I saw a lesbian on a terf list for reblogging period art
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for refusing to have a sexual relationship with a trans woman she knew because she was uncomfortable interacting with a penis
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for being uncomfortable with penis photos on her dash
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for disagreeing with a trans woman about something that wasn’t even trans related
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for saying the cotton ceiling was a rapey concept
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for talking about sex based oppressions (abortion rights etc)
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for posting a picture of herself with the caption “I love vaginas”
I saw a lesbian on a terf list for saying that she was having pms, and that guys were lucky to never experience it
Like, just admit you hate lesbians okay. You use to only witch hunt radical feminists (lesbian or otherwise), but now any lesbian who says one tiny thing you disagree with is instantly a terf. You’re not protecting people with your fake af terf lists. You’re attacking your libfem allies, and then you wonder why people are afraid of you and why they turn to radical feminism for support.
scored shoutout from sexy gf!!!!
i want to talk about a phenomenon in the trans community that reminds me of political lesbianism—a phenomenon that my gf refers to as “political transgenderism.”
during the second wave of feminism a lot of hetero/bisexual women stripped their sexualities and put on the label “lesbian” as a means to progress feminism. they believed that to be a feminist meant they had to exclude men from their attraction, despite the fact that sexuality is an innate, uncontrollable trait!
similarly, i see this sentiment crop up in trans communities. every single person who touts “you don’t need dysphoria to be trans” is a proponent of political transgenderism. they believe that in order to destroy the evil cisgenders, MORE people need to identify as trans or nonbinary! they believe that identifying as trans/NB is a valid political strategy.
my issue with both political lesbianism and political transgenderism is that there is no need to change your identity in order to fight whatever fight you believe in. i don’t need to claim to be Black in order to be anti racism or claim to be an amputee to be anti ableism. the only type of person who needs to center themselves and their identity in their political beliefs is a selfish and egotistical one.
political lesbians and political transgender people co-opt the struggles and vulnerabilities of marginalized groups. they use stereotypes and generalizations as an attempt to “pass” as “valid.” when really, the only thing that makes one a lesbian is exclusive female same-sex attraction, and the only thing that makes someone trans is dysphoria.
hi i made a tumblr bc my terf gf @dykeotomy demanded i speak my mind freely here bc i can’t do it at my overpriced liberal bs university
Society isn't "becoming more sex positive" it's becoming more porn obsessed.
the really ironic thing about terfs is like 70% of them are just transmisogynistic cishet men who pretend to be women online just to get a platform in transmisogynistic feminism. pretty fucked up
Chappell Roan is a blazing fakebian.
an abused wife of the 1700s who’s birthed 16 children and has not been allowed to leave the house for the last 7 years will write in her diary “i am cursed to be a woman. i wish i were a man, so i could be free, and i wouldn’t always be pregnant, aching, and i could explore, see the world, and learn. why did god forsake me with this body?” and you’ll search her name on tumblr and get “he was such a transmasc legend!! trans people have always existed! proof is right here! he suffered because he wanted to transition so bad 😔 this is why gender transition must be a human right, and deadnaming should be illegal. stupid TERFs, complaining about sex-based oppression. that doesn’t even exist.”
