Sometimes i want to make jokes like "girlhood is rising your pussy for 5 minutes straight so you dont get blood on the towel" but I dont want to exclude trans girls :[[[

Calling Lesbians' attraction to vaginas a mere genital "preference" erases the sheer violence behind corrective rape of millions of sapphic women. I do not just "dislike" dick, I am physically incapable of being attracted to it. My allure to the female genitilia is not a choice, it's my biological reality. Dismissal of same-sex attraction as a choice reinforces the homophobic ideology that attractions can be altered and also paves the way for discrimination. One cannot opt out of their sexuality, they are always born with it.

the reason it's a bad thing to only talk about a certain group of people when it benefits your argument is that it shows that you don't actually care about us as people. you can bring us up in an argument if the argument calls for it. whatever. but using an entire community as a gotcha and then attacking that same community when they ask for rights and recognition is complete bullshit. you don't get to use us as an argument if you clearly only see us as a thought experiment and nothing more

choosing violence 10 + 16 + 22 !!!! >:333

ok u didnt specify a fandom but im just gonna do this for pd because its front and center in my mind !!!!!! oh boy i cant wait to be crucified for my opinions

10. worst part of fanon

this is a problem with every jrwi campaign and also like. most . other fandoms to be real. but it seems like my favorite characters are always the ones that get the worst of the mischaracterization beam -_- i cant tell you HOW MANY fics ive opened bc the premise sounds cool only to IMMEDIATELY close it due to "he would not fucking say that" this isnt pd but if i have to read one more fic that infantilizes gillion for not understanding Land Things im going to blow up. hes stupid sometimes yeah! but hes not ignorant and hes not a baby hes like. literally the oldest one on the crew even if its only by a year or two. head in hands

16. you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

ok im gonna get burnt at the stake for this one but i personally dont really see the appeal of tfem ashe... like i see the appeal yeah of course i do i just dont get why people are so like... weirdly forceful and passive aggressive about it? also this is totally a personal thing no hate to anyone that does this but its kind of a peeve of mine when ppl write analysis posts ans use their headcanon pronouns like.... if u are going to talk about and analyze canon then talk about canon !!!! i cant tell u how many good ashe posts ive skipped over bc im like. we are talking about different characters here .. respect to ashe tfemers and everything but its not for me

22. your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores

THERE IS A DISTURBING LACK OF CLARENCE ALBERT FAN CONTENT. WHY ARE PEOPLE NOT MORE INSNAE ABOUT CLARENCE ALBERT. HELLO???? am i the only person that feels this way . can anyone hear me its so fucking dark in here. every day i just want to read a fic about clarence albert and i am met with this

i do not enjoy harry potter anymore and even when i did, snape was not a character i ever liked, but for some reason my ‘for you’ page is just full of dedicated snape stan accounts and i hate it

Also someone tell werewolfnews on Twitter to unblock me and tell me thanks for outing the terf she's been breaking bread with.

Remember to not buy into the "hate men" ideology.

[drakkonyan]

Reminder that hating humans is not an alternative to loving nature. You add nothing by saying you wish human kind went extinct. You add nothing by saying humans are irredimable monsters. You are helping no harmed animal nor plant nor fungi nor microorganism by shitting on humans and, as a nature lover, you are my least favorite kind of "nature lover" because you don't like nature, you hate humans

ALSO. I KNOW IM GOING HAM ABOUT AMATONORMATIVITY RIGHT NOW. BUT THE AGENCY OF WOMEN IS ALSO SUCH A BIG THING THAT I AM ALSO THINKING ABOUT.

like!! The thing that gets all of them out is Jeha’s refusal to see chaerin as a romantic object. The insistence that chaerin and huisu are NOT in fact interchangeable even if they’re in the same body/running the same story because. Fundamentally. They are different people. And ALSO because. You cannot love an object like a person. And a fictional character can never be anything but an object.

but also! The way it acknowledges that not only is it fucked up to be put in a romance story and then forced to play along for a happy ending (I can and am making allegorical comparisons to real life here) it’s also. Fucked up to have the person you were in love with replaced with someone who is not the same amount of real person as you and ALSO completely dependent on you for their happiness.

hm the! Interconnectedness of misogyny and amatonormativity and the insistence that women can be and are social currency (if you have read Ace by Angela Chen: chapter five and the deconstruction of performative sexuality wrt male gender roles and incel culture DOES apply here!) as well as the idea that you can ‘win’ life by achieving a heterosexual marriage (your romantic life is also social currency) and the way that that concept is so carefully thematically decimated.

To this day I believe wholeheartedly that JKR decided not to write Draco switching sides when offered by Dumbledore or asking Snape to help him switch sides, because she knew she’d write Draco and Harry falling in love with each other (intentionally/unintentionally). She would have a hard time writing them as the characters she created for them and not having feelings of care and understanding for each other. It would be simply impossible unless she obliviated them both lol.

as someone who at one point considered tigermotif/graham a friend, i have watched her interact platonically, romantically, and sexually with trans women. i have seen her claim to openly support trans women and transfems while keeping her true beliefs a secret. she lied to and fooled hundreds of people. those who called her out (or really anyone who interacted with her) clearly would have not done so if they knew she was a terf. it is not their fault that they fell for her lies and manipulation. however, accusing people who called her out of being terfs/complicit in allowing her to maintain her platform when they clearly were just as fooled as everyone else is not productive at all. she has vile, disgusting beliefs which she hid so she could still receive attention from our community. direct your energy at actually supporting trans women and transfems, especially those who interacted with her directly.

[mishkakagehishka]

heyyy, not sure if you were aware, but the op of that "girlhood isn't walks of shame" post is like. ACTUALLY a terf :x

Worm, i checked through the account a bit now and it does seem to be radfemmy, but like. I hope this won't get misunderstood, but i feel like it'd be a bit dishonest for me to delete a rb of a post i agreed with with the reasoning being "i don't agree with everything the op has said" yknow? If that makes sense. A post criticising tiktok bimbocore feminism is a post i agree with, regardless of who made it

[the-dear-skull]

Are TERFs just insecure? Like, they see trans women being confident in their womanhood. While trans men and non-binary people accept that their birth gender wasn't for them, and, I don't want to say get jealous, but kind of feel like it's impossible for anyone to like themselves. Then construct all these conspiracy theories because no one could possibly like womanhood, but also no one could possibly escape womanhood.

Which is probably why there's so few TERFs, because most people struggling with their gender understand others aren't.
