Trans Men Are Men - Tumblr Posts
the face i make when terfs talk
(the only reason i have hufflepuff in my bio is to spite jk rowling cause she would deny my existence)
Fighting transphobia by making the cis (derogatory) as uncomfortable as possible thanks to the trans men.
I love it.

Also while making the tags for my post, typing in “trans men” auto completed to “are women”. Same thing for “trans women” “are men”. And no, this wasn’t my phone auto suggesting that, those were the fucking auto suggested tags tumblr had.
Queerest place on the internet my entire ass
Reblog this ASAP!!!
trying to prove a point to the boys at school
reblog this if you believe trans men are real men like this if you dont
So sick of this, oh my god—
Let trans women play! I guarantee you’ll survive!
Ignoring the evidence that there isn’t even much of an advantage if at all and that there are actually a number of disadvantages for trans women, I hate to break it to you; sports have never been fair.
There’s always been a taller guy in basketball, a smaller woman in gymnastics, hell, Michael Phelps has a million advantages on his competition. People have never once cared! These things are celebrated for cis people!
If you cared so much about equality in sports, make sure all the basketball players all the same height. If you cared so much about women’s sports, increase pay and improve treatment of athletes. If you cared about women at all, pay them equally and get your legislation off their bodies.
You don’t care. You just want to be transphobic.

For those who don't know, if a transphobe says:
-"think of the children"
-"gender-affirming surgeries are mutilating"
-"trans women are a danger to 'real' women"
They are trying to scare/anger you into making you believe their arguments, because their arguments hold no true weight in the real world.
Trans "allies" when they see a trans femboy/not passing boy:
awww, so soft and cute! your a little uwu boy huhhh?
Trans "allies" when they see a trans man/passing boy:
ew.
(or)
*blatantly sexualizes either of them for no reason, without their consent*
(some trans boys like being an "uwu"/"soft"/"cute" boy but not all of us- esspecially ones that arent passing yet- it can even hurt. feels like your infantilizing us in a way yk.)
I want to have more representation of trans men that don't bind, and are happy with that. I want to have more representation of trans men who dress fem, and are happy with that. I want more representation of trans men who aren't on testosterone, and are happy with that. I want more representation of trans men who decide to become pregnant, and are happy with that.
I want more representation of trans men who aren't trans "the right way", so we can teach people that there is no such thing as the "right way to be trans".
Terfs can't define women.
I just realized there's no real way for terfs to define "woman" without excluding other women or including some men.
"Woman is someone with breasts." Almost everyone has breast tissue, including men.
"Woman is someone with more breast tissue than men." Some women have less breast tissue than some men, and some people (women included) are actually born without breast tissue.
"Women are people with uteruses." There are rare cases where a cis man is born with a uterus and often doesn't realize it.
"Women are people with vaginas" includes trans women who've had bottom surgery, intersex people who identify as male, and trans men who haven't had bottom surgery.
"Women are people who can internally carry eggs in the pelvic region" excludes barren women and includes some intersex men.
"Women are people who were made to give birth" includes some intersex men and excludes some intersex women.
"Women are people with cervical ribs" includes some men with down syndrome and excludes most women. Cervical ribs are actually rare, with a 1 in 200 ratio.
"Women are people who have been assigned female at birth" includes intersex women, which in turn means some women have penises.
"Women are people who can't grow facial hair" excludes women with a higher testosterone count than the average female.
"A woman is someone without a prostate" includes men who don't have prostates, either from a birth abnormality or surgery.
"A woman is someone who doesn't need estrogen to be more feminine" excludes women with a higher testosterone count than the average female.
"A woman is someone with a natural vagina" includes intersex men and excludes intersex women.
"A woman is someone with a naturally high voice" includes some males and excludes some females.
"A woman is someone without the urge to commit sexual crimes" excludes some women. Women are as capable of such a crime as men.
"A woman cannot orgasm" excludes almost all women and includes some men.
"Women are assigned female at birth and designed to carry eggs internally in the pelvic region" includes trans men and intersex women with both sets of genitalia, meaning women can have penises.
"Women are assigned female at birth, designed to carry eggs internally in the pelvic region, and don't have a penis" excludes intersex women and includes trans men who haven't had bottom surgery.
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH YALL
Congrats to those who know what they are and who they like cause I sure as hell dont!!🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ (But I atleast know one thing, I'm Demiromantic👍)
To celebrate, here's my favorite homo shippp:
THIS You know who else sees straight trans men as lesbians? Literal fucking terfs. Our maleness is real and for a lot of us it’s a biological brain sex thing, so don’t group as in with women. Stop trying to alienate us from cis men under the guise of wokeness. Why do they see me as so different from a cis guy just cause I have the wrong body?
This might be different for enbies, but binary transsexual and transgender men shouldn’t be put in the “queer afabs” camp because a) we are not the thing we were mistaken for at birth and b) not all of us are queer. If someone’s transmasc and feel like their experience of being afab is part of their identity thats fine, but people use that as an excuse to belittle and cause me dysphoria. Just group me in with cis men because that’s who I felt like I belonged to my whole life.
Also thing is not a tucute vs truscum thing that debate is fucking stupid and I am in neither group. Sorry this post is so salty but people are disrespecting and causing me dysphoria and I’m pissed.
Saying that transgender men can identify as lesbians but cis men cannot reinforces the idea that trans men aren’t really men. That they’re some sort of subcategory of a man and that they’ll never be man enough. It’s just fucking transphobic. They’re men. Straight men. Not lesbians.

