There’s this idea floating around that trans women who make art abt trauma, abuse, uncomfortable gender woes, intrusive thoughts, nonnormative sexual desires, & etc automatically violate your boundaries

Why? Transmisogyny suggests we’re masculine aggressors in feminine skin https://twitter.com/scumbelievable/status/1264738421194579975

We can’t win because we always somehow violate you by existing. We promote stealing. We romanticize abuse. We’re too sexual. Our sexual desires (that you were never invited to!) violate your consent. We are secretly abusers and sexual aggressors.

All of this is just projection.

Look inside. Is this about the artist or is it about you? Do you feel like you’re secretly a masculine infiltrator? Do you struggle with being proud of your trans womanhood? Do you see other trans women as men?

That sucks. But that’s on YOU, go work on yourself.

Enough. It’s time we stop coddling trans women who lash out at other trans women to deal with internalized transmisogyny. You need to fucking stop. Go work on yourself. Get help. Seek therapy. Detach yourself from transmisogynistic cliques in the community.

This work is HARD but you have to do it if you want to enjoy your own presence in life, let alone other trans women. Otherwise you’re just going to keep torturing us for your own demons.

All of this applies to non-trans feminine people too by the way, except it’s not internalized, you just hate us and want an excuse to get rid of us instead of dealing with your shit.

My advice is the same: Work on yourself or fuck off.

I support what @scumbelievable says and how she says it 100% and I’m not gonna fuck around about protecting trans women in the arts. If you’re coming for trans creators, you better be ready for more articles like this, cause we’re not fucking playing. https://www.dailydot.com/irl/trans-sex-messy-trans-art/

Have fun I said what I said!
