@transandrophobiaexpose is a bait blog. it is sharing posts that have nothing to do with discrimination about trans men and is trying to interpret them as such. it is also offering strictly bad faith interpretations about the posts it screenshots.
please stop engaging and reacting to it. its goal is to paint the concept of transandrophobia and the people who fight for it as bigoted and incorrect.

Three of my cis friends family members (not just one family member per friend, sometimes multiple members of their family) have clocked me as Not Cishet, and they will say to my friends, “is that a girl or a faggot, that’s a girl pretending to be a boy, a tranny, etc” and then I go on Tumblr.com and I am told that I actually have both male privilege and passing privilege, therefore I am an evil oppressor that doesn’t actually have any problems
I’m tired of this shit
To be a trans woman is to be perceived by polite society as lying on a spectrum from “creepy male pervert” to “feminine object of sexual desire which can be freely beaten, raped, and murdered with no societal consequences.”
The best part is that not only can I not choose where I lie on this spectrum, but anyone who isn’t me can freely move me around on it however they like.
would love to live in the world where trans men get both male privilege and afab privilege (whatever that means). unfortunately i live in the real world where male privilege is inherently cis and perisex and afab privilege is straight up bullshit
I cannot stress enough how trans men acknowledging their oppression before being openly trans is not self misgendering. Complain all you want about our "AGAB" or whatever but the undeniable fact is we've been suffering due to gender before we even transitioned.

trans-feminism not transfem-inism
fascinated by the terf buzzword "male violence" because I've yet to see a real explanation of what unique property is shared between cisgender men and transgender women that lends some kind of special power to any violence committed by them
a lot of the times it's used seem to come from the oversimplification "men oppress women, ergo 'males' oppress 'females,' and I think trans women are male, ergo there is no material, systemic, or social difference between the classes of cisgender men and transgender women, so we can simply reason about transgender women as if they are part of the same category"
alternatively it's a complete refusal to understand or acknowledge the systems that permit and encourage men to commit violence, attempting to explain men's behavior entirely through their bodies (while simultaneously flattening and denying any bodily differences between cisgender men and transgender women, regardless of medical transition, for the purpose of grouping trans women together with men)
Before coming out I used to work at a mental health crisis line. There were so many problems with this place, that I will probably talk about some other time, but generally stemming from issues relating to social class and demographics more broadly.
90% of the volunteers were wealthy retired neurotypical cishet white women. That meant that for basically every call these people received there was a pre-existing power dynamic where the caller was well below the call-handler, and the call was consequently handled totally paternalistically, never with any sense that the volunteer might actually have something to learn from the caller. The similarity to the typical patient-GP/PCP dynamic was really striking.
Most of the callers were prisoners, homeless, or people who had recently stopped taking anti-psychotic meds. I think many of the volunteers enjoyed the feeling of the power dynamic that was obvious in these calls. If you spend most of your social time with people of the same high social class as you, I guess you might find it refreshing to encounter people who remind you that you've actually done well out of life, only from a safe distance and through a phone ofc.
We also got a lot of trans callers. Hearing how the volunteers talked to these callers was a really radicalising experience. "Why do you think you're a woman?" "Why do you think you enjoy wearing women's clothing?" "Is there a sexual component to it? Maybe something that happened in your childhood?" "What do the other girls at school think about you calling yourself a boy?", plus the obvious constant misgendering and pronoun "mix-ups", saying, "Oh sorry, miss, your voice sounds like a man's so it's confusing."
People would say this stuff during training too, and the people training us would say it was correct. It's not like they were letting their bigotry cause them to deviate from policy, bigotry was the policy. I remember there was one senior volunteer who was a retired cis lesbian police officer, and I asked her about handling trans callers and she just repeated back all the same bigoted nonsense everyone else thought (at the time I put that down to her being a cop, not being aware back then that being a cis lesbian is no guarantee at all of an absence of transphobic views.)
It didn't take long for me to start getting reprimanded for having too much empathy for the callers. I was an unusual volunteer in that I had actually been in the same position as a lot of the callers. I was trans (albeit not out yet), I was frequently suicidal, I had been on anti-depressants (incredibly I was the only volunteer out of around 150 with that experience), I had experienced CSA and domestic abuse, I had lived through times when I had a zero bank balance, I had eaten food out of a bin because I had no money, I had been heavily addicted to alcohol and nicotine.
It meant I normally had some commonality with all the callers that I could use to make sure I was talking to them in the way I would've wanted to be talked to, i.e. as an equal. I would actually let the caller direct the conversation rather than directing it myself (which was the policy), I would show genuine interest in their story, I wouldn't tell them to hurry up because there were other callers with "real problems". After a while, I couldn't handle it and I just left, not because of the stress of dealing with the callers, but the stress of dealing with the other volunteers.
And now many years later I often see queer groups near me directing people to this crisis hotline in case of emergency, and I always have to make a fuss to get them to remove it as a categorically non-safe institution. But it's so well-known and respected where I live (by people who have never used it, but they are typically the ones in positions of power ofc) that it can be really hard to get people to believe it is actually that bad.
a vicious cycle
Do they not wonder why people are fucking exhausted of all of this
They fucking WISH people were after them like this. They WISH they had chasers!!
Sirs, nobody wants your weird shit. Nobody wants to hook themselves to that wagon. We've seen your dumpster fire and we are not interested.
Just more emotional labour women are expected to perform
youre blatantly wrong. trans women are fetishized, like, extremely. there are hundreds of articles and studies about it. here are some to start with, since you're clearly not very knowledgeable on the topic:

