The Thing About Internet Discourse Intellectuals That Will Really Rub Me The Wrong Way, Is They Will

People will really act like talia bhatt just has haters because she's a brown trans woman and not that she's an asshole who covers up her caste status, lashes out at random trans women who she thinks are slighting her, comes up with racist theories about how all genders from other cultures are just misgendered binary trans women with no input from queer people from those cultures, and lied about the existence of a cult and the harm of its survivors. It's just because miss radical feminism: trans flavor is all these minority identities.

Alright.

I'm gonna be completely honest here.

This feels racially motivated.

Because what do you mean by 'backgrounds'?????

Also (less bigotry more insanity)

How much time do you think I have?!

Assuming you also think I'm responsible for the confession blog mains, that means you think I'm responsible for

8 DIFFERENT FULL TIME BLOGS????

This is arguably wilder than the thicced-witch racefaking allegation.

Apparently, once they decided that i actually am a Iranian-Tajik person.

I AM NOW ALL ARAB AND SOUTH ASIAN TRANS PEOPLE????

i am cracking up why are y’all obsessed with calling jewish anarchists zionists (hint: it’s the antisemitism)

If you see a trans man speak up about his community in a discussion he has every right to be in, and your first instinct is to tell him he sounds like an MRA saying "What about men," then you are not an ally to trans men.

When you talk about trans history that impacted and impacts trans men, expect trans men to speak up about themselves. When you talk about reproductive justice, expect trans men to talk about themselves. When you talk about living under the patriarchy as a marginalized gender, expect trans men to speak up about themselves.

(I mean this in a very broad sense. Of course, when trans women are talking about things that are largely unique to them, bringing up trans men may not be the best way to engage with the conversation)

But anyway, the difference between Conservative MRA saying "What about men", and trans men voicing their experiences in conversations they are a part of (but have been forgotten in) is that MRA's purpose is to entirely ignore intersectional feminism. They want to say "Men have it bad too, so women need to stop complaining." They have no interest in a productive discussion that benefits themselves, and the women they are arguing with.

Trans men just want to be heard. We want to add to the conversation. We have a place in the conversation because we are a marginalized gender. We do not want to speak over anyone because our motivation is to not say "But we have it bad too, so stop complaining." Our motivation is to say "We have this same experience because we are a marginalized gender too."

If you can't distinguish between a trans man desperate to be listened to about his own issues for once, and cis men desperate to shut women up, then you need to reflect on your allyship

idk maybe the reason some people find genderfuckery so cringy/abhorrent in "tme"s or "theyfab"s or whatever term they're using today to reference transmascs is because it makes it harder to sniff out who is and who isnt a "cuntboy". heaven forbid they accidentally appreciate something a "zippertit"s wrote or painted, could you imagine how embarrassing it would be if they were found to be agreeing with a "transtrender"? the "tucutes" are not divulging their statuses as lesser transes, "tra"s dont experience real oppression like they do, there is something divine in their femininity that the "tif"s dont understand, etc, etc, etc.

its the same shit, different slurs, every time

imagine a politician that fight for equal payment, for women rights and protection, bodily autonomy and just because the politician did a pro trans policy this very same person is thrown under the bus and now is suddenly against women by the TERF crowd, even to a point of appealing to the conservatives against the pro trans law

I wasn't making shit up

This was 2022/23 Nicola Sturgeon hate campaign, TERFs all around britain were campaign against her because she was kinda pro trans, to a point of appealing to Rishi Sunak and the Tories themselves

When we say that TERFs would work with the right wing and throw any pro trans person under the bus, even the ones who are actually helping women, we aren't making shit up

They do

are you for fucking real

so you dont consider nonbinary people to be oppressed? since youre fucking comparing them to white people? jesus christ yall fucking suck

theyfab might not be on the level of a slur but its definitely still a pejorative aimed at a MINORITY group and reducing nonbinary people to their agab

yall are so far gone theres literally no point in talking to yall

Radical Feminism logic

misogyny:

calling people the name they want

males wanting to be feminine (imitating/mocking women)

males wanting to be women (invading safe spaces)

males wanting to be masculine (putting down women)

males wanting to be feminist (performative)

females wanting to be feminine (gives in to the patriarchy)

females wanting to be men (gives in to the patriarchy)

feminism:

not calling people the name they want (they’re delusional hehe)

saying intersex people are just deformed perisex people (‘male’ intersex and ‘female’ intersex)

harassing minors on tumblr

harassing a minority on tumblr (the gay people website)

denying history (OF COURSE there weren’t trans people at stonewall trans people were invented in 2005 when a man wanted to see women naked)

cutting off part of a group to make the group more palatable for opponents of the group (not going to work and ostracizes some of your best allies)
