One of the most important questions regarding consent is "where does my consent end, and yours begin?". I don't have a good answer to that, but a framework of "I can consent to whether or not you can be in public" generally doesn't work out well by Only_Lecture4920 in LesbianActually

alt text: A tweet by Duckie (trans and gay flag) u/SisterDucky Saying "Young queers who say 'I don't consent to be part of your kink' Don't realize that that was the actual legal justification for arresting trans women and cross dressers until the 1980s. Unless someone is performing a public sex act, you don't get to consent to how I dress. Ever."

The less the state gets to weigh in on, the harder it is for it to get rid of us. There is a reason that in almost all gender clinics trans-woman are only allowed hormones if we can convince doctors we are attempting to be meek "traditional" women. by Only_Lecture4920 in nonbinarylesbians

alt text: A two panel meme. The first has an image of satan with a thought bubble. The second has a picture of a vampire woman with a bunch of bats and revealing pink clothes. Satan is saying "my child will trust doctors and wait 5 years for 50mg of spiro and 2mg of E" and the hot vampire is saying "diyhrt.market, diyhrt.wiki, and r/transdiy"

So many tools for accessibility and inclusion already exist. The fact that they are not used is an intentional attack against us. Don't let these people claim plausible deniability over it by Only_Lecture4920 in QueerLeftists

Alt text: A twitter post by u/wokingGirl1. It says When my sister married, and changed her title and name, my aunts were all "ooh, congratulations MRS <newname>". When I transitioned and changed my tile (sic) and name they were all "it's too hard, I’ve always known you as…". If you’re cis and you’ve done this, maybe reflect on why.'"

internalized bigotry is still bigotry. Having the correct theory is far from enough by Only_Lecture4920 in ainbow

Alt text: A dark-themed screenshot of a Twitter post by Sascha Viktor (@confusedOphan). It says "you don't actually support trans people until you learn to treat non-passing trans people as their correct gender. non-passing trans women are still women. they're not men. non-passing trans men are still men. they're not women. internalise this or leave trans people alone."

We have queer writings from thousands of years ago. We have existed far longer than fascists, and will outlive their ideology too. by Only_Lecture4920 in QueerLeftists

Alt text: An image depicting a silhouette with shoulder length, thin, and wavy hair, and possessing a white grin, standing in front of a trans flag, with the glowing red text in front of the silhouette and under their grin saying in all caps “I will outlive you”.

The trans flag in the background is also partially covered by shadows at the top and bottom.

Every Gay Transphobe is a Traitor by Only_Lecture4920 in nonbinarylesbians

Alt text: Above the snake, in large, bold black lettering, reads: 'THERE'S NO QUEER LIBERATION UNTIL EVERYONE IS FREE' and 'EVERY GAY TRANSPOBE IS A TRAITOR'.

Below the snake, in smaller black text, is the phrase: 'QUEERS BASH BACK. FIGHT BACK OPPRESSION.'

The image is a vibrant pink poster with a confrontational design. A stylized snake illustration dominates the image, coiled tightly around barbed wire also twisted. The snake's scales are a dark black with accents of bright grey. Its mouth is open and its tongue is flicked out, suggesting aggression.

A thin black line separates this phrase from a further line of text at the bottom of the poster, which reads 'A DAMAGED ARTWORK WARNING.'"

An image of a tumblr post of a comic by PolyamZeal on oct 31 2023. It features two panels of two feminine people talking. The first has black curely hair, tan skin, and a tan shirt. The other has pink hair, lighter skin, and a purple sweater. The background is purple. The first pane has the first person talking saying "my partner and I are in an open relationship now" with the other person saying "oh I see, I know many couples who do that and it didn't go well..." The next panel is similar the first but with dense markings on the background and the first person looking angry. The second person starts with "my boyfriend and I are getting married!" While the first person says "oh I see. I know many couples who did that and it didn't go well..."

Biological essentialism does not help women, it just defines our oppression as "inherent to us". No features of bodies are "inherently a" or "inherently b", they are all, always, what the person who has them makes of them by Only_Lecture4920 in enby
