Actually, no. I'm saying something. This is going to be dysphoric for me to say and for many to read, but

Rich white women are literally going to the doctor and copy-pasting features from other races onto themselves in an effort to look more feminine. I want you to examine that https://twitter.com/dissonant7th/status/1297398758041432065
I'm not saying I personally believe that white features are "masculine" but I do find it weird how most of the features people are paying to get rid of aren't really "masculine" so much as they are just

visible indicators of whiteness
I'd also encourage trans folks to question the association between typically white features & supposed "masculinity"

like I see too many people who just look like a regular white girl who think they need FFS because they don't have a buttload of lip and cheek filler
This thread is now a mess

but that's just the thing

racism and misogyny and transmisogyny and transmisogynoir intersect in so many ways that it's inevitably (at least at some points) going to be deeply uncomfortable for most white people to really engage w/ and dismantle
