Saw a post a bit ago that was like "Is it just me or is like every intersex blogger really angry all the time, who pissed in your cereal bro?"
Wow I fucking wonder why we're pissed off. Really. No idea. I wonder if it has to do with having to deal with
Being systematically mutilated legally
If you weren't mutilated, almost nobody has a body like yours
You can't research how your sex organs & hormones function without seeing baby surgery gore and reports of how everybody like you was "fixed"
Having the US president declare us nonexistent
Being told we're freaks all our life and we need fixing
Have a long history of being killed at birth
Slurs for you literally fucking everywhere including in a scientific context and if you point it out people call you dramatic
More slurs for you if you ever dare to try to look at adult material
Any and all fiction that is listed as intersex is all stereotypes and obvious fetish material for perisex people - There is almost no representation.
Whenever you hear about people like you they're referred to as having a sex disorder, never being intersex
People who support the entire framework of your excising and mutilation go in your comments to concern troll about how they don't actually support that
Having almost no research done into our oppression — so there is a lack of statistics about systemic intersex assault/rape/murder — people use this to tell you it isn't happening (despite nearly every intersex person you've met has reported being victimized in some way)
Strangers online think they are entitled to your full medical history
A significant number of people online think you are a porn trope and are shocked to find out tou exist in real life
Your gender identity is erased and ignored because it doesn't make sense to perisex people
You are reduced to a discourse topic
Being considered "rare" (because we are actively being suppressed with violence) — people use that "rarity" to say you don't matter
People thinking its acceptable to sexually harass you and ask you about your genitals just because they find out you're intersex
Getting told that you're exaggerating when you say your group has been the victim of a successful extermination campaign — & that is why we are so invisible
Everyone ignores all of this ^ and tells you that someone else has it worse than you so you should shut up if you ever decide to speak up.
Wow. I wonder.
Heart attacks symptoms are different for women. I recently learned this.
I can NOT fucking believe i am watching this shit happen in real time.
Overnight I've watched the wiki page for 4B go from a single line of text describing it as a feminist movement and four more lines beneath it explaining the rules, to now it being a several paragraph screed about how it is a terf riddled, transphobic, transwomen hating movement made intentionally and with the sole purpose to stop women from having sex with transwomen.
The article editing history shows this all being done overnight. It also shows it mostly being done by a single user who INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH has been flagged multiple times for getting into editing wars on the CIRCUMCISION and FORESKIN wiki pages!!!! You cannot make this shit up!!
American women only briefly floated the idea that they shouldn't have sex with anyone that can get them pregnant in a time where pregnancy could be a death sentence and like fucking LIGHTNING these folks come out the gate to shut it down in every way possible.
Hey, I just wanted to say I can't imagine how hard it is growing up in middle school nowadays. I'm only a few years older than you but I know it was tough with the things that I went through when I was 13. Boys were all watching pornography and talked about it openly, they all called the girls sluts and whores even though pretty much none of them had slept with anybody yet. Creators like Andrew Tate and far right men didn't have the grasp on boys like they do now so those types of views weren't as widespread so I imagine you have to deal with those types of things much more and have to hear about it too and I think it must be so difficult to hear about at such a young age. When I was your age I was already concerned with being seen as a slut, nevermind other things like tradwife bs too.
I just hope you stay super safe, keep your head high and know that you are super worthy and try to not let any of the boys and girls in your life get you down. Make sure to take breaks from the internet if you need to, everywhere can be so negative. You don't have to be reduced to any stereotypes, you are literally only on the VERY start of the journey to discovering who you are as a person, and don't let negativity online or offline take that away from you <3
thank you so much <333 misogyny in schools is basically a universal experience for young girls its so sad, thank you for sharing your experience :))
anyone who thinks the 'male loneliness epidemic' is anything but a result of their own actions is literally a joke
males have literally made huge bit out of the idea of lying about being a male feminist/caring about womyns issues to coerce womyn into thinking they care about us and letting them have sex with us. idc if im being dramatic and its just a joke, its such a reflection of real life and they dont even know!
most men dont care about womyns issues. they never have, and they will. theres a very small percentage of men who are actually decent and womyn dont have to endanger themselves with toxic relationships just to find them.
It's a good thing people can grow out of hate. I hope one day you look back on your bigotry in shame and choose to be a kinder, better person
tell that to the tras sending me death threats lololol
consent accident ☠️ jesus christ what is he? a child?
Notice how tumblr users were delighted at conservatives "showing class consciousness" regarding the ceo shooting and regularly praise misogynists and even rapists for their pro-trans statement, but are awfully upset when they find out they agree in any capacity with those they label "terfs".
im not pro-cop but i think the fact that even cop supporters stereotype female cops as aggressive is stupid. of course the few womyn in such a traditionally and stereotypically male dominated workfield would have to be aggressive, no one takes them seriously! they're oversexualized, belittled, and assaulted just for being womyn. anyone would be aggressive, theyre just trying to prove themselves.
same thing with non-binary womyn. wanting to escape womynhood is so SO normal but basically no one in our world understands being a womyn means nothing but being an adult human female. not conforming to sexist assumptions and stereotypes doesnt make you not a womyn
I wonder if women who identify as men see males as the "basic, default person" in a way. TIFs dysphoria sometimes begins with discomfort toward their breasts because they've been sexualized, or the trauma inherent in puberty and getting their period, or the expectation to wear makeup or objectifying clothing - and then they think, "Well, men don't have breasts or periods. They don't have to wear makeup or clothes like that."
I wonder if it's less about truly "feeling like a male" and more about seeing the male as the standard person who does not have all these additional problems and expectations and identifying with that.
shout out to confident conventionally unattractive womyn. literally never let a mans lack of attraction to you define your worth. ugly men are allowed to be confident and not shamed for it, and so are we!
