The way people talk about gnc women, particularly young gnc girls in this instance, is point-blank victim blaming.

Every damn gnc woman I know was bullied for their gender nonconformity when they were a kid, ESPECIALLY with homophobia as the undercurrent. But these self-righteous dingbats writing their cutesy articles about how “masc privilege” oppresses “women and femmes” will look straight at a bunch of feminine girls harassing and degrading a gnc girl and call them Empowered Feminists for fighting off Toxic Masculinity.

You’re telling girls, a great many of which aren’t straight, that they deserve punishment for the way they look and dress. That’s it. There is no way to argue around that. You are telling them their abuse is just a natural result of some inherent flaw, that they earned it for having Internalized Misogyny (not what that means).

What the fuck do you think you’re doing to them and their sense of self by saying that the only way that they can happily present themselves is inherently destructive and threatening? That they’re exactly like the boys who are most certainly threatening and harassing them too? That they’re probably insidious predators for even daring to think that someone could like them while they’re so PROUD of being “unattractive” (to you)?

Stop making excuses for why you condone the abuse of gender nonconforming girls and women. Stop pretending that their abuse is somehow not misogyny in itself. Stop teaching us that the only way for us to exist is to hate ourselves.

like yea beau wasn’t an ass to jester…but if you really think about it, sure she was obnoxious, but she wasn’t an outright ass to nott or yasha either. like,,,beau building a wall between herself and Men because she knows no matter what she does she can’t win,,distancing herself from their violence, their judgement, their dismissal in any way she can?? like youtube comments can say beau’s a bitch all they want, but for real that’s just womanhood, babey! that’s some relabtle content! so thanks as always, marisha for that brilliant portrayal !!

you

The closer to the end the more satisfying it gets…

Lesbians: hey can you involve us in pride? Were already not welcome in the cishet world and it makes us feel invisible when our own community leaves us out.

Non lesbians: id love to but your flag was made by a racist :/

Lesbians: ok well theres awlways the purple labrys flag! Its been around for a long time too.

Non lesbians: uhhhh thats a terf dog whistle???

Lesbians: … what? No. Why do you even think that- you know what fine whatver.

Lesbians: We made a pink and orange flag we can all agree on that not “problematic” or “canceled” and represents butches, femmes, neither and nb lesbians. Were really proud of this one and it looks like a sunset so use this one!

Non lesbians: but its so hard to make merch for, its too many colors
