Radfems and terfs will get so incredibly weird when you talk about trans people. I have had a radfem get very angry about me saying I support trans women and start talking to me about trans women in prison raping other prisoners, like that’s an insane leap. We weren’t even talking about prisons at all. And first of all, that’s a bad thing to happen, everyone can agree. Rape is horrific under any possible circumstance. And I haven’t done any research on that exact topic, I am not an expert, I don’t know of any specific examples but that doesn’t actually matter. Gender isn’t a factor in the level of ‘badness’ of assault, it’s equally bad. This hypothetical rapist trans woman or even real rapist trans women has literally nothing to do with the validity of all trans women. Rapists in prison shouldn’t be allowed to be in situations where they can rape anyone. The prison system is flawed! I don’t have a solution! I am a random person with opinions! My opinion is very simple, rape is evil, rapists should be kept away from victims. And that opinion has nothing at all to do with my opinion that trans women are women.
This is not a well formulated thoughtfully crafted post, this is an annoyed rambling mess.
Some women are conditioned to be fragile and weak, and to believe that it's a sin to outperform a man. Her feminism would involve allowing women to be strong.
Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.
Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.
Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution to oppression. Each individual person's experience is different. Whatever trauma is caused by their oppression, the activism should focus on undoing it.
Unfollow this account if you're transautistic, transadhd, any of that bullshit. (Not talking about people who're trans and autistic, talking about transid people)
"But it's how I-" No.
"You can't control how I-" No.
You are neurotypical, calling yourself an identity that is for neurodivergent people. That's fine, except when neurodivergent people tell you to stop. Then you should stop. You have no argument for not stopping.
"But self-diagnosis-" No.
There's a difference between self-diagnosing and being transautistic.
Transautistic is saying "I'm not autistic, but I feel like I should have autism, and now I'm one of you!" And then I will respond by calling you ableist and punching you in the face.
Self-diagnosing is saying "Hey. I'm not diagnosed, but if I went to a good doctor, I think they would diagnose me with autism." And then I go "Oh, what are your symptoms? I have autism, I can help."
If you think you have autism, just self diagnose.
If you want to have autism, fuck off.
A lot of terfism and branches or extreme/radical feminism really has just reinvented bioessentialism.
There's a lot of Men inherently bad and evil gender!! Women victims! Mentality going on lately and I don't like it.
begging young people to stop getting all their opinions from pinterest and tiktok
NO, radical feminism doesn’t suddenly become a-okay as long as it’s trans inclusive
NO, you being traumatized by men doesn’t give you an excuse to threaten random people you perceive as men
NO, someone’s identity not making sense to you isn’t a personal attack against you or the queer community as a whole
NO, you can’t call intersex people disordered or deformed
NO, intersex people DO want to be included in the queer community, stop speaking on our behalf
NO, using the f slur AS A SLUR isn’t reclaiming it, regardless of whether it applies to you or not
NO, having kinks isn’t a gateway to becoming a horrible abuser
NO, it’s not okay to threaten random people for having contradictory labels
NO, sex work is not inherently predatory and always abuse
NO, men CAN AND DO have periods and get pregnant (YES, including those icky cis men. intersex cis men exist)
GET OFF PINTEREST AND TALK TO PEOPLE
Miss Piggy's response to misogyny and fatphobia is physical violence and I think we should all take something from that
"the best way to screw jkr over is by making her characters queer!" actually. The best way to screw jkr over is to stop engaging with the property she still profits off of and read a different fucking book
Mad about politics again
Actually feminists want you to shut the fuck up about how much you hate men and males. Yeah we voted. We decided it's actually super uncool to hate half of humanity due to something beyond their control.
Fuck it -- God bless the rural queers. God bless every dyke, faggot and tranny who lives in a town with less than 10k. God bless every queer living in red towns in red counties, in blue states or red states alike. God bless every queer who's also a redneck, who knows how to hunt and fish. God bless every queer living in a town where every other house is condemned. Where half the storefronts are empty.
God bless rural queers.
Feel free to ignore. This is my “old man yells at cloud” blog, so, let’s see where this shit goes.Qualifications aka basic biographical info: I’m a white queer adult in America and nothing else is any of your business
