very very funny how intersex transfems are by far the most vocal haters of tme/tma as binary terms because of the way that perisex people use them to discredit intersex trans people's complex experiences. but sure it's just those horrible afab trans people again!!
[Plaintext: very very funny how intersex transfems are by far the most vocal haters of tme/tma as binary terms because of the way that perisex people use them to discredit intersex trans people's complex experiences. but sure it's just those horrible afab trans people again!! End Plaintext.]
(also do not fucking try to witch hunt these people. i will block you on sight, i cropped out the urls for a reason)
edit: reminder that this post was made first and foremost about intersexism, and while it's okay to discuss other forms of oppression in the tags and reblogs (especially since i tagged them as such), please stop trying to brush off the original point.

i just saw someone say "trans mascs we need to do better and stop denying the gravity of transmisogynist violence." while downplaying the gravity of anti-transmasculine violence. not only that, it was on SOMEONE ELSE'S TWEET, of him venting about how he can see someone say that he has it less hard, and then scroll and see multiple articles about trans men being murdered.
i'm so sick of this. how do you go onto a TRANS MAN'S VENT TWEET to try and shift the focus onto trans women? to try and go "ermm well youre a transmasc so it's actually not that bad". do you understand how fucking vile that is?

Tumblr is still actively endorsing transphobia on this website. Reblog the fuck out of this.
Tumblr got back to me about a report for once... Just to tell me that the blatant transphobia I reported "does not violate community guidelines."
These are the posts which Tumblr staff decided should be kept on the platform, with screenshots.
Also, I apologize in advance for censoring the usernames of the transphobes in the screenshots. Tumblr does absolutely nothing to protect its trans users, so I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up getting in trouble instead, just for including their usernames. I will mention, however, that every transphobe had transphobic dogwhistles in their usernames and/or bio. Transphobes are not difficult to spot. Staff are just apathetic at best, and actively transphobic at worst.
Exhibit A: A post in which someone repeatedly and explicitly misgenders trans women, fearmongers about "trans ideology," uses transphobic dogwhistles, and denies the existence of transmisogyny. This isn't even the full post; it was an incredibly long transphobic tangent. The comments were full of transphobes as well. None of them were banned. Tumblr staff think this is okay.
Tumblr media
Exhibit B: A post in which someone delights in the idea of a trans person hurting themselves by "ripping at their surgery scars," with additional ableist undertones. Not a hypothetical trans person either; a real individual trans person. She was not banned.
Tumblr media
Exhibit C: A post in which a self-proclaimed TERF refers to consensual gender affirming surgeries as "forced surgeries" and frames trans people as "Nazis and fascists" just for trying to become comfortable in our own bodies. She did this in direct response to trans people celebrating their own surgeries. She was not banned.
Tumblr media
Exhibit D: A post in which someone says "transgenderism is erasing women" and blames the existence of misgendering and degendering on trans people, as if we aren't also hurt by those things frequently. She also said that trans women are "not women" in comments on her own post. She was not banned.
Tumblr media
Exhibit E: A post in which someone engages in a blatant form of Holocaust denial, by saying trans transgender and queer people "were not targeted" (while simultaneously casting doubt on the validity of those identities themselves by putting them in scare quotes). Trans persecution and book burnings are a well documented aspect of the Holocaust. This post was also reblogged by other transphobes. None of them were banned.
Tumblr media
@staff care to explain why you think these posts are okay? Would you like to tell us how and why these "don't violate community guidelines"? Did you learn nothing from the lawsuit that happened because of transphobia among staff? After everything that has happened, why is there still nothing being done about the rampant transphobia on this website?
Just curious.
Also, in case I get banned or this post gets deleted, here's an archived version of my post. Keep it tucked away somewhere.

you want more weird trans people but can't even handle trans people using pronouns you personally dislike.

"Do you even notice how many trans men and trans women used to identify as non-binary? I'm not saying non-binary people aren't real or anything. But it's a common stepping stone for trans people."
That only makes sense if you erase the non-binary and genderqueer people who used to identify as binary trans men and binary trans women.
And the only reason to do that is if you devalue non-binary and genderqueer people.

