"telling cis men that when they use girl stuff they are eggs is bad because its miss gendering" and "you should give people new gender perspectives if you can so they don't allow them to suffer" are statements that can and should coexist

This is horribly worded, but i hope you get the point, maybe someone can put into better words

queer bar: 15 dollar cover charge, cisbians sre othering me, expensive drinks, "sapphic" nights as opposed to dyke nights. entirety of rise and fall of a midwest princess just played straight. everyone is thin.

dyke bar/gay bar: fat old ppl are buying me drinks and calling me cute, gender is dead, cheap beer, good movies on tv.

if your (trans-)feminism inherently excludes any minority group on the basis that one of their immutable traits makes them inherently evil, you are not a transfeminist. you are LARPing as one, but you aren't doing jack shit that has to do with feminism.

this includes trans people, nonbinary individuals, trans guys and transmascs, trans gals and transfems, intersex people (with or without any trans identity), gnc individuals, black trans people, brown trans people, asian trans people, indigenous trans people— and any combination of these.

if you exclude any group of people from your transfeminism or activism, you are not an activist. you are trying to seem like a good person while clinging desperately to your own hateful, putrid ideals. get better and over yourself

Hey, sepratism is bad actually let's not do this

Yes there are some transfemmes who are shitty to us, but I don't believe that's the majority by any means.

There are some transmascs that are awful to transfemmes as well. It goes both ways. I don't think it makes any sense to cut ourselves off from good people in our community because of some infighters

Let's not alienate our sisters over a few bad actors please. We need each other. Especially now

i hate it when you follow a cool blog and then they reblog out of nowhere a post with "i wish all men could kill themselves lol". like. nah.

I'm watching a video essay about a game ive been interested in playing. The creator of the video, who has crossdressed multiple times, makes a "women arent funny" joke, and i suddenly realize ive never witnessed him acknowledge a woman in an uplifting way before.

I'm on a dating app for lgbt+ people. I've stated multiple times on my profile that i would rather lose an arm than recieve nudes without consent. I will be sent five dick pics for every 2 people i talk to that night.

I'm talking with my dad, who informs me he's been trying his best to learn about trans issues. He says the same things steven crowder brings up when trying to ridicule trans people. I gently but firmly correct my father and get told that ive been fed propaganda.

I'm on instagram, under the comments of a post ridiculing someone for being a misogynyst. Someone's left a comment saying "it must be hard being a woman on the internet" and i respond "it is." I will have every aspect of my appearance scrutinized as a reminder that no matter how well i pass, it will never be enough for someone with bad intentions.

I'm back on that dating app for lgbt+ people. I'm messaged by an attractive looking person, but i can see their partner prominently displayed in all but their main photo, oftentimes striking what im sure they thought was a very intimidating pose. Their bio says "looking for a third for our anniversary." I know that even if I did feel up to it, the gruff partner wouldnt approve of me because i don't pass.

I'm at a job interview for a clothing store. I tell the gracefully-dressed woman interviewing me that ever since i began my transition, i've discovered an interest in fashion, and that this job would allow me to dip my toes into the industry in a safe way. I'm told that i've reduced womanhood to a stereotype, and i can tell by her tone that i lost any chance at the job the minute she realized i was trans.

I'm at the same hospital i got facial feminization surgery in, trying to figure out what's wrong with my bowels. When the person behind the desk gives me a wristband with my patient info on it, i notice a single, lonely, letter M. I ask a nurse in private why it would say that despite me having changed it nearly a year prior. They say they have no clue, and bring in paperwork for me to fill out and have it re-changed again.

I'm living with my mom at the time. I'm new to transitioning, and decide to try my hand at voice training. It feels a bit off, but otherwise im feeling neutral toward the whole thing. I try speaking in this new voice to my mom and she laughs. Now, when people ask if i intend to voice train, i find speaking at all difficult for minutes after.

I didnt have some sort of grand message to convey by this. I just had a thought and then that thought spiralled into whatever the hell this became. Some, okay most, might call it complaining; they are right to do so.

okay my dash has beed flooded by the terms 'tme' and 'tma', and can we honestly just drop the whole thing? do we really fucking need another way to make a false dichotomy? do we really need more infighting? do we need more boxes?

[gaylilgremlin]

I do not get the transmasc vs transfem fights the slightest

We are a community, all trans and nonbinary people included and we cannot make this a race about who is the most opressed

And if we actually want to find out who is the "most" opressed that is just gonna turn into once again creating a false binary which divides us

Every single trans person is opressed in this system, each of us in different ways, there are transfems who have experienced more opression than me, there are transfems who have experienced less. I as a trans men will fight for both of them because they are my sisters and all of them deserve happiness, and they will do the same for me

And also, splitting this whole fight to transfem and transmasc is fucked up from the start. We are supposed to abolish the gender binary not make a new one. Nonbinary people shouldn't be erased from trans circles. No one should be erased from trans circles

We are more hated now than ever, we should help each other and listen to the other's pain and opression

Go out to your local lgbt communities and if you don't see someone at the table invite them, don't assume the worst, take part in activism and see people as individuals not as groups

This is our only way to change anything

reposting this so staff will have a harder time trying to make everyone forget it <3

Tumblr Fandom Blogger I am speaking directly to You I am speaking right in your Ear So Fucking Loud. Do Not Respond to that trans woman’s post about being misgendered with Words such as “man” or “dude” used “gender neutrally” with Your List of Gender Neutral Terms of Address. She would not like to be called “Folks” or “Comrade” or “Scallywag” or “Friend” She would like to be referred to as a Woman. Put down the Keyboard or Gas will begin to Fill The Room

A TumblrBan% speedrun is actually the only competition in which trans women do have an unfair advantage.

[awesomsaus]

would once again like to remind EVERYONE

if i make a post that says something about trans women, but its also applicable to trans men or nonbinary ppl.. feel free to reblog and mention them!!! /gen

it really hurts to see people get mad when others try to add more positivity to a post, so i want to be clear that you CAN and SHOULD reblog my posts to include more groups!!

[whereserpentswalk]

It's interesting how many people on here who claim to fight for trans rights have a view of trans men which states that they automatically have male privilege just from identifying as male but also are permanently tied to womanhood and have to be defined as women due to experiencing misogyny. Which just happens to be the exact same view of trans men that terfs have, which could mean nothing.

[crowcolonthree]

hot take: i think that trans people should stop fighting each other about who's more oppressed or whatever and start kissing each other awesome swagger style while we destroy capatalism and kill elon musk

[milo-by-the-fishtank]

People aren’t saying that cis or perisex folks cannot talk or advocate for transgender or intersex folks. What people are saying is that cis or perisex folks should not be determining what type of experiences an entire group of transgender or intersex people go through. There is a difference between education, uplifting, and advocating for a group and speaking over an entire group of people by determining what a group of people experiences, again a group of people that you are not part of. Also, if you’re listening to part of a group that does not mean you’re listening to the whole. You have to talk to the specific group of people you were talking about to be able to advocate for them and to learn about their lived experiences!

[spidermansoffical]

yeah btw if you believe in any of that "kill all men" and "i hate men" bs get away from me

bonus points (which is not a good thing to have here) if you say "but not trans men though!!"

trans men shouldn't have to out ourselves as trans to get respect. that just means that you don't see us as men, but instead us as "woman lite" or "man lite" or whatever tranny freak bs you wanna call us

anyways i love men im so gay happy pride
