The audio drama "Invaders From Mars", written by Mark Gattis is just. definitely transmisogynistic -.-

nothing in it is important to the overall plot, so feel free to just fucking skip it. You aren't missing out on anything except bigotry.

edit: and ableist against both neurodivergent and physically disabled people. because of course.

Every day, I am reminded that the world sees trans women as subhuman, worthy of ridicule, deserving of harassment, cruelty, and violence.

It's not fair. I have seen my own parent, the one who birthed me physically, accosted for using a women's changing room because... why? They look androgynous? They aren't feminine enough?

Maybe it's the same reason people sometimes mistake me for a trans woman. Because I am ugly and like to wear dresses, and obviously, anyone unappealing in a dress must be some kind of heinous pervert, heaven forbid a person who doesn't meet narrow beauty standards is feminine in any way.

Even if I removed the collateral damage of transphobic sentiments, it would still be appalling. These women are my sisters. They are my friends, my confidants, my allies. I swap notes on video games and cat pictures with these women.

They're just people, good or bad or ugly. Like every other woman on the planet.

And I still wake up every day and watch them get dehumanised and trampled, dragged through humiliation and misery, treated like circus freaks for... being like me.

It's never fair, and it has never, not for one single moment, made me feel any bit safer in this world.

Re-reading Auramgold's "The Abuser's Guide to Transmisogyny" and oh boy does it have the pulse on how transmisogyny works, especially the kind common on this website.(as the title might tell you, It's a sarcastic guide to using callout culture to isolate and abuse transfems, so basically all the content warnings.)

I'm not talking about the more explicit kind from outright terfs or nazis, although that is of course bad. I'm talking about the more insidious kind, the kind who has "terfs/nazis dni" in their bio, and who is often (tme) trans themselves. The kind of transmisogynist who openly disavows transmisogyny, but has a growing roster of callout posts about supposed "pedos/freaks" who all happen to be transfems. Really you should read all of it, but like here are some choice selections, things I've seen being done to mutuals like right now.

"The main factor of going for a fast and hard strike is finding some Controversial point to grow a harassment mob around. Maybe your victim said something you can ship-of-Theseus into sounding racist, maybe she chose to associate with someone already considered "problematic", maybe she even just posted about some sort of kink or sexuality and you're gonna bend that into her being a rapist or a pedophile. The last approach works best of all of these, as society is always primed to see trans girls as pedophiles; the TERFs already did the work for you on that front. But even if any sexual allegations aren't your centerpiece seed, they can do wonders as an extra spice, a perfect excuse for "if you support my victim against me, you're supporting pedophilia" attacks."

"Many communities have self-ascribed "anti-pedophile crusaders," and these are a valuable resource considering how easy it is to make someone see a trans girl as a sex criminal. Recruit them by leaning into a narrative of how your victim "protects pedophiles in <community>," which works especially well in fandom spaces with the presence of their "anti" faction. If you construct a narrative of your victim puppeting the community from behind the scenes, you can lean right into the fascist playbook of portraying your vulnerable victim as the puppetmaster."

"Of course, you don't even need even a made-up "victim" to accuse your trans girl victim of sexual impropriety. If your victim is into any sexuality at all, she's likely to have some kink or another that is vaguely Controversial enough to accuse her on. Never mind that it's between consenting adults, if you frame it as thoughtcrime, if you frame it as sin, it's very difficult for your victim to actually defend against it. One particularly effective mode to attack with is any caregiver/little dynamics your victim might be into, as it is very easy to twist "your victim likes diapers" into "your victim likes fucking children" as a ship-of-Theseus argument. Targeting littleness works especially well because it is a kink that usually comes from parental abuse that manifests into fawn trauma, and you can take advantage of your victim's trauma making her try to appease anyone that hurts her to neutralize any ability she has to fight back.

While littleness is one of the best targets to base accusations of sexual abuse on, basically any kink can work well enough for that. If she draws CNC you can call her a "secret rapist," if she's into petplay you can call her a "zoophile", if she's into gore or sadomasochism you can claim she's physically abusive. Hell, you can get the antis on your side if she merely ships the wrong characters together or likes a "bad" character, as they're all too willing to join at the hint of anything like that they can attack someone for. Literally any kink or sexuality can be twisted into a slight against your victim, and this works very well for your attacks so that they may pull at the groundwork the fascists already set out for you."

HELLO TRANS PEOPLE. I HAVE A VERY SPECIFIC QUESTION.

