Losing my shit about this article in which a transphobic Tory was so busy panicking about existing in the vicinity of a Trans that she almost certainly misheard "jeans" as "penis" and decided that not only was this a problem with the other woman, but also that the world must be informed of this pressing danger.
"a trans woman! I had to stand directly behind her....I thought, 'this is going well', I'm handling The Situation fine'..."
translated: I saw a tall woman with broad shoulders. How would I get out of this alive? I thought. she has a PENIS. PENIS PENIS PENIS. through some force of PENIS I mean will I managed to PENIS behave normally towards her. My hands were PENIS PENIS PENIS shaking as I tried to dry them. summoning up all my PENIS courage I said 'dryer's crap innit'. she turned to me and said " yeah I'm just goiPENIS PENIS PENIS"
It's been a week and I'm still shaking. This proves trans women are the problem and I'm not weird. I'm fine. It's fine. If you think about it I'm the hero hePENIS!!!!!
very this
#red said#it's just. I'm obsessed.#everyone on Twitter is saying 'never happened' and i think they're wrong#this absolutely did happen and she's been obsessing over how vindicated it made her feel enough to WRITE AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT#because she MISHEARD SOMEONE IN A CASUAL CONVERSATION#i lay out my reasoning thusly: if you were INVENTING a scary trans woman in bathroom story out of nothing. why would it be this?#why would you go with 'we had a banal conversation until she said a sentence that makes no sense and that no human has ever uttered#but which does coincidentally sounds almost exactly like a mishearing of a very NORMAL thing to say in the circumstances#then she left and nothing else occurred'#if you were going to INVENT a story you would probably make it MAKE SENSE or SOUND THREATENING#i truly believe this is a very authentically told account of what she thinks happened#because who would. by means other than mishearing. think 'I'm going to wipe my hands on my penis' makes any sense at all.#a) 'I'm going to dry my hands on my genitals' says the presumably fully clothed woman#b) who then proceeds to leave without doing anything threatening#c) WHO SAYS PENIS THREATENINGLY? sorry it's writing out 'penis' repeatedly that made this jump out to me but like. who says that?#you might hear someone talk casually about their dick or cock but i stg it's only doctors and TERFs who casually use the word penis much#it's so. clinically descriptive. it's a weird use of language. but it IS. something you could plausibly mishear from 'pants' or 'trousers'

The Ryoko Kui interview's reception is such a disaster over a pretty normal (yet still flawed) interview between a non-Japanese fan and Japanese artistic. This is discourse for discourse's sake, and it's no surprise that almost every Twitter user I've looked at who's using this interview to parade Kui around as a goated mangaka standing strong against Western ideology is anti-trans.
Like, I do think the interview was kinda wonky with its focus on fandom culture, which Kui clearly didn't have much interest in. But sometimes that happens. Sometimes interactions between two people, especially a fan and a creator, two people who view and interact with a piece of media in completely opposite perspectives, don't click. Does this really need to get blown up into a "West vs. East culture war" issue.
Anyways, Kui saying "I don't consider my audience's interpretations when writing. I leave it to their imaginations, but I have my own read on things too" is the healthiest, most normal thing an artist/writer who wants a non-parasocial audience could say. Artists and writers use this line all the time. If Kui didn't enjoy autistic Laius or Farcille headcanons, she would have probably voiced/signalled her discomfort, like she did on the topic of Senshi fanservice. Overall, Kui handled the interview really well. Props to her to sticking to her guns and keeping a healthy disconnect from the fandom. While I think the interviewer could've/should've been more tactful and restrained, the flaws in their questions is not a symptom of the woke mind virus trying to wriggle its way into the pure Japanese psyche. It's the sign of an over-eager fan who sees a piece of fiction differently than its creator.
#personal#delete later#this isn't even worth talking about in depth#but it's crazy that we're rehashing the “artist intent vs fan interpretation” crap again.#read stuart hall's encoding/decoding.#is it so terrible that laius reads to nd people as autistic even though the writer wasn't thinking about it#is that really something to criticize#also you may think the last sentence is me exaggerating but that's literally what the twt discourse is about#anyways i feel bad for the interviewer who's getting harassed over this#i'm seeing every side of discourse be super uncharitable toward them because it's funnier to make them sound outta touch and confrontationa#like. i'm seeing posts from cool people making the interviewer look like they asked “why did you make laius autistic??”#when the actual text of the interview goes “a lot of nd people interpreted laius as autistic. did you have that in mind when writing him?”#and obviously i think a lot of fandom people upset about this are weird too. joking that kui. a real person. is probably autistic is weird#but who am i more willing to criticize. the overeager parasocial fans taking things a too far and making things kinda weird#or the “kill the woke mind virus” weeabo/otaku terfs who still use the r-slur against queer/nd teen anime fans

