You will never get me to accept that transfem characters being played by non-transfem people, especially men, is anything other than transmisogynistic and not in any possible way "good representation." It's not representation of us at all! There aren't any transfems there!

I will never shut up about this, and I know history will vindicate me. And I also know that when that day comes all of you that currently tell me I'm wrong will claim that you always agreed with me.

> Tumblr famously intentionally false flags any and all posts by and about trans women as explict

translation: i fucking hate trans women specifically but i cant say that so ima say essentially "males" except slyly make it obvious i dont mean cis men at all. teehee!!!

this the typa wording yall gotta be looking out for - TERFs will try to bend shit but the core message remains the same

[posthumousprincessparts]

i just want a transfem story where she's transfem the whole time and not just at the end

[xenestrogen]

oh. oh thats just gore of a dead man’s head popped open like a cherry with the caption “all trans and fags should die like this and go to hell”

what it is like being on tumblr.com actually

[mousidy]

so how much more do trans women need to show you about what we go through before you stop rolling your eyes when we say we face misogyny

[mousidy]

we face misogynistic patterns of abuse, discrimination, and oppression, intertwined with and amplified by transphobia. and then, beaten down, when we seek community with others who face these things, we are laughed off as the jokes we've always been told we are

[mousidy]

pale imitations of womanhood

when we are raped, it is a pale imitation of real rape

when we are abused by our partners, it is a pale imitation of real domestic abuse

when we are punished for our failures to meet patriarchal standards of womanhood, it's a pale imitation of the same thing happening to cis women

when we grieve our inability to give birth, it is a pale imitation of the grief of cis women who cannot give birth

when we face violence and murder at incredibly high rates, when we are threatened and catcalled and harassed by men in public, our fear is a pale imitation of that of cis women

when we are paid the lowest wages of any gender demographic, it is a pale imitation of the smaller wage gap faced by cis women

our suffering is a pale imitation of real suffering

what jokes we are

[mousidy]

to be vulnerable for a second. it's painful. I want it to be ok but it isn't ok. I hope things start to get better if we keep working to make them better. I want my sisters to be ok

[mousidy]

I want my sisters to be ok

"this post contains potentially mature content" and its... a dirty joke... a bloody scene from an action movie... tasteful nudity... sometimes none of these even... and of course a regular fully clothed transgender woman... i dont think i could ever hate christians enough

“I just need to learn how to seem more normal and they’ll leave me alone,” she thought, lacking any ability to understand why the boys they said were her peers seemed to hate her from the moment they met her

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

Patriarchal society teaches boys to hate girls and believe it or not being a girl involuntarily sorted into boys spaces can very often mean being seen as an acceptable (and even deserving) target for that prejudice

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

“Hello yes the boys you keep forcing me to be around keep attacking me on sight and the girls I find myself relating to and drifting towards have already learned that ‘boys’ are dangerous, which I don’t disagree with, but as a result they’re keeping their distance out of fear that I’m the exact sort of predator I’m trying to find refuge from, may I have some basic human kindness and connection, please?”

“That’s extremely selfish of you have you considered that maybe you deserve to be abused?”

“I had not! I’ll just internalize that now since it’s the only consistent message that anyone is sending”

[biblicallyaccuratemoth]

I literally cannot stress enough the constant societal forces that work 24/7 to make even an unrealized trans girl think that her existence is fundamentally wrong and she deserves to be punished for it

Before I knew it was about gender I still knew that there was something ‘defective’ about me that justified the bullying and the harassment and the total lack of empathy from the people who billed themselves as figures of authority

white europeans calling race an "american construct" when their ancestors invented it to justify chattel slavery always makes me feel insane

[viviprotrudes]

"I will never swim again until and unless I get surgery."

"This is why I try so hard to protect my trans sister, she has to deal with so much of this all of the time."

"And this is why I will never learn how to swim"

"I never go swimming, unless it's an event that explicitely mention that Trans Women are welcome"

And other such tags I am vaguely paraphrasing are ones I have had the horror of reading on my post. The trans girls are not swimming. It feels like there is a hole in my body where my heart should be, through which all my blood is pouring. I can't.

[viviprotrudes]

This is just the tiniest fucking window into how transmisogyny affect people. This is about a space that was held by trans people and for trans people where the transphobia targeting a transfeminine person was prioritized over everything else.

[viviprotrudes]

If anyone doesn't believe how badly transfems want to swim and how badly they fucking don't get to, don't feel/aren't safe enough to do so, whatever the fuck else, just look at the comments and tags. I thought there were already too many for it to be random on a post with, at this time, about ten times the reach of this one hereabove.

And yet I have ten times as many tags and comments on this here post about trans women and transfems not swimming. Heartbroken doesn't fucking cover it. I am trying to stay sane in the face of this but I am seriously not doing a great job at it. Fucking hell.

[estrogenesis-vaporeongelion]

i miss swimming.

[xenestrogen]

i miss swimming..

Trans men having male privilege doesn't mean trans men dont experience transphobia. It doesn't mean we don't experience oppression at all. it just means that we can leverage our position over trans women and get away with it. We can destroy their lives and face 0 repercussions. It means if it comes between a trans man's word and a trans woman's word, he is more likely to be believed. If you're a feminist this should anger you and you should work to make sure that you're aware of this and never do it. If this makes you defensive, you're probably already doing it. Fix your heart.
