such a large portion of the disabled community is some flavor of trans which is a shame bc the trans community is so overtly hostile to disabled women and our needs, and trans ideology is diametrically opposed to ethical, feminist medicine. at the same time radfem spaces can be very unwelcoming to disabled women, but it's also the only space where we're even allowed to mention female-specific healthcare, so where do we go

#one thing i noticed w my new insurance is that all of the ~in-network providers~ near me are male #meanwhile i just saw a radfem saying ''[usamericans] shut up about your healthcare. no one cares''#and some of you have an unsettling focus on being a ''productive'' member of society that's too-often equated w value in a capitalist sense #then there's the slurs #but the larger disabled community basically coddles men the same way the trans community does #and i can't put up w that shit at all
