Saw a Reddit post about a cis woman infantilizing trans men, and this is why I think cis women are THE most annoying version of transphobia in the world. Like yeah a cis man will tell you "kys tranny" but he's not very well going to take the time to psychologically torture you for the heck of it by treating you like you are exactly [three] years old.
#im sorry but cis women are so much more likely to be really fucking weird to trans people#i cannot stand them#tw suibaiting#mentioned#transphobes#infantilization#transandrophobia#bite kill maim#look im not a misogynist BUT i dont trust women for shit#they are literally taught never to talk straight at people which results in some of the most convoluted psychological warfare ever#also on one side there's transphobic misogynists on the other side there's terfs#and very few women i've met cis OR trans have been normal about trans men and transmasculine people#even the tumblr trans community is chock full of either trans women telling us we're oppressing them and also us being hated doesn't matter#and spouting transandrophobic bullshit#but the cis women 'allies' who are like 'i know trans guys i have a trans friend who most definitely isnt scared to tell me off for my#fucked up behaviour'#the thing is this is very much how women bully other women so actually#newsflash#transmascs are not 'tme' and literally all fucking trans people are endangered by transmisogyny#some of you gals just have a superiority complex about it bc you want to have someone to look down on#almost every man I've met who is not old as hell or a borderline nazi is just. normal about it.#if a woman is too interested in your transness? run for the fucking hills#no she most probably won't physically attack you but she will try her damnedest to psychologically ruin you#not sorry if i come off as an asshole#these people are WAY too comfortable making us uncomfortable#i have had it up to here#if anyone tries to infantilize me for any reason i will scare them till they beg ME to leave them alone#idk how other people tolerate it but i sure as hell won't#and i am absolutely not above hitting a woman if she's touching me against my will#you want to baby me and constantly touch me and shit you are getting slapped into sunday

Us-the-voices intro card!
this is a work in progress but currently it will house the tags we use, our DNI, and alter intros and a couple other fun things!
——————⭐️🦀SIDE BLOGS🦀⭐️————
@us-the-voices-xenogender-blog
A blog for all things blinkies, xenogenders and pixel art
——————🛑‼️WARNING‼️🛑—————
THIS BLOG CONTAINS BLINKING, FLASHING, EYESTRAIN AND OTHER PHOTOSENSITIVE THINGS! PLEASE BE SAFE, WE WILL TRY TO TAG AS MUCH AS WE CAN BUT IT WILL SLIP THROUGH. PLEASE ONLY LOOK AT TEXT POST FROM US, IF YOU HAVE EPILEPSY BECAUSE I CANNOT GUARANTEE THIS BLOG IS SAFE
this blog talks about mature topics! Such as Sexual abuse, death, trauma, child abuse, ableism, sexism, racism, police brutality, some really depressing environmental issues, homophobia, transphobia, queerphobia, gore, capitalism, and MORE!
so please consider this your warning!
———————⚠️ DNI ⚠️—————————
Terfs/radfems, transphobes/queerphobes, (I have had enough of you. Why do you have to be so awful Jesus, it’s not like awful people don’t come in all shapes, sizes, races, and genders. I ain’t defending awful people. But trans people just exist and I believe in judging people on a person to person basis. I don’t think you are bad I just want you to shut up about it, I’ll always be loudly supportive of trans people and loudly a feminist too. So deal with it! Also I don’t hate men, why would i??? So shush)
ableists/sanists (like the people who discriminate against mentally ill people),
animal abusers/people who spread misinformation about animals and animal care, (I hope you stub your toes)
syscourse (yeah I don’t ever want to engage in it idc shut up this blog is about literally everything else BUT that.),
bad faith gender/other Identities (E.G BLM gender, transabled, ect.)
racists/xenophobes/antisemites, misogynists.
non-binary exclusionists.
pro-censorship people.
anti-therians/otherkin, (if you are it’s not a deal breaker lol, it’s just some of us are therian/otherkin due to plurality)
only NSFW blogs (like if you occasionally post NSFW your okay, if it’s less than 50% nsfw your fine on this blog lol),
MAP’s AND PEDO’s and people who like l*licon/sh**tacon (fuck off and stay off) (sorry I am actually anti censorship but following our most recent ban I’m being more “careful” when mentioning these topics so sorry)
Dream Stans (yeah I fucking hate that guy, I like MCYT but dream and co can stay off of here REAL) (I have always hated him and I will continue to, fuck off dream Stan’s),
anti-good faith xenogenders (yeah so what if the term xeno-identities is more the “right” term idgaf! I literally have no qualms nor problems with xenogenders, in my mind it makes sense because gender is a social construct and so why not have fun with it?)
And more to be added :)
WE ALSO BELIEVE PEOPLE CAN CHANGE AND GROW, AND HATE IS LEARNED SO IF YOU WERE ONE OF THESE THINGS IN THE PAST AND HAVE NOW REFORMED I’M NOT TALKING ABOUT YOU!
——————————- ALTER INTROS —————————————
Now expanded in our tumblr page!
Pop (hi I’m pop, I’m usually the one on here when it’s not everyone else. If you see me more than usual it means LIFE happened. I’m technically host? But me, Lena, And poppie kinda share that role. They/them he/him)
poppie (cat girl, you see her a lot on here. She’s SUPER into the veganism scene and animal rights and is a cat-therian lol we all love her she’s the best. She/her any cat neopronouns actually.)
