I remember when I was younger, anytime I watched a movie where the characters have to kill a scary monster/alien, I always thought the act of killing it was intended to be part of the horror. Like there’s this amazing creature that we’ve never seen before, and maybe under different circumstances we could’ve coexisted with it, but it’s trying to attack you and you have to defend yourself, but by destroying it you also destroy the ability to ever understand it and that’s sad and is supposed to make you feel conflicted.
It was not until well into my adulthood that I realized most people do not have complicated feelings about movies where people have to kill a scary alien monster, nor is that necessarily meant to be part of the narrative (unless it very obviously is). They just want the scary thing to die because it’s scary. I don’t have a real conclusion to this I just started thinking about it for some reason.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.
when i say “aros can still date” i mean that as in “aros can do whatever the fuck they want and it doesn’t have to make sense to you”
but some of y’all say “aros can still date” to mean “aros are still able to fit your standards of an acceptable person despite their abnormality” and i do not fuck with that
Is this transandrophobia?
1. I'm generally uncomfortable when trans men try and discuss the concept of intersectionality when it comes towards them and claim that manhood and transness are a noteworthy intersection. I still struggle to see how being a man specifically changes things. I more so see the oppression as coming from the fact that they're forced into specifically being seen as or wanted to be forced to be women/girls. And that's a form of misogyny. All of what specifically affects trans men can be tied back in part to misogyny or other aspects like racism, broader transphobia, or similar. This isn't to say they don't experience unique things but that it doesn't come from a mystical place of "misandry" which is a concept that has no true backing as all patriarchal oppression of men is actually inherently misogynistic.
2. I still don't really understand how trans men are meaningfully impacted by transmisogyny on a large enough scale to claim that transmisogyny is a trans issue and not primarily a transfem and trans women's issue. The same way I don't understand how trans women are meaningfully impacted by transandrophobia to claim to be nearly as affected as trans men and mascs.
3. I firmly believe that *stealth* white passing trans men have male privilege that is not the same as a cis man's but far more firm than a trans woman can ever achieve outside of boymoding which is worse for the transfem because in that case she would be getting misgendered meanwhile he (the theoretical transmasc) would be getting gendered correctly.
4. I feel like it's very common for trans masculine people to feel threatened when confronted with ways they do hold privilege over transfems and trans women. I also feel it is common for transfems and trans women to feel threatened when confronted with ways they do hold privilege over transmascs and trans men. We have very different experiences and the ability to be relatively safer from one form allows for a semblance of privilege.

Yes, this is transandrophobia.

