this?

this is terf shit.

idc if you're technically "including" trans people in your man-hating.

this is terf shit.

"men are completely evil due to their gender"? terf shit. "marginalized men telling me to step away from bioessentialism are evil?" terf shit. "women are the top most oppressed class?" terf shit. "transmascs act like victims?" terf shit. all that "sisterhood" "i hate men" "i love other women who hate men let's bond over how much we hate men"? that's terf shit. sure, it's not technically "trans exclusionary" since look, see, they love trans women! but if you examine what terfs and radfems like them actually believe - that is, the root behind all of their ideology - this sort of gender essentialism is exactly their platform.

a PSA to all the lovely people out there, especially trans people: if you see somebody like this, somebody talking like this, they are not your friend. prioritizing hate over love is not the trans ally take they think it is.

and if you are a woman and you think you get to speak over any and all sorts of marginalized men who go through so much shit not just in spite of but because of their gender, you are not an "intersectional feminist." you are not a trans ally. if you think trans people who fight for trans rights - which includes trans men, if you can believe it - are just "MRA"s, you are not! a! safe! person!

stay safe out there 💓 trans love forever

#you ever see a “trans positive” post that just gives you a gross feeling in your stomach #and look in the notes and go “ohhhhh its because theyre hiding behind trans inclusive language to be hateful fucks”#not a rb #transandrophobia #transphobia #gender essentialism #been doing a lot to analyze terfisms in the queer community lately havent i #tbh i find no reason to argue with these people directly #i just want people who arent deep into The Crazy to be able to identify this for what it is #fuck terfs #anti terf #i usually stay out of discourse #but god the way other women in particular treat trans people who aren't women is appalling #especially cis women who claim to be allies #i feel like this is something that needs to be talked about in regards to trans spaces online #because for some reason (i wonder why (its gender essentialism)) this rhetoric shows up far too often for it to be comfortable
