JacquelineI am not a "trans activist".
I am a human being who wants to live life on my own terms.

I hate MRA sympathizing GC pickmes who are more ok with literal fucking men in women's spaces than they are with trans women
Gender Crazed right wing activists are absolutely cool with men going into the women's room to beat up women who "look trans", but they are not cool with me taking a piss, washing my hands, and silently leaving.
GCs make a big fuss about how "trans women go into women's bathrooms to assault women" and other false narratives, but they don't make a fuss about our rapist pedophile president who violates women and girls of every age. They don't make a fuss about draconian abortion bans. They don't make a fuss about the refusal of the government to implement menstrual care policies. They don't make a fuss about how the capitalist system exploits, commodifies, and violates female bodies. They don't care about any real issue that women face.
All they do is single out transgender, transsexual, and intersex women, and hold them to a misogynistic standard that makes them suffer.
GC "lesbians" are more ok with dating a hairy, smelly, buff MAN who happened to have an F on his birth certificate, than they are with dating an actual woman who happened to have an M on her birth certificate
The way I see it, trans men are men (albeit they are natural allies to women due to their experiences in most cases), and trans women like myself are women.
It is absurd to me that I, a trans woman, am lumped into the male category (when I was never accepted by males in the first place, even when I was forced to be one)
It is also absurd to me that trans men are included in the female category and not the male category by many people. Just because they were emasculated as teenagers and forced to wear tutus and shit doesn't make them a woman. It makes them a man with trauma.
Some of the best examples of masculinity in my life are presented by trans masculine individuals, and they are one of the biggest reasons I am not in the "kill all men" camp.
They also taught me that in fact some people don't want to be women. When I was first introduced to trans masculine people, I was knee deep in the closet. I just thought that woman was the better gender, and that I lost the birth lottery and I just had to suck it up. And I could not comprehend the fact that someone assigned female at birth could indeed want to live as a male. It was a catalyst in my transition.
I projected my personal experience onto the people around me, because I had no other frame of reference. Being exposed to the opposite of my experience really jolted me awake
Mel@burnoutqueen interesting. As it seems, people seem to understand that a woman might want to be a man because of the whole patriarchy thing. They might not believe trans guys are men, more like deluded women, but they get why a woman might want to be a man.
I never understood why someone would want to be a woman but again there’s the whole, well misogyny and patriarchy keeping you down on top of the oh, I’m trans.

I've seen a photo similar to this, with the caption: "Hi! I'm just making sure YOUR genitals aren't making ME uncomfortable!"
benny@SrRochardBunson @burnoutqueen what Europeans do: Wonder why they only installed half a door.

stepplAh. For me as European this explains the gap US toilet doors:
Must be an Emergency Exit. Now question arises why one needs an emergency exit when being in the "throne room".🤔
Katrien M Michiels@steppl @SrRochardBunson @burnoutqueen emergency exit and also easier to spot whether a toilet is occupied. You don't have to get on your knees to see some shoes sticking out :)
Mike Torr@kmmich @steppl @SrRochardBunson @burnoutqueen That's what "engaged/vacant" signs on the locks are for 😐
@macronencer @kmmich @steppl @burnoutqueen
Definitely, but let me in on a little USian secret. All of those things cost money, which takes profits from billionaires. If you use less material to make the door, you save the $ on thaf material and the vacant/occupied sign. Did I mention that people's dignity isn't part of the equation?
divVerent@burnoutqueen And to be clear, they knew before the elections what kind of person he is. He literally bragged about entering girls' locker rooms. He admitted it prior to elections, and that is why he is now immune to anything Epstein.
America knowingly and willingly supports even pedos, if they are rich enough. Poor people are who they see as the enemy - but if you are rich, you are allowed to do anything. Even that.
And yet they call themselves "Christian".
