Unpopular Opinion. No. I don't include trans men in my feminism.

Wisdom is hard earned. As a blk woman I had to learn the hard lesson of the word RECIPROCATION.

I had to really look at how the pple I benefitted me & trans men do not benefit us.

They throw us under the bus
Every chance they get in order to prove their manhood to the greater male fraternity that they're trying to gain entry into.

Yes I understand there are exceptions to the rule but understand. The majority makes the rule & from what I've seen with trans men the pattern followed is
1. They try hard. Like really really hard to compensate for the fact that they are born female.

They become needlessly misogynistic in order to "fit in" & they are ALSO a part of the TRA woke mob. They too are pushing for terms like "uterus haver" and all that crap so they can
Escape the term woman.

Many pple blame trans women for diluting the meaning of our descriptors in order for them to be included.

And while yes. It's true that they are to blame what abt the trans men who are doing everything in THEIR power to escape it? What abt them?
If u've been following me so far you'd know that I'm not into codling anyone.

I have the smoke for everyone. Even my own group. Black women. No one is safe.

But from what I've seen the GC community more or less either pays no attention to the wierd fuck shit trans men are on
Or they try to explain it away in a whole "Well they're just trying to escape misogyny, It's all male supremacy's fault. We were socialised, blah blah blah."

FUCK THAT!

It's trans men doing shit like "free bleeding" in public to push the idea that not only women have periods😒
Yes. It's not lost on me that there are exceptions to this but you know what? Not enough. Not fucking enough for me.

Being a part of the black community thought me that you can't just protect pple bcs you're a part of the same group.

I had to learn that the hard way.
The way GC feminists coddle & fail to hold trans men accountable for THEIR part in the TRA agenda reminds me of the way the black community does THE EXACT SAME with black men.

The same black men who spit on our name. Divest from our community but then still expect our support.
It also reminds me of the mammying black women that coddle said black men. Make their bed soft & choose to shield them from the consequences of their actions all in the name of blackness.

We have a word for this on #DivestTwitter and it's called MULING.
If someone spits on your name. Purposefully blocks your agenda. Divests from your community but then still expect to have access to the resources in that community. And the community allows it guess who those pple in the community are?

They're fucking Mules.
When black men screw up but they've spent the majority of their lives attacking black women. I don't put on a Cape & go Cape for them.

I leave it be and let them lie in the bed they've made.

GC feminists shuld learn to do the same.
U don't have to save trans men from the consequences of their actions. Leaved them the fuck alone.

They fucking chose this shit.

They wanted access into male fraternity. What the fuck does it look like when they start complaining abt how they don't fit in bcs of misogyny to us?
How the fuck is that OUR problem? Leave them the hell alone.

Whatever issues they face in life as trans men is no longer any of our business. We have better shit to do.

We have more IMPORTANT shit to do.

Learn to leave pple that want to be left alone, fucking alone.
Have the strength to say. "U've made your bed. Now lay in it."

Feminism is the women's right movement. Everything we do is to insure a better life & future for women & girls.

Trans men say that they are not women.

They can go advocate for their damn selves. I'm tired. 😒
