i get that the barbie movie didn’t show a lot of gender nonconformity or diversity with its characters outside of weird barbie and allan but the emphasis on barbies and kens not having gendered sex organs means that all of these very traditionally presenting men and women still don’t meet the terf criteria to be a man or woman because it’s an oversimplistic and reductionary way to define gender

#barbie #barbie movie #barbenheimer #weird barbie #allan #anti-terf #barbie is woman because that's how she chooses to socially present herself #not because she's a woman biologically #because technically she isn't! #the barbie movie really said you can be whatever you want to be #it handles a lot of topics well but one movie can also only be about so many things

friendly reminder that bigender people who identify as a masculine and feminine gender are allowed to feel monosexual / monoromantic attraction and label it. and they have always. always been who you’ve been talking about when you say men can’t be lesbians. gender fuckery shouldn’t get in the way of the language people use when they experience attraction to one gender. you can be a guy and a girl and identify as a lesbian if that’s the language that feels right. you can also be a guy and a girl and identify as a gay man if that’s the language that feels right.

Idk what radfem needs to hear this but calling a vagina a "disgusting stinky bleeding open axe-wound" is something misogynistic men have been doing since like the middle ages and it doesn't suddenly become #feminist when you use it to refer to a trans woman's genitals

A PSA

Okay I normally don't make posts about TERFs like these because I prefer to reblog them from trans people who know more about this stuff then I do but I just gotta say this, and if I'm being for fucking real I can't believe this even has to be said:

Stop posting screenshots of TERF posts and saying "op was a terf so I'm stealing this post! 🤪"

Seriously, stop it. You're not doing anything good by taking TERF talking points and reposting them to your blog. All you're doing is allowing TERF rhetoric to continue to spread and sanitizing it so that people become desensitized to it and don't recognize actual TERF rhetoric when they see it.

When you screenshot a TERF post and say "op was a TERF" all you are doing is validating TERF points whether you agree with them or not. Because every post a TERF makes, even if it seems benign, is connected to their rotten, transmisogynist ideology. You cannot divorce TERF statements from their true intentions. I think a lot of TMEs on this site really underestimate the fact that TERF is a harmful hate movement. Every statement a TERF makes, even if it seems harmless or actually feminist, is ultimately going to be tarnished by the fact that they are made with the intention of targeting trans women and wanting them dead. If a post is about how men are awful or are "raised" to be a certain way and is made by a TERF, then congratulations, you just found transmisogynistic rhetoric that is actually about trans women and their apparent "male socialization". If a post is about how lesbians should be allowed to not like men and how men are forcing themselves onto lesbians, but a TERF made it, then it's not actually a lesbian-friendly post. It is a transphobic post about how transfem lesbians apparently "prey" on cis lesbians(which they also think straight trans men are, let's make that very clear) by merely existing. Same for any post about the word queer or the beauty industry or periods or anything of the like. Even if they don't explicitly say it, TERFs are inherently lumping trans women in with(cishet) men and trans men in with women/lesbians and THAT is the true meaning of the post. You're not making it any better by reposting it from them.

TERFs know exactly how to make their posts seemingly benign and genuinely positive on the surface so that people get sucked in to thinking that they are truly for the feminist cause and actually have good points to make. But all of it ultimately serves the purpose of continuing transmisogyny, and when you post screenshots of their posts and go "I really wanted to reblog this post but op was a terf so I'm stealing it! 😇" all you are doing is giving terfs a platform and saying that we should listen to them. You're exposing trans women to beliefs and opinions of people who ultimately wish to harm them and do NOT have the same innocent intentions that you believe they have from looking at the post at first glance. You are not helping women. You are not helping feminism. You're internalizing TERF rhetoric, and you're allowing other people to internalize it, too.

It's one thing if you don't realize a post was made by a TERF before you reblog it, and then you delete it afterwards. But if you know someone is a TERF and intentionally repost their vile, sickening rhetoric wrapped up in pink feminist bows and go "I like the message of this post but op is a terf so 🤷🏾‍♀️" then you may as well be reblogging it directly from them, because you're still agreeing with TERFs at the end of the day.

What can you do instead? You can reblog feminist posts from amazing and intellectual trans women who actually are genuine about the cause and actually know what they're saying. They have way better views on feminism and misogyny and lesbophobia and the patriarchy then a radfem who thinks woman=vagina and man=penis ever will, trust me. Uplift their voices instead of stealing from conservative hate groups. It really is that simple.

But remember guys, this is only about women's rights and if you disagree with this Concerned Apolitical Women's Right Advocate™ you are big lesbophobic, support omnipresent rapists in bathrooms and also don't believe in the rights for women.

Okay, so one of the reasons you can’t seperate TERF ideology from ableism is because one of the basis’ of their ideology is that bodily autonomy should be restricted from people based on their mental status.

And obviously, we know enough about transness to state it isn’t a mental disorder but I need more people to realize that even if it was a mental disorder, that wouldn’t be a reason to deny trans people community, dignity or resources that have been proven repeatedly and decisively to improve their quality of life. 