do your research next time :^)
You know that two things can be true right
Trans women can be fetishised and cis women can be expected to perform emotional labour right?
is the cis person in the comic even a woman? as far as i can see, they're not given any gender lmao.

Notice how the ones with that fetish tend to be porn sick men, not women who are worried they aren’t being politically correct enough
there are tons of trans chasing women who i've personally encountered, but that's anecdotal. here's some statistics from the largest porn site on what transgender porn women consume.
it isn't strictly men who search up transgender pornography. according to the same set of statistics, men were only 8% more likely to search up trans pornography than women. compared to other groups they compared and contrasted (like 65+ yr olds being 24% more likely than those 25-34 yrs old to search up trans porn), 8% is small.
Yeah also notice how it’s predominantly trans men they’re interested in. Men are more likely to fetishise trans women. You know that. Also I’d be not at all surprised if whether someone’s a male or female visitor is solely based on self ID. Not an awfully reliable system lbh. We also would need to factor in how many women watch porn vs how many men watch it (spoiler alert: men watch it more)
it is mostly trans men, but there's a significant amount of trans women in the videos they watch too. i dont understand how you can think the comic is "exhausting." what about it do you think is inaccurate or offensive?

"shinigami eyes is an extension for trans people-"
nope, sorry, it's for transfems specifically.
"-to check accounts for transphobia-"
you mean transmisogyny.
"but trans women started using it to-"
it was ours to begin with.
"-mark innocent people red."
mark transmisogynists red. you don't think they're transmisogynists because you don't take transfems seriously.
can you find someone marked red, look me in the eyes, and honestly tell me they haven't done any of the following:
-said men are oppressed/misandry is an issue
-defended afab-only spaces
-opposed transfeminists
-claimed transfeminist terminology is an attack on other marginalized groups
-spread rumors about a transfem being a predator without evidence
-participated in lolcowing a transfem
-tried to reclaim femboy culture as a non-transfem
-defended male socialization theory
-implied transfems are generally dangerous
-accused a transfem of being an evil pervert while excusing non-transfems engaging in similar kinks
-claimed transmascs have no privilege or power over transfems
-claimed most transfeminists are white/bourgeoisie
-called trans women bitches, cunts, or racial slurs
because any of that is a valid reason for a transfem to not trust you. i cannot stress that enough. any single one of those is a good enough reason for a random transfem to signal to others "be cautious." and if you can't understand why transfems are wary around people like this, you need to make an effort to learn.
"its for transfems specifically" blatant lie but ok
"its to check for transmisogyny not transphobia" website literally says otherwise. word for word it says: "...highlights transphobic and trans-friendly social network pages..."
but keep lying it makes you look super reliable and trustworthy 👍
