Idk how to say it but like

And even if I try to say “well you don’t actually know if I was assigned female” I’ve had people tell me “only AFAB people try and and reject their AGAB” or some stuff like that. Have you maybe considered that I don’t publicly share my AGAB because I’ve been sexually harassed or because I don’t want people to see me different.

Tma/tme needs an early retirement because every last one of us is effected by transmisogyny.

Am I a trans woman? No.

Am I transfemme? No.

Did I spend all of highschool surrounded by sexual comments, rape threats, groping, unsolicited dick pics, and other such forms of harassment? Yes.

This all happened because I was transneutral and as a result, presented more feminine than the dudes at the school. They saw I was still viewed as a man and saw me as an acceptable target compared to cis women. They used me as an outlet for their misogyny because I was trans.

Trans men undeniably face much worse threats to their safety everyday, and you’re going to tell me constant rapes and murders that happen because they are TRANS and are viewed by most people as WOMEN *isn’t* transmisogyny?

Trans women face transmisogyny because they aren’t cis men, trans men face transmisogyny because they aren’t cis men, intersex and nonbinary people face transmisogyny because we aren’t cis men.

By definition you can't accidentally queerbait. Queerbaiting is specifically using a same sex pair from the show to market the show to queer audiences with no intention of ever following through on a romantic relationship.

There is officially licensed Destiel merch signed off on by Kripke. Teen Wolf had a commercial with the actors for Derek and Stiles draped over each other talking about being "on a ship." Both shows actively used scenes between them as marketing while actively mocking fans for wanting them together. Sherlock has multiple characters refer to Johnlock as a couple, including characters we're supposed to believe are never wrong about human behavior and pushed those scenes in marketing. Then they acted insulted when fans saw them as a couple.

That's queerbaiting.

Done on accident it would just be queer subtext. Done because they had no other choice due to censorship is queer coding.

The specific meaning of the word is really starting to get lost and it's a pretty important one to keep accurate. It describes a very specific phenomenon that was done repeatedly and maliciously for decades and is meant to examine that specifically.
