sorry since realizing my gender i have zero tolerance for the whole “man hating” angle of being queer i hate i hate it i hate you. stop. you are hurting people.
#This is terf rhetoric#the phrase in and out of terf context is still a problem#the context of the phrase matters#when someone says “i hate men” in the context of power imbalances and oppression i think this makes sense#when “i hate all men” is taken into the queer space it alienates a lot of queer people#to take it a step further the phrase even alienates men (queer and cis and non cis men) from these discussions#to all my queer mens out there i do not actually hate you. i hate the people who have been wronging you and i. those people happen to be men#obviously my blog is anti-terf btw#trans men and all trans ppl welcome heheh hiiii#same goes for mogai and intersex and all queer ppl#i am nonbinary and amab so as someone who has heard “i hate men” all my life it did have a negative impact on me and often excluded me from#conversations about men and what men do or have done. it targeted me for being male#i was extremely lucky to have the queer people and women i did have in my childhood because i was not always excluded.#i dont want to exclude men and i acknowledge when i say “i hate men” it's exclusionary#i know there are plenty of men (cis and not cis) who have fallen to a radical view of gender because of this exclusion#start having those hard conversations about the things that bother you#it might not be the easiest thing to do and you might not find like minded people quickly#you might find yourself surrounded by people you cant get along with#it will be okay because there will be someone who can understand your view and be a friend to you#i was welcomed into queer and feminine spaces when i presented as male#i was lucky to have that experience#give another man a chance. it will be okay to cut someone out of your life if they suck

Don't you realize that male and female are social constructs? They're ideas. Scientists don't even believe biological sex is a thing anymore, we're all just people. Gender is almost like religion, it can change, some people are really sure on theirs and others aren't, forcing someone into one is always wrong. Do you know why you're cis? Do you ever think about the possibility that you're not, about what it would be like to be something other then what you were born as. Would you still feel like a woman if you didn't have a womb, if you didn't have breasts or genitals or estrogen? It was a combination of contemplating these things, and mystical experiences with the goddess Hel that got me to realize I was agender. I thought I would lose certain things when becoming nonbinary and genderless, but I didn't. I don't know about you, but know you can be happy as an enby or a boy, you can be loved, and cherished and comforted as an enby or as a boy. I don't know if you're nonbinary like I am. You might find you really do identify with womanhood, but if you do really want to be a woman, then know that that's the same feeling amab women have. I know what it's like to think the way you do, I used to think that way, and I've had bad experiences with men and with the expectations society has for people with bodies like mine. But you don't have to take your pain and call it womanhood.
hi, give me one article stating that science believes biological sex isn’t a thing anymore when your sex determines how you live, the diseases you are prone to (xx/xy-linked disorders, endometriosis, breast cancer, vaginal cancer, prostate cancer, certain mental illnesses, etc) the treatment you receive, how you are perceived, down to the money you earn. there are statistics of women earning significantly lower compared to men, women facing abuse significantly higher than men, and so on. in el salvador, a female gets killed every 24 hours, in bangladesh at least one woman is raped every 9 hours, in somalia girls suffer from the highest rates of FGM, which is completely only because they are females. families don’t have the same expectations and plans for their child when it’s a female, especially in countries where FGM, child marriage, and so on is high. because a woman is seen as the “honor” of the family, the one who has to stay pure no matter what. this is why so many women get forcefully married with their rapists and forced to carry their babies. to save the honor. however a man does not have this responsibility. these are all related to sex and the fact that you say sex isn’t a real thing is the MOST delusional thing i have ever heard in my life. gender is a social construct, a way to oppress women and have them live under the patriarchy. if they don’t fit they must either be a man or unwanted, unloved, ugly, etc. no one is forcing you into any gender because gender isn’t real, but a construct like you said. however biological sex is everyone’s reality and if you are an “anarchist” like you claim you are then you should know this. did you not read kropotkin? anything? which anarchist denies biological sex?
not only this but who are you to act like i’m secretly trans or something? can you PLEASE respond to this and tell me one thing that made you realize you weren’t a “woman” and have it be something else than a gender role? did you hate wearing dresses as a kid? did you want short hair? did you feel like you didn’t fit in with the other girls because you didn’t share the same experiences? did you play football and video games? were you loud and messy? what made you realize you weren’t actually a woman nor a man?
what makes a woman is her biology, not if she has long hair, not if she has a feminine face or dresses to wear, or if she puts on makeup. this is why it’s so freeing. because you don’t have to waste your time thinking of countless terms to further reinforce your “uniqueness” or “individuality” that’s pushing you to microlabels. you can simply exist in your body as a woman because you are a woman due to your sex, not due to the gender roles.
you are saying you had bad experiences with men and society’s standards. don’t you see that it’s that way with every women? when men constantly rape, abuse and kill women; is it ever easy to feel safe? in this case, it would make sense to reject womanhood and want to be something else because a woman is the one who faces the abuse, not someone else. since you are perceived as a woman, you face the violence a woman would. so by becoming “non-binary” you simply try to escape that painful reality.
i’m not going to go into the religious side of it because it’s your relationship with your deity. and simply i don’t care. but i do wish you heal your relationship with womanhood and understand you can be anything you are now simply being a woman, because it’s not a gender, it’s a reality
i want to add that you can be loved as a woman too. you are not alone as a woman
