You cannot be safe for transfems if you are not also transfeminist. You cannot be an ally to transfems and our liberation if you are not explicitly and loudly transfeminist. Not being transfeminist is not morally neutral or unbiased, it is a clear failing to consider and support the transfems in your life and around the world. If you cannot be transfeminist, then you shouldn't talk to transfems, you shouldn't talk about transfems, and you have no place in our lives or in this world. If there is truly to be revolution or liberation of any kind, it cannot leave anyone behind, and unless you loudly support us then we must assume you are okay leaving us behind.
This includes refusing to engage in callout culture. This includes denouncing the existence of "misandry" and its derivatives. This includes materially supporting the transfems around you through friendship, community, respectful inclusivity, representation, and financial support (where possible). This includes making space for transfems and shutting up to hear transfem voices and uplifting transfem lives.
Words are good, but they alone are not enough. You must be loud, but you must also support us.
