excerpts from erin in the morning's article on the ioc's ban on transgender women and sex testing policy
Two things this website hates and that’s women and gay people who are gay in the “I have sex with other gay people” way and not some sort of thinly defined yearning and homophobic joke based system largely applied to brothers and male coworkers in early 2000s television shows. Three things this website hates actually sorry silly me but this website does hate black people.
people love to pretend rap is THE misogyny genre and that for some mysterious reason, it’s the ONLY genre defined by its misogyny. and, in fact, it’s PRAXIS to hate rap and never listen to it. how very interesting! i wonder what that reason could be! can any of YOU imagine what that reason may be? 🤔
There's always a moment of intense cultural whiplash whenever I realize I'm talking to someone who thinks "legal" and "illegal" are meaningful categories and ascribes innate goodness to following the law. It's like meeting a space alien.
"we need more amab nonbinary characters" "we need more afab nonbinary characters" i think we need more nonbinary characters y'all dont immediately scramble to shove into the socially-acceptable binary of your choice. personally.
just go find a drug dealer bro. just go take some unregulated street drugs. its just a felony no big deal why are you being such a pussy about it. it's not like testosterone has any medical effects on your body that might interact with other medical conditions or medications or anything that might need to be monitered. you're just making up problems at this point
get peer approved
"Theyfab" isn't a slur, silly! It's only a disparaging, insulting term I call a minority I don't like, irrationally blame for all my problems and make death and rape threats toward. Why would you think it's a slur?
the reason I'm so very certain that I'm on the right side of history is that I've seen this pattern play out several times by now
remember ace discourse? remember how people got really comfortable just openly mocking ace people, saying they were all homophobic, claiming they weren't really lgbt...
if you remember how poorly ace discourse aged, look at how transmascs are being treated right now and tell me it's not the exact same phenomenon
just.
it isn't? when was that decided? were any nonbinary people consulted? where's the council o Trve Trannies that decides which gendered axes are worth discussing & which aren't? can we let various world powers & medical professionals & cops know about this update? I don't think they got the memo.

choosing to play oppression olympics isnt just mean and inconsiderate. like I feel when you call ppl out for it theyre like "does it hurt your feelings that I said your privileged?" like no you are actually doing some serious damage to your own cause
like the recent estrogen legislation. estrogen should never be made a controlled substance. everyone should have easy access to gender affirming care, including DIY. but when people try to spread awareness for this serious issue by acting like trans men arent as affected by institutional transphobia, it just becomes an argument about disinformation, because testosterone is ALREADY a controlled substance. I want estrogen to remain an uncontrolled substance because I want to save trans women from the bullshit than trans men have been having to deal with for over 30 years. and then you have a bunch of people arguing about this bullshit with each other while the law just plods on thru the government and everyone loses.
recently I saw a person talking about the recent, tragic murder of Juniper Blessing. but instead of honoring her memory, this person said that trans men dont experience the same danger. and of course that caused people to bring up the also very recent murder of Luca Redbeard. Both these violent hate crimes and murders happened THIS MONTH and it makes me sick that the trans community cant even honor their memories properly because theyre too up their own asses arguing about who has privilege and social power over the other, instead of seeing that we are all living the same fucking nightmare
This kind of response to things I say about sex work, which isn't always phrased like this but almost always focuses on me being male or a man or my pronouns, shows a fundamental misunderstanding of why mansplaining is bad.
I am a sex worker. I have been for a decade. The majority of people I know are sex workers and I'm embedded in sex worker community. I started before 18 and have done it in brothels, cars, my own home, clients' homes, saunas, and hotels.
It's absolutely reasonable to criticize men who speak on issues they don't experience like an authority, especially when they speak over women to do it. It is not reasonable to raise someone's gender (or in this case, pronouns) as a reason their thoughts aren't worth hearing when the issue is one they do face.
