I Hate That Sentiment Of "you Weren't Friendless In High School Because You Liked Anime, You Were Friendless

I hate that sentiment of "you weren't friendless in high school because you liked anime, you were friendless because you were an asshole, hope this helps :)" because even when there's a grain of truth to it, there's such a willful ignorance of just how baseless teenage ostracism can get, and that it likely wasn't proportional or helpful at all

I'm not like a Little Monster or anything but I will always have some fondness for Lady Gaga for giving the single greatest response to someone asking her to enforce transmisogyny by holding her cisness hostage (by asking if she has a penis a.k.a if she's a tranny) : "Would it be so terrible?" A bisexual woman earnestly putting a mirror up to the cis gay man who thrives in respectability politics interviewing her, showing him the simple kindness that he lacks towards trans women thanks to society's transmisogyny. Why should it be an insult? Why are we treating this question as a threat to a woman's value? Stephanie refused to engage, pure and simple, even if it shocked people that she didn't protect herself by upholding transmisogyny and I think that's one of the best things a cis woman can say to truly counter transmisogyny.

you cant be talking about women like that ftm baby
