I'm being extremely charitable to terfs. They're not this stupid. These are bots.
Plastic plants are plants. Period. And they need sunlight, dirt and water to be validated. Stop reducing plants to their parts not everyone is constantly spreading their seeds or being cross pollinating bee sluts.
Dont be a perf (plastic exclusionary radical farmer)

Authentically the dumbest anti-trans argument I have ever seen. This had to have been made by an AI bot.

the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.

This is the last thing I'm going to say on this because it's just infantile the way this person is behaving. It is VERY common for racists to deflect when using dog whistles and call *you* racist for pointing out their dog whistle. Pointing out the history of racism (racists seeing black women as too masculine) and pointing out the logical conclusion of terf ideology (cis women being assaulted for not fitting the white gender stereotype) is not racism. It's an indictment on a white nationalist movement that has swept up a bunch of children who think they're being feminist. If you don't want racism to affect you, stop spouting racists anti-trans talking points. Until then, leave me the hell outta your wild crusade.

Racism by trans people and their allies is why they will never get the support of black women and girls.
At least conservatives have the honesty to call you a slur and keep it moving. But white leftists/liberals will be coy about their views of black people especially black women.
Black women, those people feel entitled to your activism, your emotional and physical labor. When you say no, when you prioritize yourself, and when you walk away.
This is when they reveal what they think about you.
Tumblr media
Because why is the first thought about a black woman being beaten related to her being "masculine".
Why did you equate that act to her being viewed as masculine by white men and not a hate crime?
Why was it not an act of misogynistic violence? Or racism? In this hypothetical all of this was ignored. But you jumped straight to her being masculine?
These white trans people and their allies have racist implicit racial biases that accidentally slip out when you refuse to support them.
And when you push them on why you felt the need to create this hypothetical that called black women "masculine" at the hands of physical violence of white men?
They'll bring up something about Emmitt Till (get his history and death wrong), conservatives, Loving v Virginia, and everything unrelated to why their first thought about black women is masculine?
Because secretly they have dehumanized you and you're only as good for them when your a slave or mammy doing unpaid and unrequited emotional and physical labor.
Choose yourself. Always.

Lastly, of course this person calls someone they think is white "thin lips" in a discussion about racism. Why else would they say it? I don't have pictures of me on here. How do they know what my lips look like?

Third, here's me trying to de-escalate. The entire conversation is me calmly explaining my position and this person flying off the handle. Because they want to embarrass themselves, I'll go ahead and post this too.

First, I knew you were going to try to put words in my mouth. *i* made a claim, *I* submitted evidence for *my* claim. No where did I say anything about the n word. You brought that up. Second, just because it's not equivalent doesn't make it okay to say.

Pointing out racism exists = racism, according to yet another young 20 something who doesn't know what they're talking about. This account sent me messages harassing me, cussing me out, and calling me racial slurs. But I'm the racist for pointing out racists exist. Okay.

