sorry for casterly rocking

This CANNOT be left in the tags you came with RECEIPTS

loss is a gift, girl

feminism has backslid so hard in recent years people don't even know what free the nipple means anymore

And the fact that not wearing a bra is so discouraged and stigmatized that people think the movement was about being able to go braless under your shirt in public rather than about being able to not wear a shirt at all says a lot about how far we've backslid in the past decade

Sister, keep that to yourself or make your own goddamn post, you are ignoring that woman’s central concern and belittling her, you don’t even think you’re doing it. Formerly childfree women who ended up having children and loving it are like detransitioners in the sense that there is nothing inherently wrong with changing your mind about having children or realizing you were mistaken about your gender identity but immediately weaponizing your indecision to tell people that the barriers to healthcare and the violations of their bodily autonomy and the way society ignores that person’s wishes is actually okay because you were wrong. Some people do know themselves.

Hey, I’m a trans man making this post. I have faced some of this bullshit but I’m well aware that cisgender women are the primary targets of this because motherhood is so forcibly intertwined with female identity in misogynistic stereotypes to the point that women who cannot get pregnant or have no desire to get pregnant and have children are seen as defective and less woman and childfree women are often demonized. As a trans man, it is often weaponized against us too, “Do not transition because what if you regret it and your husband leaves you because you cannot get pregnant and then you can’t breastfeed because you mutilated your breast which are obviously the most important part of you.” but that is because these people are transphobic and do not view us as men. We suffer under this too but post transition trans men are often ridiculed for having children instead of not having children, transphobes view it as some sort of gotcha because the ability to reproduce is so (arbitrarily) forcibly associated with womanhood. I try to alternate between gender neutral language and language that speaks about women in discussions about reproductive freedom because so much of the extreme hatred in these discussions is plainly caused by a hatred of women in particular and a belief that a woman’s worth is tied into her reproductive ability and I do believe that a cis woman’s relationship to reproduction is very different than a trans man’s relationship to reproduction, not that we are not victims of oppression but that the societal messaging is aimed directly and primarily at all that society deems to be women.

we want to entertain one billion people a day and to achieve that goal we’re going to fire every single game developer we’ve ever hired 😍😍😍

Just remembered I had this screenshot on my phone somewhere and had to post it here because it really speaks to me

a fork in the road like this would be a great place to examine your bioessentialist transphobia, but instead of doing that you can just ascend to a new enlightened plane and reach queer level 100 by deciding "welllll trans men can be lesbians"

like, no, it's actually not level 100 gender to expect trans women to top you, you just see her as a man and instead of examining your transphobia you're pretending you exist on the next plane of queer thought high above us bottom feeders who foolishly think having a penis might not necessarily mean she wants to perform a traditionally masculine role for you in the bedroom

certainly a lot of trans women genuinely enjoy topping, but I think it's a lot fewer than many people imagine. we just aren't being given the space to genuinely explore what we want, often thanks to the presence of enlightened level 100 queers who see us as naive fools for thinking we might not want to top. how simple we are for not considering that Women Can Top Too! it's actually more radical for women to top! 😁

this should be illegal i’m not jokinng

Taking it side by side together (side by side together)
