#those are places for cis people to pat themselves on the back lmao
i will articulate this better some day but online trans spaces genuinely suck shit in their current form and i desperately want something built around being our own culture and saying “fuck the norm” instead of desperately attempting assimilation. i’ve never felt like there’s a genuine subculture for trans people and it sucks. everything has to be palatable to the normative tongue. fuck that.
also says a lot about who cis people are willing to platform and give attention to that most prominent figures in online trans spaces are also sex workers (this is not hate towards those people at all, i fully support sex workers and i’m genuinely glad they’re successful in their work, this is specifically directed at the why of why cis people flock to these specific figures).

cis people on this site just insist on making jokes of themselves repeatedly
like sorry u have to endure a few jokes at ur expense in the one of the only places you dont get pats on the back for being cis and not trans “mutant freak” lmao
thats the exact reason i pretend to be a cis woman and be stealth in the real world because you all dont take me seriously out there otherwise. calling a trans woman he doesn’t constitute taking them seriously. if we’re getting murdered (vast majority of those murders go unsolved) and shunned out there, u can handle a few lil jokes or complaints in tumnlr world lmao. grow up, honestly
