some helpful clarification, since some of y'all are confused
what unpacking ur transmisogyny does not mean:
- performing sexual acts u are not comfortable with for any reason
what unpacking ur transmisogyny does mean:
- unlearning ur preconceived biases and assumptions about some women's bodies
- realizing that penises are not masculine, predatory, aggressive, or tools of penitration and can infact be feminine and delicate
- realizing that ur assumptions about what a womans body looks like are rooted in racism and misogyny
- understanding that all attempts to categorize and standardize what a womans body "must" look like is always just an attempt to police and control women
- unlearning the lie that u can tell someones gender based on their physical features and that that gender predicts anything about them
- undoing ur association of vaginas with safety and penises with violence. no one is inherently a safe person to be around just because of their genitalia
and the crux of what this all boils down to is to stop looking at men and women as separate categories of human beings defined by arbitrary physical characteristics
we are all variations on a human being. we are a spectrum of presentation. having a penis or a vagina is no different a variation than having blue or brown eyes and says just as little about a person
because what a womans body looks like does not define her as a person

Saying things like “You don’t know REAL cold” and “You call THAT heat?” is OVER!!! I don’t want to ever see shit like this again!!! We are all the victims of a system that put profit before our human lives and we are experiencing a world wide climate catastrophe!!! Be fucking empathetic to one another!!!

the queer stereotype cycle often goes "queer group starts making inside jokes > these jokes are overheard by cishets > cishets now start using these inside jokes against queer people > these inside jokes fall out of favour > because queer people aren't a hivemind some queer people keep making these inside jokes > these queer people are then attacked by other queer people for perpetuating stereotypes > nobody criticises the cishets who made it into a bad thing in the first place" and youse just keep letting that go round and round.

hey the "it's ok this person is doing [weird but harmless behavior] bc they're autistic" attitude isn't actually helpful. The behavior itself needs to be destigmatized regardless of who's doing it.
I'm autistic, and:
I sure as hell don't feel like having to constantly whip out my Autism Membership Club Card™ to justify my atypical quirks to strangers. That's private medical information, actually? No one should have to choose between being seen as autistic or as a jerk/weirdo.
I don't enjoy being made self-conscious and having to wonder "if this weird thing I'm doing is wrong when allistic people do it, does that mean there is something inherently wrong with being autistic? is my 'bad' behavior excused bc I am already assumed to be a bad person, who can't help being bad?" That's ridiculous and I don't need that energy.
And what about the many people who are undiagnosed? The many allistic people who have other mental health issues? Are they just weirdos until a medical doctor says otherwise?
What about neurotypical people whose behavior is non-standard for a thousand other reasons, medical and nonmedical? HoH people with unusual speech patterns? People from different cultural backgrounds? People who just have some random weird habits, because it's actually normal to deviate from the norm in some way? At what point is someone no longer required to seek your permission to behave weirdly? Who qualifies and who doesn't?
These are absurd situations.
There's an easy solution: destigmatize weird but harmless behavior, period. People who speak, act, walk, or otherwise behave in a way you find unusual are still people (whose diagnoses are none of your business btw), and we deserve to exist in the world without you judging or punishing us. Choose your battles wisely, because I see a lot of you attacking people who are already walking wounded.
TLDR stop being a judgemental asshole and the world will be a slightly nicer place. mind your own business and let people be weird.

saw someone unironically answer an ask with “sure! i’ll do that :) /gen /srs /nm /pos” and y’all. this is what we were cautioning against when we warned not to overuse tone indicators. nothing about that phrase implies sarcasm, ill intent, or anger. there was no need to use a single tone indicator there, but if you really must, just /gen would suffice. tone indicators are only helpful to clarify something that wasn’t already clear in the message, not to confirm something that wasn’t already in question. only use them if the text could actually be misconstrued without them, otherwise they’re redundant and actually start to lose meaning.

alotta the reaction to the notion that queer people are promiscuous, sexually deviant, predatory, and so on is to reject that by focusing on romance, on softness, on domesticity in an effort to normalize us in the world’s eyes and while i get it i just cant get behind that method of pushback. the goal is to dismantle the idea that hookups are bad, that sex is bad, that multiple sexual partners is bad, that sex outside the norm is bad. the romance focused approach doesn’t address this and only leaves us with the same problem, but this time brushed under a rug.
