#gender stereotype

In it, she refuses the sinuous feminity of most of the Superstars, male and female alike, performing instead an aggressively anti-sexual androgyny, awkward, jittery and amusingly contemptuous.

Saw a post about working class butches in physical labour jobs and wanted to make my own, so: I love you butches who do childcare or early education. I love you butch nurses. I love you butch house cleaners and janitorial staff. I love you service industry butches. I love you butches who do sex work. I love you working class butches who do “feminine” jobs you are cool as hell

"Trans women are doing feminism to repent for the original sin of manhood!" being the line of attack from that genderqueerdykes account is just so ...

Hahahahahahahaha

It's funny. The Lemkin Institute put out a statement today that GCs hate trans women due to "misandry". It was taken down after an outcry from transfems.

Because we refuse to be tokenized, to not be centered in the topic of our own oppression, to be used as a shield for men.

The fear of the tranny finally having a voice, finally having an avenue, a means of redressing millennia of utter epistemic erasure.

You are right to be scared.

Your idols will be ash beneath our soles :)

AGGRIEVED ENTITLEMENT

looks like this:

[The single panel comic has a pink background. A white man with short brown hair wearing a white collared shirt and black pants is sitting on one end of a wide wooden bench. His arms are crossed and he is staring straight ahead, his legs splayed out to either side wider than his hips. To his right stands a woman with dark hair and brown skin wearing a green vest over a lilac long-sleeved shirt and black shirt. She is gesturing with one hand at the bench, smiling as she looks sideways at it.]

Woman: I THINK I DESERVE TO SIT ON THIS BENCH TOO!

[Below the first drawing, the woman is now sitting on the opposite end of the bench, her hands on her closed knees. She is looking sideways apprehensively at the man who has fallen onto the ground. His arms are flung out and he looks horrified.]

White man: OH MY GOD I'VE BEEN PUSHED OFF! THERE'S NO ROOM FOR ME ON [Underlined text.] MY [End underlined text.] BENCH ANYMORE!

I want so badly to live in blissful ignorance and imagine that an ace attorney world with Fem!Phoenix and Fem!Edgeworth would be totally the same except with cool women lawyers, but I fear the casual sexism of the early otts would heavily impact the plot :(

this is insane why are we doing misogyny on cats what the Fuck does girl cat and boy cat mean and why are we calling female cats annoying and mean while boy cats are sweet and handsome. we're literally never getting out. there's nothing to do you people don't want to change

Stop telling trans people they're being sexist/perpetuating gender stereotypes when they mourn not having typical experiences of the gender they identify with.

I want a group of guy friends to consider me 'one of the boys', a dad who calls me 'son' and watches the grand prix with me, a brother who I could play football with in the park.

I wish I was raised doing sports and with action figures and comic books rather than socialised with toy kitchens and dresses and pushed to thrive only in academics.

But if I tell anyone that I get told I'm being misogynist. And I get it, gender roles & stereotypes are a problem, but that doesn't change the feelings and experiences that trans people have had or missed out on.

Not having these typical 'boy' experiences as a kid makes me feel separate from other guys. It forces me to stand out as different because I can't relate to them, and that is a painful feeling. Don't make it an invalid one too.

Do you now, or have you ever, called yourself a femboy?

Curious about something. The initial craze over the exact femboy aesthetic seemed to mostly be from 2019-2023 or so, and is much calmer now. For one, it does seem like it increased the overall, casual acceptance of cis gender nonconformity, but also helped a lot of people discover their own trans identities, whether they were transfemme, nonbinary, or transmascs finding new ways to relate to femininity. Obviously femboys aren't "dead", but they're not the same level of novelty that they were a few years ago.

This is going to be a very, very loose poll, and I know it won't cover every situation. I'm also sorry for making over generalizations! It's difficult to cover every situation. But feel free to let me know your own personal relationship with the term in reblogs and replies!

If these options are confusing, let me know! For example, I would choose "binary transfemme, stopped using the term when I realized I was trans"

Obviously if your experience doesn't cleanly fit in, I would like the best approximation! Eg, if there was a period of time where you used the term post transition, but gradually grew uncomfortable with it, you could choose the same option as me.

straight woman whose mtf partner is insisting she should identify as a lesbian & she spares no words describing the situation

Today in episode #72 985 of "men are men no matter what they identify as".

Where's that statistic again which shows that most men dgaf about their wives when they get sick?

I thought your drawing of the Obey me Characters where if they were all girls.

I got to Thirteen before I realized this was not in fact, a genderswap.

Bitches be like “This straight relationship is so queer coded!!!” And they literally just like each other and treat each other as equals.

Something I find stupid, is when Liberals hear a Republican say, "we need fathers back in the home" their knee-jerk reaction is to assume we're being misogynistic and saying single mothers can't properly raise children when that's not totally it. It's also for the benefit of the mother to have a father in the home. Have you ever tried to raise a baby singlehandedly? It's extremely hard and puts SO much strain on the mother. Without a husband to help, a mother takes on ALL responsibilities. No human was made to do that. And it can negatively impact a child. As a woman myself, I can say for certain that women are much more emotional than men on average. Because of this, mom's don't always react to things logical but emotionally instead. I'm speaking from experience ngl. Whenever my mom would do this, it was dad to the rescue. He was able to handle things logically and fairly because he was less emotional. But, ofc, mothers are essential as well. Because they are emotional, they have higher levels of empathy, which is necessary for child development. Both genders play a key role for raising children. We need to stop denying this truth. For the mother's sake, father's sake, and child's sake. This is reality.

I really love the concept of an Atsushi / Akutagawa / Kyouka trio as it was shown in Dead Apple, and I really wish it would become a thing. I think it's neat how here Kyouka's dominant color is shown being purple as balance / synthesis of blue and red. Kyouka also uses as this kind of bridge between organizations since she was a member of both at some point, and still holds a very deep understanding of how they work. I think Kyouka could really make the sskk team work as a way to find balance between these two opposites that would otherwise clash and destroy each other.
