#I genuinely feel so sad for all the people in this film who detransitioned or left their loving partners

[audhdnight]

Apparently it’s actually a documentary(???)

You can watch it for free on their website and just because I apparently love to torture myself I think I will watch it and probably tear it to shreds (also I’m going to see how many fake “testimonies” I can identify because I SERIOUSLY doubt that story about a trans mother hating her daughter for being a girl is real.

Anyways this is the trailer and it’s very alarming on its own but peep the use of a skinny, young, conventionally attractive white woman as the ideal of purity - as opposed to all the people they have give “testimonies” immediately before 😐

So I knew in theory that anti-trans propaganda was in a lot of media right, but I guess I never really expected it to be so… blatant? Like one of those “bless your heart” subtext type of deals

But my sister who goes to a catholic school was very excited to tell me today about a movie they watched in class about a trans woman (who both she and the movie misgender the entire time) and it’s about how transness traumatizes kids. Apparently this trans woman has a daughter that she treats horrifically badly because she’s jealous and there’s like a scene where the parent emotionally abused the child over a dress, saying “I deserve that dress!” Or something

And of course the resolution is when the trans woman realizes she’s actually really a man and being trans is wrong and it’s the reason her daughter is scarred for life and blah blah blah

I just… I genuinely can’t believe that people fall for this shit. That they watch it and genuinely go “oh yeah I see how that could happen, trans is definitely bad”

Like what the fuck man
