"terfsafe" well this post is terf dangerous. if a terf interacts with it they will EXPLODE.

shouldn't have to add "this includes trans people" to gender positivity posts but it's it's small price to pay to remind TERFS that literally nobody respects them

If you don’t even know what “terf rhetoric” is beyond “hating trans women”, you’re going to be fooled

if you don’t know what “alt-right / fash / white supremacy rhetoric” is beyond “hating racial minorities”, you’re going to be fooled

in a different coat of paint, without saying the worst part explicitly, how are you going to identify it by the time they recruit / convince you or the people around you?

Thinking about this TERF I spotted on the notes of a post of mine and went to her page to block her and her first post was something like “When I thought I was trans I couldn’t make other trans male friends unless I pretended to be interested in anime and this proves all trans people are perverts” and it’s like… not even getting into how unbelievably racist it is to dismiss an entire country’s animation industry as perverted, hasn’t it crossed your mind even once that anime is just something teens and people in their early 20s tend to enjoy? Like, it’s not a niche interest at all? And that it’s significantly easier to make friends with someone when you’re interested in something they’re interested in?

Nonblack people stop using aave and BLM slogans for some shitty racist tumblr funnyman challenge

Terfs and radfems DNI

Wow from a lot of posts on my dash its becoming kinda clear that a lot of you do not care about transwomen at all.

Staff did fuck all back when I was recieving harrassment from terfs telling me to kill myself.

You people really only care about making your haha funny car hammer explosion jokes while more and more transwomen are pushed out of "The Queerest place on the Internet"

Predstrogen was by far not the first and definitely won't be last. Hell this isnt even the first time so.ething like this has happened. Yall remember back when every POC blogger was being harrassed, especially Trans POC bloggers, and were pushed off the site as well?

Fuck Photomatt and fuck staff.

Its disgusting the way staff just allows bigotry and harassment to just. Happen. It's all justified because it's happening to those yucky icky nasty trans women.

There are literal, actual pedophiles on this app, and its become a serious problem, but staff can't be fucked to do anything because a trans woman had the nerve to post pictures of herself, which is obviously the more pressing matter at hand.

Do something to support your local trans woman today. Because who fucking knows if theyre still gonna be here tomorrow.

I said this in the tags of a different post but I think it bears discussion; terfs/radfems will say they're all for bodily autonomy for all women, until someone they think of as a woman [usually this includes trans men and many nonbinary people, some intersex people, some butches] decides to get top surgery or grow extra body hair.

They will say they loooove butches but the moment a butch has a complicated relationship with gender or decides to get top surgery it's "no you're doing womanhood wrong aha why don't you come back here and be feminine wear your body the way you should be?"

They will say "there's no right way to do womanhood" until the cows come home and then turn around and say "oh except for you and you and you- you're doing it wrong but we care about you so why don't you come do it the right way while we cry about your disgusting damaged wrong bodies mistakes".

It is so blatant in every single thing they do that they only give a shit about bodily "autonomy" so long as that autonomy doesn't challenge their concept of womanhood or gender. Funnily enough, their concepts of womanhood and gender seems to slot right in juuuust barely left of the white cishetero patriarchy's.

Sure, maybe they're more pro-gay, and they don't generally mind if you don't shave your pits or legs, but god forbid you have visible facial hair or cut off your symbols of womanhood breasts. God forbid you de-identify with womanhood [most trans men and many nonbinary people, as well as some intersex people and butches], or identify with it in the "wrong" way [most trans women and many nonbinary people, and again some intersex people and butches].

It is blatant and it is disgusting. You can't be pro-bodily-autonomy and anti-trans at the same time. It doesn't work.

moid is an insult against men, after the incel word femoid. It isn't really trans specific and they don't refer to trans men as that word

OHHHHH. that makes more sense. thank you. anyway yeah terfs tend to use it so watch out for it.

radfucks say stuff like "I'm so uncomfortable saying my pronouns are she when someone asks" ok then use another pronoun lol

terfs will say the most horrendous shit ever and expect you to agree with it because they literally cannot fathom why anyone wouldn't agree with them. huh. almost like the far right. hmm. surely there is no correlation between the far rights tactics of indoctrination using weak and depressed individuals with the terfs tactics of indoctrination using weak and depressed individuals. that'd be crazy wouldn't it

Terfs claim to be against gender essentialism but I literally saw a post by one joking that she met a nonbinary person who "looked more feminine than her." Congrats on having a Plato's-allegory-of-the-cave understanding of gender!

okay fine terfs then. they are morally opposed to things that you are not and vise versa. no white supremacy or genocide okay. also btw i agree with you! i do not like radqueers, i do not like nazis, i do not like terfs. i just think its fucking annoying as shit how you deflect and ignore anything and everything you disagree with

and THERE is the fucking issue. right there. you use the word "disagreement".

i disagree with my mom that pink is my best color. i disagree with my best friend that marvel movies are entertaining. i disagree with my sister that pandas are the best animal.

i do not just "disagree" with nazis, terfs, white supremacists, etc. because mere disagreement still gives them room at the table. and any room for them at the table is what gets people MURDERED. i don't deflect people for having different OPINIONS than me. but if you can genuinely sit there and say that racism, antisemitism, transphobia, etc., are just "different opinions", then i don't trust you within a mile of me. their "opinions" would see the death of me, of all my friends, of my entire community, of entire other communities, for simply existing, and to imply that i have to actually make space within my own trauma to accommodate their "opinions" is just fucking HORRIBLE.

i will not reply to you anymore and if you reach out again i will simply block you.

Just got this tag on a post of mine and it’s from a gross transmisogynist and idk if she means the person she reblogged from or if she’s truly confusing me for someone of her ilk so I just wanted to make it VERY clear: I’m trans, I’m not a “secret TERF” and I genuinely abhor them and wish they’d all spontaneously combust.

TERFs: I’m a DYKE! I’m a MUFFDIVER! I’m a LESBO! I’m a CARPET MUNCHER!

Queer person: I’m queer.

TERFs: how DARE you use a SLUR????? Absolutely despicable this is why homophobia still exists

What has been seen cannot be unseen, aka: I follow several Jewish people on Tumblr and after hearing them talk about the antisemitism in the Harry Potter books, movies, and games it's really disheartening to see how hard a lot of (mostly white) queer people are pressing the "don't play the game because it's transphobic!" angle and not enough at all of "HEY there is SO MUCH blatant antisemetism in this game, what the actual fuck?" I've seen Jewish people, queer and not queer alike, lamenting that it feels like only other Jews care.

I'm trans. I understand the outrage. Who wouldn't be fucking pissed as hell knowing that the cartoon villain that Terfling has become has publicly bragged about pouring HP royalties into anti-trans funding, or announcing that she counts any support for HP as support for her awful views? I'm mad about it! We all should be!

But we aren't the only community who is negatively impacted by this game, and.. maybe we aren't all individually required to speak on this but... Someone has to. A lot of someones.

(commentary from Jewish people always welcome, I hope this was a helpful addition to the current HL discussion)