You want to believe the smear campaigns about the coiner of the word transandrophobia and the prominent bloggers who popularised it? You want to find a new term that people will "allow" you to use?
You're fresh out of luck. The transmasc community have already tried transmisandry, transmisia, antimasculism, virilmisia, virilphobia and anti transmasculinity to name a few and people have found "problems" with all of them. Hell, people complain if we try to call it misogyny or just plain old transphobia. It doesn't matter what language we use, people just want us to sit down and shut up.
Some people are now even calling the term transunity racist and transmisogynistic. We can't win with people who hate us. Stop pandering to them.

It's pretty sad how fellow trans ppl are praising celebrities for doing absolute bare minimum, like saying things like: trans women are women, trans men are men, etc. And nonbinary people are not real? This is exorsexism, and you're participating in it. Congrats.
You really don't give a fuck about nonbinary people. Your allyship ends after saying: transmascs and transfems, and you pat each other backs for being so inclusive while erasing a big chuck of nonbinary identies who are outside the gender binary (who would have thought that nonbinary people are NON binary)

Arguing with someone on twitter and seeing them piss themselves because I actually am not TME and do experience transmisogyny as an intersex woman is always fun.
Anyways if you think calling people "theyfab" is okay why don't you just call me a shemale. Come on, do it. I know that's what you want to call me. Because you purposefully will call me something that describes an idea you have of what is allowed to be sexualized and brutalized but somehow get cold feet when it comes to calling me intersexist or transmisogynistic terms. Is it because you know it's wrong?
Anyways yes there is an issue with transandrophobic people calling trans women and women who are also trans* this term in order to get around being openly transmisogynistic. They don't want to accept they're a transphobe who would beat and kill and destroy their own sisters because they want to claim they will only devour their brothers and siblings who have the "evil AGAB" but the truth is they have no love for trans people at all and would rather we all suffer together.
--------------------
* I have a weird situation where idk if I'm allowed to call myself a trans woman because of the whole intersex thing. If I stopped T I could switch to E because I have enough T naturally that I am in the area where I could be on hormones to transition either way. But I chose T because I came to accept I was trans in some way when I was being masculinized both by myself and others. And I actually feel a lot better and healthier now that I've been on T for a while but I'm sure it's possible if I went on E I may have also felt better because I just already had a weird imbalance of hormones. But the main reason I'm sticking to T is because I like facial hair and I like not having periods that remind me of my past with CSA.

The thing is, i am scared to publicly post pictures of my hoarde after the encounter with cohost.
It's insane because it's gotten into racism and transandrophobic territory where trans men are blamed because I loudly expressed how you should not be transandrophobic. I even made an entire secondary blog dedicated to strictly talking about transandrophobia and how it hurts groups of people. I made a list of transmasc/nonbinary mascs who were killed in 2024, I posted resources, uplifted transmasc voices, and continued to focus on that focal point of it. It was never about someone else, it was always about people being targeted for being transmasc, and how transandrophobia shaped queer communities into anti-transmasculinity to favor feminine people because queer to a cishetnormative society means feminine. It means anything that ""threatens"" the "female state". To queerphobes, queer means anything that threatens what they think a female is. (which in this case no longer is just being "feminine" bc if ur masc and a "female", u still have to prove yourself.)
I'm still around family that calls women, "females". But that ""luxury"" is not given to men. It is not trans men vs trans women, it has always been how cishetnormative standards never had true femininity. Feminine people do not exist in cishetnormative society. You are either masculine or submissive. And you want to know who that hurts? Those who are ""threat"" to the "female state" or "cismasculinity".
That includes trans men for being ""gender traitors"" for being ""woman hypnotized into men"", that includes trans women for being ""predators"" for being ""men dressing as little girls"", and everyone in between like nonbinary people and intersex folks trying to retain their rights to bodily autonomy. ALL of them are harmed by the idea that feminine means queer, and let's admit - A LOT of queer people have adopted the idea that queer means feminine. They have forgotten that the reason they associate it like that is BECAUSE of cishetnormative society dressing the label that way and denoting any gay man as feminine, and now queers that have picked it up - they're excepting femininity from all trans mascs. When a trans masc doesn't present that and reinforces that they would like more masculine representation, people complain that they want to be referred as masculine. "tell me you're not comfortable with your masculinity without telling me !1!1!" kind of posts all over Twitter recently.
in cishetnormative society, it's either cismasculinity or submissiveness. and they categorize anything feminine as queer because it could ""threaten"" the basis of which these two operate on. They hate trans men for being "fake men who should be submissive", and they hate trans women for being "fake women who should be cismasculine."
and we're still trying to avoid pointing attention to how bad every queer person is handling it by refocusing on tme/tma language. (if we do what we did before but harsher, it'll go away again.)