Lena (demon, yeah she’s a demon! She’s nonsense hardworking and in the demonkin/otherkin scene. She/her)
belle (psychology nerd, actually knows how to write ANYTHING is honestly the best. She/her)
————————————. Tags ————————————————-
#Anticapitalism stuff (a tag that argues against capitalism, and trashing multinational corporations and a bit of environmental stuff.)
#anarchism stuff (a tag for all things anarchism)
#art stuff (a tag for stuff related to the ethics, discussion, or making of art.)
#music stuff (for all things music and music theory!)
#tv and movie stuff (the tag for film and television, kinda fun kinda sad! It’s good tho)
#anti-censorship stuff (a tag for anti-censorship stuff, and why it’s important!)
#trans stuff (a tag for all things trans! Includes dark topics, mostly happy stuff tho.)
#queer stuff (a tag for all things LGBTQIA+, mostly happy but with triggering and dark topics.)
#mental health stuff (A tag for all things mental health, let it be help or just memes or darker topics.)
#mental illness stuff (a tag for specifically mental illnesses, like anxiety or depression or whatever usually REALLY dark but sometimes happy usually dark tho.)
#veganism stuff (a tag for all things vegan, not recipes just ethics and whatever. I [pop] don’t usually add to it but poppie does ALL THE TIME.)
#disability (for all things disability, let it be activism stuff, vents, information, or just funny stuff! It’s a tag I tend to use for myself because fun fact I [pop] am not okay! Health wise lol.)
#punk stuff (A tag for all things punk, let it be C-punk, madpunk, neuropunk or whatever! It’s a tag for all things punk! Including art, crafts, sewing and punk beliefs and politics I love punks I am not really one due to a whole lotta reasons but I love them so much <3 )
#environmentalism stuff (Climate change, mass extinctions, greedy corporations and politicians, animal rights, and more stuff. Mostly climate/animal related but intersects with disability stuff, anarchism stuff, activism stuff, and veganism and punk stuff. Fun fact these types of things are extremely intersectional but are never presented as such due to infighting!)
#healthcare stuff (The weird tag related to health and healthcare, not a disability tag, not a environmentalism tag literally health and healthcare which is weird. Mostly PSA’s)
#animal care stuff (For all things animal care, I disagree with veganism’s doctrine here. Keeping Some animals and keeping animals can be done well and awesomely and help petstore and wild animals, but people who do animal care just absolutely trash just don’t deserve anything or anyone. It’s a fine line, but I genuinely believe if you take good care of your animals and give them an amazing quality of life I genuinely don’t see a problem with keeping animals.)
#animal abuse stuff (Goes hand in hand with animal care stuff, it’s pretty bad at times, it is what it says on the tin. Mostly also animal care stuff.)
#child abuse stuff (For stories, children’s rights, or experiences. It’s pretty dark.)
#youth liberation (for youth liberation stuff, it’s important honestly.)
#children's rights (A tag for all things children’s rights it’s super cool!)
#homelessness stuff (a tag related to homelessness and just all the things that come with it, it’s a dark tag. Sometimes happy.)
#uhoused stuff (Same same but different, more related to cost of living crisis’s and capitalism then disenfranchisement and outright just the sad reality that is being mentally ill and homeless or a substance abuser and homeless or trans/queer and homeless or any other absolutely insane and awful reason people are homeless.)
#communism stuff (For all things communist, I don’t super believe it will fix anything and it is kinda extremely hard to get rid of monetary currency. But communism, socialism, anarchism, and punk theory are all connected in ways and have some BASED ideas and principles. So yeah that’s why it’s tagged on here!)
#socialism stuff (I actually do believe socialism can work, it’s definitely not the end all be all of ways to govern/live life but I think it’s a good stepping stone to all different wonderful things that can change the world for the better, usually the CIA/FBI/US government appears a lot in this tag due to reasons that will become apparent. But it’s a fun one!)
#fat stuff (A tag about fatphobia, diet culture, ableism and just annoying stuff about being fat lol. Mostly medical negligence and malpractice because holy shit fuck is it bad in this tag. Also Eating disorders are talked about in every post in one way or another, it’s a big problem. Dark tag.)
#religion stuff (A thing for all things religion, it’s basically every criticism and deep cut anyone and everyone has on every single religion, which yk obviously no one literally agrees with anything. It’s mostly everyone going “QUEER/TRANS/DISABLED/WOMEN/“SINNERS” DONT DESERVE THIS TREATMENT IT MAKES NO SENSE!” Other religions “NO THEY DO” and it’s actually very well written and argued for. Also atheism is talked about a lot too, it’s mostly like a deep philosophical and ethical debate that has spanned literally everything and everywhere where it’s all boiled down to “yeah some fuckers deserve prison, but the average normal guy kinda just exists we guess??? Religious or not???? And there’s kinda nothing wrong with it but we would rather them be religious in some way????” And that is still the shittyist summary ever too. But it’s the gist of this tag. Also memes!)
(and where I put all stuff related to religion it’s very much a mixed bag i’m not making fun of anyone actually it’s that there is genuinely too much variety in this tag to accurately tell you what’s in there. It’s everything related to religion all religions!)
#autism stuff (Specifically for autistic stuff, it’s used from time to time.)
#activism stuff (a tag for all things ally posting, and human/animal/land/just everything rights. It’s fun!)
