"transmisandry" is a dead-end term. Anti-transmasculinity is real, though, and helps us understand the oppression trans men face for failing to fit into hegemonic masculinity, and the coercive corrective punishments they often face pretransition for not reproducing femininity.
Can't fool me, Mouse! I can smell the queerbaiting from a mile away. If this movie actually lets these characters be queer, if there's even one kiss between them, I'll print this tweet out and eat it.
Hunter Schafer says "Iβve gotten offered tons of trans roles, and I just donβt want to do it. I donβt want to talk about it.β
"Now I just want to be a girl and finally move on...I know for a fact that Iβm one of the most famous trans people in media right now, and I do feel aβ¦
This reality is insane and here we are in 2021 and this hasnβt been solved. Thankful for the efforts of the

"Love Lies Bleeding sexualizes lesbians for the male gaze" there is an intimate scene where Kristen Stewart gives her bodybuilder girlfriend a testosterone injection. I don't think straight men could even comprehend the sex in this film, it was not made for them
"Jewish people were the only ones targeted and killed" is a form of Holocaust denial by the way, flattening the vast horror of the Nazi regime, which targeted primarily Jewish people but also Roma, Slavic people, communists, queer people, etc.
"testosterone will make you attracted to men" "estrogen will make you attracted to men" The math isn't adding up! Y'all are just really obsessed with men!

Seriously. Liz, I have ridden hard as fuck for you. For literally over four years.
The progressive movement needs you to pivot away from the establishment. Do the right thing.
This is still so nutty to me because there's a whole bunch of theory jargon when the reality is "you are responsible for people you bring around to the function"
Bimisogyny is bi women imagined as extensions of cishet men rather than people. Their entire personhood and humanity is denied in favor of subordinate existence.
If this sounds like classic misogyny, let me say once again that bi women bear the brunt of it. We carry it sevenfold
@AndrewYang
Bernie Sanders fought all of yesterday singlehandedly against the GOP senators threatening to kill the bill.
Because of him, the efficacy of a UBI is going to be nationally tested.
Biden was nowhere to be seen.
Revoke your endorsement and endorse Bernie.
#BernieOrBust2020
90% of Berners went and voted for Hillary in 2016. AND YOU ALL SPENT 5 YEARS TRASHING THEM.
I don't think they'll make the same mistake and vote for Joe Biden this time around.
Bernie IS already the compromise candidate.
So much of r/dykeconversion is cishet men fantasizing about lesbians liking dick. And let me tell you as a trans woman that it's definitely not dick that's the problem. It's that you're men, and you're gross.
Bernie Sanders should be president.
As hard as I try, I cannot let go of this. Older Democrats ripped our future away because of their love of corporate media, and I can never unsee that betrayal.
being on hormones is wild because terfs will call you a "biological male" while you have c cups and get mammograms or a "biological female" while you're developing prostate tissue and a whole beard. like maybe you don't know what "biological" means
"hrt makes you attracted to men" " yuri/gl sexualizes women for men" "all butchfemme relationships are just reproducing heterosexuality" Starting to think you people are obsessed with men and cannot conceive of a positionality that doesn't center men.
Deliberately using queer and queer-adjacent aesthetics in "best friend" stories is a feature of comphet! Teaching young women that it's normal to basically be in love with your female friends but never actually in relationships or having sex with other women!
As the resident AOC defender who loses like 50 followers every time I say something she did was okay... don't waste time defending this. It's morally repugnant.
We joke like "are men attracted to women?" when these guys crawl out of the gutter but the answer is that they are not. Men aren't attracted to women (real people), they are attracted to Women (ideal, submissive, unequal to Man).
This is a psyop to make you gay
βMuscle mommyβ fetish is literally homosexuality
First it was the vax
Then they got TikTok brain kids to goon over these βwomenβ
If you have ever found yourself attracted to this you desperately need to raise your test levels.
Cannibalism as a metaphor for love only works for yaoi and yuri because heterosexuality is *already* about consumption so it's not narratively interesting, it's just patriarchal violence.
Its always "$15/hr is too much for burger flippers" and never "13.4 million/hr is too much for Jeff Bezos, who literally does nothing. If you really believe the value of labor is related to how hard it is, then no one can "earn" that much. Its stolen. From workers. Give it back.
Blaming trans women, instead of tranphobia, for trans men's lack of representation, is frankly disgusting. Stating that all trans women are "male socialized" to take up space is disgusting misogynistic behavior. We wouldn't take that from cis men, why should we from trans men?
Extremely sad to a see a transmasc friend of mine get into a relationship with a younger cis man and then fully lean into femininity. They do not seem or sound very comfortable at all and it kills me.
"trans women were girls" is an incredibly benign take that also happens to best fit the data we have, and yet it makes the absolute worst kind of people grumble.
firing shots in the air to keep my following clear: trans women arent male socialised, female/male socialisation isnt real in the first place, trans women experience (trans)misogyny prior to self actualising and coming out
The afab vs amab typing thing is a perfect example of how liberal language is harmful. If it was just "men tend to type this way, women tend to type this way" it would make a lot more sense. But you had to bring everyone's genitals into it because that's Woke and Progressive.
This broke my heart a little. Nearly sixty years apart and I still relate to so much of this. The fear at work, the yearning to be like other women, the overwhelming and exhausted sadness. I hope she's well.
I think a lot of people struggle with the fact that some trans women have interests/behaviors that are "traditionally male" and link those behaviors to vague "amab socialization" when there is a much easier explanation: women can like games; women can have internalized misogyny.
AOC skipping the inauguration to enable and assist a union strike while yall talk shit on twitter really puts things into perspective.
Organizing > Podcasting
"I'm suspicious of cis lesbians who defend trans women too much" oh really? why? why is that? is there something about trans women that makes you think they're undeserving of such community with other women? hmm?
Bernie Sanders killed it on the view.
And he's crushing it on MSNBC.
As much as these networks try to trash him, his message is so clear, honest, and for us.