"going on testosterone will make you sterile" is one of the most dangerous lies that transphobes promote because, no, it doesn't. trans afabs on T can still get pregnant. speading this lie around can lead to trans afabs who have sex with amabs having unwanted pregnancies. this is especially dangerous due to the overturn of roe v wade. if they live in a state where abortion has been criminalized and they want one, they either have to go to another state or carry it to term. if you're someone who has heard that T makes you sterile and believed it, this is me telling you its not true, it's a transphobic lie. don't spead it around. please

yes you love and cherish trans people but are you normal about intersex people, who are significantly more likely to be trans than a perisex person (at least in terms of intersex youth)?
do you acknowledge that they are directly targeted by many bills that also target trans people or do you say that they're just another group being indirectly targeted by anti-trans bills?
do you say that no kids are being forced on hrt or do you acknowledge that intersex babies are often forced on hrt?
do you acknowledge that intersex people can often have a complex experience with gender or do you just scream "intersex people can be cis too!!" whenever an intersex trans person tells you to stop disregarding their unique relationship with gender?
do you see a post asking for people to listen to intersex people and respond without sexualizing us or do you conflate your allyship with sexuality by saying "yeah i'd totally fuck an intersex person!"?
do you call animals with intersex conditions "trans icons" or do you actually acknowledge their intersex conditions?
do you treat us like human beings or do you ask us invasive questions about our genitals like we're some kind of lab rats?
do you listen when we tell you not to call us hermaphrodites or do you just make the excuse that animals are called hermaphrodites so you should be allowed to call us that too?
do you acknowledge intersex transfems and transmascs regardless of their casab or do you screech about how intersex people are co-opting your terms?
do you try and group intersex people under terms like amab/afab and tme/tma without acknowledging their actual experiences or do you just yell about how intersex people are trying to take your language away? (edit: this also includes very conveniently not mentioning intersex people's concerns and experiences when yelling about this)
do you acknowledge that not all intersex people are white? do you care about intersex poc?
do you care about us outside of the times that you can use us against transmisic people as a gotcha?

TERFs make no sense. They'll legit say things like 'people don't menstruate, only women do!', 'don't call me a person, I'm a woman!' and think it's the pinnacle of feminism. Like. you're literally saying women aren't people. what the fuck are you talking about

that's it.
there is NO safe way to be trans. we have to build our own safety.
but there is no safe way to BE trans, when even afab nonbinary people who don't medically transition get fucking murdered. the very group of people i've seen a lot of trans people claim have it easier, are safer, aren't really oppressed, for reasons none other than transmedicalism, exorsexism and misogyny.
i never want to hear about "afab privilege again.
i never want to hear about how nonbinary people are safer because we're "basically cis".
i never want to hear about how trans people who only socially transition aren't targeted for their transness again.
i never want to hear the term "theyfab" again.
i never want to hear about how "nothing happens" to afab nonbinary people who don't medically transition again.
i never want to hear about how we're the biggest oppressors of "real trans people" ever again.
i never want to hear about how the experiences of medically transitioning non medically transitioning trans people are so fundamentally different from each other that we're closer to cis than trans.
i never want to hear about how us being the nonbinary stereotype somehow means we're not in danger.
i never want to hear any of this shit about how we're "the safest" again because that rhetoric emboldens people to be violent towards us, knowing we won't be believed. i never want to hear about our "privilege" again when they all see us as transes who should be fucking dead.
i don't want to hear it ever again. there is no safe way to be trans.
Nex wasn't protected by being afab or by being nonbinary or by not being medically transitioned. neither were many others. our deaths are just erased because we are already so easily erased in life. and it's common for trans people to be misidentified in death anyway. so what do you think happens to trans people that even many trans people deem cis?
the rhetoric that we are not in real danger is part of our danger.