I can't wait for you to peak and realize transactivism hates you no matter what and you'll always be a terf in their eyes bc you don't completely accept female oppression
Why would I abandon all of my friends and family and community and deeply held principles to become a fascist weirdo whose policy goals around gender essentialism align 1:1 with the Republican Party because one person was mean to me online one time? I’m not a loser.
#repugnant and pathetic sounds like a terf to me!#you people were calling me slurs yesterday for using she they. deeply unpleasant evil ideology#the state of my fucking inbox rn. TERFs don’t realize that *I* hate them no matter what

what do you mean youre technically a detransitioner cause of terf bullshit?
it's a v long story but i detransitioned for a couple of years when i was 16/17, for multiple reasons but mostly because i fell into the blaire white/kalvin garrah chamber of "you have to be This way to be trans otherwise you're not real".
i was already Deeply insecure about myself and my 'passing' and i was led to believe that i couldn't want to wear makeup or skirts, and i couldn't choose not to have bottom surgery, and i couldn't do anything but bind for 12+ hours a day to the point that my ribcage is still misshapen. basically i thought that if i wasn't suffering enough doing 'feminine' things, i couldn't really be trans, so i should just go back to being a girl and suck it up.
the terf bullshit is because i'd seen a lot of terfs/detransitioners talking about the 'dangers' of testosterone and how it would turn me into a horrible ugly evil monster and how there was nothing worse than wanting to be a man. which combined with 'you need to fully medically transition to be valid at all' creates some very dangerous and upsetting feelings to cope with.
it also came from trying really hard to put myself in a little box before i realised that my sexuality/gender are very fluid and it's FINE for me not to have a label and just do whatever i want. when i was 19 or so i went back to using they/them (and eventually he/him) and changed my name again because even though i like doing 'feminine' things, i don't want to be seen as a woman.
tldr: i was conditioned by transphobic/terf rhetorics to think that i was being trans the 'wrong' way so i couldn't be trans at all, so i believed i must actually be a girl if i still wanted to do 'feminine' things. nowadays i am a transmasc who does feminine things because i don't give two shits about what any transmed prick thinks of me anymore.
#ramble#ok to reblog btw i'm fine with this being shared#this was meant to be a short version but this is just the whole story whoops#sorry i realised the way i phrased it sounded like i'm the detrans you see in the news#i'm Technically a detransitioner because a lot of detrans stats are people who go on to RETRANSITION#because detransition is often because of social stigma and not because you realised you weren't trans#so anyway. terfs are cancer and if you don't think their bs is harming children you're wrong#i know it's easy to say 'you should've used your brain and realised those people were wrong'#but like. when you're 16 you're SO impressionable. even if you think you aren't#especially when you're watching people who have been transitioning longer than you and you assume they know everything#i was in my mid-late teens when 'transtrender' videos were MASSIVE and i believed it!!! and i was Not nice about those people#all they made me believe was that being trans couldn't be colourful and comfy and fun. it just had to be Pain#i hope everyone who contributed to the 'you need to be this way to be trans' mindset knows how much hurt they've caused#nowadays i don't care. go and be stargender. we have actual problems to deal with not debates about neopronouns#anyway this was long. that's the story