#food stuff (A tag about all things food related, sometimes recipes sometimes diet culture and why it’s bad. Sometimes it’s just cultural things related to food. Food is a big topic LOL)
#comics and book stuff (a tag about all things comics, books, and written works.)
#tv and movie stuff or #film and tv (a tag about all things TV and film, let it be discussion, gifs, or videos or fun facts.)
#neurodivergent stuff (For all things neurodivergent! Fun stuff, kinda happy kinda dark. Intersects with mental health stuff and mental illness stuff and disability tags. Because like why wouldn’t it???)
#animals (yes just for animals, nice calm usually no triggering animal stuff. It’s just cuteness usually! Unless I put something dark in there then sorry.)
#too queue for school (A tag for all queued stuff I remember to tag! Usually wholesome most times not. But it’s just a fun “today’s thing queued!” Thing if I’m not online.)
—————————————- Our post tags —————————————
#us-the-voices Cooks (a tag for recipes, food we make, and random cooking tips???)
#us-the-voices reviews (a tag for all things reviews! Let it be movies, shows, games, art, books, fanfics, whatever!)
#us-the-voices talks (A tag for like personal affairs? Or just “haha update stuff went DOWN in our personal lives” or just general chatting with mutuals who knows I haven’t decided yet.)
#us-the-voices recommends (weird tag for all weird recommendations of shows/books/tv/fanfic/movies it’s there it’s weird and if your bored and want something to do maybe you’ll like it lol.)
#us-the-voices rants (a tag for rants, don’t take them seriously it’s usually momentarily sad/existential/angry/fed up/annoyed/trauma dump RANTS. suggest you just block the tag lol, I will probably make half of these while I’m unwell and sick or just stressed and under all sorts of stress. So honestly it’s just a tag so you guys don’t have to deal with it because I will eventually be stupid on the internet and I’d rather you understand these are nonsense rants that are just a release of information that’s been annoying us.)
#the voices talk (A tag for talking about alters or specific things some alters want to talk about but not all.)
#poppie weblogs (poppies tag for her stuff, it literally has everything in it.)
and more to come!

people on this site dont know what a terf is
trans exclusionary radical feminism is characterized by:
1, the belief that maleness is inherently linked to being a violent rapist, no better than an animal (or less than an animal)
2, women need to be protected from men (this comes directly from misogyny that claims women are defenseless)
3, since women are not men, and are often victims of men, women are inherently safe (the belief that women are not capable of violence is actually misogynistic in that it claims women have to be a certain way or they are not actually women, and that women just cant do the same things as men, but terfs wont admit that)
4, since maleness is savage, anyone with a penis is savage (very flawed logic but what else would you expect)
5, any closeness to maleness is savage, and as such trans men are savage, and just as violent as any other man.
6, trans women are deceptive, and trying to sneak into female spaces to abuse real women.
7, gender is biologically inherent, and it is impossible for someone to defy it.
8, however, it is possible to fail at gender, such as a woman being "too masculine", and therefore no longer a real woman. (ridiculous isnt it?)
that is what a terf is. not every transphobe is a terf. photomatt is not a terf. desantis is not a terf.
jkr is a terf.
it is a very particular set of beliefs, with protecting helpless women from the savage men at its core.
TIRFism is different, but very relevent and very present in trans spaces.
trans "inclusive" radical feminists are of the belief that trans people are exactly who they say they are, and therefore trans women need to be protected from savage trans men.
this is particularly dangerous because it easily manipulates trans people themselves.
ive seen both trans men and trans women fall victim to this ideology.
the trans men who speak up about it get called terfs, even when they show nothing but support for trans women.
trans women with this belief think that trans men gain something from being men. this is not true at all. trans men with this belief think the same, but also that if they personally haven't been oppressed for their gender, then no one has.
i gain nothing from being a man. it not really privilege if it can be revoked the instant someone knows im trans.
when its convenient, im a clueless little girl, manipulated by the discussion of transandrophobia. reeks of "women are helpless little creatures" doesn't it?
again, when its convenient, im a savage man and not safe to be around.
trans women experience the same thing, reversed.
in the eyes of cishetpatriarchy, trans men are weird dykes, and trans women are weird faggots.
our actual identity does not matter when it comes to oppression, what matters is how we are perceived by society.
if its convenient to call a gay man a dyke, cishetpatriarchy will do it.
anyone outside the binary is also subject to this. as long as its convenient, itll happen.
listen to the lived experiences of oppressed people. read transfem literature. read transmasc literature. read black literature. read indigenous literature. read intersectional literature. audiobooks count.
(side note, it was very intentional that i used the word "savage" to describe radfem attitudes towards masculinity. radical feminism often targets men of color particularly hard. its the same recycled rascism all over again. its the same language with a different lense)

Ride The Cyclone Open Roleplay
Doing a Ride The Cyclone roleplay.
Jane Doe: Taken by me
Ocean O'Connell Rosenberg: Taken by @democracyrockzz
Noel Gruber: Taken
Constance Blackwood: @jane-does-head @thenicestgirlintown
Mischa Bachinski: Taken by @max--jagerman
Ricky Potts: Taken by @krowsselfindulgy (@spacingbachelorette)
This will be the main trigger warning for the beginning of every scene:
Tw: death, unreality, body horror, implied gore, yelling, trauma, loss of identity, horny teens being horny teens
This will also be in the tags.
