hi, intersex trans women here. I am biologically female no matter my fucking genitals.

If you were biologically female you wouldn’t be trans. 

Unless, in your world, can a female (AFAB) person identify as a trans woman? If you’re both supposedly female, she could, right? I mean, if biological sex isn’t real, what is the use of the ‘trans’ qualifier? What does ‘trans’ say if you’re actually just female? If your body is the exact same as an AFAB body, why make the distinction? 

The only way any of the trans shit works is if you use these definitions, which as far as I recall were, in fact, the definitions used not more than five years ago: 

Woman: adult human female

Man: adult human male

Trans Woman: adult human male who identifies with whatever they consider the ‘woman’ gender. Unclear what ‘identifying as a woman’ entails. 

Trans Man: adult human female who identifies with whatever they consider the ‘man’ gender. Unclear what ‘identifying as a man’ entails.

Also, since they mention intersex, I’m gonna tag @inferior-mirage in if she wants to respond to that portion of this. 

{Side note, I’m still looking for someone to take this blog over since I’ve realized I’m not bi. I’m only answering this because I’m bored lmao}

Hey gang, sorry I haven’t been on here lately. I’ve been dealing with some self discovery stuff, and have realized that I’m actually not bisexual. 

I still believe in the stuff I’ve posted here, so I’m gonna keep it up, but I’m moving it over to my account that just saves urls for me and won’t be responding to anything on here. 

I’ll check it once in a while, though, so if another gender critical bisexual wants to take over the url, please message me and lemme know. Thanks!

There’s also @febfems and @bi-women-confess 😊

hello. can i ask if you know of any bisexual / female-centric bisexual positivity blogs on tumblr? i follow a lot of lesbian positivity blogs to learn about radfeminism & the lesbian experience, but as i'm a bisexual woman i don't want to invade lesbian spaces by asking questions pertaining to bisexuality. hope it's okay to ask you! :)

@les-bi-anity is a lovely blog (though i don’t know if you’re female-exclusive).. there’s also @biosex-bisexuality nd @wimminwomynwomon ! if any followers have other suggestions that’d be great too 💖 sorry this is so terribly late, i’ve been ridiculously busy n tired ah

1) hi i'm anon from weeks ago that was saying i fear for gay people in the future because of the discourse on tumblr. When you said there will be pushback and your starting to see it i thought you were just being idealistic and too optimistic. however i just saw a post by a popular tumblr user (not a libfem but seems far left ) who always seemed to avoid the whole disguised conversion therapy thing say explicity that anyone trying to tell you not to have boundries when it came to genitals is

2) contributing to rape culture. I was in shock and i was also shoked that when i looked into the comments i didn't immediatly see so much hate (admittidly though i didn't look for that long but that in and of itself is an improvment). I'm happy and i regret never believing you. but i'm still sad that other people can get away with saying things radical feminist have been saying for years and barely get hate.

Yeah, I understand it seeming over optimistic! I just am trying to see the cracks in the libfem world and hoping they get bigger. I’ve also noticed that there seems to be an uptick in what is causing women to have their peak libfem/peak trans. There’s been a few large events that have caused it, and more women speaking out on it. The more we do, the more likely people who are just kind of moderately pro trans (those that casually support the concept but don’t really understand everything they advocate) are realizing that they don’t have all the information. 

That’s great that those kinds of perspectives are becoming more common! And yeah, it does suck that they aren’t getting the hate that radical feminists have been getting for saying it. But, that’s the way it’s always been. Women and other oppressed groups say something, they get hated and shut down, they keep saying it and convince more and more people, and then suddenly it’s an OK thing to believe and advocate for. It’s frustrating, sure, but such is the path to change. First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, and then you win. Right now we’re teetering between the fight step and the winning step. The more we see these types of things being said outside our circles and not getting laughed at or fought, the closer we are to winning.

I find it funny how insanely focused libfems/genderists/transactivists are about their hatred for ‘TERFS’, constantly making posts about how they wish we were all dead and how horrible we are.

I think one reason for this is that we have genuine arguments. Radical feminism has a historical and logical foundation, it is based in reason, facts, and science. If it wasn’t, it wouldn’t ~invalidate~ them so much and threaten their belief system so severely. If it wasn’t, they wouldn’t have to make up lies about us being murderers and make sure all their members block and don’t engage with any of us. 

I kinda compare it to how I feel about MRA’s. I profoundly disagree with them on everything and think they’re annoying af, but at the end of the day they have  no real argument, no real factual basis for the things they say.. so I don’t pay attention to them. I don’t go around making sure everyone blocks them, dedicating my blog to hating on them. They are no threat to me, or my beliefs, or radical feminism as a whole. 

We, on the other hand, are a threat to their sexist delusions. Why else would you be that enraged?

