EDGE OF SEVENTEEN TAG- made by @alwaysimming & @our-dazed-sims

so here is my two babies in high school!! they were such frickin dweebs, and i couldn’t help myself when the prom option was presented to me. imagine them at prom? frickin wild. some pics of just them are below the cut, but im so glad i was tagged in this by @sycsh !! 

i’ll tag anyone who really wants to do it, honestly its so much fun!

Frankly that’s not your call to make. You have no control over what another person experiences in their OWN gender journey. That is truly transmed “if you don’t deeply hate yourself you’re not really trans” shit.

My regular dash:

> “jumping on trans women” when we’re talking about our own experiences and erasure, calling out harmful rhetoric, regardless of who it comes from.

> calling trans men White Women. Just straight up misgendering, okay.

> “white woman tears” - apparently we’re hysterical

> “you don’t deserve to be masc or a man” okay so someone’s gender identity is subject to your shitty opinion? I thought the whole point of being trans was self determination.

> “comparing yourself to trans women” we have no similarities apparently. Nothing in common. Nope, not a damn thing.

> “act like a man and stand up for the women around you” I don’t think women are damsels that need protection, and it’s not my duty to white knight for them at my own expense, especially when they refuse to treat me like a person worthy of basic human decency. I happily stand up for folks in my community that will likewise stand up for me, but it has nothing to do with gender. It’s because we’re equals in community and solidarity.

> “grow up, you’re acting like children” you know transmasc people have a problem with infantilization, right? Right??

I completely agree it’s unwarranted for people to dogpile or go looking for fights, but I don’t think a bunch of people saying, “hey that’s not cool” is harassment. Not saying some people don’t have an explicitly transmisogynistic agenda, but stop generalizing that we’re just emotional weak women I mean shitty childish men whose only gender euphoria comes from being misogynistic. Maybe we’re just trans and want to be respected for the identities we can’t change.

1) We are treated worse than trans women

2) All, a majority of, or even most of our problems are caused by trans women

It has only ever meant that we have a different, intersectional struggle influenced by both our transness and our masculinity. Not that men are the real victims, or that women actually have it better, but that there are ways in which our transmasculine bodies and identities are politicized in ways affected by anti-masculine sentiments. About men being gross, and violent, and uncontrollable monsters.

Our goal of self determination and liberation is in absolutely no way analagous to women-hating gamergate style MRAs. Cut the oppositional shit out and stop mapping cis gender dynamics onto trans people 1:1

When you say “Transandrobro cunts are just TMRAS. Don’t listen to them about their own experiences, listen to me, who knows that women (general) are the most victimized people on earth,” you sound like literal TERFS who insist, “Tranny fags are just TRAS. Don’t listen to them about their own experiences, listen to me, who knows that women (cis) are the most victimized people on earth.”
