I was raised in part by who identified as radical . By radical they meant advocating for the first battered women’s shelters and the like mostly (ie not dogmatists). The next gen of feminists smeared them as not being as into as they should be. These gatekeepers really destroyed the nature of this . I didn’t really challenge these power but knew they had it at least partly wrong and that they were more out of touch.

Reminder that is a misnomer: there can be no such thing as a "trans exclusionary ", because by nature cannot exclude any expression of or lack thereof.

The more accurate acronym is : "Feminism Appropriating ", because in reality, these are not , but transphobes appropriating feminism.

Goh, blijkbaar is vrouwelijk gefluit ook een daad van verzet geweest. Ik leer elke dag weer wat bij.

" will never be until stop having strong emotions about . Like we, as a , have got to stop caring about dicks! have to stop , , but they also have to stop symbolizing , , agency and , , and even itself. Like trans women can’t be free if the very conceptual presence of a penis represents an intrusion(!) of unwanted(!) sexuality(!) in public life. Like that’s why trans women are abhorrent to both and , both groups have extremely strong feelings about what a penis *represents*, and find the conceptual and actual presence of a woman with a penis to be simultaneously vile and nonsensical because they’ve loaded so much symbolic baggage onto both women and penises.

Anyway dicks are totally neutral parts and seeing a dick, or a bulge in a swimsuit, or simply knowing that there’s a dick somewhere in the same bathroom as you isn’t harmful or violent"

I went on a date recently and something my date said bothered me very much: He talked about his mother lovingly, praising her incessantly while in the same breath, speaking of an ex-girlfriend, whom he had admitted to putting his hands on her neck to choke her out of rage. The quickness to revisit a past relationship with a new person (me) then admitting to violence, I quickly became repelled. How could a person speak so kindly about his mother then in turn talk about harming other women... I couldn't help but think of the character of Mr.Bates from the classic thriller Psycho, who seemed to adore his mother, but commit harm and murder on his female motel guests.

Taking a page from the below book, it made complete sense, but also the cycles of abuse perpetuated socially in a nuclear family-centric society that often punches down, continuing the legacy of trauma. Domestic violence is never okay, but societal violence norms aren't either. Further evidence patriarchy is harm and we all need to be
