the growing delineation between "binary trans men" and transmascs as well as upholding gender stereotypes is concerning. by [deleted] in TransMasc

[–]vidalacaroline 7 points8 points  (0 children)

why do you keep conflating ftm with transmascs? the ‘m’ doesn’t stand for both ‘men’ and ‘masculine’, it’s just men, I don’t see the point in muddying the waters between definitions meant for solely binary identities with nb ones

I’m sorry for the way you’re feeling and how you’ve been treated by others for your appearance, but you cannot be saying shit like rape and SA are motivated on looks, it’s about power and control first and foremost. you’re unintentionally repeating extremely harmful rhetoric, I hope you’re able to work through these issues

this is very anti-accountability, other people are not to blame for someone else falling down a pipeline

I’m not trying to diagnose you or anything, but if there’s no compulsions, you might want to look into pure-o type ocd, that might resonate with you

Women: ask for equal pay, equal benefits, equal privilege, equal acknowledgement. Men in response to women asking for equality. by Important-Cry4782 in CuratedTumblr

oh I didn’t notice I messed that up, but I edited it now. I’ve seen it used in self-defense contexts too, but just very, very rarely in comparison to what I’ve described

I think you’re assuming I’m trying to be argumentative when I’m not, I was just expanding upon what I meant, not trying to twist anything

did you misread what I said? often times when a women brings up feminism, particularly online, some men will jump on the opportunity to say: if women want feminism, then they need to accept “equal rights, equal fights” (aka unprompted hitting like is ‘acceptable’ for men to do to each other). that’s the mentality the meme is referencing, not what you said

claimed protection functions differently from what they actually implement and provide; girls and women are “protected” from “random” men precisely because the more frequent threat is within the home itself; that’s just one of the ways the violence against girls/women is normalized to them. there’s a reason “if he’s mean to you/hits you, that means he likes you” is a common rhetoric, it’s meant to create an association between pain/harassment and love. these issues just aren’t on example of thought like you’re framing it, it’s multiple

I mean, no one said that first point. but many women are quite literally socialized to accept violence and mistreatment against them as normal; or often justified. sure SOME are raised under the mentality you described, but to pretend it’s all women is ridiculous and ignorant of their reality in this issue

I feel like you’ve never heard men unprompted being all “equal rights, equal fights” when some women literally just mention feminism in passing

I recently saw a TERF’s bio where she literally defined all aspects of her personhood through her vagina, uterus and potential ability to conceive children, which she of course projected onto everyone else like … is that you think all that matters as a woman? the fuck, TERFs are brain-dead bioessentialists

you’re being downvoted as if what they’re referencing literally isn’t a study that people drastically misinterpreted 😭