NGL, the fact that queer Tumblr's and queer Twitter's hatred of twinks is barely distinguishable from cishet men's hatred of queer femme men is... funny... in a nastily ironic way.
#lgbt#lgbtq#lgbtqia#gay#lesbian#I guess my patience for the anti-twink and anti-femboy brainrot has officiallt worn thin because#besides my preference for pretty men#I had more than my fill of rabid terfs hounding trans women and it's like#congrats y'all you sound exactly like terfs and log cabin republicans#I can guess that it would not take much for you guys to switch to the#lgb without the tq crowd#if most of you aren't there already#can you guys handle your insecurities and body image issues without trying to hound folks who happen to be thinner and more femme?#can you guys not be aggressively stupid?#like do you guys know how deranged you sound going “twink death twink death twink death! yay now you don't look beautiful and young and now#you're ugly and unwanted!“ you sound like you're cheering on the downfall of a former popular high school prom queen which like#you never gotten over being bullied in high school? you didn’t work that out with a therapist? you're pushing thirty fam stop trying to#appeal to the cishets

I’m seeing a lot of valid criticism of white women in the us saying they’re going to join the 4B movement in response to trump being elected on tiktok,,,
BUT at the same time as an aroace woman I AM just cheering from the sidelines like “YES GORGEOUS GIRLS RAISE YOUR STANDARDS. DO NOT SLEEP WITH OR DATE MEN WHO DONT SUPPORT YOUR ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE. DO NOT SLEEP WITH OR DATE MEN THAT FUNDAMENTALLY DISAGREE WITH YOU ON BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS”
#terfs can fuck off#like I know because of my sexuality (and aversion to dating men) that I can view things from a much more analytical standpoint but COME ON#you deserve a partner that sees you as a human being. that is the bare fucking minimum#and I know 4B is all men not just men who oppress your rights but if your reason for joining 4B is to punish men who want to oppress you…#that doesn’t really sound like your goal is to not engage with any men romantically or sexually

i am glad drake is being called out and i’m glad kendrick is doing exactly that but i can’t help but notice that men are only quick to label other men they hate as predators and not their very own friends.
its a valid way to feel but when trying to analyze peoples actions possible political results i find its better off to try to lock away ones own feelings about the entire system. its unfair.
like ive seen many people upset along the lines of "so kendricks just coming out with these serious allegations just cuz theyre beefing. men only care about womens violence to dunk on other men" and while thats a valid way to feel about the culture, about the general, the majority, about men, cuz we literally see this happen around us, etc etc we literally cant apply it to individuals baselessly.
i have 0 idea what the circumstances were and what kendrick was thinking through this whole thing, WHAT I DO KNOW is that its literally historic someone with this kind of platform is so ruthlessly coming after someone else from the industry with very clearly stated accusations. its so ugly but in Hollywood, you have actors and directors revealed as sex offenders or in lawsuits of sexual violence OR EVEN COMPLETELY OFF THE GRID unacceptable behavior and no one breathes out a word on it. its tradition directors take advantage of women to give them roles. tradtion to write naked scenes for women they want naked. but everyones tail is caught in everyones mouth, so people whose brands are wholesome or "progressive" stay silent to stay employed. its all very hushed.
ive never seen a man this popular and widely respected openly call another man a misogynist. like i said before, its not that Kendrick Lamar is some Feminist Scholar King, its that the action, the angle is surprisingly pro-woman. in times feminist sentiment gets so much backlash and is so unpopular with general audiences i was pleasantly surprised by the way he spoke of women. thats it.
#mypost#kendrick lamar#drake#k.#like i HAVE to approach peoples behaviors with as much neutral grace as i can because...#i find when one let their anger about ''men'' ''patriarchy'' ''misogyny'' seep into judging any individiual man they sound like a terf...#cuz im so mad and so hurt and need everyone to ACTUALLY Be feminist scholars and ACT in womens sake#that i lose grasp of the common person. that we all grow up In A Society. with sexist coding. that it takrs so long to unlearn#thats if you are even somehow driven to do so by circumstances partially out of your control#so yeah. sadly if i judge men on having read at least one 1 single feminist book and understood it.....and i killed those who didnt?#id have to kill all men i know#so yeah! lets take our small dub. kendrick lamar killed that predator lol

