Oh Awesome, They're Finally Being Mask Off With Their Racism.

Oh awesome, they're finally being mask off with their racism.

this is so fucking racist holy shit do these people hear themselves

challenge: there is a trans man. he is pre-medical transition. you must not infantilize him. go.

tip for people who struggle with pronouns: fake it until you make it. I'd rather someone theatrically get my pronouns right than blatantly ignore them in place of the 'easier' option for them. I'd rather have someone go 'IT went to the coffee shop to get HIR morning coffee' than 'they, they, they' when it's in obvious replacement of my preferred pronouns.

Nobody with an ounce of patience expects you to be a pronoun god, but we do expect our pronouns and identities to not be brushed under the rug for the comfort of yourself. and people who do 'throw fits' have every right to, because it's fucking insulting to not be correctly gendered after politely correcting people like we often do. people have pronoun pins, or even pieces of clothing to give you visual cues (though looking at clothing cannot be a foolproof way to aid in guessing someone's pronouns) of what they like to be called, as well; for example, I saw this tiktok of somebody with they/them earrings who apparently STILL got misgendered, and that's when it very much feels purposeful.

don't be a dick. Unless you want to be lumped with the 'what is a woman', genital obsessed weirdoes, put the damn effort in.

I'm not non binary?????

Hello! I saw your post about TMA/TME being another binary and it being intersexist. I genuinely want to understand why you think so because the way I’ve seen it being used wasn’t meant to create another binary. It was just for people who experience transmisogyny to have a term for themselves. It’s not based on your agab or your sex. You don’t have to be (amab) transfem to be tma. Plus, in the spaces I’ve seen it being used, it’s understood that being tme/tma can change. One’s relationship to the term can be complicated. I’ve shared my point of view so if it’s okay, I’d like to understand yours.

I don't know how else to tell you this, but any framework that's essentially oppressed/not oppressed, at least in the way it can easily get used, is eventually going to char intersex people in the desire of perisex (and, let's be honest, widely white) trans people to come out on top in the oppression olympics. even if some people can actually acknowledge us for once, there are others who act like only perisex trans women can be 'TMA' and to hell with everyone else... except those who happen to be 'AMAB'. I've actually seen an intersex person in favor of it admit that it's completely based on what you were born as.

'"...maybe intersex people who were assigned female can be tma" literally NO THEY CAN'T the whole thing about transmisogyny is that it's based around your assigned gender'

that is the direct quote. do you see how this gets intersexist? intersex people assigned female at birth can be affected by transmisogyny, but some people don't want to think so because then their viewpoints explode. you say someone's experiences with TME/TMA can be complicated but I've seen more than enough people water it down to 'AMAB only', so whether or not it was not intended that way in its creation, it is still at risk to be used as a weapon to try to push everyone into gendered and often sex based boxes which, say it with me, hurts intersex people. it happens too much to just be coincidental.

if you want to listen to more intersex people about this, I suggest looking at this post (link) as well as this one (link). I'm tired of perisex trans people acting like us saying anything is such a fucking affront to them (/nay); they cover up their intersexism with cries that the person calling them out on it is simply 'transmisogynistic' and I'm tired of it. We're never listened to and used as a talking point when it suits perisex trans people if ANYTHING, and when we dare have a back bone about blatant intersexism in the trans community, perisex trans people lose their minds because we dared not stay in the shadows while letting the perisex people rule the conversation.