Any other trigger warnings should be added to reblogs as well as tags.
The concept is basically if Karnak died before ressurecting anyone. So it's just them doing silly shenanigans as ghosts, singing songs we think they would sing, and probably a bit of angst. It will mainly act as a follow up to the 2016 bootleg version, with yannick's edits of course. (If you headcanon a different performance of your song for your character that's fine.)
We will also create character sheets consisting of name, gender, pronouns, age, sexuality, sign, birthday, favorite ride, appearance, personality, backstory, and "the most _ in town." (Mine is the only one without a sign, birthday, and favorite ride. If you forget, don't worry, I can edit it in.)
It's how you imagine the characters, with a mix of headcanons and canon.
The uniforms are the same as the 2016 ones but without the plaid.
How they wear their uniform and how they accessorize is up to you.
You can interpret the characters however you'd like, but make sure to stay faithful to their base character traits. (Things like Noel being gay and Misha being Ukrainian. Also Ricky using MOBILITY AIDS THANK YOU.)
Be as descriptive as possible. (See mine and my friends character sheets for examples!)
Also me and friends are high school students, so please only other high school students!
No NSFW roleplay. Talking about sex is fine, but no actual sex scenes! I'd prefer SFW blogs too.
Characters having crushes on other characters is allowed, but it might not be reciprocated. (Me and @democracyrockzz are pretty much planning to do perfectdolls.)
Every thread will be a scene. When you want to start a new scene, make a new thread. Give a synopsis of what the scene will be about, as well as the location in the fair.
Example:
New Scene
Synopsis: The choir plays a board game.
@democracyrockz reblogged
Ocean: Guys look what I found!
(Ocean emerges with a board game)
Noel's roleplayer reblogged
Noel: Oh god, no.
It will be a public thread so people who aren't in the roleplay can still enjoy it.
No racist, sexist, ableist, saneist, colorist, binarist, pigmentist, homophobic, transphobic, biphobic, panphobic, acephobic, enbyphobic, queerphobic, xenophobic, islamophobic, fatphobic, misogynistic, transmisogynistic, body shaming, "pro-life", transid, "MAPS", pro contact para, TERF, anti semitic, anti neopronouns, anti xenogenders, anti mspec, anti BLM, anti feminist, or incel blogs.
Toxic behavior will not be tolerated. Hate comments will be deleted.
To claim your character, simply comment who you want to play or DM me.
Afterwords, write your character sheet. Take your time, the person playing Noel won't be ready for a little while so don't be rushed. (I'm getting ahead of time.) Make sure to tag me too.
Also let me know what to add to the main tw. If you plan on having your character bring a sensitive topic up, I need to add it.
I will then put your character sheet in the pinned post of my side blog @mystery-contestant. Make sure to follow it!
If you want to make changes to your already posted character sheet, edit the original post and send me a message letting me know!
You will know the roleplay has started as I will announce it on my side blog. I will be starting off the first "scene."
Also if there's something you think should be a main tw let me know!
We will be starting this summer!
Jane's character sheet!
Ocean's Character sheet!
Ricky's Character sheet!
Constance's Character sheet!
Breakdown of edits!

I know that the actual answer is just "oh they're bigots" but like. Do TERFs (of the actual radfem kind, not the "calling any transphobe a TERF because I don't know what the acronym means" kind) genuinely just not see anything wrong with the fact that it's the same people who are violently misogynistic and transphobic? That the people who want to outlaw abortions also want to outlaw trans people just existing? I've seen so many of them say that somehow "sex being eroded by those eeeeeevil transes" is what is at fault for the whole Roe v Wade situation, and I KNOW bigotry isn't exactly logical, but I just do not understand? The people who want to outlaw abortions are not pro-trans and are therefore not "complicit" in what they consider to be eroding womanhood??? How do you see trans people being overwhelmingly pro-choice and conservative politicians being anti-choice AND anti-trans and somehow think this is trans people's (and especially trans women's, even though they're not the ones "responsible" for gender-inclusive language in regards to pregnancy anyway) fault???????
In my opinion it's because radfems do the classic reactionary move of putting everyone they don't like in the same mental bucket and thus assuming they're all alligned with each other. You know how republicans lump together radical leftists, spineless liberals, feminists of all stripes, black people, muslims, mexicans, queer people, college professors, and corporate HR departments despite all of those groups a) containing a massive diversity of political perspectives within themselves and b) not alligning with each other as some kind of monolith? That's what radfems have done with right wingers and trans people. "I don't like Group A and I don't like Group B so Group A and B must be on the same side".

✨Introduction!!✨
Hello all! I’m not sharing my real name on here, but you can call me Shay or Shaymin!
I’m multifandom you could say, but lately I’ve been on a massive UTMV resurgence, hehe.
I draw art obviously, including many little pieces of my AU story, Splattertale! Or just my character, Splatter, in general.
(@splattertale is the official side blog :3)
I’m autistic and proud✨✨♾️🌈
My various interests other than UTMV include:
Normal UT/ Deltarune ofc
Pokémon
Kirby
Splatoon
MHA/BNHA
Various awesome animated series (like The Owl House)
MLP
Omori
And many more!!
