‘Trans Men Have Male Privilege’ =/= ‘Trans Men have the same exact privileges as Cis Men and are treated as such’
“But society doesn’t recognize them as-”
that’s lacking cis privilege

Once you get to a certain level of advanced maths, you basically become a wizard.
this is what a page of my wizards spellbook looks like
What is your opinion on Misandry? I have been told frequently that it doesn't exist, but I think it is the foundation on which a lot of TERFs hate us. The concept of a rape organ, or that trans women are men invading women's spaces seem rooted in this idea that men are evil. I value your take
the logic of the patriarchy is that men are strong and capable, while women are weak and helpless damsels, justifying men's control over them. but because women are cast as ineffectual, a class of women the patriarchy wants to violently suppress must be rhetorically masculinized, or else they could pose no convincing violent threat worthy of said violent suppression
if terfs thought men were evil, they wouldn't collaborate so happily with the very structures of patriarchy that oppress them just so they could stick it to a marginalized group. the masculinizing rhetoric doesn't serve on its own to paint us as evil--only strong enough to be capable of enacting evil. it's the transfemininity that actually provides the "evil" part of the equation
to build on this further, terfs never seem to take any issue with men having close proximity with and/or power over cis women
I don't see terfs protesting male doctors treating cis women, I don't see terfs protesting the catholic church, which frequently gives men close access to and power over cisgender women, and I don't see terfs protesting the unit of the family itself, in which fathers have extremely high levels of access to and power over their children, including cisgender girls
no, terfs have no issue with men having close proximity to and power over women. they have an issue with trans women
surely any day now terfs will start protesting male gynecologists
if terf rhetoric were ever actually meaningfully "misandrist" there would be a massive male counter-movement working against it. but there isn't, because terf rhetoric doesn't bind men, it empowers them
it serves the interests of the patriarchy very comfortably, reifying the myths of male superiority and the fragility of women while pinning all of women's oppression not on men, but on an extraordinarily marginalized class of women. it's a great way to obscure the reality of the patriarchy while upholding the logic that it's built on
reifying the fragility of women makes the patriarchy appear natural. it tees the patriarchy up to go:
"of course women aren't holding positions of actual power. it's not because men oppress women, it's because women are too weak to do the important work. therefore, women need men to do all the heavy lifting for them, so the best thing they can do for themselves is become appealing and valuable to men. systemic oppression? what are you talking about? it's just biology"
I literally plainly asked a terf once that if she doesn't want trans women in women's prisons, why is she okay with male guards in said prisons. She said she doesn't care because they 'belong' there.
I think it’s nuts that people will call trans women terfs and paint them as nasty aggressors towards the eternally victimized trans men when the entire TERF worldview is literally thinking trans women are nasty aggressors and trans men are victims. Do they like really not see the irony there
🎯
at this point a lot of you would cheer if terfs started pushing to relabel bathrooms as "afab" and "amab"
the arguments for "afab only" spaces are identical in both form and function to terf bathroom arguments, the language used is just "progressive"
I'm not being hyperbolic either. terfs want to define everyone by their agabs and categorize and segregate based on them. terfs say "females" and you say "afabs" but you want the same things, you just name them differently. your only disagreements with terfs are semantic