(please elaborate in tags what u picked and why!! only if u want to of course)

#sorry but the more i think abt this movie the more upset i get. #like it was really really good but it stabbed me in the gut trans-wise #like jodie foster absolutely slayed but at what cost #but i was just curious because im nosy! and to see if anyone shared my reaction #also warning do not watch this without reading content warnings. like obviously gore and stuff but also. The Transphobia #particularly transmisogyny... it wasnt pretty I'll be real with you. it tried so hard to be tasteful but fell flat on its face after - #knocking over every glass vase and table and then falling through the wooden floor and breaking more things

[socialtomcat]

so was no one going to tell me that the bbc adapted aawil into an audio drama format with some of the original cast and added so many new scenes including jack waking up dead yelling david’s name, jack saying i love you to david, alex going “its clear you love jack very much”, david saying “he was my best friend… my very best friend” and jack WATCHING ALEX AND DAVID HAVE SEX AND SAYING HE COULDNT BEAR THE JEALOUSY???? i did not know this movie could get gayer im crying

#aawil #an american werewolf in london #lycanloaf #i havent finished it yet im pretty sure its longer than the movie #i am highly enjoying it though if anything else happens i will update #the dialogue is a little fast pace and some of it sounds clunky bc theyre trying to make stuff clear in an audio format #also david is characterised a little differently but idk if u could tell if ur not as insane about him as i am #but tbh all the gay shit is making up for it so idc #also its the bbc so they sprinkled a little transmisogyny in there just as a warning #mrrow

Kinda wild to experience so directly the tropes of transmisogynist ostracisation.

#Got kicked from a server run by a CAFAB friend #Said friend is like *passionate* about avoiding disposability culture and standing against transmisogyny #But when the chips were down none of that mattered I guess #Cos i got banned along with another trans woman - kicked with no warning #(justified by our both having said we weren't feeling safe in the server and we're going to leave if a recent incident wasn't resolved) #The only difference all that praxis made in the end #Was that I let my guard down #And that I was told off for ''lack of good faith'' for not accepting that something wasn't transmisogyny #Rather than being told I was aggressive.

Adult magical realism/autofiction about trans sex workers (called travesti in the book, the chosen term of the author) living in Córdoba, Argentina

Camila is a young trans woman who leaves her small town for the big city and falls in a group of trans sex workers overseen by their matriarch, Auntie Encarna

When Encarna finds an abandoned baby boy in a park and decides to adopt him as her son, the group is drawn together around him

Told more in a series of connecting stories following Camila and her community than a traditional throughline

Fantastical, gritty, tender, unflinching

#incredible and also gut-wrenching #i listened to the audiobook of this which i think was actually a good format for me #since it's structured a bit more meandering and i'd listen to it in half-hour chunks on my commute #god. the ending of this made me sad #i also did not realize this was autofiction OR magical realism going in so that was interesting #big content warnings for transmisogyny and rape/abuse #very heavy but also a worthwhile read #bad girls #camila sosa villada #2023 reads #lulu speaks #lulu reads #lulu reads bad girls #books

Trans men who tell trans women to shut the fuck up about transmisogyny and how ultra targeted they are as hyper visible members of the community, truly are the most pathetic little worms. You sacks of shit are precisely why I dont like associating myself with other trans men, especially not here and especially not white ones. You're just mra's and transmisogynists hiding behind your own marginalization as a shield, which is frankly, evil as fuck.

#honestly if i could knock your fucking teeth out through this screen i fucking would #literally EVERY post where a trans woman or even tme folks are pointing out transmisogyny in the community #there go one of these stupid fucks going THEYRE KILLING US AND YOURE TRYING TO START IN FIGHTING!? #legitimately boils my fucking blood #dont say shit like this when you were looking away when our sisters were warning us this was coming

it’s reminding me of an old post i’m not sure i could find again but like. it’s clear to me that essentially araki is writing what he believes trans women are. like. dragona isn’t supposed to be a gnc man, dragona is supposed to be a trans woman, but araki thinks of trans women as just being men who crossdress and get cosmetic surgery. that is the impression i get

#op #transmisogyny #by the way #i didn’t trigger tag anything on the other post bc if anyone has shit blacklisted they won’t see the warnings #so i would recommend if you reblog it do the same

get those stupid FUCKING buttons OUT OF MY NOTIFICATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!! I KNOW WHO MY MUTUALS ARE!!!!!!!! this stupid mobile app is barely functional can staff stop making it worse

