Happy Pride to Nyon especially ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜 Men aren't oppressed for being men though
Oh my god
Hi, i'd love to chat with you about this. I'm not saying men are oppressed for being men, i'm saying the bias against trans men specifically is bad. The hyperinvisibility harms trans men in a way that doesn't harm trans women, and in the same way that hypervisibility harms trans women in ways that don't harm trans men.
Trans men are at a higher risk of sexual assault than both their transfemme and cis counterparts
Often times, we are remembered only as women or lesbians, despite us very vocally being trans men
And i'm not saying corrective assault is any less bad for trans women or cis people, but with those whi have the capability to carry children, we can be forced to carry them- especially since roe v wade was overturned. This can force us off of our HRT.
Also, I know E becoming a controlled substance is bullshit, but T has been a controlled substance for over 30 years. We can get arrested for trying to DIY HRT.
Trans men are forced into marriages as wives, trans men are seen as broken girls, and then trans men are erased from history in favor of being seen as sapphic.
Any privilege a trans man has hinges on being percieved as a cis man. Having to hide part of who you are to be treated well is not a privilege. It's a form of oppression- look at the don't ask don't tell policy of the military.
I'm not a cis man, so i don't have cis male privilege. I am a trans man, and you cannot take those two apart.
