"autoandrophilia is ripping off transfem oppression"

bzzt incorrect

I'm so glad that y'all are so into Monkey Man and the badass hijra priestess army, but friendly reminder that hijra are NOT trans women. Hijra are their own distinct gender; trans women are women. India has both :)

So many people are so against transmasc headcannons that it is genuinely sad. I have seen so many people accusing trans men of “erasing women” and saying that a trans man existing is somehow less progressive than a cis woman. Saying that every character would just be better if they were a woman. I have also seen a lot of “the only headcannoning that can happen is if it’s a trans woman”, but for the most part I have seen people angry about “erasing cis women”.

My first experience with this was very early in my trans journey, back before I’d realized myself. I had read a book about Peter Pan being a trans man originally called Wendy. It was the first time I had ever seen a trans man represented in media. It felt so right and exciting that I immediately went online (never a good idea) hoping to experience more about the book.

I found two videos about the book, one by a poc trans man saying it was a really good book and that others should read it but not really diving into the themes very much, and the other was by a white nonbinary person that spent the entire video hating on the book. Accusing the author (a trans man) of being a pedophile and of erasing woman, just going on an on about how horrible of a book it was. Adding that any man who liked a trans man was just a pedophile because trans men look like children. I was going through a really rough part of my life, feeling really suicidal and conflicted about being trans. And here was this video destroying the one bit of positivity I had and spouting the very things that had been making me feel so conflicted about being trans in the first place. The very things the world was screaming in my face.

I wonder if I would have figured myself out much sooner if I hadn’t had to experience that.

I'm very, very sorry anon. You didn't deserve to be put through that.

I will say as someone who previously followed genderqueerdykes before shit was brought to my attention like a week ago, I think a lot of people don't know and it's important to like, kindly inform these people of what's going on with actual examples of shit someone has said/done, especially given how rampant baseless accusations towards trans folks of all flavours are. Because some of us may not be following them super closely (as was my case), or may not have been doing so for a super long time, or maybe even are so wrapped up in their own hurt that they need someone else to tell them to take a step back and think.

When I first saw accusations towards genderqueerdykes, it was being misgendered on anon in a very hostile tone and no evidence of any claims was provided, so I immediately went on the defensive and figured it was someone acting in bad faith. When someone else actually responded and provided shit, I was like, shit, this is, uh, horrifically transmisogynyistic, and I'm glad it was brought to my attention, I will be blocking it.

So I think it's best to approach these people, if you feel safe doing so, and provide an explanation + evidence. Some of us are just fr out of the loop.

I feel like there's a decently large group of people in trans discourse who, in my mind, if you still engage with is a little suspicious.

Obviously I know that most people don't always know whats going on, and callouts as a whole suck, you can't possibly know always when someone's a raging transandrophobe or transmisogynist or general bigot. So BOD is important.

But with a few names I feel like it should kind of become public knowledge. People like genderqueerdykes or thicced-witch kind of people.

Like obviously there's nothing wrong with not knowing something.

I'm just saying. Like, don't most people know atp?

discrimination is when sex toys apparently

something that I think might be missing a bit from discussions about transandrophobia (specifically when it comes to saying that it's just transphobia/misogyny, or that the only oppression trans guys face is being erased or infantilised) is that this literally is not the case for a lot of trans guys. transphobes do not see me as a "soft feminine confused stolen daughter", they see me as a predator trying to take their daughters from them. I am harassed and threatened out of the women's restrooms I'm forced in to, they think my testosterone makes me angry and violent, they think I am converting their "daughters" to transgenderism, they think I'm transitioning to perv on their sons. it's important to talk about the harm that invisibility and infantilization causes, but do not act like the oppression that trans men face stops there.

Idk but the idea that trans men commonly enter terf spaces on purpose & then get detransed & indoctrinated into terfism seems way less believable to me than that spaces for cis people will inevitably have some ppl realize they're trans & if the space in question is a radical feminist one, they will be targeted with some absolutely devastatingly horrific abuse that will keep them in the closet & cause them serious harm, & radical feminism like any hateful ideology is very attractive to wounded, traumatized people.
