#1 - 'transmasculine' (which; in the eyes of this discourse; is 'anyone transitioning away from femininity') nb people are 'tme'
Text
yknow people claim that 'tme/tma' labels are supposed to 'not disclose your assigned gender!!!' but the thing is that... when you present yourself as nonbinary.... it pretty much does
#spire snarls#obviously this is the least of the things wrong with the binary but. i saw a post that pissed me off and now i need to bitch#to elaborate: i see two ways that tme/tma can be applied to nonbinary people.#1 - 'transmasculine' (which; in the eyes of this discourse; is 'anyone transitioning away from femininity') nb people are 'tme'#and 'transfeminine' nb people (or any nb person transitioning away from masculinity) are 'tma'#which means that if you are openly nonbinary and describe yourself as tme/tma you are implicitly stating your AGAB#or 2 - all nb people are 'tme'; which is blatantly untrue and smells like 'nonbinary people are Less Oppressed'#(or secret third thing - it's situational. but this discourse couldnt care less about acknowledging such things; now; could it?)#or maybe im blatantly misunderstanding; if i am; feel free to correct me. but ... with the way ive seen it used i dont feel like i am tbh#no reblogs. not doing that. i dont care about discourse and i am not going to fight anyone today. im just pissy and howling into the void
