whaaaaaaaaaaaaat.
The best way I can articulate how I know trans women are women isβ¦.whenever Iβve met a trans woman Iβd have to work extremely hard to see them as anything other than a woman, ya know? Iβve seen GCs call women βHE!!!β and just thought βyouβve had to try SO hard to do that to herβ.
I think trans women are women in a "try and stop us" kind of way.
im glad someone is matching my schizothread energy
I'm so hecking valid :D
Come on this is a great joke
I am a butchgirl. My mom was a butch and my dad was a girl.
i think trans women are women in a "my dad believes women are inherently stupid and im cooked because my position in the gender hierarchy is tainted by feminization and being policed every hour of my life is hard but i need to reclaim my place as a human before i die" kinda way. if that makes sense.
Do you think trans women are women in a "gender is fake, words mean nothing" way or in a "trans women are women" way.
Depends entirely on their belief. Gender is fake, etc, yes. But also if being emphatically That Gender makes you happy then noone should tell you otherwise.
Sigh.
I'm not trying to make myself happy. I am trying to communicate what my positionality in a patriarchal hierarchy is.
The queer academy and the discourses it's spawned have been such a fucking disaster for (trans)feminism.
Many people seem to only be able to "include" trans women if everyone is welcome, if gender itself ceases to hold any meaning.
I'd like for that to happen, too, but in this world, this patriarchal world, gender subjects trans women to misogyny, womanizes us.
Do you believe that?
they are... not???
Teleological sex. Theological sex. Sex assigned by the Lord at the moment of ensoulment.
