So after browsing the "transmisogyny" tag for a couple weeks and seeing the animosity towards trans men (and anybody who was AFAB in general), I decided to look into the "transandrophobia" tag that some transfeminists were decrying. Y'know, to see trans men's side of the story.

It only took a few minutes for me to see that most trans men who used that word were not doing what some were claiming they did.

They weren't remixing sexist MRA talking points or weaponizing their AGAB against trans women. They were just putting words to the specific axes of oppression they faced, and how they don't benefit from patriarchy like cis men do (society does not see them as men except for when it hurts them, like with the bathroom thing). This only becomes clearer to me the longer I browse the tag.

And this has left me confused about why some transfeminists are so angry at them. Is it because they've had bad experiences with trans men and assume all of them are like that? Are they taking posts by trans men talking about transandrophobia in bad faith due to paranoia that a world that's hostile towards us breeds? Do they just not understand? I don't get it.

As a trans woman myself, seeing all this fighting and vitriol over what seems to be misunderstandings is saddening.

Everyday I am so confused about the anti-union sentiments because when we learned about unions it was always so pro-union in my school? And I'm from Texas so I really don't know where the disconnect happened between being taught about how unions helped labor laws and now that unions are bad. Like did we listen to the same class?

DEI does not mean lower standards.

You are thinking of white privilege.

another update no one asked for: I’m writing this in bed, and she’s lying with me. It’s our bed, in the apartment we share. With our cats, one which we raised together, sleeping in the living room. She forgets I’m trans, and I do too sometimes.

Well, she said she liked me today and I told her I liked her too and so now I will have to come out to her eventually and it’s not that I’m scared to it’s just ughhhh cause it’s always so awkward at first

a friendly reminder

asking a stranger if they are trans is the same as asking them what’s in their pants, its just a different font. no one, even another trans person, owes you that information.

Hey gang, I know I’m not nearly as active on here anyways as I used to be, but I am here to say it will probably be a hot minute before I post again

To put it quite bluntly, I’ve been struggling with a sex addiction for quite some time now and tumblr has been a big source of that recently, so I will be uninstalling it. Yes, I could access the mobile/desktop website but I absolutely hate the format so I don’t think I will lmao.

Love yall, yall been the best supporters of my transition. See yall when I get a grip on this whole addiction thing. Remember, jackets are great but bunching up the sleeves to bulk up your shoulders is even better :)
