[ID: Four panel comic with crudely drawn stick people.
Panel 1: A lime green person with a round head is talking to an olive green person, who has a square head. A grayscale person with a round head is interjecting from the side.
Olive: "So I do actually have a lot of issues with tetraphobia from round head green people. It's an issue I really think should-"
Grayscale: "Haha so true! Round greens are the worst! I hate round greens!"
Panel 2: Zoom in on Olive, looking frustrated. They say:
"No. Disappear."
Panel 3: Zoom on grayscale, who begins talking and continues into the next panel.
"wow okay so this unprovoked hostility is exactly why the chromatic movement is losing popularity every single day. you're lucky i don't become chromophobic now, even though
[the panel cuts off, the grayscale person is still talking while walking away in the next panel]
you have been treating me like this. I used to be an enthusiastic follower of chroma ideology and even said green people are actually green, so i hope you're proud of yourself for alienating your sorely needed allies. i will no longer support you and your chromagenda"
Panel 4: While the above monologue occupies half the panel, a gold person shows up. Olive: "So as I was saying-" Gold: "Hey why are you defending round head green people's tetraphobia? They're not above criticism!" Olive: "I am not doing that." Lime, in small text: "how do you have the stamina for this"

Controversial opinion: Trans women are not "male women".
Hope this helps!
Turbo-nuclear take: "Trans woman" is not a different gender from "cis woman".
Take at which we can achieve nuclear fusion: "woman of color" is also not a different gender from "cis woman".
If women of color are so "masculinized", if we are so Indelibly Associated with Maleness, then why are we hypersexualized and treated as disposable sex objects by a white-hegemonic patriarchal culture? Does our fetishization as "highly submissive" register as particularly male to you? Does the proliferation of beauty industry trends fixated on commodifying our features and making them surgically available to white women seem like we are being distanced from womanhood?
If "trans women face so much pressure to change their bodies", why do clinics stonewall and refuse to prescribe us the treatment we desperately need, and why do doctors UNDER-PRESCRIBE HRT to us, or refuse to cover top surgery for trans women?
Think, Tumblr, think!
I will state, plainly, that this site is so transmisogynistic, even its acceptance of transfemininity is transmisogynistic.
Tumblr hates women. Hates women and womanhood. It views being a woman as boring, un-hip, conformist, regressive, and 'patriarchal' or 'male gaze'.
Every time I see a post that is transfem-positive, it is almost always couched in casting trans women as Male Women, as avatars of gender-ambiguity, as a "masculine womanhood".
Best of both worlds, eh?
You are The Misogyny Site, and even your supposed 'acceptance' of us is poisoned swill.
And you will never unpack or do anything about the rampant transmisogyny on this site for as long as you are dominated by a culture that insists on womanhood as something to abhor and distance yourself from at all costs.

there's something uncomfortable about western millennials/gen z's deep obsession with watering Studio Ghibli movies down into "wholesome bean comfort flicks aesthetic uwu japan" when half of these people completely miss the point of these films and the complex nuanced topics they deal with, especially when it comes to post war Japan.
i don't think these people watched princess mononoke.
i don't think that movie gives me comfort aesthetic vibes. at all.
✨ why does studio Ghibli food look so good ✨
real talk we need to talk about general Americans especially white Americans and how they cannot process or comprehend non white media without watering down its roots tied to its racial background and in turn make it marketable and easier to consume for themselves.
i just posted this Jesus christ 😭 anyway people should see this post addition up top thank you ^^^
You really do have to distinguish between the correct and incorrect use cases of specialized language to avoid going down a weird rabbit hole.
Creepy abusive guy who uses therapy speak for manipulation isn't an indictment of therapy speak in its intended usage, where it provides tools to process and improve on thought patterns which are otherwise harmful to the patient.
Weirdo reactionary pseudofeminist who thinks turning a penis into a vagina is a reification of patriarchy because their "boundaries" extend into strangers' bodies is not an argument against the correct application of feminist theory.
Guy who thinks "amab = penis" and "afab = uterus" and spins bioessentialist nonsense from that starting point only makes it more important to center that birth gender assignment is a political and social power structure rather than an accurate reflection of biology.
When you're in obscure online spaces a lot it's probable that you'll see misuse of terms more than you see the correct usage just because you have a higher rate of encounters with malicious and/or clueless people. That does not mean the terms are bad, it means you're on the website that made the skinny capitalist guy from the Lorax movie into an avatar of multiversal selfcest through telephone games.

"what if a dangerous man pretends to be trans to-" what if we actually dealt with the underlying causes of dangerous men. what if predators faced real consequences more often. what if you stopped using trans women as a proxy for your grievances with liberal feminism's individualist denial of the need to fight systemic issues.
what if you stopped assigning blame for patriarchy's evils to one of its more vulnerable victim groups.
Every TERF response to this is just "well what if I victim blame anyway though"
Fascists LARPing as a misogynist's caricature of a feminist.

it’s crazy how offended ostensible allies get when you point out that a lot of transphobia is obviously psychosexual in nature. like most transphobia is rooted in imagining a trans person doing something sexual. “imagining a trans person doing something sexual” has a ton of political efficacy in the United States, they make ads and attacks where the whole point is to freak people out by telling them to imagine a trans person doing something sexual. all of these are perverse sexual fantasies, by definition. like….what are people even trying to argue about
Being honest about how bad right wing policy really is makes people upset, we're not supposed to say that a Political Viewpoint is completely illegitimate like that

[ID: Four panel comic with crudely drawn stick people.
Panel 1: A blood orange person is putting a sheet of paper down on a table.
B.O.: "I have assembled a reading list for people interested in learning about chromatic issues. It's got a variety of authors from across the spectrum: Red, yellow, cyan, blue, magenta, nonprimar, shrimp colours, achromatic, even non-electromagetic!"
Panel 2: A turquoise person inspects the list.
Panel 3: They look up while lowering the list again.
Turquoise: "…Green?"
B.O.: "Not a creative color, not necessary."
Panel 4: A view of the two on opposite sides of the table.
Turquoise: "I… Don't think that's true? I've been reading a lot of interesting stuff about viridic populations in the toroidal inwards and-"
B.O.: "Yeah nonprimary issues are covered."
Turquoise: "No like. Primary green."
B.O.: "That's a colonialist construct. Get more enlightened please."
