(1) about the author
(2) some quick disclaimers!
(3) what is a genderbend?
(4) what is a cisswap?
(5) transphobia vs cissexism
(6) are genderbends/cisswaps transphobia? not exactly. but they are cissexist, which is STILL INCREDIBLY HARMFUL.
(7) tell you more? oh dear reader, I shall.
(8) assumption one: secondary sexual characteristics are indicative of gender.
(9) genderbends/cisswaps are super focused on secondary sexual characteristics
(10) body parts ARE NOT gender! nope!
(11) assumption two: trans people must meet cisgender standards of bodies and beauty to be valid.
(12) look up appearance policing if you want to learn more.
(13) straight is not the default, and neither is cis *cue Love, Simon montage*
(14) assumption four: gender is a switch that easily flips back and forth between male and female.
(15) if only it was that easy, folks
(16) you don& #39;t have to medically transition to be trans! cis folks, if someone doesn& #39;t "seem" trans enough because they aren& #39;t medically transitioning - they are trans enough! scoop those judgements right outta yer silly heads!
(17) what can cis allies do to help????
(19) references n& #39; shit
