I'm sorry but when did we move away from "Access to hrt and surgery is a privilege" because we should probably move back to that one

"cissexual privilege" What about the privilege to go to a doctor and get yourself some hormones in the first place. I can't even do that rn

Ok so it’s totally cool that diy T is a felony and doctors have to jump through hoops to prescribe it and we’re constantly warned out our fertility and how it’s going to destroy our bodies but as soon as a random citizen petition gets sent about E suddenly the whole trans community is freaking out. Really love that for us. Makes me feel really valued

does tumblr transfeminist logic allow room for the idea that being able to get estrogen without a prescription without going to jail in the us means you're privileged

“Where are the trans men in history?” See. When you're born a gender that was forcefully married off, who had to live most of their life indoors, when you had to raise children, and had a lobotomy if your family thought you were a tad too odd, it's kinda hard to come out as a trans man now ain't it.

Something that really bothers me in the discourse around trans men being privledged over trans women is that I've seen so many trans men argue that the privledge we hold isnt really privledge because its conditional, and that "privledge cannot be conditional." Which is just wrong. Privledge is very much conditional. I feel like so mamy people's idea of what intersectionality is, is just standing up for other marginalized groups / showing your solidarity. When thats not it. Intersectionality is also awknowledging that people experiance different levels of oppression based off who they are, a trans woman saying shes experiances more oppression than trans men isnt saying trans man experiance NO oppression, its just that trans women experiance the same oppression they do Along with transmisogyny. And dont go saying things like, "well trans men only get that privledge if their pass 100% and are stealth!!" I see a lot of transguys say that and its just untrue. Im an androgynous transman in a red state, and I still benifit from being seen as a man in my everyday life, even if its not 100% of the time. My life has signifigantly improved from being seen as a man, even if its only 60-70% of the time. No trans woman is saying we never experianced misogyny, or that we dont experiance oppression at all. Trans feminists just try to say that we do benifit from the patriarchy even if not as much as cismen

I seriously dont get why people are so stubborn to not admit privledge can be conditonal. If you are in an economically bad place you should esp understand that, thats like a great example of conditional privledge, because if your situation changes than you may have less or more. Like ??

There's something I've always wondered when people make these argument. When do they think trans men and mascs gain cis male privilege? When in our transitions are we Effectively Cis Men? What about those of us who don't want top surgery or hrt or a hysterectomy or bottom surgery? What about trans men and mascs in the global south? Trans men and mascs who cannot transition for any reason? When do we, as men and mascs viewed by society as women and who are routinely treated as such, get male privilege?

I never said trans men recieve privledge for being trans men, trans men do recieve privledge when we are seen as cis men. That is kinda my whole point. The misogyny we face when passing as cisgender men lessens, and that is a privledge. Im also not talking about the entire world population in this post, im mostly pointing out that a lot of trans men do experiance privledge once they transition medically but will act like they dont at all. I also hate the arguement of "theres no times trans men are seen as authentic cis men," because that is also not true. Yes, systematialy we are discriminated against for being trans and thats inescapeable, but there are also social privledges we can hold over others in our everyday life, and if we are seen as cis men by the people around us we are given those privledges. Its also not saying any of those people are privledged at all lol. A masc named woman may get the interview but it wont mean much when they actually see her. You can also pass as a cis man in your day to day life without surgeries and genuinely a hysrectomy doesnt help passing at all so idk why u brought that up. All i was saying is that trans men dont have to pass 100% to have any kind of privledge, and I dont get why people argue that to be the case. You can pass even just sometimes and you will be given the social benifits cisgender men recieve in Their day to day lives, while trans women when transitioning recieve the opposite, and experiance more misogyny once they transition medically & socially

This post was obviously calling out passing trans men who act like we experiance no privledge, im not gonna entertain anymore whataboutism from yall. Of course not all trans men experiance the same privledge, but some trans men REFUSE to awknowledge that we have any because we still face discrimination. Ive literally been forced to quit a job due to being outed as a trans man btw, so don't act like I have no idea what our workplace lives are like. Again, I never said we NEVER face discrimination, but it IS possible to benifit from being seen as a cis man in the workplace, and other aspects of our lives. And again with the hysrectomy... You still have to go to the gyno if you have one? You still have to get pap smears (or well, youre supposed to) So i dont see how that would prevent trans men from being outed. Therr will always be aspects of our lives we can face discrimination for, but we still can be privledged in comparison to trans women :/

Wow i never said trans men become cis men istfg. We can recieve >>> SOME of the privledge cisgender men do by passing as cis. And i refused to awnser your ask cuz frankly i dont know what the transfem experiance is like enough to talk about what pirvledges they may or may not have before transitioning.

I said privledge is conditional, so it can be ripped away? Is that not like fucking obvious? That doesnt make the privledge u experiance before that... NOT exist. I can agree to miswording that there, I dont mean to say trans men experiances are the same as cis men, just that we can experiance some privledges by passing as cisgender :p

You haven't answered the question. What exact privileges do trans men and mascs getby passing that is not ripped away once they are outed?

Im not gonna awnser because my whole fucking post was abt how transmen have CONDITIONAL privledged that CAN be taken away. Baaaai ✌️

And What Fucking Privileges Are Those!!! Your arguments are incoherant, you answer nothing and you reblog from people who don't see trans men and mascs as Real Trans. Answer ANY of my fucking questions and stop dodging because you don't have an answer to any of it! It's just bullshit you've absorbed fron radfems.

bro can't answer the questions because he knows he's wrong and is too proud to admit it

fun reminder that tara was the main one who came up with a nickname to mock me for being a victim of SA. and then spread it to her friends. and all her friends kept calling me that nickname containing the word "rape" as a play on words for my username. to literally make fun of me for being a victim. and when confronted on this, she basically refused to confirm nor deny it but instead misgendered me in her response. :)

yes it is just easier if i pretend every benign inanimate object is a woman. get off my back
