hey boss, good to see ya. yeah i’m doing okay, except the government has people working around the clock trying to come up with a legal defense for executing me and my lovers in the streets, and like once a week i check the news and some legal protection we used to have has been rolled back or some Black trans woman has been jailed for self defense or some lady with more money than seems possible is personally funding a hate campaign against me and then every single day i have to log onto this stupid fucking laptop and look at my emails and as though it’s not bad enough, you have the audacity to call me a man? as though that doesn’t make you, in some way, complicit in all of this? as though failure to respect transsexuals doesn’t make you complicit in the cultural backlash against us? as though you feel really really really safe and confident that there’s not a level of upset i could get where you’re the straw that breaks the camels back and i slit my wrists in front of you?

Suddenly struck with a need to explain to you how boat pronouns work (I work in the marine industry).

When you're talking about the design of the boat, you say "it".

When the boat is still being built, your say "it".

When the boat is nearing completion, you can say "it" or "she".

When the boat is floating in the water you probably say "she", unless there is still a lot of work to be done (e.g. no engine yet) then you say "it".

When the boat is officially launched and operating, you say "she". If you continue to say "it" at this point you are not incorrect but suspiciously untraditional. You are not playing the game.

If you are referring to a boat you don't really know anything about you may say "it" ("there's a big boat, it's coming this way"). But if you know its name, it's probably "she" ("there's the Waverley, she's on her way to Greenock").

If you are talking about boats in general, you say "it" ("when a boat is hit by a wave it heels over")

If you speak about a boat in complimentary terms, it's "she" ("she's a grand boat"). If you are being disparaging it may be it, but not necessarily ("it's as ugly as sin", "she's a grotty old tub").

If she has a boy's name, she's still she. "Boy James", "King Edward", "Sir David Attenborough"? The pronoun is she.

If it's a dumb barge (no engine), you say it. But if it's a rowing boat (no engine), you say she.

I hope this has cleared things up so that you may not be in danger of misgendering floating objects.

as a tme person with a transfeminine sister it is extremely clear to me that we absolutely do not have an equivalent experience.

she did not experience "male socialization." when i look back on our childhood, it is easy to understand that there was no privilege to that concept. she was forced to try and shrink herself into the shape of a man, and was abused when she didn't succeed at playing the part. being "raised as a boy" only highlighted the stark incongruity between what was expected of her and what she was. this repeatedly led to her facing violence.

and to be clear i genuinely don't care if you think a rude comment from an exasperated trans woman online is as equally bad as the literal risk of her being murdered when she walks outside. this is not a competition, being the most visible is not a prize. i genuinely fear for my sister's life.

when people treat trans women's breasts as if they aren't real breasts and when they treat our vaginas as if they aren't real vaginas they are contributing to the idea that when we are raped it isn't really rape

The Amnesty International report that JK Rowling is trying to censor through legal threats.

It can also be found on Google Drive here and on Bluesky here.

[cbarc]

Please save and share this info where possible. This report has since been removed by Amnesty International due to legal threats of libel from JK Rowling. This information is no longer easily accessible.

not willing to risk doing an image description, sorry y'all

all the times i've said illiteracy is helping fash?

and that plenty of you are, in fact, functionally illiterate?

and that the corrupt state helped you along to this condition on purpose?

the nonzero number of notes from people who did not instantly clock this comic as an allegory: behold.

when you have no idea what a door is, or what a key is, or what glasses are, then you are effectively identical to this clean-faced dude.

and fash absolutely loves what you're doing with the place. sitting there not asking questions, or looking things up, or paying attention to context.

the authoritarian state thrives on a diet of such clowns.

sex criminal j k rowling bullies amnesty international into retracting unbiased report about genocidal risks, after paying for the manufacture of a scottish devolution crisis over the same issue

[pocket-deer-belly]

transmisogyny genuinely does start eroding your ability to understand extremely basic ideas about feminism, like "outfits are not consent" and "men materially benefit from patriarchy even if they are underprivileged in other areas". you need to actually listen to trans women who point out transmisogynist behavior or you will become jk rowling.

Why is it that I type trans men on Tumblr. I only see pics of Trans women under the same tag? I'm a trans man

i don't know what the fuck you want me to say to this. I don't go in tags. I don't post in tags. I don't pay attention to how tags work on this site. I think you might be looking in the wrong places. Why don't you ask other trans men where you can find pictures of them, instead of asking me. a trans woman. why you aren't seeing trans men. i am not the entire website of tumblr. i'm one fuckin' blog.

[analogdelight]

seems to be a consensus

[manu-script]

the recent trend to hate on argentina and to characterize doing so as woke has allowed many first worlders to show their true colors. as soon as you all seem to get the 'green light' that hating on a third world country is acceptable you stop hiding your disdain and xenophobia. this and the "calling ice" jokes show you don't actually give two shits about racism or cheating or whatever, you just want a socially acceptable way to hate on latin americans

J.K. Rowling posting Upskirt shots of trans women makes clear what we've always known.

Rowling believes that she has a right to commit sexual violence against women she believes don't deserve rights or safety.

Her response to receiving criticism on posting said upskirt was to essentially argue that the trans woman had it coming and as was basically asking for it because of what she was wearing.

There is no daylight between Rowling and the average shitheel rapist.