I’ve seen whispers of various accusations, but I’ve just found out from their latest post dump that prismatic bell is a genuine violent Zionist. So I decided to do a bit more digging and it literally took me like 10 secs to find the receipts exposing ableism, racism, terf rhetoric, and other hateful behavior.
I honestly used to reblog a lot bc I feel like when they do make a good point (even broken clocks ig… or they do a really good job masking their bigotry as progressivism and sometimes that results in a few genuinely progressive stances) they’re very well articulated, but a lot of the (extremely well founded) accusations are also for spreading misinformation so I’m not trusting shit anymore. If it is something I know for a fact they’re right about I’ll just do the work to articulate it myself
Anyway I know Im like the last person to know about this but sorry to anyone who knew and was subjected to them because of me and here’s a formal warning to anyone who still wasn’t aware of who they really are
#bigotry veiled in leftist buzzer words is becoming such a huge concern now#and the fact that most of their posts were valid and convincing makes it seem like a radicalization pipeline situation#they come off as compassionate and if you don’t know enough about the issues they make it sound like they’re on the reasonable side#prismatic bell#zionists#TERFs#ableism#racism#warning#call out post#I guess#not really it’s more of an apology and warning

Reductress is just spreading terf rhetoric now
The "joke" is that nonbinary people are somehow escaping from violence by being trans that we can opt out of fearing violence and don't fear violence when walking at night....
Like just yuck as a transmasc nonbinary survivor whose actually aware of the stats of violence against nonbinary people this just disgusts me...
Also I'm betting they have talked to zero Black trans enbies or men or women of colour about how being seen as "scary" puts them in danger from racist white people & or they're just assuming all enbies are white idk it's disgusting... There's just so many layers to the bigotry and white fauxminism of this "joke"
They've previously made posts like this so idk if they've got terfs on staff who keep trying to slip this in to pipeline people or people who think certain trans people they dislike facing violence including sexual violence is funny and that those trans survivors are lying and shouldn't be beleived.
They're priming their audience to disbelieve and mock nonbinary trans survivors. They're literally pushing the "people transition to escape/opt out of patriarchal violence like a fun game" terf talking point which isn't reflected in the stats of violence against trans people who face higher rates of physical sexual and domestic violence than cis people
Just "it's a coin toss!"
As a survivor fuck you
Like the comments section is full of transphobia and people going "har har they think they're in danger they're delusional " or spouting transphobic BS and a trans man whose talking about how he fears violence walking at night being called 'female' and misgendered like well done you've curated a comment section full of transphobes and people who think trans people aren't who we say we are fucking yikes
None of the transphobic comments have been deleted reductress seems happy to leave up comments calling trans men "female" and saying that trans people are a danger to children
#Reductress#Exorsexism#Rape culture#transandrophobia#Terf rhetoric#Erasing tpoc#When your “joke” is “haha enbies don't face violence people think you're men and trans men don't face violence” in current year just wtaf#Did a nonbinary person reject one of the writers or something there seems to be this persistent creepy obsession with mocking and belittlin#It really sounds like the “all my exgfs are crazy” shit but projected onto enbies like who hurt you and why are you hurting survivors?#Like they already tried a similarly transphobic joke and it went over just as badly then why do they keep trying to push this maga shit#Enbyphobia#Anti-Transmasculinity#This is what violent transphobes who harass assault & kill us WANT you to think when we try to talk about fearing for our safety#Why are you perpetuating this transphobic nonsense#Also I wonder if the stock model whose image they used knows its being used to mock&erase trans survivors

