you actually do need to center all trans voices in feminism, and that includes trans men. if you cannot wrap your head around the fact that trans men belong in feminist movements - without erasing their identity as men - you are part of the problem and you are not an ally to trans people.

This is just your regular free-of-charge reminder that when people argue that transandrophobia does not exist, or that its not important enough to talk about, they are explicitly saying they don't care about sexual assault victims or victims of suicide (among other things).

Over half of all AFAB nonbinary people and trans men are or will be the victims of sexual assault. These are the highest rates in the community.

About 9 out of every 10 trans men have seriously considered attempting suicide. This is the highest rate in the community.

About half of all trans men have or will attempt suicide. This is the highest rate in the community.

Addressing these issues means talking about them, and we need a word for what this is in order to do that.

This is what "transandrophobia" is for. This is why we need that word.

It's not about hurting or blaming trans women, it's not about saying cis men are oppressed for being men or that cis women aren't, it's not a "white issue" or an "MRA" thing- and the people who argue that it is, and that we shouldn't have the word because it is, are distracting from the real issues. They are taking attention away from, ignoring, and erasing those issues. They not only do not care about them- they want you not to care, too.

They want to remove the language we need in order to talk about these problems. They want us to stop taking about them. They want these problems to continue happening.

It's not a fucking game.

hey how about we stop trying to decide things for demographics/communities we're not even a part of.

transfems should not be able to dictate what the oppression of transmascs is, and vice versa.

goes for cishets too.

just stay in your own goddamn fucking lane, dawg. the fact that you care so much about how a minority group you're not a part of describes their axis of oppression seems really weird and like you're obsessed with them to an insane degree.

you're not a "good queer" if you get your knickers twisted over someone daring to say their experience as a trans/intersex/nonbinary/other non-conforming indentity person is different than the radfem slop you've been consuming all of your life

people who think adding intersex symbolism to the queer flag makes it “ugly” are insanely weak minded, weak willed, weak spirited and will not survive the coming winter

certain queers will really believe that gender and sexuality labels have rigid, unchangeable definitions that must be maintained and "protected" from evil queers who want to ID as transman lesbians or whatever, and then go on to act like they are any better than a raging transphobe crying about how the terms male and female "don't mean anything anymore"

let them know that you support them

viewing queer identities as “this is the label that makes me happy and feels most accurate now” rather than “this is who I am, was, and always will be” will definitely take the pressure off, friends. changing your mind is proof that you have one.
