There is something so deeply sinister and evil about people denying that society imposes a gender onto you and then you can suffer oppression based on that gender. Like yes of course transfems do experience misogyny but you cannot act like we don’t because… we very much do. Denying that is misogynistic in its own right. Believe me I’d love to never have to be catcalled in the street by men thrice my age but that’s never gonna happen because no matter how boyish I get with it, that’s all I’ll ever be to them. A dyke. A weird, broken, and useless dyke.

It doesn’t matter how many times I tell people I’m masc and a guy, none of that matters when I’m walking outside at night through the streets of my neighbourhood just trying to get home and all the sleazy men in their vans with their blackout windows are driving around try to pick up a prostitute and they stare at me and I have to sprint in platform boots to avoid getting abducted and raped by some greaseball.

It doesn’t matter what pronouns are on the pin I put on my backpack because today when a tampon (wrapped, brand new, obviously never used) fell out of my bag, and a self-proclaimed “male feminist” made a gagging noise at me.

It doesn’t matter whether I tell people to call me Anita or Antonio, because either way, I’m going to get called a dirty slag when “jokes” about me sleeping with a teacher run around the school.

None of this would happen to someone who society views as a guy.

Using "afab" as a replacement for "girl" in insults still makes you misogynistic. Using "pussy" or "uterus" or "vagina" or "hysto-" or literally any term commonly associated with bodies that are considered feminine in your insults still makes you misogynistic btw. Please remember that next time you go calling people cuntboys and theyfabs.

Dumb question- what is the character in your header and icon? I love them! They look vaguely familiar but I can't place it.

Her name's SweetyPuss, she used to be Hot Topic's mascot a while back but for some reason they nuked her and stopped using her :(

I'm convinced the downfall of HT came when they got rid of SweetyPuss. Anyway, here's more pictures of her :)

sex is not supposed to be about what you can tolerate!!!!! sex is supposed to be about what you genuinely want and enjoy!!!!! and if you’re traumatized and/or not straight, believe me, I know it’s not that simple to figure out what it is that you actually want and enjoy.

you’re not a bad person if you do something that you don’t particularly enjoy because, for example, it makes your partner happy, but always remember: you have no obligation to engage in sexual activities that you don’t fully like and enjoy. 

and you don’t ever, ever need to justify that - if your partner has an issue with “It makes me kind of uncomfortable” or “I don’t really like it”, then that person does not deserve a moment of your time, in or outside of the bedroom. you don’t have to prove yourself to anyone; you don’t have to meet anyone’s standards of acceptable vs. unacceptable activity (or lack thereof); you don’t have to force yourself to be comfortable with something because of any perceived political connotations of performing or refusing that act.

saying yes because you feel guilty about saying no is not consent. saying yes because you’re scared of what will happen if you say no is not consent. saying yes because you figure you might as well just endure it is not consent. sex ed on here and elsewhere doesn’t give a single shit about traumatized people and I wish someone had told me all of this a lot sooner.

seeing people on the internet hate on transmascs in such a specific way that i can tell they're just doing it like "i hate this cringe little blue haired woke weird girl who smells bad and makes me look cringe and fake. no one will ever fuck her. because i see transmascs as annoying women who want to be special and it's so embarrassing for them" bonus points if its from a another transmasc who passes and is embarrassed of everyone else

Trans Men, the afterthought of the LGBT.

Think of the world "LGBT" in your mind. What flashes through? I see a quick rifling through four people like a slideshow... a chubby cis gay guy, a tall cis lesbian with killer eyeliner, a short cis girl with a kooky hairstyle, and a trans woman. What she looks like varies every time, but 90% of cases I think of a girl. Even as a trans man myself whose trans friends are like two-thirds trans men, the first thing I think of when I hear the word "trans" is usually a trans woman. When hear HRT? Estrogen. When hear SRS? Vaginoplasty.

And that's not a coincidence... because trans guys don't dominate any trans spaces unless it's specifically labelled an ftm-only space. I've seen trans women themselves point out that trans boy spaces are labelled as "ftm" while trans girl spaces are labelled "trans". No "fem" or "girl" or "woman" anywhere in the name - just "trans".

