Hi, you can call me Vern.

I identified as transmasc non binary from 11-19 and was fully detransitioned by the time I was 20.

I'm still figuring out what gender means, where I fit, what it means to be female, etc etc.

I've got sexual trauma, dysphoria, and a set of general perversions I'm still trying to unravel and contextualize.

DMs and askbox open, would love to talk to anyone about their thoughts and experiences.

“FEMALE”

patti smith, 1967

[lobotomy-lady]

The tags on this post are a microcosm of the effect (total decimation) that trans activism has had on female class consciousness in recent years

Most of these people probably would describe themselves as feminists, yet this poem has gone completely over their heads bc they're looking at it solely through the framework of gender identity.

Patti is describing the horror of going through puberty as a girl in such visceral detail-watching helplessly as your individuality is stripped away by society & in its place the role of "sexual object/baby factory" is thrust upon you. You're aware that the worlds perception of you as a human being has been irrevocably altered by your new status as a Woman. There is nothing you can do about it, you have no say in the matter. You direct your indignant rage towards your female body rather than where it belongs, with men and the social structure that they have built off of your dehumanization. In a world devoid of patriarchy, would Patti (or any young girl) see her sexual maturation & reproductive capability as something so degrading, humiliating, & shameful? No.

This is a poem about misogyny & how young girls internalize it & weaponize it against themselves...and you're pathologizing it. I mean, HOW does someone read this and go "oh, this young girl hates that her entire existence is being reduced down to just an orifice for men to use? yep, this means she must be a MAN inside! a real woman would enjoy the process of female socialization because real women understand that they aren't fully human & they enjoy it <3 and that's why I'm trans!" No, actually. You aren't unique. Neither is Patti. Almost all of us feel like crawling out of our skin during puberty for the exact reasons she described. It's not a symptom of dysphoria, it's a reasonable reaction to rampant societal misogyny.

You just don't get it.

The idea that male and female do not present as two neutral, equal human variations, but that there is some default, sexless human body is worrying. The idea that sex is composed of a series of parts that we can refigure at will. The idea that before puberty, we are sexless and able to be molded. The idea that natural puberty is as unnatural and irreversible as a synthetic one. This idea is deeply anti-human- how is no one seeing this??

I don’t think transgender people themselves should be called gross, or mutilated or monsters, I do not think transitioning itself somehow ruins someone, I am not talking about them or their bodies, but the ideology. How are people not realizing how pseudoscientific and hateful this rhetoric is becoming? The idea that sex is a series of parts, that somehow we are naturally sexless, that our bodies are not complete and connected wholes, is increasingly becoming part of the transgender movements rhetoric? The body as parts. People with utererus, people with prostates, people with penises. We are all just a series of commodities, to be bought and sold, our human bodies are the enemy, our male and female forms are aberrations, mistakes that were forced on our sexless default. We exist beyond our body. We are more than our body. To define ourself by our body is reductive, dehumanizing. And, of course, the biggest voice against this currently is right-wing, but not because of their pro-human stance, because they think that our bodies belong to god. They were the ones who got us here in the first place! The idea that our bodies aren’t ‘us’ but are merely limitations, the idea that the female body in particular is grotesque, only for breeding, bleeding, serving, penetrating. I’m scared at how further this is going to go.

Is Neil Cicierega aware that a good portion of his fanbase are teenage girls sexually skinwalking him

I think this is a big reason why TRAs are so desperate to shut down detransitioners. Seeing public detransitioners can cause people who are currently trans identified people to start to question the ideology. And this whole ideology is such a house of cards that once you start to think about it critically it's only a matter of time until it falls apart.
