#transmascphobia

Please DO be that 'obnoxious' guy who brings up non-western trans men whenever other westerners start talking about issues of transphobia and misogyny like we don't exist.

A lot of the time, the risks for us bringing it up ourselves is much greater than that of a fellow westerner. Or we may not even be invited to the table to be able to say anything. We genuinely do need others to speak for us.

They might call you 'obnoxious' or 'reaching' but in times like that please remember that we are not a rhetorical tool

Trans men in the global south are REAL PEOPLE. Bringing us up is never 'strawmanning' or 'missing the point' or any other stupid ass excuse because we are not an imaginary 'other'.

It is always a good idea to bring up global southern trans men. And DO NOT let them make you feel guilty about it

like are you fucking kidding me. jesus christ

it doesn't even matter whether or not you think transandrophobia is "real" at this point, this is just active transphobia. Period. it doesn't matter how you spin it. you can mark people like this as green as you want, that doesn't mean I'm ever going to feel safe.

no excuse is going to convince me that any of these people (or the shinigami eyes extension itself) are "trans-friendly." active intersexism/exorsexism/transphobia (yes, even aimed at those "shitty tme tboys!") is not "trans-friendly." this isn't up for debate. stop pretending like it is. you can't pick and choose which trans people are okay to support and which ones are "acceptable targets." this is fucking nasty

my mom hasn’t seen my chest post-op at all because the idea of it is so awful to her that the one time we took my bandages off with her present, she ran across the hotel room to hide from it and started crying to my brother about it (yes, with actual tears). she drove an hour and a half with us at 5:30am to my post-op just to sit in the waiting room because she refused to come in and see me after the surgeon took the bandages off. my dad has been the only one helping me with recovery things like changing bandages and monitoring healing because she still won’t look at my chest.
