some cis people will jump on ANY chance to make fun of transmasc people like when any opportunity arrises theyre ready to share all the jokes theyve been holding onto at our expense and then just say “uh no this isnt transphobic! the op was validating trans men!” shut the fuck up
HOT TIP! talking about how you want to lock up and kill all men and SPECIFICALLY INCLUDING TRANS MEN is not fun and woke and inclusive to trans men! why do you think joking about how much you want to kill us is fun and validating to us just because it means youre calling us men?
the refusal to understand that ‘kill all men’ and similar sentiments comes from the privilege Cis Men Specifically have and hold over everyone else, YES, INCLUDING TRANS MEN, is what leads to people thinking trans men are “betrayers” and other terf rhetoric! fucking stop it!
then theres cis ppl in the comments LITERALLY making that exact comment on trans men getting caged along with cis men for “betraying” them and when told thats terf rhetoric respond “no its not bc im not a terf! i was making fun of terfs!” NO YOURE LITERALLY JUST BEING TRANSPHOBIC
plus hundreds of (cis!) people in the comments like “pack it up kai, aiden, elliot!! đŸ€Ł get in the cage!!” like what the FUCK makes you think thats okay? like youre just using this as a platform to share all your funny little transphobic jokes under the guise of hating men, which
is funny when the ‘transmasc names’ joke IS A THING IN THE FIRST PLACE BC TRANSMASC PPL TEND TO PICK LESS CONVENTIONAL MASCULINE NAMES. BECAUSE. YOU KNOW. WE HAVE A FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT UNDERSTANDING OF AND RELATIONSHIP TO MASCULINITY. FUNNY HOW THAT WORKS HUH??
and the fucking heartbreak. of seeing comments like “i’ll get in the cage if it means you’ll call me a boy :,)” from young trans men. like how does it not literally break your heart to know this boy’s relationship with his gender is going to be tied to punishment?
and every time this gets brought up someone is so quick to bring up transmeds who want to act like misogynistic cis men like they represent the whole community when really they can hurt us just as much as cis people, plus that every fcking community has shitheels in it
god im just. im so mad. im so frustrated of being either infantilized, demonized, fetishized, or completely ignored by everyone both within and outside our community. im so fucking tired. i really am.
