not seen as men, they are seen as non passing trans women and are treated the way they are according to the social script for trans women, which is transmisogyny.

Using AFAB and AMAB as replacements for female and male is so insidious. Trying to do progressive biological essentialism and transmisogyny lol

[cyberpunkpavlichenko]

Black Feminism already settled the question of assuming a universal female sexed experience, as that would assume that universality as white, and you’re doing a similar thing by assuming a universal female sexed experience on the basis of being AFAB as if everyone who is AFAB which includes trans people has the same relationship to gender and that trans women don’t have this “female” experience despite being mistreated for being women.

Like you’re doing a similar move that was called racist by the Combahee River Collective decades ago. There is no universal sexed experience, there’s nothing that ties cis women to trans men.

Bisexuals don’t have straight privilege because bisexual people aren’t straight. To make this argument is to argue that trans men aren’t really men. Why are y’all sooooo desperate to invalidate your own gender just to argue that you have Super Special Baby Boy Oppression. It’s embarrassing

While fat is frequently used to insult people of all sizes, many fat activists--those of us who are undeniably, indubitably fat by any measure--reclaim the term as an objective adjective to describe our bodies, like tall or short. It is used accordingly in a matter-of-fact way throughout the pages ahead. Fat stands in contrast to an endless parade of euphemism--fluffy, curvy, big guy, big girl, zaftig, big boned, husky, voluptuous, thick, heavy set, pleasantly plump, chubby, cuddly, more to love, overweight, obese--all of which just serve as a reminder of how terrified so many thin people are to see our bodies, name them, have them.

Fat hasn't become a bad word because fatness is somehow inherently undesirable or bad--it has fallen out of public favor because of what we attach to it. We take fat to mean unlovable, unwanted, unattractive, unintelligent, unhealthy. But fatness itself is simply one aspect of our bodies--and a very small part of who each of us is. It deserves to be described as a simple and unimportant fact.

I think the thing transandro bros fundamentally do not understand is that, our worst case scenario as trans men is being seen as ugly weird women. And yeah that sucks. But trans women’s worst case scenario isn’t being seen as men. They are never viewed or treated as cis men are. Their worst case scenario is that they are completely unpersoned.

Reversing that, a trans man’s best case scenario is being perceived and treated as a cis man. Which is to say, receiving an immense amount of privilege. A trans woman’s best case scenario is being treated as a cis woman, and facing the brunt of all the misogyny implied there within.

Of trans men and trans women, only one group ever gets the privilege of being seen as men and navigating through the world that way. Not all trans men get that. But trans men never get unpersoned the way trans women do on the basis of gender.

In the narratives of transphobes, trans men are never the perpetrators, never the problem. We are always victims of “the trans cult,” autistic women lead astray. Think of Irreversible Damage, of their obsession with our reproductive organs. This narrative is awful. It is dangerous. But it is just flat out not what trans women get stuck with.

Trans women are stuck being called groomers and rapists and too strong for sports while simultaneously, because transphobes are fascists, framed as pathetic effete weak unpersons that they want to enact physical, sexual, and structural violence against under the belief that they cannot fight back. Because fascists paint their enemies as unfathomably strong and pathetically weak at the same time.