Edit: Can't believe the irony of me having to say this, but I do apparently have to say this: Not wanting boobs and not wanting to be seen as feminine does not mean you are, or want to be seen as masculine. I'm not transmasculine just because I don't want boobs and don't want to be seen as feminine.
You cannot read a post where the point is having boobs does not equal being feminine and go oh! right. Because not wanting boobs equals being masculine! No!! I'm not transmasculine! I'm not trying to look masculine! Kill the gender binary that has a stranglehold on your views of gender!
Stop shoving nonbinary people into a new set of binary boxes!
___
the idea that having boobs gets you automatically and inherently classified as being "female presenting" and "feminine presenting" in so-called progressive circles makes me want to maul people.
I've said this before and I'll just keep repeating it forever: I'm disabled. I can't wear a binder. If I tried I'd dislocate several ribs and that'd be the least of my worries. Like. you know why ribs not being where they're supposed to be is dangerous? Yeah. Yeah. Use your imagination. That's a real thing I have to worry about.
I can't even wear a sports bra that's several sizes """too large""" comfortably.
And yeah, I can use trans tape, but that takes concerted time and effort to put on and take off, and every time you put it on you get different results, and you might just mess it up entirely and waste it, and it can get itchy if you're sweating with it on (and it's 90 degrees almost all the time it's not actively winter here, so that's...literally unavoidable. Even sitting in the living room. Because the electric company charges an arm and a leg for AC during the summer AND won't even give you enough to actually cool your shitty tiny apartment even with all the doors shut and curtains drawn!!!!!), and it's expensive to buy more of.
And especially because this declaration of "feminine presenting" or "female presenting" that gets shoved onto you is not only misgendering you, but placing the blame on you for being misgendered for not looking not-female enough. It's no longer the speaker making incorrect assumptions, they're now literally declaring that this is a concious decision you make. You are choosing to "present" yourself this way...by having a body that you have no control over.
And even when it comes to clothes, the idea that the clothes you wear is another purposeful, conscious Presentation™ of your gender...
Even if we ignore for a moment the fact that being disabled and poor severely limits the clothes you can wear and even just have access to, what about people who literally don't get to choose what their clothes are? Kids whose parents buy their clothes for them, people whose carers choose their outfits for them?
My gender is not "sun-bleached tank top and shorts with a reflective sun hat". That's just what I wear so I don't die of heat stroke every time I set foot outside, and so that my joints are not being painfully constricted every time I move. I literally can't take my hat off outside during the day without developing a headache (or are they fucking migraines? fuck if I know!) within minutes from the sun trying to murder me from my light sensitivity. And it took me years to even realize that it was light sensitivity causing this. I remember in middle school the substitute gym teacher asked if I was a vampire because I moved to the closest shady spot every time we moved to a new area.
And like. Let's be honest. Even if I could safely wear a binder...They're fucking expensive.
It's just really fucking annoying that so many people equate binding with being trans and so many people who are supposed to be allies are just so comfortable labeling other people, who they haven't asked, as "feminine presenting" just because of the presence of boobs. Like we have any choice in the matter. Like having visible boobs just means you're asking to be misgendered.

Popular Trans Blogger: You should never misgender any trans person ever. It does not matter what they have done or how bad you think they are. It's transphobia, plain and simple.
Same Popular Trans Blogger: If you think theyfab is a bad thing to call someone, that is proof that you are a theyfab and hate trans women. Even if you don't use they/them pronouns, even if you claim not to be afab, even if you have given no indication of your gender, pronouns, or agab, you are a theyfab, trust me, I can tell.