#can't fix the bot problem can't add a flashing warning option can't stop the blatant transmisogyny can't quit with the awful ad campaigns #can't listen to their userbase and understand No One Wants Tumblr Live or the twitter-esque desktop interface #can! and will! clutter everything and make everything hard to see and overstimulating and stupid #i hate it i hate it i hate it #👎👎👎👎👎👎👎 #i was considering going ad free for a while but there's no fucking way i'm giving them money now #these recent changes have been Awful #anyway. rant over #i hate it here #staff u suck #addendum: i don't know how long this mobile update has been out. but i strongly dislike it. if that wasn't clear

the op of the Hannah Gluckstein post is a terf :pensive: shes red on shinigami eyes + has some real sketchy stuff on her blog. obv no judgment, just letting you know in case you wanted to block her. love ur art <3 <3

eurgh thanks for letting me know :/// I’m not gonna delete the reblog bc hannah gluckstein as a jewish butch artist is still something that speaks to me personally and I had never heard of her before but I will be blocking the op. fucking astounding that these people will understand gender-nonconformity of lesbianism and then turn around and fail to expand it beyond the end of their nose. goddamn.

#(ok sorry went on a rant in the tags so if you don’t want to read me losing my shit over transmisogyny here is your warning) #as an afab gnc lesbian myself I feel far far far more kinship to trans women than I ever felt to most cishet women and CERTAINLY to terfs #like. not to go off on a whole rant but it is genuinely so baffling to me #how can you read gender and sexuality studies and examine gender as the construct that it is and then come to the conclusion #that gender essentialism is the way to go?? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. #when I took gender studies it was so fucking clear to me that like. it’s all bullshit. there is no binary gender there is no binary sex #none of it is real. society wants it to be real SO BADLY that doctors perform genital surgery on intersex infants to assign them sex/gender #trans women were and are and always will be SO SO SO SO SO key to queer liberation and the queer rights movement #and they are The Most Fucking Vulnerable Group!!!! they deserve more goddamn respect and protection! #going back DECADES they’ve been shut out of gay/lesbian rights groups #it’s like. transfemmes and fem leaning gay men are met with such aggressive hatred #in ways more extreme than say a woman cutting her hair short ever is #bc society views feminity as something weak and shameful #which! fucking proves a lot of the points terfs THINK they’re trying to say which SHOULD expand to #‘oh hey maybe our rhetoric was seeded as a way to cause a rift in what SHOULD be rhe ubited front of intersectional feminism’ #‘and therefore we should work together and for and with trans women’ #but no they’re too blind to realize that their shit MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE!!!!! AAAAAA #anyways. fuck. sorry to go off I just scrolled through ops page to confirm and got Real Fucking Mad godfuckingdsmnit #I need to install shinigami eyes I just keep forgetting #thanks for telling me tho anon. ugh. #asks #anonanonanonanah

Is orv LGBT? And also where can I read it

kind of? there's a character who is rather explicitly a trans girl, but the english translator misgenders her for half her screentime, and there are also some really gross transmisogynistic stereotypes at play with some characters who appear earlier in the novel. it's clear the authors took the criticism of those transmisogynistic stereotypes to make a much better-handled transfem character, but it can be uncomfortable. the POV character also continually misgenders this character for a lot of the story. he is ridiculed for this by other characters, and it is part of a thematic throughline where he refuses to see other characters outside of the roles they played in the novel he's familiar with, but it can be frustrating to read. my girlfriend, who is transfem, was able to get through it and really liked the transfem character, but I would put that up as a general content warning.

in terms of other lgbt characters... yeah not really. it's one of the novel's biggest blind spots for me. the main character is in-universe "shipped" with his male rival and there's definitely some mild homophobia in the way he handles it. im glad the authors included an interesting transfem character, but it would have been really nice to have more explicit lgbt characters outside of her. it's frustrating.

all that being said, i would still really recommend it! it is a work with a lot of flaws, but it also has a lot of interesting things to say, and does cool things with its premise. it gave me a ton to think about for sure.

here's the translation I've been reading. if anyone has a link to a translation that fixes the misgendering issue, it would be appreciated lol

#transmisogyny #orv #my gf and i had a Lot of things to say about the novels depiction of transness #it is really good and interesting in some aspects and really flawed in others #so as I said i would recommend being aware of that as a content warning. it gets better but it can be rough
