likeā¦.. how do they go around saying ace people all hate DIRTY ALLO SEX HAVERS and then pull this shit
āThat cannot possibly be true,ā I said to myself, unwilling to believe that they would stoop so low. āThereās no way thatās a real thing.ā
It is indeed a true and real thing currently being said.
I know all REGs are the same, but sometimes I forget how prominent REGs are in every arena.
If your arguments for the protection of childrenās health have been debunked a thousand times over by every medical, psychological and public safety group since the fifties, then you are full of shit and need to stop.
actually. truscum, thereās already a cure. itās conversion therapy. stop pretending cis people will ever care enough about our dysphoria to make a magical anti-dysphoria injection or whatever you imagine the Cure is going to look like. torturing us to get us to stop transitioning is always going to be less effort for them. just get it through your heads that there will be no cure other than electric shocks and psychological reprogramming
āpsychiatry wouldnāt do that to usā they already do it to autistic kids to get rid of autism symptoms. after decades of looking for an autism cure itās still only electroshock therapy and aborting autistic kids before birth. promises of autism cures have led to actual deaths. more times than i like to think about, when a parent is promised a cure for long enough and realise there isnāt one, the next ācureā they try is murdering their child.
thatās why acceptance is the only way to go. acceptance will get less of us tortured and killed, no matter which group weāre talking about. stop giving cis people the idea that itās okay to āfixā us because it will never be a good option for us, especially the children that canāt fight back.
[here are some blacklist keywords in case anyone doesnāt tag this right: conversion therapy, torture, eugenics, child abuse, electroshock therapy, trans deaths, autistic deaths, disabled deaths, trans murders, autistic murders, disabled murders, death of trans people, death of autistic people, death of disabled people, ableism, transphobia, truscum discourse. tell me if i missed any possible trigger because This Is Not a Fun Post]
itās been what, a year of SGA Discourse? if i google SGA, i get pages about gardening and random businesses with those initials. if i google āsame gender attractionā i get a few resources, but the top pages are christian and mormon sources and a lot of them call it a sin.
if i google MOGAI, i get resources. lots of resources and pages discussing terminology. the first page of Google has one link to āMOGAI hates lesbiansā, written by a Discourser whoās entirety writing about how āallosexualā is insulting, but the rest are all pretty positive.
so just. I donāt think itās ethical to tell people that LGBT+ is synonymous with āSGA and Trans peopleā because itās just a conversion therapy honeypot.
You realize when you look sga up it usually shows results for same sex attraction which is not the same and sga is derived from same gender loving
me turning in my graduate thesis: yeah i didnāt use any ⦠whatās it calledā¦. da-ta-basses? and i didnāt read any scientific journals to back up my claims, but i DID google my thesis statement and hit up a few google keywords for my abstract, and look at all these sick sources i got from buzzfeed and yahoo answers, so i know WITHOUT A DOUBT that iām right and nobody else could be more right than me. google knows everything, yāallĀ
are questioning kids going through databases now? kids google, that was my point. this wasnāt about anything but what kids are going to find if they look it up, because that is how they educate themselves outside of school and parents. and it brings up overwhelmingly christian sites. Thatās All. Iām sorry this doesnāt have 20 citations and itās not peer reviewed but iām just saying theyāre going to be harmed and shamed if thatās the acronym we tell kids about.
you didnāt mention questioning kids, or kids in general, in your original statement. you literally just said it was about what āpeopleā thought. donāt fucking backtrack and lie to make it seem like you were āuwu just protecting the kidsā because you ended up looking like a fool lmao
your post reads that YOU, in your infinite wisdom, are deciding whether MOGAI or SGA is a better acronym to use based on the first page of google, ignoring that a) the first page of google results is not a valid form of sources, b) that the google algorithm is replacing āgenderā with āsexā (since it searches for terms similar to the one you actually type in), and c) that google (like many search engines) is notorious for boosting pages that pay them money to the front page, which thereby banishes thousands of other legitimate results to the back of google hell.
sorry, your post doesnāt mention anything about kids, or questioning people, or LGBT people at all. the only context is someone who doesnāt actually know how to use google trying to pretend that their google results are the ultimate authority.
i said itās unethical to send anyone looking for conversion therapy resources, and yes, especially questioning kids because theyāre the most likely to google this stuff and are especially vulnerable. These are the first three results, are you going to pretend this is okay?
Thatās the first page of results on my mobile. There are 2 results that are in anyway positive and not related to conversion therapy, which seem to be results based on my location.
This is what I get on my laptop – Theyāre literally all advocating for conversion therapy. I donāt know why the results look different, but my laptop isnāt giving any location-based results, so that may have something to do with it. I donāt know what the inner workings of google look like, and Iām not claiming to know. If anyone wants to show me a google search that gives less pro-conversion results, I can open my submission box for you. All I remember is when I was figuring out my identity, I relied a lot on google, and I know none of these results would have helped. I know googling words isnāt fuckingĀ āscientificā, but itās what I remember doing as a youngster. kids, especially queer kids, get their sex ed from google. like, Iām not sayingĀ SGA discourers are pro-conversion therapy, Iām just saying this is such a specifically tumblr-discourser term that there isnāt enough use of the term to outnumber that of homophobic Christians.
and holy fuck is it that hard to say gay and bi and pan? and MLM and WLW? Sapphic and Achillean? Thereās always better vocabulary you can use and itās just not justifiable to keep spreading conversion therapy terms.
I really hate it when parents of autistic kids use phrases like āI know theyāre in there.ā Bitch theyāre right in front of you! You havenāt lost them! Theyāre not locked away like a final boss in a video game!! This is your child As Is! Love them for who they are not what you wish they would be! Fuck!
I didnāt expect this to get notes but itās absolutely ok to reblog and Iām glad it has been
if āfemale socialisationā is a horrible, harmful thing for cis women and trans women, wouldnāt ‘male socialisationā also be harmful for cis men and especially trans women? surelyā being indoctrinated into gender roles under the patriarchy is bad, even if those gender roles are telling you that youāre (expected to be) good and strong and powerful? because this socialisation is still hurting even cis men, they have problems dealing with emotions and anger issues into adulthood because it was never taught to them as kids.
like i honestly donāt get if TERFs are pro-socialisation or against. They make it very clear that ‘female socialisationā is a harmful patriarchal system that harms ‘femalesā from birth (including of course the trans men they’reā misgendering). itās described very clearly as trauma.
but trans women need to be demonised for undergoing the exact same thing? told weāre as bad as cis men when we’reā actively trying to unlearn it? told we benefit from it, as if weāve been built to be good little patriarchal servants, as if we havenāt had psychological scars from the process. u canāt imagine this socialisation is a good thing for us. u canāt imagine any trans girl wanted it.
so maybeā¦. stop attacking trans women as if we benefit from our childhoods. and if u really hate ‘female socialisationā, u should probably stand with trans people calling for gender neutral parenting, honestly.