Though, I’m a person with boundaries just like everyone else, so here’s some stuff I don’t wanna see here under the cut (cuz there’s upsetting topics, but still pls read if ur able)
though there’s one boundary that I know doesn’t need a cut before it, and that is
Don’t Repost My Art
okay although I know this won’t always work.. DNI:
Bigots of any kind (Racists, Homophobes, Transphobes/TERFs, Misogynists, Ableists, etc).
Proshippers, ESPECIALLY if you ship Fontcest, Frans, Dreammare, or any sort of incestuous, pedophilic, or romanticized abusive ships.
And now just some general stuff I’m uncomfortable with that aren’t necessarily DNI:
Sanscest. I.. am not a fan of it (especially Errorink). Or any ships like it. The ONLY exception is Zephyrtop AKA Ink’s Dads and that’s only BECAUSE they have a connection to Ink. If they did not I wouldn’t like the ship either. Even then I don’t even primarily focus on the romantic aspects of those two, moreso just the fact that they are, well, Ink’s adoptive fathers (which is adorable). HOWEVER they are still canonically a couple and I will respect that and treat them as such.
I don’t consider selfcest as bad as real familial incest bc such a concept can’t happen in real life. Cloning to such a degree or inter-universal travel doesn’t exist yet (we don’t even know if a multiverse is real). So you don’t have to DNI if you ship it, just, don’t send me any content of it (Ink’s dads not included, they are always welcome) and just know I won’t be putting anything of it on my blog (again minus Ink’s dads). 😅
NSFW content. I am not that kind of person 😅. Again, if you are of age and like that stuff, go ham! But don’t expect to see it here and don’t send me any sort of suggestive content or messages!
(also please tag it accordingly, I once saw suggestive art of a character I liked that was only tagged with the normal PLATONIC character tags and got jumpscared by it against my will. So yeah pls tag ur stuff like that just in general)

alright i looked at your tags ❤️ here you go assface
1: fuckwit. heh. thanks for the new swear bbg
2: lack of critical thinking?? you’ll agree with anything in the radfem tag. you only read articles and watch news that uses misinformation tactics. you’re no critical thinker.
3: religious groupthink…???? huh? what religion? WHAT RELIGION??? youre the one falling victim to groupthink, to peer pressure.
4: being a cisgender woman doesn’t make you immune to being an asshole, to being a cunt. what the hells wrong with you. youre no sinless god. you’re a human- a human whos chosen to be a cunt
5: MAKING LIGHT OF SUICIDE??? NONONONONO, IM NOT TAKING THIS LIGHTLY, BABY, YOU SHOULD CHANGE OR DIE. and also ‘suicide affects transphobe the worst’ is nothing but further proof that you never look at anything other than misinformation. suicide rates among trans people are by FAR the highest.
1. Enjoy it's an Aussie swear ✌️
2. Actually I was peaked by reading the misogynistic garbage that came out of the mouths of transwomen. For example Andrea Long Chu defines being a woman as "an open mouth, an expectant asshole and blank, blank eyes". I have read books and articles and blog posts from both radfems and transpeople. I don't want to live in an echo chamber, I would much rather expand my knowledge and use my critical thinking to come to my own conclusion. When you expand your scope and look at gender identity as a whole it becomes clear that gender identity ideology is exactly that and an ideology.
3. Which brings me to this point. Gender identity ideology, like all religions, is based on the idea of mind-body dualism. This is the idea that the mind/soul can be separated from the body. You cannot be born in the wrong body because we are our bodies. Gender identity relies on faith, it relies on me believing being a woman/man is somehow connected to an internal sense of femininity/masculinity instead of our physical bodies we are born with. The only thing that makes someone a man/woman is their biology; personality traits, clothing expression, stereotypes, likes and dislikes do not dictate whether someone is a man or a woman. Gender identity ideology is the opposite side of the monotheistic religion coin which asserts that a woman must be feminine (submissive, a good mother ECT) and a man must be masculine (the bread winner, strong, a leader ECT). Gender identity ideology denies reality by asserting that sex is not real and that is has no bearing on our lives. Much like most religions it is science denialist and denies the reality everyone can observe. You also try and include everyone on your religion, even those who do not believe in it. Much like a Christian will call an Atheist a satanist you will call people who observe reality (ie anyone remotely critical of gender ideology) TERFs in order to silence them. Gender ideology even excommunicates people and encourages people to not engage with radfem ideas. Therefore, you create an echo chamber of your ideology (religion) which stops people from being able to detest or even question the ideology without facing social consequences. It's not my job to constantly affirm someone else's identity, particularly when it is built on regressive patriarchal ideas and harms women and LGB people.
4. I know that women can be assholes, but that doesn't mean you should be throwing misogynistic slurs at them ie the cword. Just because a woman disagrees with you or is a bad person doesn't justify misogyny against them. Same goes for all oppressed groups. If a transperson was being awful I wouldn't throw the t-slur at them because that would be a shit thing to do.
5. You are taking this lightly. By telling someone to kill themselves you are perpetuating a culture of making light of suicide. You are removing the gravity of what it means to commit suicide by making it a little throw away comment on a website. It makes people take suicide less seriously, particularly if someone kills themselves because of online bullying and hate. The highest suicide rate is actually men with them accounting for 75%+ of suicide deaths. This varies from country to country. This high rate of death is because men select more violent methods of killing themselves (guns for example) while women who attempt suicide more than any other group are less likely to succeed because they choose non-violent methods (like pills). Trans suicide statistics are difficult to actually look at because the T and the LGB are often grouped together. But needless to say there should be support for all people, trans or not, struggling mentally and with suicidal ideation.

