i hate how conservatives (and some „radfems”) frame detransition.
This girl used to be beautiful but now... she’s manly.. she’s strange, she does not fit in, what a tragedy!
i haaaate it.
On top of being incredibly mysoginystic, it does not adress other effects of transition, like health effects, and the things that actually pushed people to transitioning in the first place! It creates more problems than it tries to adress.
Who fucking cares how you look after being on T? I don’t. You have more body hair, a different fat distribution? Great! That’s not the reason people should be critical of transitioning!
I love being an unpleasant hairy little woman. I eat some bread and I laugh loudly. I pet my cat. I apologize to no one. Sometimes I make rude noises.
look at andromache and quynh’s costumes in the old guard. because we should totally talk about it and how these characters aren’t sexualized one bit during the entire film. no breast plates. no thigh high slits. no bare midriffs. just warriors wearing clothes designed to protect them in a fight. clothes that represents their character, their origin, not designed to please the male gaze. this is why we need more women in the industry. the old guard is directed by a black woman, produced by women, and has strong lead female characters. support.