Shout-out to a friend for showing me this!!
bitches be like “trans woman aren’t woman” okay, who is? Give me a single definition of woman that isn’t “assigned female at birth” that excludes all trans women and no cis woman, you fucking can’t bitch. Same goes with trans men asshole.
I've noticed a rise in radfems/TERFs in feminism tags and more specifically trying to rebrand as The Real Feminism or True Feminism since it's "for the girlies" or whatever.
I am begging you all to help me bury them.
Because as a teen who grew up during the peak of exclusionary "bi/pan/aces aren't vaild" and "kill all men" era where the concept of misandry THRIVED I'm telling you this feels extremely similar.
And radfem/terf ideology got mainstream from those sentiments being so popular and so easy to tap into. It was framed as being righteous since men were oppressors.
"Women are good and men are just mean oppressors! Look at everything they've done!" is such a common sentiment in those circles.
It also completely lacks critical feminist thought.
And we're STILL dealing with the affects of it over a decade later.
.....So let's talk about JKR since she's currently the Figurehead and favorite of the movement that's trying to rewrite feminist history.
It's 2023. It's a year before a US election where Project 2025 and Trump would happily create a road for trans and queer folks to be imprisoned if not worse.
Which is I'm sure why JKR has been photographed and interacting with multiple members from The Heritage Foundation, people whove spoken for them, and people who attended theyre meetings. She even enjoyed watching Magdalen, who who she credits for becoming a TERF.
But do you know who Magdalen is? Or what else she was saying? What about any of the other people in the photo? Do you know the scope of what JKR was internalizing and how bad it was? Do you know she has ties to conservative anti-abortion groups?
Do you know what The Heritage Foundation? Probably not and they're the worst so let me tell you why it's such a huge red flag for her and other so-called TERFs and radfems to be associated with them.
Because I can tell you right now she heard a lot of things from those people and there is no fucking way in hell that it was just about queer people or just some sex-specific concerns. And it wasn't just passive bigotry.
Anyone who doesn't conform to the idea of a white, straight nuclear family (re: single mothers, leftists, immigrants, gay couples, etc) is made out to be an enemy of the state.
Anyone they can justify as a "national threat." Yes, they call us all a national threat on their site, their book, and the pamphlets they pass out to politicians. The details are listed on their website including the Mandate For Leadership which is their instruction guide for the next president.
I'm not exaggerating when I say it calls for genocide, prison camps, and eugenic cleansing.
Several people in that photo don't even support abortion, a basic women's rights that JKR claims to care about deeply.
JKR was consuming white supremacist dogma under the guise of feminism.
And she's not willing to admit or correct it which is where the problem lies. She won't even admit to herself that she was fooled or that it's bad or hypocritical.
My concern is that she is not the only person who's fallen for it and there are more everyday.
So it's very important to me y'all learn how to filter out what Actual Feminism is in this age where literal fascism is attempting to take its place.
Firstly,
Real, actual feminism will be welcoming to EVERYONE
Because the patriarchy doesn't only affect women or cis people or white women and it's an insult to every previous feminist icon to say otherwise.
Feminists have been fighting for decades to unite people under the concept that Patriarchy is a system that will be brought down with allyship and solidarity.
They've been fighting so hard and so long to prove that everyone deserves the same rights as men.
That women are just as capable as men and shouldn't be stopped from entering fields of study and sports dominated by men. They've been fighting to prove that women are just as capable and smart as any man is, that men would benefit from it dismantling patriarchy too.
Women fought side by side with the queer community to get Roe v Wade passed in 1973. You know why? Because despite what radfems and TERFs will tell you trans women benefit from protecting and standing up for bodily autonomy.
Do not let bigots tear drive a wedge between two groups that experience gender based oppression and would benefit from the same exact rights.
We have changed history together and they're terrified we'll do it again.

Notice how the T is included. They even posted this video two years ago when LGBT and specifically trans rights started really coming under attack in 2022.
Trans women are women.
Trans men are men.
ALL women deserve rights.
Every gender deserves equality and fairness.
And feminism is for all of us or it is for none of us.
Because nobody deserves to be treated the way patriarchy treats us.