i hate watching youtube stuff on men and/or trans ppl rn bc like trans men are so obviously fucking absent
like i'm watching this guy who's videos are focused on like blackness and manhood and breaking down stuff like that in an intersectional and progressive way and it's awesome but then u get to like his video on dave chappel and i don't think there's been a single mention of trans men (let alone black trans men) so far
even when it's really obvious to.

(2/2) like following on from my last ask (about the lack of like trans men's visibility on youtube) it's not like i'm specifically pissed at him, i think he does great stuff, i'm just pissed that like there's so few visible trans men or trans mens perspectives and even the ones i can think of off the top of my head are all white.
like i just wanna hear from other trans men of color holy shit
Yeah I agree, I'm not a trans men of color but I also wish I got to hear more about their specific experience. Even with the very limited focus trans men and transmasc people get, it always seems to revolve around a very specific kind of trans men and transmascs.
It's a small sample but, for example, I've seen trans men of color on TikTok get a lot more hate and claims of being misogynistic than the average white trans man on that app.
Same thing with fat trans men, especially if they also don't fit the beauty standard. Transphobes think trans men and transmascs being ugly is just a punishment for going on T, so they're extra elated when someone has a receding hairline, fat rolls or doesn't look like a supermodel in general.
Meanwhile, white skinny trans men's comment sections usually have people compliment their looks (which I also don't especially like because it's usually in the really backhanded way cis people compliment us, but it's better than fighting against the average TERF) and transphobes don't feel as encouraged to post hate under those videos because they live off of a mob mentality that crumbles when they feel the crowd is against them.
It's already really frustrating to be a white trans man and feel like you have no direct line of contact with cis people, like we're trapped in a box in the middle of the ocean, so I can't even imagine how frustrating it would be to be part of an even smaller subgroup that often doesn't even get visibility from the white side of the community.

I believe that Kendall would call Shiv a TERF in an argument as a gotcha and she would get very angry and defensive about how of course she considers herself to be an ally to trans people in some vague nebulous way, while Roman who does not know nor care what a TERF is keeps deliberately riling up both of them from the side for fun
Ok this is difficult because it really depends on the context that this gets brought up. Like, the way Shiv would respond depends on how the topic of trans people has made her think about her own gender. Shiv's relationship to womanhood is quite complicated and I do still think she doesn't not identify with it but, she also doesn't feel any strong connection to it either. She would see the social conditions of womanhood as imposed on her but, her womanhood proper as being unimportant; however, I think that she also thinks that womanhood isn't a choice you can make because the conditions imposed on her are misogynistic. There's no reason she'd choose that because it's obviously disadvantageous but, she also doesn't feel any desire or need to not be a woman. Really, I don't think she thinks very hard about this. If she thinks about it for more than like 10 minutes, the transphobia sets in, though.
Since I made that list, I've thought more about how transphobic each character would be and well, Kendall has more potential than I initially thought but, it really could go either way depending on the context. I'm mostly saying this because I remembered that weird comment he made about Roman jerking off in Rava's panties. It was pretty mean and he's lucky Roman didn't hear that but, it's obviously one of those things where Shiv and Kendall attempt to bond over not being "perverts" like Roman allegedly is. The interesting thing here is how Kendall frames Roman's perversion. Him saying that Roman gets off on feminising himself (not being forcefemmed by someone else) is... cutting it real fucking close. Kendall identifies Roman's perversion as being tied to his femininity but, he can't really understand what that means. So, it becomes that Roman fetishes his own femininity which obviously, isn't really true. Roman desires to be seen by others that way but he's not attracted to femininity itself.
I think Kendall doesn't understand the point of wanting to be wanted in that way despite subconsciously also wanting that to a significantly lesser degree. Like even outside of sexuality proper (though this is obviously tangentially related), Kendall sees himself more as being Daddy's Best Knight or whatever even though that's obviously still submissive. Kendall thinks this makes sense and if they didn't live in Logan's world, yeah it does. Roman, however, wants to be Daddy's Little Princess and that's a role that doesn't fucking exist so, it's kind of unthinkable to most of them. The Roys would probably all share the opinion that this hypothetical role is inherently degrading. Shiv is not that because in Logan's mind, she's basically an angel because to him, she's practically the metaphysical essence of purity (until she reminds him that she is a person with her own mind). Shiv doesn't have a body and her use isn't in her body either aside from some vague acknowledgement of her being a cis woman via being his Only Daughter. Roman's hypothetical use as Daddy's Little Princess would be (in a purely platonic aesthetic sense), at least in part. Logan, of course, would never ever subject any of his children to the horror of knowing your own body (even though conceiving them already did that). Logan would NOT call a child, let alone his OWN children, "cute" because he is NOT a sicko pervert nonce.

honestly a relief to hear that you didnt know about it! the petty infighting is exhausting and feels so universal when youve been in spaces where it is the way of things. and yeah you nailed it with the supposition that trans men have it easier bc we arent always actively demonized the way trans women are in the current transphobic zeitgeist... for some reason people have flatly accepted the narrative "terfs want to Save females from transition" as if forced detransition and medical neglect and sexual violence (among other violences) to Fix us into being breeding stock is something to be happy and humble and quiet about. and further as if trans men *arent* ever demonized as predators seducing away young women -- we get called lost lesbians and butches, but the butches and lesbians of yesteryear were also predators seducing girls away from proper womanhood. and thats not even getting into baeddelist horseshit. its all so maddening.