There is so much more I could say about this, but there is not enough room. Remember to check with reality rather than believing conspiracy theories promoted, supported, and funded by white nationalist hate groups.
Missouri is proposing 20% of the nation’s anti-trans legislation this session. Gender-affirming care for young folks is on the edge of being criminalized (so much love to trans friends in states where that has already happened).
Please keep up with the anti-trans legislation in your state and combat it. There are lives at stake.
Transphobes do not touch this post.
Image ID: a 10-image cartoon comic featuring Joey, a boy with short hair.
Image 1: Joey, upset, gesticulates towards an open laptop. Text reads: The reality of St. Louis trans kids. Last week, a former (non-medical) employee of Washington University’s Pediatric Transgender Center was featured in a viral article about how the clinic was “rushing” kids into medical care and “mutilating” us. Every single thing she said was a lie, but the media loves it. Footnote reads: I wouldn’t give any more attention to this, but it is immediately endangering the lives of trans people. Missouri has launched a state investigation and is actively attempting to criminalize gender-affirming care based on conspiracy theories.
Image 2: Joey points to a map of the United States where Missouri is singled out, and a map of Missouri where St. Louis is indicated with a star. The text reads: The Transgender Center, located in St. Louis, Missouri, has been the target of hateful attacks from the far-right state legislature for years. It is part of Washington University Hospital, a branch of a prestigious private university.
Image 3: A younger Joey injects his T shot in his leg while someone takes a photo. Text reads: I can tell you that everything in the article is false because I received care at the Transgender Center beginning at 16 years old. My medical transition has brought me nothing but joy. What a gift it is to be trans!
Image 4: A younger Joey sits on a couch and stims with a tangle fidget toy. Text reads: No one is “rushed”. I sat on many waitlists, had to have 6 months of specialized gender therapy and a diagnosis of gender dysphoria before even being referred to the Center, and I was denied as “not ready enough” by an endocrinologist the first time I finally got an appointment. Footnote reads: If you’re curious about what it looks like to be a trans kid, I did another piece on that! Check out tinyurl.com/transkidscomictumblr.
Image 5: A colorful map of the United States shows how many states have a Negative Gender Identity Policy Tally and how many states have criminalized gender affirming care. Joey holds a credit card. Text reads: St. Louis’ Pediatric Transgender Center is the only one in the region, meaning the waitlists are extremely long. Plus, no one in the only industrialized country without free healthcare is getting medical care for fun. Many American trans folks have to fundraise for our care.
Image 6: Joey, distressed, sits on a couch while talking on the phone. The person on the other end says: “That’s me!” Text reads: This former employee spoke about specific cases, and patients have been able to identify themselves. She shared our private medical info and called us horrifying.
Image 7: This is split into two panels. In the first, Joey holds up a box of condoms and a packet of birth control pills. Texts reads: She especially hated trans men such as myself, saying that trans ideology was destroying “girls”. She lamented about hormones making us “sterile”, which is a complete lie. We trans mascs have to actively prevent pregnancy. In panel two stands a doctor. Text reads: Every time I had an appointment at the Center, doctors reminded me: Remember: testosterone is not a contraceptive! Footnote reads: The wonderful Erin Reed wrote a breakdown debunking all the lies in the article. See tinyurl.com/erinreedmissouri.
Image 8: Joey, masked, sits at a circular table with his brother, an unmasked boy with fluffy short hair. Joey’s brother is showing him his phone. Text reads: Major newspapers continue to platform these complete lies because they bring in engagement and money. The Washington Post tracked down my little brother’s personal cell phone number to try to get in contact with our mom – the president of an organization supporting trans kids in Missouri. Freaky, right?
Image 9: Joey, looking disgusted, leans against a door frame while talking on a cell phone. Text reads: But no one wants to talk with me, the adult who medically transitioned at this clinic as a minor and has not “desisted” in six years. The Washington Post reporter, who didn’t know anything about trans people, talked with me for 20 minutes and used a sentence of mine in an article about “both sides of the debate”. She didn’t mention that this former employee is being legally represented by a recognized anti-LGBT hate group, nor that all of her claims are unsupported by reality or science.
Image 10: Joey looks angry and gesticulates. Beside the drawing are two photos of Joey, one of him happy in front of a trans flag, and the other of him drawing up testosterone to take his first T shot. Text reads: There is no debate. There are trans people, and there are people who want us dead. There is truth and there are conspiracy theories. Where is my viral article in a major paper?

It can't possibly be the conservative politics that halted wage growth, increased poverty, killed and silenced gay people through the aids epidemic and section 22. No, people can't hate a person because of their disastrous politics. It MUST be because she's a woman. You don't even know your own countries history or why princess Diane touching an AIDS patient was such a big fucking deal. Nope, people can't hate THE most influential political figure responsible for untold damage. Get back on your short bus and lick the windows.
thinking about how margaret thatcher gets far more hate than any male politician ever does…
just men using politics to justify their misogyny (because they’d never treat a male politician like they do her)

Proving my point. Doesn't even understand the link between Reagan and thatcher and why they are hated. So it's just "oh she's a woman *that must be the reason*. Maybe actually read a book.

As a lesbian i will always relate more to trans women than cishet women. Made to feel disgusting and predatory in women’s spaces? Check. Berated and mocked for our relation to sexuality and womanhood? Check. Hated for our “deviancy from the norm”? Check. Every single essay about womanhood by a trans woman–and especially, especially by trans wlw–has spoken more to me than anything written by a cis straight woman ever could. T*rfs can take that to the bank.