#it makes me feel othered by an otherwise inclusive community bc how dare i think that men aren't involved in lesbianism#or how dare i think that bisexuality is a whole and valid sexuality#or how dare i think that any and all nonbinary genders are included in every single sexuality by default#or that trans women are women so no fuckin g duh theyre included in lesbianism and if your knee jerk reaction to seeing:#men cannot be lesbians is to think of trans women then you are the transphobe here#or how i dare think that trans man and transmasc aren't the exact same thing#that genderqueerdyke person is also a transadrophobia geek and theyre buddies with genderkoolaid#which like. do i HAVE to say it?#IF U IGNORE THE TRANSMISOGYNY (WHICH U SHOUDLNT) THEYRE ALSO A ZIONIST HELLOW?? WHATS NOT CLICKING WHATS NOT CLICKING#OK IM KINDA MAD ABT THAT LIKE... SORRY BUT HOW ABOUT WE DONT PLATFORM IDIOTS NO MATTER HOW GOOD THEIR RHETORIC MIGHT SOUND#BC U WANT TO BE TOTALLY INCLUSIVE AND NOT GATEKEEPY#ive BEEN around the fucking block ive BEEN on tumblr when the resident terfs here coined bi lesbian#if you scrolled back far enough in certain keywords you wouldve seen that shit in the early 2010s being discussed in their circles#to mean lesbians who are attracted to trans women#you cannot reclaim that or recoin it#yes ive done the research too#i looked at every single piece of evidence of that label existing in the past 50~ years#its just bisexual women back when lesbian spaces also included them#plus like may i also fucking ssay that bisexual also used to mean being of two sexes (transsexual/gender and/or intersex?)#this close to fully believing that the pushback against bisexual being it's own whole and valid sexuality is some kind of psy op#i sound schizophrenic well Maybe I Am#i feel like im going to end up deleting this post bc i dont want to argue with people who disagree with me because there is no getting#through to any of you#tbd.

Hey everyone! In light of the UK's puberty blocker ban I'm dropping back in to share the advice of my relative who works in parliament: email your local MP and tell them you will not vote for them in the next election if this doesn't change. even better, get your parents or other older people in your community to do it - labour has shown again and again that those are the votes they most want.
TERFs are a small but very vocal minority who have given many MPs the impression of a much larger voting base than they actually represent. The best thing you can do right now is convince your MP that this will lose them more votes than it will gain.
you can find contact details for your local MP here (x) and it will only take five minutes to email them! There are email templates floating around that you can use for inspiration, but please personalise it in your own words or they're likely to be treated as spam.
#also terfs are generally not actually well-liked by MPs bc they tend to be like#general conspiracy theory crazies#so be incredibly respectful and moderate sounding and just be like#im very concerned about the precedent this sets for ideological meddling in healthcare#you can even be like I'm worried this will cause people to rush into transition#make it personal and emphasise yourself as a local person#some MPs are committed to a particular side but the majority basically have no idea and go after#(charitable version) what they think their constituents want (uncharitable version) what they think will get them votes

just coming in to say i appreciate you for coming back at anti-drag feminazis (terfs) -- as a drag artist it does the heart good to see someone who actually has a brain, i hope youre having a good evening
of course. drag artists are not privileged oppressors and enemies to women, but terfs really wish you were... terfs have absolutely idiotic takes about most things.
some of their beliefs are that anal sex is degrading, men are evil sex perverts and that's why AIDS spread, masculinity is ugly, drag is "womanface" - with all this combined, you just get run-of-the-mill homophobia. terfs are homophobic, no way around it. idk why they've done it, and for who's benefit (privileged white christian women who aren't promiscious, most likely), but they have invented conservative feminism.
#homophobia#not to mention they're insistent on defining and labeling gay men in general#only gold star gay men are REAL gay men to them#had kids? married a woman? came out later in life? you like trans men? sorry but these women have decided youre not gay actually :/#also they're against any changes that would outlaw conversion therapy... idk all of this sounds uhh conservative not radical...#conservative feminism#terf homophobia#keep making art anon. we should be at the club together.#gay#gay rights#terf critical#terfs
