white, transmisogyny experiencer, north american, physically disabled, university student, exorsexism experiencer
very passionate about social justice & sociology, education is very important to me. if i get (non-debatable/non-controversial) details wrong, please correct me
stop using shinigami eyes as a be-all-end-all, its been used to unfairly target (non-discourse posting) intersex people since 2020
hot discourse opinions to get you hating me:
shinigami eyes is good in theory, bad in practice and has been co-opted by radfems (trans inclusive AND trans exclusive) in many internet spaces (but especially tumblr)
paraphile does not mean abuser. i can't control my attraction and its insane to attack ppl on that basis when youre queer
anti-censorship, anti-harassment, your ship is not my ship and thats okay, etc / anti-contact, pro-recovery
perisex people stop saying: futa, hermaphrodite, baeddel. Theyre Slurs.
tme/tma have connotation meanings that make me dislike them. i dont inherently hate the (discourse exclusive) term of "transmisogyny affected" but the way TMA is CURRENTLY being used puts a bad taste in my mouth and is often used in a way that discredits and erases nonbinary & intersex voices
anti-transmasculinity is very real
misandry as an axis of oppression is not
some transandrophobia supporters suck, and some transandrophobia deniers suck too. big shocker, theres variation and gray areas!
stop using intersex people as a Gotchya against transphobes
stop excluding intersex ppl from trans spaces
theres no such thing as a "bad" sexuality or gender. exclusion gets us nowhere
"TMRA" is a disgusting term, stop comparing trans men who want to have Rights to people who want to Genocide trans people
"theyfab" is minimum a discriminatory term. grow up and stop licking kalvin garrahs boots
Tumblr. Pure effervescent enrichment. Old internet energy. Home of the Reblogs. All the art you never knew you needed. All the fandoms you c
‘Hey followers, go harass this person I don’t like. But don’t worry, they have a similar name to my old blog and is a trans man, so it’s fine to bully them off the site’
God forbid people tag their kink
Teaboot doesn’t even really talk about transandrophobia, he just refuses to ignore his own experiences whenever he gets an ask about it.
I blocked you too so by your standards you’d be stalking me too, so lets not get into that
Ok before anything remember that this is the post she’s saying is “her attempted suicide”
i-suggest-therapy is now defunct and thus can not change the background image, nor are they provided the information that it’s an “attempted suicide” (I’d like to note how there is ZERO indication of this in the white post, and thus i-suggest-therapy could not have known.) anyway yes I’m doing good here, duh. You likely caused the death of two trans women, and constantly dodge saying anything about it when it’s brought up, so I’m sure that I’m on the good side here, simple as. Anyone browsing the isff tag sees you being racist as the top post, too, so maybe it’s time you change instead of double-downing all the time and playing pretend? Like, not being spiteful, and I know it’s unlikely you’ll listen since I’m one of the biggest hate accounts on you, but consider all the tags and replies condemning your behavior and maybe think that you’re in the wrong?
(candace flynn voice) mooooom isff is defending known actual known predators with multiple credible victims & who have no intent on ever changing & telling their abuse victims that theyre dangerous transmisogynists for not wanting to share space with a rapist againnnn
I’ve made plenty of vague-ish posts about it but you caught me at a time where I realized a specific bit sounds. Suspicious . With how isff has been treating her fans and what she’s been in support of recently
“I would not trust you, because you would turn on me in seconds.”
…what does that mean, ISFF? “You would turn on me in seconds” for numerous sexual assault allegations from multiple trans women? Are you afraid of something? All of this “even if that trans woman did all of that, still love and support her” stuff? And with all the rape apologia and how she makes the 2 suicides a pity party for herself? I’m suspicious.
breaking news: the white trans woman elevated as #the voice for transfeminism by an unaware yet disappointingly massive audience publicly discourages fellow trans women from speaking up about the sexual abuse they've experienced because, you know, you have to think of the poor rapist first! what if the woman who raped other women gets "socially exiled" and "functionally jailed" and "wrongfully" seen as dangerous. she just made a mistake you have to understand that :( think of the rapist's social life!