A lot of AMAB nonbinary people navigate their particular dysphoria through intense working out. This is fairly common knowledge you'd be aware of if you weren't enbyphobic. Stuff like this alienates people from the community.
"Jokes about humanizing trans people" and it's a minute and a half of a guy talking about how he likes fucking trans women and how strange the language she uses for her body is.
People being like βI KNOW hunter and Rosalia were scissoring teeheeβ and the comments going βum hunters trans they canβt scissorβ¦β guysβ¦. Itβs very possible to scissor with transwomen youβre just not using your whole brains.
At the heart of misgendering isn't a desire for truth, it's just a desire to hurt the other person by denying them the ability to self identify. If you're a feminine boy, they'll call you a girl because it's supposed to hurt you. Vice versa for (trans) women.
The implication that transmascs/trans men can be lesbians but trans women cannot is horrifically transphobic to both groups. You're really reducing trans men to their (perceived) vaginas? How does this make you better than most cishet men?
Anyone else notice that the "TE" ate up the "RF" in terf? Almost none of them are actual radical feminists. I've been using "gender conservative" instead.
@cmclymer
How are you always on the wrong side of this shit lol. I cannot understand a person in my generation actually looking up at Nancy Pelosi, watching her vote for Trump's military budget, bail out banks, and refuse rent cancellation... and think she's anything but an obstacle.
"trans is mental, not physical" when I was eleven years old, I fought my mother until both of us were screaming and bloody because she wanted to cut my long hair.
The trans scamming athlete Lia Thomas is now engaged to a woman. Another attention seeking straight relationship with fluorescent hair dye pretending to be *different* π₯΄β¬οΈ
Estrogen is the only reason that I can comfortably dress more masculine/butch. Masculine expression/clothing used to be a prison, and now I'm usually clocked as a dyke before anything, no matter how I dress, but esp. if I dress masc. It's so liberating.
@Public_Citizen
Every single one of the 139 Democrats that voted "Nay" need to be primaried and replaced with politicians who believe our priorities are people, not bombs
Just to be clear I said AMAB because when TERFs hate on all men, they INCLUDE trans women in that. Blanket categorization of gender and morality will always lead to the most vulnerable people taking the most heat
