“Patriarchy hurts men too” is not the same as saying “men suffer the exact same structural treatment as women,” and you really shouldn’t need my ass to tell you that.
Moreover the idea that maleness magically insulates someone from any structural discrimination is farcical. It’s a South Park level misrepresentation. Patriarchy is inherently racialized. It is a method of class warfare, of war on deviance. To say that men aren’t hurt by patriarchy is to entirely deny the notion that men can be complete, rounded beings.
That notion, by the way, is central to the very idea of patriarchy. Benefits and suffering under structural oppression are not and never can be quantified as zero-sum attributes.

I wish they could invent a medical device that temporarily transfers your symptoms and pain to the doctor treating you and it worked like a shock collar. “I think light exercise would-.” and then bam they’re rolling around the floor clutching their stomach in agony and dry heaving.

Tumblr is good for creative types because the tag system lets you be truly deranged about how much you like it without feeling as Exposed as a Comment Section

ALSO. Don't settle for an abusive partner just cause shes a lesbian and that makes you feel seen as the woman you are. Easier said than done I know. But I notice trans fems in abusive relationships is often framed as 'boyfriend abusing her' but anyone can be abusive. I've seen so many trans girls be abused by their cis girlfriends and they think 'well at least she sees me as a woman' no you deserve better than that! There are better women out there for you!

Rhetorical question: Is this a TERF or a crab in a bucket trying to get validation on the value of the TMA/TME binary?
Why are you doing the exact same "some specific lived experiences are strictly gender locked and we have to make extreme assumptions about it to expel the appropriators" bullshit TERFs do?

Many reasons why I'm not on-board with the whole misandry thing that seems to be getting popular among the types of trans women who get big around here, beyond just the fact that I think making assumptions based on gender is bad on principle or the fact that it gives off a bitter sort of energy in a lot of posts.
It's also that in my view there is not really much of a meaningful difference between men and women, especially at the individual level human relationships operate at. Whatever combination of traits you associate with women also exists in some men, and vice versa. The same actions don't become different based on the gender of the person doing them either. A lot of this stuff just strikes me as profoundly sexist, and not even strictly in an anti-men way but also in the sense that it once again reinforces the predator/prey binary of traditional sexism, as radfems always do.
It also highlights and centers gender in a way I find extremely off-putting. I don't want to get any kind of special treatment just for being a woman. I don't want people to assume I am "safer" or more morally upstanding based on gender. I truly don't see myself as being on a different level from cis men (or cis women!) in any way, at least not more so than I do from humans more generally.
I profoundly dislike it when gender is treated like a definitive quality of my life that should color everything I am and everything I do, even if this is done "benevolently".

Yeah, a lot of women are also perverts. It is known.
"I'm no better than a man" yeah, you're not better, but that's fine. As long as you're not sexually harassing people or anything you're not doing anything wrong and neither is that guy.
"You don't get it listening to anime music is a red flag when a boy does it and I was not a woman yet-" I think you can listen to anything you want regardless. How do you even come up with this kind of gender binary?
Just stop doing gender norms. Stop artificially limiting your freedom and inventing reasons to shame yourself over harmless behaviors or feelings. This is not a christian Minecraft server.

Trans inclusion is incompatible with radical feminism.

people who dont maintag: here is a full analysis of a scene where i write out what each character considered the situation to be, why their pasts made them react the way they did, and why the eventual misunderstanding was as avoidable as it was inevitable… #rambles #idk if this means anything so i wont spam tags ^^;
people who do maintag: i hate blorbo #blorbo #from my shows

Weird when you first start paying attention to animal noises and realize they don't actually sound like the words we use

as much as I hate modern social media occasionally itll allow some random person in their bedroom with the best original music ive ever heard in my entire goddamn life to get their shit out there and that sort of makes all the annoying parts worth it to me
