"this character in iwtv isn't a victim-" but YES they ARE!!!

literally everyone in this entire series is victimized, at some point, by something! that's half the point! like whether it is a system or society or individual or circumstance!

your problem is just that you're conflating victimhood with innocence, with being morally right, with being the "good" one. and your problem there is that no one in this series is innocent

Would you trust this person to organize your funeral?

How about looking after your children?

Are you sure you want to hand over your inheritance to him?

Thinking about him (the soldier in Poynter’s Faithful Until Death painting watching an apocalypse unfold around him with horror in his eyes as he tries to keep himself standing beneath a doorway, based on an actual 19th century archeological find of a man in full soldier’s garb under a doorway at Pompeii)

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.

Transmascs are not the main driver of fetishizing trans women. The majority of chasers of trans women don’t even acknowledge that transmascs exist. Transmascs aren’t the major producers of fetish pornography, of sensationalizing media of trans women, of weird medicalizing categorization of trans women… and like, to be blunt, I’ve heard way, way more complaints from trans women about transmascs always dating each other in the “why are the good men always gay” sort of way.

Yeah I’m sure there are some transmascs who fetishize trans women but I know the post you’re talking about, I was nodding along with the first part about to reblog and then the second part just comes and smacks you in the face from left field. Literally of all the complaints I’ve heard of “what transmascs do to trans women” that is one I had NEVER heard of.

Man, I hate when trans people jump on the bandwagon to hate other trans people. Like, there’s this post that’s been going around criticizing the fetishization of trans women (which is 100% something we should talk about) but like, it aims the whole thing directly at transmascs. like hello??? yeah there definitely are some transmascs who fetishize trans women, but other people do too and I guarantee you transmascs are not the majority. Stop trying to make other trans people the scapegoat and put the blame where it belongs (on our inherently transphobic society).