I guess isff has been back for a while now, I genuinely didn't know if she was it left again or what after her clone wars saga, but the new revelation is surprising to me nonetheless.
Like it SHOULDN'T BE. I should not be surprised that "protect pedos as LGBT" would now morph into "if a trans woman is accused of sexual assault, do not punish her."
The surprising part is that so many people just do not care. They see literally any accusation as a weapon used against trans people, nothing at all to do with their actions. I feel so sorry for people who believe this.
It's okay to be angry at people accused of crimes and it is okay to be uncomfortable and angry around people who defend them. That isn't bigoted it's just a human reaction. Crazy that anyone has to say this.
Okay look regardless of where one stands on the idea of transandrophobia, can we all at least agree that ISFF being comfortable with sharing a community with self-admitted pedophiles and serial abusers in the name of "caring for them as sisters" while writing off trans men as being too harmful to share communities with is really fucking weird? Yes, trans men are capable of being abusive and transmisogynistic. But to shun them all on the basis of the POTENTIAL harm they could cause while welcoming in confirmed abusers who have a track record of causing harm into her inner circle with open arms is not just hypocritical, it is DANGEROUS. Especially when she is painting anybody who speaks out against the abuse as dangerous, untrustworthy and no better than those that frequent websites that gleefully drive trans people to suicide. That is some cult shit.
yeah, especially with the way she was talking to leo-fie like she was a parent scolding their child or something. She actively wants to rope more trans women into this bullshit rhetoric and doesn't want any resistance
“A lot of marginalized people are put under unnecessary and biased scrutiny that means they will be punished for fallacious charges” and “posting about your pedo-incest fantasies loudly on a public forum violates terms of service so you have nobody to blame but yourself when you get banned.” Are two claims that need to coexist before we can do any kind of talk about internet censorship
i think if you are in a position of power and use that power to tell people that you see their every move and are going to do what you deem "appropriate reactions" to them breaking your personal preference rules in private spaces AND ALSO tell them you have spies watching them just in case they try to hide then that makes you a bad person
the reaction when someone is misogynistic to a cis woman: "wtf that's not ok you can't treat women like that"
the reaction when someone is misogynistic to a trans woman: "hahaha that's so funny, you're treating them- i mean her, like a woman. gender affirming misogyny am i right hahahaha"
I fear many of us are forgetting that trans men belong to Men (the gender) but not Men (the sociopolitical class) and I think thats an important distinction
Sociopolitical classes are the result of what is called "social stratification", which divides people into categories of "social worth" based on factors like sex assignment, gender presentation and identity, wealth, skin colour, physical and intellectual ability, country or culture of origin, religion, etc.
Those in the highest sociopolitical standing would be cis het monogamous men who are white, physically and mentally non-disabled, neurotypical, wealthy, and not immigrants. There are other factors, but this is essentially the top of the food chain.
The hierarchy isn't a single vertical ladder, but more like a pyramid. The more of these factors differ from the societal ideal, the lower in the pyramid you are placed. And your place in this pyramid determines your access to things like education, jobs, social programs, and also determines how authority figures that govern the system categorize you and treat you. ie black men are perceived as more dangerous and violent than white men, despite there being little to no empirical evidence for this.
So sociopolitical class Men is reserved for cisgender men, and transgender men are seen as trying to "claim" power the system deems them unentitled to. Not only do trans men not get access to this class, they are often further punished for trying to claim masculinity, particularly because queer masculinity is not accepted as "true masculinity" by the system. The argument that trans men receive privelege for identifying as men ignores this fact. Trans men are only afforded the sociopolitical class of men when they are assumed to be cis (which requires access to a full regimen of transition tools like Testosterone and surgery), which ignores and erases their identity as trans.
It also for the most part to excludes men of colour, disabled men, cis men who are gender-nonconforming, and men who otherwise do not fit into the patriarchal standard of cisgender masculinity. Even a man who fits the patriarchal ideal but rejects toxic masculinity and male superiority can be ejected from the dominant social class for non-conformity.
