transmed voice: I have never once considered psychology as a discipline to be anything but completely Objective. If something is listed as a mental illness, then it is! I’ve never heard of the word “pathologisation” in my life and I don’t have enough historical knowledge to understand how science and academia can be tools against marginalised people. I’ve never heard about how women masturbating and black people wanting to escape slavery have also been classified as mental illnesses, or i’m naive enough to think that the systems that once enabled this have changed or dissapeared.

i also just hate trans people who scrape enough self-esteem together to not hate their body, and will fight against trans positivity at every turn 🙂 This is what I Objectively think as a Fellow Trans, and i’m going to avoid thinking about how every thing i say benefits TERFs and other people who will send me to conversion camp the second they get the chance 🙂

i’m also a conservative or libertarian leaning trans guy under the age of 21

sorry if me Stating the Facts offends you sweaty :’)

Yeah and black cats are bad luck and witches were hung. Times have changed with scientific evidence.

thanks but i’ve already got “i’m naive enough to think that the systems that enabled this have changed or dissapeared”

“mogai tumblr made it hard to figure out my gender/sexuality when first coming out”

consider: You don’t have to have a vendetta against queers with the “weird” genders and sexualities, especially teenagers, because you used to consider yourself one of them

also consider: the answer to “my identity was hard to figure out” is not to make it harder for other people. erasing other people’s identities will not make your own more visible. MOGAI people actually quite often find it helpful to have words for their identities, like yourself, and everyone else in the world

also consider: your anger is misdirected. heteronormativity hurt you several billion times more than the split attraction model ever could. No one who IDs as frostgender has the social capital to gaslight and coerce children from birth into a gender. straight and cis people are 100% to blame for the shame we’re made to feel for our identities and placing blame on young queers achieves nothing but furthering that shame. there is no good political goal that can be achieved by bullying mogais you nasty fucks

I’m just frustrated because of how much these people set me back. Even now, I constantly doubt myself because “What if the only reason I feel this way is because I’m still confused?” Things would have been so much easier if I would have been properly taught the relations between gender and sex from the beginning instead of being fed the bullshit that this community fed me. Heteronormativity has not hurt me. This community has. I’m not trying to make it harder for anyone. In fact, I’m just trying to spread the truth so they don’t have to be so confused and frustrated for longer than they have to.

“Heteronormativity has not hurt me. This community has” thanks, anti-sjw and transmedicalist guy, count me enlightened. wait are you saying cishet culture has taught you better about sex and gender than ‘this community’ has?

Actually, no. It was a bunch of transgender people, believe it or not. Trans people who actually know what they’re talking about. But seriously. I didn’t even know the proper definition of transgender until I stepped out of the stupid bubble of that community and accepted facts. I’d suggest doing some research yourself :).

the definition of us being all mentally ill, thanks. Do you think, however, that definition serves people who dismiss us and want to fix the trans out of us, a lot more than it serves us, trans people? like i’m pretty cool where I am, and that’s not actively shooting myself in the foot, or letting cis people define me, thanks

het trans ppl aren’t queer

het ace ppl aren’t queer

het intersex ppl aren’t queer

het nobody is queer they are literally opposing concepts

I don’t like this idea but I’m having a hard time articulating why r/n I’ll get back to it later.

Yeah I think I got this now.

This positions the western colonially-derived concept of gayness as the only true queerness and only conditionally permits other forms of queerness which do not abide by that western colonial framework.

This segments and disenfranchises hetero trans women whom I should not have to explain to you are being murdered by the dozen ON THIS DAY OF ALL DAYS. Does that not sound like marginalization to you? The more I think about this the angrier I get.

I mean it’s a fuckin trope to bring it up but there were plenty of man loving trans women fighting at stonewall. Is that not queer enough for you? I’m really growing ever more disgusted with this exclusionary process.

The whole point of the narrative of queerness is to be liberating. Revolutionary and destructive to the order of patriarchy, heteronormativity, cisnormativity, to break open the neat airtight containers and allow movement and the freedom to self-position, to self-define, and that cannot be accomplished with this kind of resistance to change.

Does someone who is transgender and attracted to another gender not experience the kind of abuses that we do as trans lesbians? Do they not experience violence, do they not experience being bludgoned with slurs, do they not experience being taught to loathe their own body for not meeting an impossible standard? Do they not experience the violation of bodily integrity which comes with an unwanted puberty?

Do intersex people not experience a kind of violation of bodily integrity as well? Do they not experience stigmatization and the pressure to conceal what and who they are, the reality of their body and the effect that has on their identity?

Do asexual people not go for years believing that they are fundamentally broken, as we go through years believing the same about ourselves?

Why do you want to hand the keys to the fucking kingdom to the very cisgay motherfuckers who would kick YOUR ASS out of the movement in a hot second, autogynephile? Like, love yourself, goddess almighty.

Jesus fucking Christ the longer it goes on the worse it gets

I mean, at least they’re finally being honest…

If a society puts half its children into short skirts and warns them not to move in ways that reveal their panties, while putting the other half into jeans and overalls and encouraging them to climb trees, play ball, and participate in other vigorous outdoor games; if later, during adolescence, the children who have been wearing trousers are urged to “eat like growing boys,” while the children in skirts are warned to watch their weight and not get fat; if the half in jeans runs around in
sneakers or boots, while the half in skirts totters about on spike heels, then these two groups of people will be biologically as well as socially different. Their muscles will be different, as will their reflexes, posture, arms, legs and feet, hand-eye coordination, and so on. (…) 

There is no way to sort the biological and social components that produce these differences. We cannot sort nature from nurture when we confront group differences in societies in which people from different races, classes, and sexes do not have equal access to resources and power, and therefore live in different environments.

If you think 12 year olds are too young for tattoos but can decide on hormone therapy, there is something wrong with you.

^^^^^

If you think a picture on your body for cosmetic reasons and life-saving medication for a serious medical condition are in any way comparable, there is something wrong with you.

Furthermore, no 12 year old goes on hormone therapy. They go on puberty blockers once puberty kicks in, which does nothing more than delay puberty and has been found by studies to be safe, extremely helpful to transgender children, and completely reversible should the child not go through with transition. It buys them time so they can make the decision once they’re older.

When you advocate against transgender teenagers going on puberty blockers, you advocate for more transgender teen suicides.

These are necessary and often live-saving treatments for very distressing medical conditions. Stop comparing them to something as unnecessary as fucking tattoos.

hey bi people don’t, don’t ever say lesbians are an oppressive group to a trans lesbian, ever

like we deal with terfs and We Know What You’re Talking About, i have met the lesbians you’re referring to but you can still phrase it better than a blanket statement saying i’m Oppressive and Gross. Especially as anyone transmisogyny excempt, you know