Transphobia and ableism, especially when we’re talking about TERF ideology, are so closely bound together you can’t fully separate the two. You want to counter transphobia, you’re going to have to deal with ableism as well and far too many of you are shying away, either because you simply don’t know how to fight ableism or because ableism isn’t actually an issue you care about. Either way, you lose. 

TERFs don’t care about our mental health and never have but we have to fight the ableism in their attacks as well, not just because it’s one of the roots of their ideology but also because ableism is running rampant and needs to be addressed as well. Even ignoring the heavy overlaps between the trans community and disabled community, they’re our comrades and we have to stick up for each other. 

So either stop dodging the issue and speak the hell up or boost the people who are.

I am so proud of where our country is headed, despite the efforts of the terfs & fascists. Kia kaha & much aroha to our lgbtqai+ community.

All I have to say to TERFs who are bitching and moaning about trans men being forced to compete with cis women because they lobbied so hard against letting trans athletes compete with other people of the same gender is this;

Congratulations, you're angry about a problem that is quite literally your fault. You reap what you sow.

I’d rather share a bathroom with a trans woman than a TERF. Trans women are less obsessed with my genitalia.

Not to go on and on about JKR but if anyone here still doubted the veracity of the "queer is a slur" to terf to white supremacist pipeline here's all the proof you should fucking need. (I mean it's really an "ace/aro people aren't oppressed" to "nonbinary people aren't trans" to "no kink at pride" to "queer is a slur" to radfem/terf to white supremacist pipeline but still.)

#anyway yeah this is why I just straight up block 'queer is a slur' types #you are legit peddling terf-lite talking points and I don't have time for that #don't trust anyone who is trying to pit us against each other #cw transphobia #cw jk rowling #cw racism #ask to tag #anti-terf

Why the fuck did a bunch of TERF/radfems follow my blog and start reblogging my medical misogyny post? I'm literally transgender. You can all go fucking die in a fire. If you don't think trans people are valid and should be allowed to do whatever they fuck they want with their hormones, bodies, and legal gender, not to mention use whatever fucking bathroom they want, or if you think being male or having a penis makes someone inherently dangerous or violent or aggressive, or if you think you're in any way entitled to know what other people's genitals look like, or any other even remotely terfy bullshit, GET THE FUCK OFF MY BLOG, YOU HORRID FASCIST FUCKS.

I can’t get over how badly written Harry Potter as a character was. Like I could go into an essay about how his upbringing should have effected him in far more complex ways than was written about, or how he experienced no proper character development because he went into the story the same way as he left the story etc etc but my main thing rn is just the fact that... this kid was literally abused and manipulated by authority figures at every turn of his life and he grew up?? Conforming to those authority figures?? He just became an auror and entered society as a perfectly well-adjusted, conformist, law-abiding citizen?? That sucks so fucking much and just doesn’t feel realistic at all. Harry could have been so much cooler had he not been written by a fucking terf conservative. He wasn’t rebellious at all, he was an average skinny white guy who would literally bully me if he got the chance.

In reality, Harry should have fucking REBELLED against the system. In my mind he’s a gnc stoner who sucks dick for money. My guy plays the drums and listens to fucking screamo music. He has tattoos on his top surgery scars. He makes out with guys at the bar. Everyone is wrong about him especially his own fucking author oh my GOD I can’t believe this bitch tried to pretend to us that she was progressive in any fucking way it’s actually so sad and hilarious. Okay ma’am I see you making Hermione Granger Minister for Magic to tick the Hollywood box of “women can be in power too!” It’s a shame your little feminist message is undermined by the fact that all your female characters are married and with children by the time they’re thirty.

Anyway I think this post got away from me. Point is. Harry is a trans man actually.

Just came across someone on Tumblr saying that they hoped a sapphic couple in a new book were "biological lesbians".

TERFs really are missing a few brain cells, huh.

friendly reminder not to follow me or reblog from me if you're a radfem blog. your ideology is toxic and I want nothing to do with you. get well soon.

radfem discourse (and other extreme/simplified radical discourse) infesting the internet did so much damage to modern conversation. the terf-y 'hierarchies of oppression' concept that holds that some people are more oppressed than others and you can get rankings or levels like it's some sort of global pvp contest.

what we've got now isn't that combatatitve on the surface but there's still this underlying principle that oppression is like a scoresheet you can tick off and add points up for to redeem on your carrd or whatever, rather a complex interweaving of factors of everything from race, sex, class, religion, upbringing, global location, etc etc.

#like god the people even having this conversation are so globally privileged it's unbelievable #doesn't mean their oppression and experiences don't exist though #it's not a competition and exclusionary discourse is all the same at the core and it's an infestation from our roots. from tumblr roots. #from lesbian activism roots. from feminism's roots. identify it and eliminate it. it's toxic af #queer discourse #feminist discourse #radfems do not interact #anti-terf #i was there gandalf and it was brutal. i remember burgeoning feminist discourse that was interwoven with radfem politics before trans issue #became so central #ducking terfs was like an actual problem. you don't really need shinigami eyes anymore because terfs are tbh kinda obvious now #but back then it just. was everywhere.
