Tilly Bridgescis woman says a trans woman talking about a trans woman issue is sexist, how dare you
and we get this shit on top of everything else
fedi continues to rep itself incredibly poorly
I am so tired of this bullshit
lez-anya@tillybridges far too many people have taken the idea of intersectionality and inclusivity to mean that every post or statement ever made has to be applicable to everyone otherwise it's bad and wrong.
When, in reality, it just means that more diverse voices need to be listened to on the same level as the voices of those in the majority.
Just wish the world would let trans women talk about trans women without having to add in all sorts of addendums and caveats to avoid upsetting the "but what about *me*?" people.
EF@TheSunnyOne @tillybridges seems people are becoming less willing to listen to others even especially if their opinion differs.

It is so very important [for people] to listen to different voices and opinions and does not mean they need to agree but we need to understand and appreciate others' have different views.
Hopefully 'we' can be civil and respectful to each other in the process and sometimes we learn, tweak our opinion or even confirm our previously held view.
The second we stop listening to others is a sad day and one where we regress and those that solely attack through ignorance or intollerance may already be lost.
