If was specifically someone calling attention to "unrealistic" scars and calling them botched when they're large and stretched, so I don't think we're talking about the same thing. Even if someone is venting, you can't get away with calling people's scars ugly because you're upset.

I do think about quite often (unfortunately) a post I saw by another trans guy a while ago complaining about artists who draw big, bold top surgery scars (specifically calling them "botched") and it's such a weird and awful thing to say to ppl. I had my surgery in March, I'm healed now, but my scars are very much visible. They're dark. They're stretched. They go far back under my arms and around my sides. They probably look that way because I'm fat. And I love them! I love how my body looks, I love my scars. I fought hard to get this far. Maybe it's not always safe for my scars to be visible, but I want to see them, they're proof of what I've gone through and they're apart of me. They've grown and will grow with me. They're not botched. They're perfect. They're everything I could have ever dreamed of and have improved my life more than anything else ever could.

one of the funniest things you can do is vagueblog about a book you hated and what you specifically found objectionable and inevitably someone will be like “op you should read [the very book you’re complaining about], it handles this soooo well” no lad it does not

I think it would be cool to recognize that "patriarchy" doesn't refer to the idea that men generally oppress and hold power over women. I think it would be cool to recognize that "patriarchy" is one of several inter-connected means of consolidation of power, and it works by controlling the conditions of what traits of masculinity are good and acceptable, as a means of power over people in society at large, regardless of sex, gender, etc.

That is how come the same trait welcomed as positive in one person of some particular sex/gender/etc is often interpreted as negative in a person of the same sex/etc. Obvious example, too general but simplified for ease of understanding; assertive behavior in a white person is rewarded in the USA in part as a positive masculine trait, while assertive behavior in a black person is punished and treated as a negative racialized trait.

Nothing in a social hegemony exists in a vacuum. In the USA, continuing the example, patriarchy is one of many ways the social structure is reinforced in the population overall. It offers illusory rewards to anyone who is willing to buy into the concept of distinct social stratification and real boundaries between social groups. The ultimate purpose of hegemony in places like the USA and UK, and others with similar systemic oppression is to maintain the system of power consolidated in the hands of a few. It's definitions are arbitrary and derived from any current social trends sufficient to convince the population that they can benefit by excluding the "wrong people" or by keeping an isolated group of "right people."

I think most of us in one form of disenfranchised group or another only get anywhere if we don't treat our groups as isolated and we let our experiences and goals grow together. I don't think stratification is completely avoidable in large social groups, but it's supposed to be a means to an end, not an end in and of itself. I don't know this stuff very well though.