Think of trans rep on TV. Trans people are already incredibly underrepresented - but on the rare occasion we do get shown onscreen, it's always someone MTF. I could give a million examples - but there are already many people who've said the exact same thing and doing so at this point would be redundant.

Think of spaces that say "This is for females ONLY" (sometimes they say "women" but really mean "cis women"). Nobody ever thinks of the trans men who might find themselves in a position to need that resource (such as homeless shelters) who will invariably be denied because TERFs hate trans men too and despite whatever they claim, they do not actually see us as girls. The response to "female-only spaces" is "but what about trans women". Which is GOOD! It should keep being a response! It should keep raising questions! It should, however, not be the only question we're asking here!

Think of "women's health" issues. Even then, the conversation around inclusive language always revolves around "but some girls don't do that because they're trans" (which is a good thing on its own but it's not good as an exclusive variant) and not "but some people do that and aren't girls because they're trans". Even in conversations about uteruses and everything they revolve, it's always centred around "but not all women" instead of "not all are women".

Lastly, think of radical feminism. Think of so-called internet "misandrists". Think of how many times you've seen one, whether cis or trans, ever include the word "cis" in their classic "all men" posts. Never? Exactly. And when you call them out on it, their response is almost always some kind of variant of "well you know that's not what I meant". And it's true most times, they didn't mean it; they forgot it. Forgot about us. Like every single time, they forget we see these things and feel hurt. They forget we're there. To them, we might as well be a flower on the wall.

Anyway. Just wanted to type this out because it's been bouncing around my head for a while. Happy late trans visibility day. Not only this week but for the rest of your life I want you to listen to and amplify trans men's voices; they need it.

i cant be the only one really fucking creeped out about the amount of horny posts in online queer nsft spaces (cougTWITTERcoughcough) about being like. in your 30s and making an 18/19 year old with no supportive family into your ""pet"" whose financially dependent on you. right? right??

[trannycabal]

Thank you for your post about forced impregnation and its effect on transmascs. Those of us who have had to give birth without a desire to or while living out our worst nightmare the entire time get ignored and erased so often

I'm glad I could make you feel seen but it's super sad to see this,,,

I hope things have gotten better for you. Sending lotsa love from here :( ❤️❤️

It's all just a way for the trans community to shit on transmascs more, and then dodge accountability by saying “but they're NOT transmascs”. Like yea they aren't but YOU'RE linking the two together in an attempt to demonise actual transmascs. So?

I can’t be the only who hates when people call those detrans grifter cis women ‘detransitioned transmascs’. These are cis women who wore a binder for like 6-months and now call themselves ‘detrans’. They aren’t trans men. They aren’t transmascs. They are cisgender women who are taking advantage of the recent explosion of anti-trans rhetoric as a way to gain money.

It really feels like they are blaming trans men for the actions of cis women. These are cis women who are harming trans men, trying to take away trans men’s bodily autonomy.

H hhhh he's not wrong,,,,

Seeing shit that completely rewrites recent online trans history makes me so frustrated because I was there!!!!!!

Like what do you mean "theyfab was coined by frustrated transfems to express their frustration with transmisogynist nonbinary people"???? I was literally getting called a transtrender theyfab by 4channers as a 15 year old in 2013 because I was a feminine nonbinary kid with a dyed undercut??? In 2016 I was a shithead 18 year old that hated itself and was calling other trans people transtrender theyfabs to try and validate myself????????

It's literally a term born out of misogyny and the idea that feminine nonbinary people who were afab are faking being trans???????????

I didn't escape the depths of 2010's transmedicalism in my early 20's and start dedicating my time towards trying to repair the damage I and others caused just for y'all to completely rewrite that history to try and justify your own hatred of other trans people 😭

scratch a trf, an intersexist transandrophobic misogynist bleeds

[trannycabal]

What Could Have Been...

[trannycabal]

is that trans man actually "misgendering himself" and "weaponizing his agab" or is he just talking about his experiences from being raised as a girl?
