straight trans people can call themselves gay

cis lgbp should quit using the word cis in cishet and cis aroace, even though by doing so, youβd implicitly be kicking out trans/nb people

trans people were added in later in the LGBT movement
straight trans people can call themselves gay, or how they canβt be straight
trans men can call themselves lesbians
us cis lgbp should quit using the word cis in cishet and cis aroace, implicitly kicking out trans/nb people, and also ignoring that straight trans people donβt oppress us cis lgbp

exclusionists pointing out how SAM can be used in transphobic way (but if someone can actually find someone using the SAM in a transphobic way, go ahead and add on)
pitting lg vs. bt, erasing trans/nb gay and lesbian people
uninucleus callout (who Iβve heard still kept kept their popularity after it came to light they were a TERF)
Also, thank you to @fuckradfems for double-checking these screenshots, @discoursepsychic for suggesting a screenshot
hey um, when I said a call-out post? i meant a call-out post and not this useless sack of crap i have to sift through. are you trying to be unhelpful?
as i have already plainly explained, we actually did have to fight for trans and bi recognition. this is basic, basic history, and notΒ βerasing trans people from the movementβ, itβs literally basically recognising that we have been already erased from the movement by cis people. for the love of fuck i canβt actually simplify this anymore. Trans people start movement. Gay movement decides it wants nothing to do with trans people. trans people fight this. the letter T is added so that doesnβt happen again. are we clear on this
the second screenshot actually goes into this in more detail than i can? thereβs literally nothing incorrect here? what are you even calling out here? that weβre acknowledging trans erasure? do you want to call out someone for a goddamn history lesson? you get that what youβre doing here as a cis person is deliberately misleading right? there are young people who still remember the acronym before it included the T, considering this was a debate topic in the 90s and well into the 00s.
anonymous posts
@hookandcook says straight trans people can call themselves gay. i should point out hookandcook is, a gay trans person, but what the hell. hey dude, while straight trans people are queer for being trans, you canβt use gay and queer interchangeably like that. itβs pretty straightforward that itβs disrespectful to gay people for any straight people to call themselves gay.Β
alright! someone with an actual URL saying fucked up shit! this wasnβt so difficult was it? @rainbowgoddamnunicorn, who i canβt tag, great, but yeah what the fuck
the next anon is rubbish but theyβre touching on something iβve talked about, that trans people rarely have straight privilege even if theyβre completely hetero because of the obscene kinds of hoops one has to jump through to be considered βstraightβ, so like, theyβre being reductive but calling this anon transphobicβ¦ is a reach
all the callouts for saying trans men can be lesbians belong to @yall-aphobes-need-to-stop finally, itβs also literally up there on their blog admitting that they said it too. thereβs also a bunch of callouts already in their url tag, so i suggest blocking them!
each and every single call out for policing cis peopleβs use ofΒ βcishetβ goes to trans people! aphobic-hau and babblingqueerace and transkrem! theyβre all fucking trans! youβre calling out trans people for literally fucking calling out cis peopleβ¦ in a way you donβt like! you can call me out for this too, i stand by this.Β cis people need toβ¦ actually fucking listen to trans people on this. honestly. cis people labelling their oppressors asΒ βcishetsβ instead of as fucking straights only serves to distance themselves from their own cis privilege. and like, in the post i already linked to, sometimes trans people can actually have straight privilege? addingΒ βcisβ doesnβt actually let us have a nuanced discussion about the dynamics trans people have towards straightness. and if this really erases trans people, you really have to explain to me how? iβm fucking trans and i canβt actually make sense of your complaint here.
hey quick aside if you crop out the URL on a post? itβs fucking useless thanks
more for yall-aphobes-need-to-stop, as well as @shybiviolet, hello you should let people be mad a terfs, because terfs are fucking trash, okay, cool
underΒ βpitting lg vs btβ youβve put in that basic history lesson from before in again, i think you should read it actually? like what do you not like about it, the insinuation that bi people have faced biphobia? that cis people have been transphobic? nothing here actually demonises anyone, itβs just talking about the communityβs history with respectability politics.
hey callout post for all these anons for being homophobic! you know these are completely fucking useless right. because theyβre anonymous. like Barack Obama could have sent them for all the fuck i know. you know you can send these to yourself, thatβs why theyβre completely useless as evidence for anything.Β
and @next-venoms who i think youβll find is a fucking guro blog? and they could have worded it in a less divisive way but, i think i really agree with the sentiment? is this really the hill you want to die on. i canβt speak for biphobia, but you know cis people abuse trans people in LGBTI/queer spaces all the time right? the LGBTI community was built on trans womenβs backs.. the only thing problematic here is that it erases that bi people have as much cis privilege as gays and lesbians. but sure, letβs all call out this problematic goreporn blog
so. letβs tally up everyone who actually parroted anything even remotely simialar to what terfs have ever said;
you could have just given me the reciepts for those two. this was the most amazingly frustrating thing you could have done here. you could have at least figured out for yourself that transkrem, who has trans in their goddamn username, actually has a much more valid opinion on the word cishets than you do.. if you want me to call out anything ever again, you can at least make it readable. and not call out trans people for talking about trans issues and calling it TERF rhetoric. thatβs literally a polite, basic minimum for these kinds of posts right.
oh and also can you do me a favour? itβs to never speak about transphobia ever again. you have no idea how to use that word and itβs not your fucking discourse card. literally fucking consult me or another trans person first before you make another post this useless and misleading again.
Not all of those screenshots are mine, and some other person cropped out the op of those posts. I literally consulted a trans person when compiling those posts. I also interpreted stuff like the T was added later as in trans people werenβt always there and were added later to the community, and promoting the LG vs BT split, which ignores trans gay people and that cis bi people can still be transphobic. Like, do inclusionists think all LG people are cis? There are also trans people saying that itβs 100% okay for us to use cishet, so your point? Those anons are obviously inclusionists and shows that transphobic sentiment is there. Iβm not sure what else I could do there? Does anyone else care to join in?
yeah no matter how many times you, a cis person, willfully misinterpret what trans people have been saying to you, it doesn’t somehow make it TERF rhetoric. don’t repeat this to me again. i’m a trans lesbian so of course i’m not standing by this bullshit where you think i’m saying ‘all LG people are cis’, and neither did the screenshots you gave me that were clealy from other trans people.
