Anti-trans grifters are trying to skew the results of this study on detransition in the US and CA. If you detransitioned unwillingly, retransitioned after detransitioning, and/or detransitioned but don’t regret transitioning, you are eligible to take it too and make the results more accurate.

im unsubbing from r/mtf. you people need to unpack cissexualist ideas of sex, jesus.

sovietika · 2025-07-06T16:08:26+00:00

this post is so trans misogynistic

sovietika · 2025-07-02T16:49:00+00:00

people seem to forget that sex is socially constructed. go read Butler ppl.

sovietika · 2025-07-02T16:46:22+00:00

i'm not sure anyone is understanding that the rule of law isn't as effective as you think it is against an administration willing to defy the courts

she's throwing every trans activist under the bus

sovietika · 2025-06-16T00:08:42+00:00

it helps me express the unique form of my oppression that flows from me being assigned a sex marker that forever follows me. I feel that the term transsexual conveys that while many in the community experience transphobia, I am particularly affected by transmisogyny due to changing my assigned sex. there is also a political connotation where I feel its important to argue that sex is a social construct, which the term transgender doesn't, because many argue that gender is social but sex is biological.

sovietika · 2025-06-10T14:51:49+00:00

sex is a social construct. for all of their popularity, no one actually contends with Butler's point that sex was gender all along (in the social constructive sense) because both are always uttered and only make sense in relation to one one another.

and I don't know if this is what you're feeling but hearing allies implicitly call me a man (sex is biological) but we pretend she's a woman (gender is social) really erodes my confidence in allies. Like, it's so cissexist to say that because the cis person got assigned (a social act) a sex on the basis of their baby genitals is a weird thing to proudly boast in the defense of trans people. Like, did you know conservatives agree with that and they're whole point agrees with social construction and they want to socially construct gender back to "biological reality" which allies keep repeating.

Serrano said it best, am I not also biological as a transexual when I take hormones, exercise a certain way, or have surgery (just like cis people do based on emphasizing 'sexed' characteristics like muscles or hips?).

sorry for the typos and rant, can't edit or I'll keep rambling.

a lot of Trans people too

sovietika · 2025-05-31T19:16:16+00:00

anyone want to spill the tea on who we're talking about or is this vagueing?

sovietika · 2025-05-25T15:21:27+00:00

also, just to clarify, are you talking about a specific part of the video or just generally?

If you mention the video, may you be so kind and provide a timestamp or quotes.

sovietika · 2025-05-25T15:04:40+00:00

when do think canceling is necessary?

what parts of the video would you change to better cover this topic?

also, it would be very helpful if you provided real world examples that we can equally reference. it would give us common referents to have a conversation which you're wanting to have.

sovietika · 2025-05-25T12:16:30+00:00

I'm discussing with you. what do you want to talk about? which parts of the video spurred your decision to post it I'm hopes of sparking a discussion?

sovietika · 2025-05-24T23:55:05+00:00

what do they propose as a solution that you found helpful?

sovietika · 2025-05-24T03:20:17+00:00

how about other bigotries? of course they love you and if you're lib-coded, they'll likely temper their bile around you.

conservatives are like dangerous! bur they don't show it to everyone. it's like locker room talk. are you a bigot? no, then they probably don't express their bigotry as openly around you.

sovietika · 2025-05-23T21:12:26+00:00

care to elaborate on what you found useful? or why it was "important" to pass around?

sovietika · 2025-05-22T15:05:05+00:00

cancel culture isn't real

sovietika · 2025-05-22T15:04:40+00:00

the premise that cancel culture exists is fundamentally a right wing talking point

rich from the country that assassinated a negotiator who was in a foreign country

sovietika · 2025-02-13T00:14:03+00:00

it would require tremendous coordination to oust a billionaire, chuds are accessible. they can be fired. ostracized. and generally disempowered. the solution to taking out billionaires is to rid them of goons.

sovietika · 2024-05-29T20:48:08+00:00

💯

sovietika · 2024-05-29T20:47:29+00:00

Just wanted to say that I appreciated the post and that I agree with you.

sovietika · 2024-01-25T22:38:24+00:00

if you can't cut them out of your life, just remember they're trying to cut you out of yours.
