Why do I keep seeing transmascs and trans men insisting or implying that all trans men are "female socialized," or "understand the female experience," or "navigated the world as a woman." Because yeah, sure, that can be true for some people. especially if you weren't gnc at all as a kid and didn't crack your egg until well into adulthood, it makes sense.

But they don't stop at saying they had that experience. It always comes with an addendum that trans men, as a group, all can relate to this experience. I don't know about the entirety of my demographic, but I never got even a little bit of what some of them talk about. I didn't even believe that women were scared of going out at night until I kept consistently seeing them say it, online or wherever, for years. I never realized catcalling was a thing until I saw some women complaining about it on reddit.

But they posit it as some sort of, you're safer than cis men, right? You know what it's like? Which, on top of being patently, demonstrably false in the case of myself and many other trans men, holds some unpleasant and often outright hostile implications about trans women. And they always deny it, but if you can't even conceptualize someone like me who grew up gnc, and never got the bulk (or any?) of whatever we consider to be 'female socialization,' what does that say about what you think trans girls went through, growing up? I don't want to speak for them, as I've never experienced that firsthand, but I can guarantee that (if you're even a little bit obviously trans) people don't treat you like a cis kid of the opposite gender. By and large, they don't get treated like cis boys.

It just makes me mad that we're taking this inaccurate framework that (ever so conveniently) puts trans people into the box of our assumed birth gender, and trying to fancy it up and use it with a faux-progressive veneer; never mind the way that transphobes use it to bar trans women from being athletes, or using the bathroom, or having access to any gendered resources they need. It would be bad enough to try and dust it off and use it even if it were largely accurate, due to the aforementioned connections to outright transphobia, but it literally is patently false. Not in all cases, obviously, but why are we trying to revamp this untrue, inaccurate generalization and pretend that we can make it 'trans-inclusive?'

hi. so... if i seem quieter lately, it's because this past spring and summer i was voraciously stalked and harrassed. the restraining order was finalized a few months ago, so i am safe for the moment, but i still haven't found my new normal just quite yet. my heartbeat has not slowed. my hands are not as still as they once were. i am not who i was before it happened.

i'm announcing this because i dont think daily comics will ever return- not as they were, anyway. this horrific experience has changed my relationship to art and comics and life in an enormous way that will take me a very long time to figure out. i even TRIED to make a comic about this experience, something that is usually as natural as breathing to me, and found that i could not get through a single panel without triggering my newfound ptsd around this situation.

i really don't know what making art or posting online will look like for me moving forward. i'll figure it out as i go, i don't think i'll stop yet...but i figured i should say something as this has impacted everything about how i do anything now. thanks for reading, thanks for enjoying my art, thanks for engaging with me kindly, no matter what happens to my internet presence. i mean it from the bottom of my heart. love you
