Reblog If You Believe Trans Rights Are Human Rights.

I have seen an uptick in posts from tumblr users in the vein of 'You shouldn't believe any accusations against transwomen!' since the Lily video was released, and on one hand I agree that , especially with transwomen, you should handle it with a grain of salt, but the black and white ideology of it going around has me thinking of victims like you, so I have to ask, as an outspoken victim of an abusive transwoman, what do you feel when you see posts like that? Do you feel unheard or erased when those posts go around?

I understand this is a tricky situation, especially with transwomen, but it genuinely feels like another situation of tumblr throwing away nuance in abusive situations on that basis of an abusers identity.

Tbh this is something that's been an issue the whole time in regards to Lily and a couple of other examples.

On the one hand, I get it. Innocent trans women get a ton of undeserved shit and wild accusations just because of who they are on a regular basis. I understand where the knee-jerk defensiveness and anger comes from.

On the other, when it gets to the point where you're not even willing to look at evidence presented by numerous people making similar allegations of abuse, manipulation, ect, that's a problem. Regardless of what demographic a person falls in, burying your head in the sand and refusing to get the other side of the story, or even worse completely dismissing evidence when you see it, is not protecting the community. On the contrary, it's doing even more harm. Not only does that behavior allow actual predators and abusive people continue to get away with their behavior and victimize more people within the community, to outsiders, they see "the rest" of the community willingly protecting dangerous individuals. Which in turn gives actual bigots ammo to point to and confirm their biases.

Yes, it's true that trans women get falsely accused of things a lot. That's a massive problem. But that doesn't mean all accusations are automatically false. Nobody is immune to being abusive and causing harm.
