James Somerton is a misogynist piece of shit, but the way he speaks about lesbians is an infuriating betrayal of the queer community.
Legally, lesbians were and are treated on the same level of bad as gay men. Gay panic doesn't and has never excluded them, same as convertion therapy, same as anti-sodomy laws, same as police brutality, and many more I could mention.
And socially? Women as a whole are already persecuted, so add homophobia to the mix, and I doubt that'd lead to less discrimination than what gay men suffer from. And that's not even getting into how shittily trans lesbians are treated
But frankly, we all know why he said that. The section where he misgenders Nate Stevenson and Rebecca Sugar and throws them under the bus really says it all: it's because, in his fucked up mind twisted by misogyny, there was more "lesbian representation" in media.
The kind of representation where they're demonized, dehumanized, and erased, where their deaths and hardships are treated shallowly and without a hundredth of the compassion spared for their straight leads, where they're fetishized and objectified for the sole eyes of straight men, sometimes all of the above at the same time.
Fuck this guy.

it's so funny (read: sad) that if bigoted fuckheads didn't insist i was a woman simply by virtue of my body at birth, i'd probably be chill with she/her pronouns in addition to he/they. if my mom didn't insist i was her daughter, i'd probably let her call me that, and we could still have a relationship.
i'm nonbinary and 'gendered' words are hypothetically meaningless, but because there are so many people who are more interested in telling me who i am rather than lovingly and curiously letting me express my own sense of self, those words carry trauma.
there's no reason a nonbinary person like myself can't be a son and a child and a daughter. there's no reason a nonbinary person like me can't go by he, they, and she.
'she' is not a slur. 'daughter' is not derogatory. 'beautiful' 'pretty' 'gorgeous' 'feminine' are not insults.
to the contrary, they're parts of language that express certain facets of a multi-faceted human existence, like mine.
and i have this sad, mournful feeling that if it weren't for unloving, condescending people, i'd probably be down to be called any of those things alongside my usual masculine/neutral terminology.
but i'd rather die than let anyone tell me what i have to be called.
#i try to reclaim 'feminine' words for myself in private#calling myself 'babygirl' when i need to chill out. or saying i feel pretty. or going 'she needs help' when i'm struggling lmao.#but there's still so much fucking trauma in those words from the people who've forced them on me#who've snarled in my face that GOD made me ONE THING and ONE THING ONLY and that's a WOMAN (stepdad)#who've guilted me for taking their precious perfect daughter away as if i'm fucking dead (mother)#who've mocked me and everyone like me as if we're not the experts on our own sense of self (general transphobic public)#like. i'm not a fucking man. i'm not a fucking woman. i'm nonbinary. gender is absurdity as a concept. i'm done with it.#but being called a man or a son or a guy or 'he' or WHATEVER in that vein is fine and dandy because i've never had anyone say#'that is all you can EVER be'. or worse: 'that is what GOD made you to be and you have a ROLE to fill'#(christianity pls die approximately yesterday thanku 💖)#so yeah. idk. ranting yet again about Cis Audacity.#the complete lack of empathy. the lack of curiosity even.#the condescending bullshit. the 'i understand you better than you do'. the fucking AUDACITY.#i am the expert on myself. i am the ONLY expert on myself. period. no contest. not a debate.#i understand myself better than anyone else is CAPABLE of understanding me.#i could call myself 'she' and understand that i meant it in a nonbinary way.#in fact i could even see myself letting other trans people call me feminine terms at some point in the future. when i've healed more.#but cis people? probably not. they can call me 'he' or 'they' or they can fuck off & never get to know me because they don't wanna know ME#/end rant#any terfs/bigots that try to touch this post will be swiftly blocked and quite possibly cursed. have the day you deserve <3

I knew I was bisexual before I knew I was trans.
For some reason, a lot of cishet people ask me if my transition changed anything about my sexuality and I usually tell them no; I was bi before, I'm still bi after.
But after talking with other queer people, I realized that it did change something. When I was a "bi girl", I was attracted to women in a queer way, but my attraction to men was still perceived and treated, even by me, in a straight way. I knew that by being bi, even straight-massing relationships were queer because I was queer, openly and proudly, yet the heteronormativity still played a huge part in my relationship with men.
Now that I'm trans, people expect me to be attracted to men in a queer way, and women in a straight way.
Except that now I'm attracted to men and women in a queer way. My coming out as trans finally made me internalize that no matter what kind of relationship I was in, I was still queer, so my relationship was too.
Also people who ask me that question conveniently forget that I was attracted mostly to non-binary people this whole time, like the good little queer I am.
So yeah, I'm attracted to everyone in a gay way <3

I've got a personal situation going on that I want to eventually talk about here, but in summary transphobes and fundamentalist christians hate women and can suck my spiritual dick about it

Girlie, I can almost guarantee I’ve been out longer than you’ve been alive. Lesbianism doesn’t include males or “amabs”. Never has. Everyone with common sense recognized that until like…five-ish years ago.
I hope you do realize that when you advocate for violence against people who go against the most common opinion, you’re setting yourself up. The moment you accidentally step out of line, you’re going to be attacked by an internet hate mob no matter how much you apologize and grovel. Good luck 💕
Just say you hate transgender AMAB people lmfaoo
The only internet hate mob that's going to "attack me" are the terfs. They will be laughed at and subsequently shamed off of my posts publicly for everyone to see. You're not safe here. Hey btw I think you should switch off the anon, I just wanna see who gets dogpiled faster 💞

happy pride to everyone except those who still get their panties in a twist over the word queer. happy pride specifically to those who understand the words gay and lesbian and dyke and fag have always been slurs used against our communities. happy pride specifically to those who understand we can decide not to reclaim words without putting down others who do. we’re here and we’ve always been queer. as in, fuck you.

They better not make people like me fund the submarine bullshit. If those billionaires can pay $250,000 USD to go die then I'm sure they have plenty left for the recovery of the wreck.

seeing the take "exhibiting x behaviors or ideas can be a sign that the person you're dealing with is a terf" and interpreting it as "everyone who does x is secretly a terf" is um. kind of weird