This is something me and my mom talk about sometimes.
My step-mom fell down the alt-right pipeline, so she's constantly spewing some garbage about how transgenders are a threat to children, even going so far as to lightly suggest I was a pedophile when I came out to her. But my mom acknowledged a trend in that regard.
Gay men were seen as pedophiles in the last moral panic. Trans women will be seen as pedophiles in this moral panic, until it ends. I think it's fair to call this the misandristic side of homophobia. We are perceived as queer men, so we are persecuted in a way that applies to queer men: accusations of pedophilia. So, it's interesting to me to see how it works on the misogynistic side of homophobia.
Also, I find it really funny that lesbians, and now trans men, are accused of seducing girls away from their "proper" lives, because in my mind the only way that would work is if the lesbians and trans men have better fucking lifestyles. You can't exactly seduce someone without being tempting, can you? Don't point that out to a TERF though, because if you do they'll internalize it and god only knows what would come from that...
Anyway, yeah, fuck all of this. If trans men are so dangerous(?) to trans women then I'll just wait to get bit in the ass by one, which presently hasn't happened.
At the very least, it seems way more useful to direct our attention towards the actual threat to our existence posed by transphobic legislators instead of to random trans people who are threatened by the same things as us but might also be a threat somehow in some shaky way that doesn't make any fucking sense.

Something that has been on my mind is the way that this website is full of people who want to oppose TERFs more than they want to defend trans people and we are never gonna succeed by applying this method.
So many people have taken the stance that all TERFs are wrong about every belief they hold, that anything they say is one slippery slope into Nazism, and that is a fundamental misunderstanding of why TERFs are able to draw people to their side and how it is they operate.
TERFs are dangerous because they will tell you 99 truths to make you believe one lie.
TERFs appeal to potential converts by holding a LOT of the same beliefs and convictions that most of us who fall on the political left and who support social justice movements do.
So when a stealth TERF says something like "makeup bloggers, shady self-care gurus, and tiktok influencers getting plastic surgery who all appeal to one white western beauty standard isn't good for impressionable teens to be consuming constantly," and your response is to reactionarily oppose what they're saying because they're a TERF ala "fuck off, makeup rules and plastic surgery is great," you've fallen for their trap.
Because they've said something relatively sane sounding, and you've made yourself look like the unhinged one with shitty politics. And the person who hasn't been exposed to these TERF talking points and stealth missions, who also feels like maybe being bombarded by shallow looks-obsessed media isn't good for young girls' self-image, has one of two choices: believe what they see right in front of them, or take your word for it that OP is the secret villain and somehow you, who appear to hold the same values as a Fox News host, are right.
Like, some of the takes I have seen people on tumblr promote JUST to oppose a radfem are literally like something straight out of a Republican dude-bro's MAGA reddit channel. Telling women concerned about sexual assault and rape they're being sexist against men. That ANY discussion about patriarchy is transphobic and should be shut down. That all concerns about sexualizing women without their consent, or the role of violence in the porn industry, are just prudish anti-sex propaganda.
We are losing ground by ignoring what WE stand for in favor of only paying attention to what radfems stand for and opposing it. This is the exact tactic we mock Republicans and Democrats for doing, running a campaign based solely on what your opponent is doing wrong without offering any solutions or positions on issues. "TERF bad!" is not an ideology! "Trans people are human beings who deserve the same rights as their cisgender peers," is an ideology.
One thing I love to see is someone finding a good post by a radfem and refusing to engage with it, and potentially spreading OP's blog to more people, and instead making a whole new post with the same point that ISN'T going to potentially lead people down the radfem pipeline. Hell you can even leave a link to the new post in the replies of the original. I know saying "OP is right about this topic but they're a radfem so block them" probably doesn't feel as good as just leaving "die radfem scum" but when the topic is "women should be able to walk alone at night without being afraid" are you really doing a service to our cause by looking like you disagree with that? TERFs WANT to spread the message that trans people and their allies hate cis women and are a danger to them. Don't do their work for them...
It fucking SUCKS playing their game. It feels like being baited into a no-win situation. But making yourself look like a traditional misogynist isn't an L you have to take. There are other approaches.

the more others talk about it, the more i let my brain open back up to it and think-- yeah, actually, why is it okay to tell trans guys that the only violence they experience is that of misdirected misogyny? like it's always some incidental thing-- like "because it's wrongly targeted, it doesn't hurt you. because it's misogyny, it's actually blasting past you and harming women as a block. they're using you to hold women back. but you are unharmed in the process."
even if that were true of all possible intent and aim... why is it perfectly acceptable to misgender one's experience of that pain and struggle? and let everything else without a name go unacknowledged like it isn't worth collectively working at. put another way: why is everyone so comfortable with trans men being hurt as women, but so profoundly uncomfortable with anything specific to Trans (integral space here) Men?
this crops up over and over as a footnote when it comes to BL/fujoshi, because some people will entertain that trans men do get harassed as well for what they make; transphobes/TERFs trying to remind them they're "just" straight women or "just" self-denying lesbians. but that's a pretty simplistic summary. i mean for one, it means all sides get to continue thinking cis women have at every point been the fanfiction vanguard WITHOUT any trans people, and that's just not true. but it also requires taking transphobes/TERFs at their word, and not interrogating anything deeper than that. certainly not interrogating your own thinking toward trans men.