we're abolishing gender! in the future people will just be referred to as AMAB or AFAB, no need for gender at all! 😀
this is a progressive stance, you see, because AMAB and AFAB are different words from "man" and "woman." we're leaving such outdated concepts behind!
no no no it's not "misgendering you." it doesn't refer to your gender, it refers to the sex you were assigned. that way we don't need gender anymore! you can just throw that old thing away
now there's only two categories: AMABS and AFABS! so much simpler! what? no I didn't say there's only two genders. these aren't genders they're categories. this is progress we're making progress
you want to change your assignment? because of what, your gender? no you don't need one of those, I said to get rid of it
a lot of my disillusionment with the trans "community" comes down to the fact that too many of you take "gender is different from sex" and go "ah ok, so instead of saying women are fragile and men are strong, I should say afabs are fragile and amabs are strong. to be Inclusive"
then you just treat gender like a surface level aesthetic draped over what someone "actually" is. really is indistinguishable from terf rhetoric
you all need to unpack your bioessentialism, but we also need a better theory of gender than "it's just dressup." I will pick my words carefully here, but the word "gender" itself refers to so many different phenomena that have been lumped together, and we need to un-lump them
in a feminist context, "gender" has historically referred to externally imposed categorization and the internalization and performance of said categories. in a paper I wrote on this subject, I called this sense of the word "extrinsic gender"
"intrinsic gender," on the other hand, is what I used to refer to the sense of the word "gender" that a lot of trans people are talking about when they discuss social gender dysphoria and euphoria. it's the internal sense of category that's resistant to external impositions
but then we also use the word "gender" to refer to subconscious sex, which is the term Julia Serano coins in Whipping Girl to name the phenomenon we're talking about when we talk about bodily dysphoria. it is the "gender" being "affirmed" by gender affirming healthcare like HRT and bottom surgery
so, "gender" is: a social classing system, a performance, and at least two internal phenomena as well. and I really don't know if it's doing us a service to conflate all of these things!
a lot of people lately seem to be going heavy on the "performance" use of the word, ignoring (intentionally or otherwise) social classing, intrinsic gender, and subconscious sex. this seems to have led to a lot of "progressive" people treating trans women like men "amabs" who wear womanhood as a costume, and nobody understands why that's wrong because they also think gender is just a performance
see also "why can't you just be a femboy/feminine man/etc"
furthermore, some trans people experience social dysphoria but not bodily dysphoria, and vice versa. but bodily dysphoria in particular has gained some stigma in the last few years
because we use the word "gender" to discuss both "intrinsic gender" as I termed it above, and subconscious sex, there's been a certain strain of argument from some trans people that says that medical transition reaffirms societal gender norms about bodies, and that bodily dysphoria must only result from externally imposed norms about what kind of body corresponds to what gender, and thus it would just go away if the gendered associations were unlearned
I'm strongly of the opinion, though, that our bodies are not like clothes! gender dysphoria related to clothing would generally have to do with one's intrinsic gender clashing with the gendered norms of their culture surrounding clothes, but I believe "gender" dysphoria related to the body itself is really, in large part, subconscious sex dysphoria, and this component cannot be alleviated by changing norms or associations. I strongly believe I would still seek HRT and bottom surgery if I lived my whole life in a cultureless vacuum
you cannot sidestep my dysphoria by regendering parts of my body I'm trying to change, and frankly it causes me a lot of strife that fellow trans people who flirt with me think they can talk about my body however they like as long as they gender it correctly. the word "girlcock" is not a magic dysphoria repellent, because the dysphoria doesn't just come from the gendering
people will describe their incredibly nebulous sexuality to you that they’ve never been able to define and the whole time you’re thinking that sounds like bisexuality brother
I think the "pre" and "post" parts in "preposterous" should cancel each other out but everyone else seems to find my idea completely erous

"woke" cis women like to think of transgender women as emancipated women free from the social rules imposed on women because they view those social rules as being learned during childhood or as a result of having been assigned female as birth rather than a result of ongoing patriarchal pressures women face in all aspects of their lives, for their whole lives. And its not really out of any wish to see an emancipated woman so much as it is a result of ingrained cissexism making them want to see transgender women as in some way inherently different to them while also knowing that they should not feel badly towards transgender women.
they used to make smackable technology. you used to be able to hit your tv when it didn't work good.
It just shifted to spanking your puppy’s ass, to make them take that thick knot. Like the good little play thing they are.
i don't really think it's like that at all
What you must understand is:
1. Men are systematically privileged over women.
2. Men love to take advantage of that privilege while simultaneously denying that it exists.
3. This dynamic does not change when the men and women in question are trans.
It runs directly counter to a cis worldview to say that trans women are women and trans men are men.
reminder that diy hrt is not only objectively safe, but in a deeply transphobic world, is imperative to the safety and longevity of trans people.
Second time I've heard about diy being safer, so, in what way (s) is non-diy dangerous?
a few things:
pedantic, but the claim wasnt that diy is safe, wasnt that it is "safer", but in many ways it is.
doctors are often (read: almost always) uneducated on transgender health. from Continuing Gaps in Transgender Medicine Education Among Health Care Providers "few of [the endocrinologists] (11%) rated themselves as very compotent in transgender care. Consistent with their self report, only 5% correctly answered knowledge questions. Further, only 36% reported training in transgender care during endocrinology fellowship."
because of this, trans women are often prescribed doses of estrogen so low as to have very little feminizing effect. for example, the common dosing of 2mg daily estradiol tablets with 50mg daily spironolactone is generally not enough estrogen to dominate a woman's endocrine system, but is enough to strongly weaken her testosterone, which is likely to cause harm (your body needs a dominant hormone, it doesn't care if it's estrogen or testosterone, but not having either is directly dangerous). these doses also fail to meaningfully decrease risk of depression and its symptoms (self harm, suicide, etc).
in a deeply transphobic world, where trans rights are constantly under massive threat, anything which can give care to trans women is imperative to their safety.
