When trans men complain about "getting left behind" by trans women because we tend to be featured more in trans discourse (as though this visibility is to be desired?) this is a rough translation of what they mean to say and are just barely clever enough not to air it so openly.

The tweet this is in response to: "if you're a cis woman you should be spending your quarantine time growing a dick so you can fit in with us hot trans babes." It plays into chasers' fetishization of us, but certainly doesn't harm any non trans woman, def not this Ashton dumbass.

This response, from a TERF, calling Ashton and all trans men "socialized female" while Ashton himself likes the comment, this is what we mean when we say that trans men love to misgender themselves as a weapon against trans women in an attempt to legitimize their transmisogyny

This TERF-trans man alliance is where you get a lot of TERFs of the "detransitioner" variety. It's possible to have thought you were a man, realize that the description just doesn't fit you, and NOT be a TERF about it.

Funny how TERFs accept thinking you're a man only to realize later on that you're not actually a man, on the condition that you have a certain type of genitalia. Transmisogyny is so perfectly self-contradicting that you don't even have to expose it.
