“Transandrophobia/transmisandry/whatever isn’t real because the root words imply blah blah” is the same energy as “homophobia means you have a phobia of gays and I don’t so I’m not homophobic” like armchair gender philosopher Pedanticles over here trying to dictionary their way out of a phenomenon that people just put a name to for like the fourth time because the Latin Roots aren’t good enough and also is a transphobic asshole
you cannot treat groups of people badly because you had a bad experience with a specific person. am I making sense. I feel a little crazy every time I have to explain that everyone you meet ever is a human being with a right to exist in public whether you think men are scary or whatever the problem is
"all of these women made men uncomfortable" and the first picture being JAMES BARRY???
i cant fucking take it anymore. making it look like a "gotcha" moment is terrible.
and then when some people pointed out the mistake one random person would go trying to prove otherwise??
why does this one person care so fucking much and comment to different people the same shit?? this is why i hate tiktok comments.
Couldn't find a source on this that wasn't misgendering him...which is telling....
But it looks like he was just taking the opportunities that were accessible to him at the time when he wanted to leave the military. Many trans men end up trading off being misgendered and going back in the closet in order to get education and employment, which doesn't invalidate their gender identity. He didn't have other options for longterm security.
I remember watching a YouTube short about James Barry and the person predictably misgendered him in favour of calling him a “woman who dressed up as a man to escape the patriarchy” and there was only like one or two comments (including myself) pointing out that he was a trans man, buried under thousands of other comments being like “wow it’s so sad what lengths women had to go through in those days 😔”
No, what’s sad is that James Barry explicitly asked for his body to not be autopsied so that he could always be seen as a man even after death, and those wishes were completely ignored and now hundreds of years later fuck ass tiktokers are insisting to millions of people that he was actually a woman. We’re not respected in life and we’re not respected in fucking death either.
I found this article the other day in reference to trans erasure after death because I was thinking about how common it is for transmascs to be posthumously detransitioned.
The way people are accounted for and processed after death in regard to sex and gender remains "in the Dark Ages" – often representing a los
"Where were transmascs during Stonewall?" Across the street throwing lit mattresses at cops and chanting "gay rights, gay rights, gay rights!" from the windows of the Women's House of Detention, asshole.
In his book The Women's House of Detention, Hugh Ryan writes about the New York City prison and the role it played in the gay rights movemen
Npr article on this
Also, famously at Stonewall?
seeing a lot of posts about not harassing the cast of the new anti-trans wizard show. wondering why the concern is with the cast and not. um. trans people
Anyway, I hope the hypothetical trans guy named Kai that everyone keep shitting on is having a fantastic day today <3
actually devastating that nintendo has to sell a console at 2x the price to make a working joystick. and if the $70+ per game wasn't a deal breaker (it is) paying any amount (PER GAME!!) for backwards compatibility sure is. if someone was writing a story about greed in a child-targeted game system and came up with this I would tell them to tone it down for believabilitly.
some of you are only interested in intersectionality insofar as you can feel righteous about it
the way white queers ascribe sainthood to Black trans women and completely ignore Black trans men and Black nonbinary people has convinced me more than anything else that they really truly don’t care about any Black trans people beyond wearing us as a little badge they can show off to prove they’re The Good Ones
the average person has one boob and one testicle. so you should assume everyone you pass by has that setup
some of yall really be out here like "it's so misogynist for trans men to get SA'ed so much they're doing it for attention" you're making me believe in hell
"trans men don't contribute to trans culture" have you considered that up until Horrifically Recently that women/trans men were lobotomized and thrown into insane asylums to never see the light of day again if they were anything but docile little cishet barbies? and that those things still happen around the world? or are you so brainrotten by 4chan you forget misogyny is still an issue?
“There are no domestic abuse resources for trans men. Even though we experience at least as much violence and trauma as cisgender women, it’
This is an older article (2019), but a necessary read for trans people and allies, in my opinion.

EDIT: Hey y'all, I know we all grieve differently, and some of that is through humor/sarcasm. If you wanna be snarky and sarcastic, please use tone indicators in the comments. I've already had one blow-up with someone who meant for a comment to be sarcastic, and I don't want that to happen to another person.

Also, stone wall started because a trans man was literally getting harrassment from a cop, which almost NEVER gets brought up, EVER. Its started BY trans people, FOR trans people. Its a crucial detail that never gets brought up, the fact that stone wall isnt just poc trans woman "owning a cop" but infact, defending a transman from a cop.
Trans woman, defending a trans man, stepping up for and advocating violently in defense of a trans man in face of the cop giving said man greif.

hate people wanting to shut down conversations about transandrophobia say that trans men and mascs "measurably" experience less violence than trans women and fems
one of the core aspects of transandrophobia is erasure. the rates of violence we face cannot be "measurably" different than anything, because the rates of violence we face are deliberately not measured and erased whenever posssible
a trans man is murdered. his death is reported as the death of a woman. he enters statistic of violence against women
a trans man is raped. attacked. assaulted. he files a police report. they log it as an assault against a woman. he enters the statistic of violence against women
a trans man is forced to detransition to access a shelter when fleeing from a domestic abuser. he enters the statistic of homeless women. he enters the statistic of violence against women
a trans man is denied access to an abortion. he attempts a back-alley procedure to avoid being forced off of testosterone. he dies from complications. it is a woman's death. he enters the statistic of dead women
a trans man dies
he is put on a list of dead women
the list of dead trans men does not grow
we do not enter the statistic of dead trans men
trans men face violence at measurably lower rates than —
as measured, trans men face lower rates of violence than —
the violence has roots in the measurement, too
i wish people understood that if i (nonbinary, transmasc) went to the police for an attack, i would NEVER out myself unless the situation was absolutely necessary. many police hate queers and outing myself makes the situation worse. i would imagine many other trans men and nonbinary people would think the same as me.
if anyone who i am not friends with found me dead from a transphobic attack, they wouldnt tell the police i was nonbinary ans this was a transphobic attack, theyd say i was a woman (because according to them i am one). again, id imagine this to be the same for others like me.
a lot of people only know what trans women are (hypervisibility in media), but dont know what nonbinary people or trans men are (hypovisibility and erasure). please understand this before you talk about statistics. many stats are unreliable because of this.
