You Can Only Reblog This Today. One Reblog = One Puppy Petted

honestly now that you mention it, i sure am.

queer people who have done zero self reflection when they see someone who doesn't look fem in their space

THIS TOWN IS FULL OF MONSTERS. HOW CAN YOU SIT THERE AND EAT PIZZA

“there are femboys who are cis men” there are femboys who say they are cis men girl 😭 don’t be dense you know the difference. did you have male privilege when you were trapped in the closet? or is there some magic soul difference between you and all the “cis men” who haven’t come out as trans yet? be for real. stop appealing to magic soul gender. gender analysis has to be material: crossdressers are TMA. crossdressers crossdress for “sex” or for “performance” or for “fetish” or a million different other reasons because it is socially unacceptable to express it in their public lives, even partially, even if they don’t come out as trans women. do you think Eddie Izzard was immune to transmisogyny before a few years ago? Do you think that didn’t affect job opportunities etc?

whether you want to classify these people as victims or perpetrators (or somewhere in between) the fact is that there is a very real social and legal incentive for sissies and crossdressers and femboys and drag queens to draw a line and say "i am still a cis man, i am not one of those trans women" in not so many words. And they benefit from that and sell it and tme people celebrate it in a way they do not when that line is crossed.

this isn't some "magic soul difference" or whatever bad faith argument you're assuming of me; this is just the clear and simple statement that people view and treat feminine AMAB people differently once they say "i am not a man", once we demand to be respected as women.

every time i see discourse about pedohysteria amidst a trans genocide i think about that news article from 2016 about the mexican immigrant who voted for trump because trump said he’d get rid of all the “bad hombres” from mexico, only to be deported himself because it turns out what trump was really saying was that he wanted to deport all mexicans, not just “the bad ones”

not just him, but there were many other examples too, like white conservatives who have mexican immigrant friends and family or people in the community important to them who were mexican immigrants, and they voted for trump because they thought trump was just getting rid of “criminals”, and then they regret it when their families and communities get torn apart by deportations of their spouses, their friends, their favourite restaurant owners, etc.

anyways, i hope young queers, trans people esp, understand that when conservatives talk about “pedophiles” and “groomers”, they’re not talking about actual child abusers, they’re talking about all queer people. they’re talking about all trans people. it’s why in florida, they’re categorizing “drag” as a child sex crime, and making sex crimes against children punishable by death. they’re trying to execute every single trans person, and that’s just the rhetoric they’re using

so stop buying into the pedohysteria. it’s easy to think “well, i’m not a pedophile, so i’ll be safe” when you don’t realize that in the eyes of conservatives, every single queer person is a pedophile and deserves death, and contributing to their rhetoric by trying to figure out which trans woman is a pedophile is just accelerating your own march to the gallows

One thing about me is I will never abide by anyone who calls themselves "detrans" with any level of pride

Happy spooky month!