if trans men are targeted for being trans men, that should matter too. otherwise it gives way too much credence to that TERF ideology, it prioritises their own stupid reasoning and excuses and intent over the person harmed. it's possible to be misogynist, and, also, hate trans men specifically, seek them out, and hurt them, on purpose, even if you "see" (??) or don't contest that they're men. it actually pays off, because the issues and experiences specific to trans men are a no-man's land (ha ha)-- here be dragons, a dark space on a map no one visits.
it of course translates to a revulsion of "masculinising." not revolted by the sacred vulva, and building strong communities of solidarity around women as an oppressed group. but those groups also don't prioritise trans women, especially if they're "non-passing" or just not considered up to par with the even more viciously strict beauty standards for transsexuals. there is a broad fear of Wrongness, and if barred from what community may offer, wrongness is life-threatening.
cis and trans people alike take serious issue with things like hair and fat, even. and they will create and recreate taxonomies of goodness and badness + unrelatability based on appearance. if appearance doesn't 1:1 match life experience, that unrelatability is met with hostility. it is a revulsion of what happens to a trans body and the way we describe our trans bodies and our attractions and the sex we have and how we talk about ourselves. when the body no longer resemble some fantasy of the familiar. the transsexual body and the person operating it fall into a completely incomprehensible territory in a society where non-normative bodies are unacceptable. and yet, the trans man (in this case) exists. there is so much andwringing around t-dicks and phalloplasty, fatness, fuckability-based respect that even retroactively alters what the rest of the community expects and accepts from you when it comes to your own life. it is egregiously simple-- egregious for many reasons, especially among people who do not have a perfect linear gender experience or living conditions or relationship to reality. these are all things anyone can experience. and there are certain things that do become patterns, and trans men are some of those affected in often similar ways. and so...
it isn't as if the rest of the world hears your decision and bends to you. and although love and support and solidarity is in no way familiar to my experience-- if love and support persist conditionally up until the moment of transition, i really do not think misogyny is the ultimate motivator.
there are plenty of people who aren't TERFs who don't like trans men. and they see and believe trans men as who they say they are, people who along with their communities agree they have done the important feminist work of undoing any misogynistic conditioning. there has to be language to describe what happens to trans men in these areas that are unknown to everyone else. it isn't meant to be language that works for everyone else. it isn't functioning on their behalf, but for the people within that group to describe their experiences.
or what. you just shut up? because it's nicer? prolong disconnect from community and support and inclusive + expansive language, and be deferential and passive? it's pretty fucked to assign a moral imperative to shutting down your pain and the instinct to communicate that pain. if there are patterns at work here, and if identifying them helps form unity and build solidarity, even if the language is "difficult" (and why wouldn't it be, for a complicated situation?) it's desperately important to acknowledge it.
otherwise you have to see people in such a rotten way to think it's like... subtraction from the whole. that each action takes from another and what motivates trans men is greed for some precious attention span-- and that speaking or just living comes with no risks to our person or community. you have to be so sheltered to think there's some objective reward sought after by trying to talk about transness. you have to dissolve all other marginalising factors. given what a fucking headache it's been to even attempt navigating this topic-- i think it's more likely that more people stand to gain from enforcing silence.
and certainly, it's to the detriment of building community. if there's no room for even the most "strange" and "exceptional" experiences then how much room is there really?

Even if you see this from trans and wlw people in your community, the idea that yaoi is historically by and for straight woman is transphobic and misogynistic. It's a terf, especially white terf talking point and has been so for decades. It's also a xenophobic idea that stems from things like the mindset that queer poc don't exist, or lgbt+ thoughts and identities are a recent development in non-white communities, and double standards for any art form created by people of color. Yes, fetishization still happens, but the discussion never reaches any conclusion when one side continues to hold onto disinformation and prejudice. Fudanshi didn't even exist to many western queers, even now they're erased from the conversation or demonized quite often. Anti-fujoshi/ fudanshi/ bl narratives have been debunked by fans and scholars alike. If you're open to other perspectives, start there, start questioning your own beliefs and don't be surprised at the amount of terf/ conservative ideologies the permeate queer space, regardless of identities ethnicity or age. I'm not a follower btw, apologies if I don't see your replies often.
I don't understand how that idea is transphobic, misogynistic and a terf talking point. Would you care to expand on that? I get how it could be xenophobic, which is why I always try to be careful in that aspect without being patronizing and speaking over eastern queer people. But I don't get how it's a conservative idea to point out it has generally been that way, especially in the past. Which, again, isn't necessarily a bad thing unless the content is fetishizing and has no purpose of promoting queer representation and rights. Is it because it feels like an attack on women who write and enjoy mlm stories? Is it because those women aren't always cis or aren't always women? Because if that is the case, I am very aware of the wide variety of people who nowadays write BL. But, because of my understanding that yaoi was different, I believed that was the case with yaoi at least.
Y, de verdad, no entiendo how it could be a terf talking point.
Because I keep repeating myself, my stance is this: I don't mind that women write BL. Whatever. I consume BLs written by women, men, non binary people. What I do have a problem with is fetishization and when non queer people profit off harmful queer stories without ever advocating for lgbtqia+ rights.
