I'm so glad that y'all are so into Monkey Man and the badass hijra priestess army, but friendly reminder that hijra are NOT trans women. Hijra are their own distinct gender; trans women are women. India has both :)
Lol. You can first block transmisogyny-ratio-reader and then use the blog to actually follow people who are not raging bigots against anyone who's not a trans radfem
update 3 hours later: The blog is now transmisogyny-ratio-reader2! Which she's using to block and ban evade to keep spewing her bigotry.
I do wanna point out that one of if not both the twins could also be intersex!
You’ve activated the infodump button regarding trans headcanons for the younger Pines twins:
At least one of those kids is trans. They’re said to be identical twins, which means they would’ve been assigned the same sex at birth. In order for them to be presenting as different genders at the time of the show, that means that one is trans. (Or they both are, but one hasn’t figured it out yet.)
I lean towards Dipper being transmasc and Mabel being cis, but I really enjoy all the different variations of trans headcanons people have come up with.
Gonna be a little obsessed with the idea of them both being transmasc since the previous anon mentioned transmasc Mabel, because I’m gonna be real, it hadn’t occurred to me that they might both be trans until reading that ask.
I think Gravity Falls has enough weirdness going on that thanks to supernatural gubbins the two can be trans in every direction and cis all at the same time, like quantum physics.
i go on instagram. i see that them magazine has posted an article about how to have sex with transmascs (written by a transmasc). i go to the comments. people complain about, amongst other things, how the first paragraph is transmisognistic and that there's no similar article for transfems. i go to the article. the first paragraph has a line about how transmascs are erased, with a link to an article about erasure. i leave instagram and put my head directly through the nearest wall
"Transandrophobia isn't real because that implies trans women oppress trans men" it doesn't, but do you think this way because you think transmisogyny means trans men oppress trans women?
"Transandrophobia is reactionary to transmisogyny and is just a way to make trans men feel special and more important" it isn't, but do you think that way because you think Transmisogyny is more "special and important" than other forms of oppression?
"Androphobia and misandry aren't real, so transandrophobia can't be" because you're basing your viewpoint on transmisogyny, and misogyny is the ultimate victimhood for you, right? Because we can't have a conversation separate from transmisogyny, because transmisogyny is the worst form of victimization, and everything stems from misogyny, especially transmisogyny. If you're not talking about misogyny, you might as well shut up.
And we can't have issues that aren't shared with cis people, because otherwise we aren't "really" men and women. Because white cishet people are the ones we should be looking to when we "prove" our identity through our suffering, right?
To be a woman, you have to suffer. To be a man, you can never suffer. You can never just be. You have guilt and shame and violence and self sacrifice to be doing if you dare to transition into power.
Because if you, a trans man, don't have male privilege, that must mean that trans women do, because we all live in opposite to eachother, even though the framework of male privilege is something made by and for cis people. If trans women are suffering, that must mean that you aren't.
You can't talk about your own life or struggles or else you're indirectly talking about trans women, and cis men, and cis women, and everyone else except you.
(And fuck non-binary and intersex people and whatever they have going on with their identities that shits just not important to our oppositional viewpoint, right? We can make them fit in this box based off of their genitals, anyway. Dont bring racism into this either, you're just being misogynistic if you do.)
Looking at tumblr makes me anxious lately so sorry for not really replying to anything for a while. Just popping on cause I was thinking about early 00's culture, specifically how gender was marketed to children back then. If you were a girl, you were better than boys. If you were a boy, girls were worse than you. I don't think that was a healthy mindset to teach to children. I wonder how much it's affected the modern culture now that those children are adults?
It's funny to me that the same people who wax poetic about how they'd Never pedojack a transfem, will just read some posts about posts about how transmascs are seeking to destroy the concept of transmisogyny for the sick masculine pleasure of oppressing women, and automatically believe it. Like, clearly you are unable to actually hone the ability not fall for transphobic smear campaigns lol.
not liking being seen as a man doesn't give you the right to treat men like shit.
not wanting to be associated with manhood, personally, does not mean you get to treat people who DO want to be associated with manhood like shit.
not wanting your body to have high levels of testosterone does not give you the right to tell other people that testosterone is a "poison" or that it will "ruin your body". testosterone was bad for you. it's not bad for everyone. i was forced on to estrogen HRT as a teenager due to being intersex and i literally fucking hated every single moment of it because it made me miserable. estrogen is not "pure" and testosterone is not "evil". estrogen almost ruined my health and my life.
you are traumatized by cisheternormative patriarchy. you are not traumatized by the concept of manhood.
trans men are not talking about their struggles with corrective rape, misgendering, transandrophobia, misogyny, violence, homelessness, substance abuse and domestic violence to diminish what we go through. we BOTH face these issues and for some reason you're just literally choosing to erase what an entire group of people that you don't occupy goes through for... what exactly ?
hating trans men and misgendering them and treating them like shit is transphobia.
what are you trying to accomplish here? do you give a fuck about trans rights at all? or is this about feeling powerless in cisheternormative society, so you feel you have to control someone else?
if trans women talking about the experience of being a trans woman doesn't take space away from trans men talking about the experience of being trans men, then the opposite isn't true, either.
if the concept of transmisogyny doesn't take space away from people discussing transandrophobia, then the opposite is also true.
do y'all hear yourselves? hating trans men won't make cisheternormative society like you better. hating trans men won't make transmisogyny go away. throwing trans men under the bus won't make queerphobes treat and accept you better. all you're doing is being transphobic. who does that help exactly?
ask yourself: are you in this because you want to express who you are on the inside, or are you in this to be a bully? if the only reason you're here is to treat men like shit because you don't like being seen as a man, the door is right there. kissing up to rad fems won't make them see you as more of a woman, just so you're painfully aware. they will always hate us. stop sucking up to people who literally want you to die.
trans women aren't the only trans people who suffer under cisheternormative patriarchy. accept this and move on. stop finding every excuse you can think of to misgender other trans people. it's not going to help you heal from your dysphoria and the trauma society has given you.
whatever i don't wanna post to main for whatever reason. expect lots of aesthetic posts and heavy/controversial topics ig.
