*grabs your hands and speaks to you in a tone that is so gentle* they/them pronouns stop being universal once you learn a person's pronouns. Sometimes that person's pronouns will include they/them and in that specific case you are allowed to keep using those pronouns for that person. In any case where you learn a persons pronouns and that person doesn't use they/them, you should no longer use those pronouns for that person. If you continue to use they/them pronouns knowing that person doesn't use them, you are now misgendering that person. Kindly stop doing that please. Thank you, I love you.

"You can't say trans men experience misogyny! You're saying they aren't men if you say that!" spoiler alert everyone experiences misogyny in some way! Not just people who identify as women! Hope that helps dumbass

Like. Oh no. Society sees me as a woman because Im unable to begin any form of transitioning right now. Im victim of sexism and misogyny as a Man who is Transgender because the people around me view me as a girl. Oh, but because im a trans man, Im actually not affected by this at all! And actually, it's benefitting me to be treated like im less than all my male peers! Wow. Thank you, so much for that. I had no idea being dehumanized by sexism and misogyny was actually a good thing that im not negatively affected by. Thank you, transandrophobia deniers, for that insight. Fucking idiots

So many of the "trans men can't have X trans joke" arguments really just feel like a spoiled child who doesn't want to share their toy. Like. Idk. Get over it or something. Get a job maybe. Worry about something that like, actually matters. Go outside, touch some grass, read a book that isn't on a screen, and you might start to care about shit that actually affects anyone ever at all instead of a joke that at the end of the day genuinely does not affect you if a trans man uses it.

Blatantly stealing this image from that massive collection of screenshots, but this one in particular is pissing me off.

Do you people seriously think trans men don’t have severe social pressure to never ever consider that they might be men? Do you think transphobia as a whole only applies to trans women? What do you think happens when a trans man comes out, that the whole family gets together to throw a fucking party or some shit?

The beginning was just kind of silly and operates on the presumption that we can’t at least share a community in-joke about a shared or at the very least similar experience. But the part about “no extreme social pressures” is just an enraging load of horse shit. I get that trans women faced pressure to live as men and that’s awful. Now please realize that not everyone is pressured to live as men and some of us were actually heavily pressured to live as women and this is still awful.

I fucking hate radfems they’re trying to use the frustration I feel towards transandrophobia perpetuated by fellow trans people to try to turn me against trans women it’s fucking gross fuck off guys if you see them in the tag or on your posts DO NOT FALL FOR IT AND BLOCK. I already fell down the radfem pipeline once and have talked about how horrible it was and I’ll be DAMNEDDDD if I let that happen again or to anyone else. Fuck their attempts at validation. It’s to try to indoctrinate you into their belief system. Remember that while yes, some trans women are transandrophobic, there’s tons who aren’t and support us🤍

so are you a will wood trans guy or a mother mother trans guy or a ROAR trans guy or an alex g trans guy or a lemon demon trans guy or a cavetown trans guy or. wait. all these music stereotypes for trans men are connected to 2020/2021, when everyone was younger and cringe culture was at its height.

maybe the problem isn't the "cringe" trans men. maybe it's the people who stereotype trans men as being cringe.

please do not derail this post. this post is about trans men and transandrophobia.

if you tell an indigenous trans man to cut his long hair so that he "passes better" then im tying you to an anchor and dropping you in the middle of the ocean

It's very depressing seeing that small percentage of people who genuinely hate trans mascs and trans men be so, well, hateful. Do you really have nothing better to do with your life than to further divide a community that is already being murdered for existing? In the name of what? "Activism"?

tumblr is so america centric its crazy. shut up about "trans men dont have struggles because people ignore them". just admit you live in a place where theres not many out trans men and mascs, especially in conservative areas. consider that those trans men and mascs might be trapped in the mormon church which is famously misogynistic. you live in hell with no guaranteed abortion access and a dictator, perhaps youd understand transmasculine theory if they werent forced to be house wives because of the extremist christian cults the rest of us are horrified by. i go outside and theres visibly trans people everywhere. is there really a lack of or ignorance of any group of trans people? or are they being sent to conversion therapy?

"You can't be a tomboy anymore because 'they' (trans people?? The government who hates trans people??) force tomboys to transition to men" "Butches transition because they're insecure about their womanhood, trans men aren't really a thing."

Meanwhile every tomboy, butch or gnc woman I've talked to: "Nobody accepts how I present myself as a woman, so they (largely cis people) constantly try to feminise me and make assumptive statements about my gender. I'm perfectly happy being a woman and largely face no pressure to become a man from the trans community or otherwise, focus is instead on rejecting my masculinity entirely to be a 'real woman'."

Guess who I'm going to believe.

if you unironically use TMA/TME labels: blocked

if you refer to trans men as "birthday boys": blocked

if you say men and masculinity are inherently violent: mega blocked!!!

"trans men/mascs who want to be included in womens social spaces are actually women because they want to be included in womens social spaces! if they were REALLY men, they wouldnt want that at all!" incorrect!: being a little pissbaby about womens social spaces being for women and not for men is like the most "man" complaint possibly in the entire world lol. like yeah people are pretty off-base in describing transandrophobia guys as being exactly like cis mras because they are frequently very different, but this is like THE cis mra complaint of all time so. lmao, no, i dont think entitlement to the spaces, resources, and support of women is anything new or exciting for men and most certainly it does not indicate that they are "actually" women at all lmao.

"womens social spaces, often run for and by cis women that are transphobic, will often include trans men/mascs/trans people afab on the false, bioessentialist and transphobic premise that we are women or are at least as vulnerable as a woman due to the presumed state of our genitals/internal sex organs, and most of the cis women who advocate for our inclusion are doing so on that basis, and the trans men who take advantage of that transphobic inclusion (whether intentionally or not) reinforce those same ideas, particularly around the inherent vulnerability of people afab in the presence of people amab, ideas that are then used in these spaces to exclude women amab, overpolice/place undue scrutiny on their language and behavior, and/or make them feel unwelcome in general, pushing them out of these spaces more subtly, whether you like it or not. after all, if its too dangerous for a man afab to be amongst men amab, then why would a woman afab be safe around a woman amab? which is why the behavior is considered to be problematic and the lack of acknowledgement such a blatant display of the unexamined social privilege that people afab have in spaces dominated by cis women and other people afab is considered kind of fucked up, all things considered" thats the spice baby lol
