Do u know what's DISGUSTING? It's when you have to remove insects from the only loaf of bread you're allowed to eat each day, but to make fun of ourselves, we call these insects "free protein." And as the saying goes, when you're hungry, your mind shuts down. Now I cover my nose when eating a loaf of bread so I don't smell it, and I avoid looking at it so I don't see the insects...

But that's not important, there's worse. Malnutrition is starting to affect my 6 y.old sister, as intestinal worms are eating away at her body from the inside out and destroying her health. So, I'm appealing to you all to donate so I can buy a clean bag of flour for $570 and provide treatment for her. She's slowly dying... Or by paypal

Strawmen that keep being hauled out for battery (even though they're falling apart and bear no resemblance to anyone who is sincerely trying to discuss this issue):

If you believe in transandrophobia, it means you believe trans women are an oppressor class inflicting structural oppression on trans men!

No it doesn't. It means you believe transmascs face a distinct sort of persecution under the cishetpatriarchy, which draws on several intersecting bigotries, such as butchphobia, homophobia, lesbophobia, misogyny, and transphobia - and that transmascs should be centred in discussion about the specific bigotries they face. Transmascs are the ones who get to determine the language used to describe this bigotry. No one else gets a say - just like we all agree now that it wasn't the place of lesbians or gay men to claim 'biphobia' or 'aphobia' were inappropriate, back in the Dread Disk Horse of yesteryear.

If you believe in transandrophobia, it means you believe cis men are structurally discriminated against by society! That makes you an MRA!

You are incorrect. Believing in transandrophobia means you believe transmascs are structurally discriminated against by the overarching cis-dominant society, at a specific (but not unique!) axis of transphobia and misogyny. Thoughts on this vary. My take is: Systemic misandry is not real - however, men ARE hurt by the patriarchy too, albeit to a less targeted extent than women. Harmful gender roles & expectations are enforced on them primarily by other men, but also by women. Any actual feminist will agree with this. This is very, very basic. It only takes a tiny bit of critical thinking to extrapolate from this that the 'negative' stereotypes attached to men under the patriarchy - 'angry, violent, dangerous' - are disproportionately leveraged against marginalised groups to further their oppression. This includes Black men and all men of colour, and trans men, and ESPECIALLY trans men of colour due to how these axes of disenfranchisement intersect. This factor is contributory to transandrophobia, and joins at an intersection of transphobia and misogyny to create a specific flavour of bigotry that is targeted at transmasculinity. This belief is, in fact, compatible with believing that misandry is not structural. MRAs have taken a correct conclusion (men suffer under the patriarchy!) and used it as an excuse to blame women for this, while ignoring the far larger part cis men play in upholding these structures.

You believe transmascs are more discriminated against than transfemmes!

No, I don't. I have seen a (very) few people try to argue this, and they've been shut down - rightfully so. Because they're wrong. But, at the end of the day, who is discriminated against most is not the question. The question is: does this minority group who is demonstrably discriminated against by the cishetpatriarchy deserve to self-define their own struggles and form their own communities to talk about the oppression they face? To which the only right answer can be 'yes'. For the record, I fully believe that trans women face more violence, and trans Black women face the most outright murder. This is, obviously, grotesque transmisogyny that needs to be centred in discussions of transmisogyny. The hatred towards transfemmes in this society cannot be understated. Transmascs are, however, systemically erased from violence statistics, in ways predictable because of hyperinvisibility. This is particularly evident once you move beyond a USAmerica-centric point of view. For instance, the ratio of trans men to trans women is 1:1 in USAmerica, but there are FAR fewer reported trans men than trans women in other parts of the world, including those where cis women have considerably less freedoms. I encourage you to consider why this might be. Non-western transmascs of colour have talked about this far more extensively and with more knowledge than I can. I have a bad memory, but if anyone recalls the name of the amazing guy who spoke about this a while back, please let me know and I'll link him. He did some very important research into this issue that should be highlighted. In addition, the fact that we have the highest sexual violence and suicide rates cannot be ignored. Forced detransition is very much a form of violence, and one that often leads to death via suicide. I think these facts should be a call for solidarity and mutual respect of the problems that disproportionately affect transfemmes, and those that disproportionately affect transmascs.