The intersectionality isn't just manhood and transness. Its atypical manhood and transness.
Not all of our issues come from being viewed as female. Let me paint you a few specific scenarios that are SPECIFICALLY about being a man:
1- Masculine genderqueers/sexqueers are treated as disgusting scary predators. Our headmate Arwen, who is a trans man, had to listen to people in a queer youth group discussing how much they hate masculinity and how toxic masculinity is. All the transmascs were sitting awkwardly in the sidelines, being made to feel as though their identity is evil. Additional example of this can be seen from this person [link] (disclaimer: the mod of this-is-transandrophobia is anti-endo, I do not support that account, I'm only linking to it specifically for the anon's experience.)
Not to mention the very common "I'd cross the street if I saw you, you look so scary!!!" as an attempt to "affirm" a masc's gender. This basically tells trans men that they are monsters and predators that should detransition.
2- Trans men and intersex men with mullerian ducts are told that they cannot talk about uteruses, ovaries, or anything related to them because they are men. They are told that it "doesnt matter" if they have these organs, because it is not a "male issue" and are told they are "nitpicking" when they say its not women-exclusive healthcare.
3- People regularly mock phalloplasties and top surgery scars, and say that testosterone makes queer mascs "aggressive", "dangerous", and "ugly."
There are many other examples, but those are the first three that come to mind which are focused on being viewed as man, not being viewed as a woman.
This isn't to say they don't experience unique things but that it doesn't come from a mystical place of "misandry" which is a concept that has no true backing as all patriarchal oppression of men is actually inherently misogynistic.
Misandry is a term that was bastardized by incels and anti-feminists. I agree that the way it has been used is meaningless. However, anti-masculinity does exist. Look at black men, for example, who are bastardized in unique ways due to being black men. The way they are treated is different than how black women are treated, because of their masculinity.
Same for disabled men. How many neurodivergent men are deemed as predators simply for having non-typical traits while masculine? How many neurodivergent men are arrested for "suspicious behavior"?
I really recommend you look at the experiences of marginalized men and try to set aside your pre-conceived biases based on how the term "misandry" was misused.
I still don't really understand how trans men are meaningfully impacted by transmisogyny on a large enough scale to claim that transmisogyny is a trans issue and not primarily a transfem and trans women's issue. The same way I don't understand how trans women are meaningfully impacted by transandrophobia to claim to be nearly as affected as trans men and mascs.
Transmisogyny affects transmascs because transphobes often cannot tell which direction a person is transitioning. Same goes for why transandrophobia affects transfems.
I firmly believe that *stealth* white passing trans men have male privilege that is not the same as a cis man's but far more firm than a trans woman can ever achieve outside of boymoding which is worse for the transfem because in that case she would be getting misgendered meanwhile he (the theoretical transmasc) would be getting gendered correctly.
Your theoretical trans man is irrelevant to the discussion because they rarely ever exist, however, lets explore this for a minute.
A stealth white passing trans man often will feel completely isolated from the queer community (due to previously mentioned hostility towards masculinity), and also terrified of being outed as trans by anyone around them. They still have a history, after all, family or old acquaintances/peers who knew them pre-transition, and - even if they moved far away - could out them through online forums.
And you don't take into account that medical professionals are still going to know they are trans, on the basis of medical history, and they are still at risk of medical discrimination because of it.
"Stealth" could mean a lot of things. Do you mean a trans man who is SPETE [link], who has had the mullerian duct removed, had a (perinormative-passing) penis added, and been on androgenizing HRT? Or do you mean a trans man who is SPETE that just happens to hide their transness?
Because if its the former, this trans man who is SPETE could have their testosterone taken away at any point (due to it being a controlled substance), and thus face serious health issues. Not to mention that if any of their scars from surgery (ie; potential top surgery scars, potential phalloplasty scars, etc) get exposed, they will be outed.
If its the latter, a trans man who is SPETE could still have the previously discussed reproductive rights issues if they haven't gotten their reproductive duct removed. They could also have a vulva or atypical genitalia (ie; clitoromegaly from HRT, a vagina-preserving phalloplasty, a metoidioplasty that gives them a small phallus, etc), and thus be at risk of outing on that basis, and still be in danger when going into men's restrooms.
I feel like it's very common for trans masculine people to feel threatened when confronted with ways they do hold privilege over transfems and trans women. I also feel it is common for transfems and trans women to feel threatened when confronted with ways they do hold privilege over transmascs and trans men. We have very different experiences and the ability to be relatively safer from one form allows for a semblance of privilege.
We do not hold privelege over transfems. We feel threatened when told that we do because it is not the case. Transitioning for us has the same medical and social issues. We are not very different from each other. The only "privilege" we have is in a hyperspecific scenario that - with one simple glance at a medical file, or having medical care taken away from us, or a person we knew pre-transition exposing us, or a look at our scars and/or genitals, or even just sitting down in a bathroom to pee with the "wrong" genitals - could be stripped away in a second.
I think it's an issue to try and make one trans group out to be more priveleged than the others. I think its a massive waste of time, if anything, to be having these debates, when we could be uplifting each others voices instead.
you were born in 2006? what are you? a Honda Civic?
can i fucking help you?
DELTARUNE RIGHT NOW???
COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This pride month, and any other month, remember not to assume that all transfems are transandrophobic because of a few shitty ones.
Likewise, also don't assume that all trans men are transmisogynists just because a few are.
Don't assume that all binary trans people are exorsexist just because a few binary trans people are
And don't assume that all perisex people are intersexist because a few perisex people are.
And just don't assume that all trans people are whatever bigotry just because a few from that group are.
someday, we'll make it. Left Spamton belongs to @aubobbies , their comic really punched me so I had to make myself feel a little better. Maybe in another universe they'd find some comfort in solidarity.

i love these lines so much it's like one of the few times Tenna talks out of his stage persona character. hashtag his bitchiness. hashtag his passive aggression. do you think his internal monologue is like this
and then this one is from the bonus round board that got cut from chap 3. 🫵 SELF CENSORSHIP EVIDENCE
It's been just over a year since Deltarune chapters 3 & 4 released! I did the 3D work, which mostly means Tenna 📺 I figured it's been long enough to share some "behind the scenes" stuff, starting with a look at the Maya file for his static poses...
I'd individually render the poses to get that early 3D shine ✨ Here's some of them at their original resolutions! I would work from text descriptions from Toby, and sometimes there'd be a Paint sketch to help out. Gigi drew the concept that I modeled from and some poses too!
I had a lot of fun pushing myself to match the dynamic poses Toby had in mind for Tenna - making him so crazy and expressive was something I couldn't have done without his prompts. He'd draw the faces on afterward too, which really brought Tenna to life!
(lots more after the Read More cut...!)

hey boss i can't come in today it's a sunny day and there's a lovely breeze coming in through my window, yeah it's rustling the branches of the tree outside that's finally bloomed so it's pretty serious
the nintndo 3ds love each and every trans person.
