Fuck Twitter

Where is the lie? Only mentally disordered people have a “gender identity”. That is a fact!

The rest of us are just normal humans male/man or female/woman.

Shit like this is exactly why I hate most of that “sex positivity” bullshit y'all be yapping about smh

For one trans woman, finding a date within San Francisco’s lesbian community turned out to be much harder than she anticipated.

I’m so sick of hearing and talking about the cotton ceiling, as I’m sure most of us are. But then Julia Serano publishes yet another article shaming females for their sexual preferences and I feel compelled to speak up.

Serano says she has spent plenty of time interacting with queer and lesbian communities this past decade. So how is it that she apparently has no idea that a huge reason why females who are exclusively attracted to other females do not wish to perform sex acts on/with a penis is because being a lesbian has nothing to do with male genitalia? (BTW, Julia, it’s hard to “pass as cis” when you’re performing slam-poetry love letters to your penis.)

 I’ve been asked on Twitter by several trans women how it is that trans women retain and flex the male entitlement they picked up before transition. This article is a prime example. Throughout the article, Serano tsk-tsks female lesbians for not finding her presentation attractive and for not being enthusiastic about her penis. She attempts to shame them by comparing their reactions to the more receptive straight males and bi females she’s dated (they’ll sleep with a trans woman, why won’t you??). She speaks scornfully of their choice in partners (females and trans men, who incidentally are also female).  Serano all but comes out and says she is owed sex from lesbians. 

The term “cotton ceiling” seems to have fallen out of use among trans activists, but only because they got hip to the stigma it now carries; they still push the underlying concept all the time. And it needs to stop.

when you find a politics blog with a bunch of great stuff that you agree with… only to realize at the last second they’re a TERF.

Stilboestrol, a synthesized form of estrogen, was one of several drugs administered to ‘treat’ homosexuality by means of chemical castration.

Facts

👉Trans women are male. They were born male and they’ll die male. We will all decompose in the ground and centuries later archaeologists will find our skeletons and be able to tell if we were of the sex that produces sperm or ovum. Is that not the definition of a trans woman? someone born male who ‘identifies’ with being a woman? 

👉Acknowledging the reality of the sex you obviously are is not violence. It may hurt your feelings, but it is not violence. Being critical of gender and males defining womanhood does not make someone transphobic.

👉Lesbians are female homosexuals. You can’t come up with your own definitions for words and get pissed when people don’t use your definition. 

👉Homosexuals are people attracted to the same sex that they are.

👉Sexuality is about attraction to primary and secondary sex characteristics, not an elusive sparkly ‘feminine’ feeling that you display with sexist stereotypes, presentations, and roles. No one is sexually attracted to gender identity.

👉Saying women have vaginas is not the same this as saying women ARE vaginas. it’s a classification. If i say dogs have fur, am i ‘reducing’ them to their fur? No, i’m just pointing out one of their defining features.

👉Defining woman as anything other than female is sexist garbage.

👉Lesbians don’t have to date, have sex with, or be attracted to trans women. To berate and harass them for the natural preferences that come with their sexuality is misogynistic rape-apologism.

👉‘Cis’ women are not privileged over trans women. An equivalent sentence is ‘females are not privileged over males’

👉Sex is not a social construct. Social constructs exist only in the context of human culture and are variable. Sex is a biological reality manifested by gonads, reproductive organs, skeletal structure, secondary sex characteristics, chromosomes, etc. Humans are sexually dimorphic with .05% being intersex.

👉Socialization based on birth sex is real. It manifests as differential treatment throughout life based on sex. Socialization starts the second the doctor says ‘it’s a girl!’ and the mother gets showered in bows, dresses, Disney princess, toy kitchens and cleaning equipment, all in sparkles and shades of pink while the father is simultaneously disappointed he won’t get to play catch with his offspring and worried about boys victimizing and harassing his daughter, knowing firsthand how that plays out.

👉Gender is socially constructed. It is the roles assigned to males and females. It is ‘women wear dresses, aren’t good at math and science, have to shave and wear makeup, don’t do sports, are fragile and sensitive, are overly emotional and totally nurturing, should not be assertive or in positions of power, should have a goal to get married have kids and take their husbands name’

👉There is no such thing as brain sex. When trans women see an article saying trans women have a similar sized hippocampus as ‘cis’ women and they’ll say to themselves ’SEE!This means my made up gender identity is valid and genetic!’ when in reality the discussion section will mention that even for cis women it is a spectrum/distribution and that the results do not automatically imply that those differences are not due to brain plasticity, experience-dependent development, and socialization (half the time they’re not even studying causal factors). So you may be thinking, ‘well what ARE those differences present from birth?’. Experiments studying male and female differences from birth as displayed in children and infants show that the only cognitive differences are few and minuscule, such as higher visuospatial ability in males. And these articles never even mention some correlation to ‘gender identity’. Thats left for psychologists and social theorists, because there’s no way to empirically study the bullshit gender identity in your head when you can’t even come up with a definitive, operationally sound definition for ‘woman’

👉Bathrooms are separated by sex, not gender identity. Males do not belong in female only safe spaces, bathrooms, lockerooms, rape shelters, etc.

i thought they were going to say “salty balls”.

Cos only gross smelly men would say “Do you smell that?” to a woman like that...

You know that scene in Anchorman where Steve Carrell just starts pointing at things and saying he loves them? “I love lamp”? At this point that’s how I feel about genderists identifying lesbians. Yes, I am allowed to hate straight men for calling themselves lesbians. The fact that this is immediately twisted around this way is fucking disgusting.

Any one who thinks they are “more woman” then a woman is using misogyny. Woman is not a measurement it is not a competition, it is the reality of being a human female

I’d be so creeped out if an adult actually called me a Vagina Haver in person I’d probably mace them

Bc not centering white men’s dick is racist to all men’s dicks... white women not be cooperative with the dicks is a serious problem... or something...

Why is radical feminism considered “white feminism” when it’s the only feminism I’ve seen that actually tries to worry and protect poc women? Liberal feminism is such a “me!me!me!” Shitshow that vulnerable women are usually thrown under the bus for other (white) women’s empowerment.
