ya wrt that post abt the woman with the blackout tattoo. i’m only a radblr lurker but dear gawddd no wonder some ppl call us (them? you? idk) conservatives 😭😭😭 some women r straight up bullies and idk how tf tattoos are being compared to major cosmetic surgeries. it really is “women’s appearances don’t matter and they shouldn’t be judged on them” until it’s a woman they don’t like 💔 wth “blackout tattoos signal poor judgement” it’s just a tattoo it’s literally skin deep. anyways.

Lmfao ya I feel that. They're all trying to school this random from a different app about how her getting a silly tattoo sleeve as a young adult and then regretting it is the exact premise behind being transition critical as if medical transition isn't way more dangerous and life changing than a big tattoo. If actual transition was as surface level as getting tattoos, I wouldn't be gender critical and I definitely wouldn't have reidentified/desisted. Feels like a real "shooting your own foot" moment to compare two body mod practices that are not actually on the same scale of invasive and life changing.