When I identified as trans if you had told me that transition would never really make me the opposite sex, I would have responded “Yeah, I know, but I have dysphoria and this is the best way I can deal with it.”  I think most people back then would have said the same thing.  But somewhere around 2012, trans people who still had some connection to reality got labeled truscum and now we’re left with this mess

[biosex-bisexuality-blog]

Honestly, some of these bisexual women are ruining everything. You would think they would support exclusively same sex attracted gay and lesbian people but it just seems like they're throwing us under the bus but I'm not even surprised. I've talked to so many older lesbians and they're not surprised either and apparently these issues aren't new but the difference between the older generation of gays the newer generation is that they weren't weak enough to fall of all this shit.

I wouldn’t say it is exclusively bi women doing this (plenty of straight people are to blame here), but it is hard when bi people don’t seem to understand how they might be perpetuating homophobia as well. It’s like the people making the “let bi girls date boys” posts or saying we need just as much representation of bi women in straight relationships–I personally think that society does a fine job telling women and girls constantly that they should be with men and that both lesbians and bi girls need more celebration of women in loving relationships. Pride should be about same-sex love, and that does mean centering the experiences of gay and lesbian people while also celebrating bi people in same-sex relationships and pride about attraction. 

At a party this year a straight man was tearing up about this being the first year the march felt about “just celebrating love, for everyone”. I could not have rolled my eyes any harder. Pride events are not about “love for everyone”. Stuff like the parade–I don’t mind if straight people feel like they can be guests there, honestly. But feeling included? Feeling centered? It sounds to me like people feeling entitled. 

I don’t think that it meant that older generations were stronger, however. I think that we paid a big price for greater acceptance. Somewhere down the line, our oppression became “cool” and it became a fun toy for people to try to play with. And in our deep want for rights and acceptance, we tried to meet inclusion with inclusion. But what that means is that we have pride parades paid for by Bank of America and floats for BP and vodka companies putting rainbow flags on bottles for sales. Whether we sold out or they bought us out is up for debate, but pride can seem as much about being gay as St Patrick’s Day feels about being Irish.

At this point, an honest straight ally is easier to be around than someone who identifies themselves as “queer”. That label stands for fetishizing oppression, constant compromise, and inclusion to the point of nothingness.

hi! are you mtf trans? how come you are gender critical? i saw one of your tags and it said "trans critical", could you explain how you reason? only if it's OK! have a good day!!

Hi,So yes, I am a transsexual woman; this means I suffer from body dysphoria based on my body’s sexed characteristics. It means that in order to cope with this dysphoria, I have chosen to medically transition. I am, however, gender critical and critical of the concept of transgenderism. Why? Well for several reasons.

1. The concept of being transgender relies on the idea of gender identity; aka you are what you identify as. However, no one has ever been able to explain to me what that means without relying on sexist gender roles, such as women being feminine, and mean being masculine. The idea of being transgender perpetuates sexist ideas that men and women are innately one way.

2. Gender is not a cornucopia of identities or ways of describing yourself: to quote one lovely post that i have seen circulate on this website, it is a violent system of power relations. It is these two boxes, masculine and feminine, that are not innate, but are forced onto people. Now, males are given immediate privilege from birth, because they are born into a society that celebrates their forced gender box. Women experience horrific violence, serious disadvantages, rampant sexism, and more, purely for being female; the feminine gender they are forced to adhere to further worsens this, as society looks down on femininity. It also punishes females who stray from this gender box. In short, gender was created to oppress and hurt women.

3. So, the issue is that the trans movement perpetuates these ideas within itself. It says to anyone who strays from the opposite gender that they are trans; that they are clearly a man or woman if they dare to stray from their gender box. This is a huge problem, because it both embraces misogyny and completely shits all over all GNC people who are comfortable with their bodies and sexed characteristics, but simply don’t adhere to gender.

4. The trans movement also ignores biological reality; it acts as though if you are mtf trans, you are automatically female and have always been such. It ignores biological reality. Humans are sexually dimorphic; you are either male or female internally, regardless of external appearance. (This is also true of intersex people; regardless of whether or not they have ambiguous genitalia or appearances they are biologically male or female.) The transgender movement ignores all this and acts like the idea of brain sex exists; that some brains are innately male and others are innately female. They also use intersex people as a trump card and pawn to try to prove a third sex exists (it doesn’t). Indeed, this is again misogyny.

5. Lastly, the trans movement ignores the past. It allows people who have been male for most of their life to become “automatically female.” However, that is not the case. I have identified as a transsexual person since age 11; i have felt dysphoria since age 4. However, regardless of my identity, i was perceived by society as male. I experienced male privilege; i was socialized to be taught and believe male ideas. These include: the idea that it is okay for me to be violent, for me to speak up, and that I am entitles to sex. I may have experienced oppression for my attraction to males and my GNC tendencies, but is as perceived as male. Likewise, regardless of how hard i work to fight my male socialization, I still experienced it and have moments where i can feel it rise up in me. And, I have only recently started being perceived as female by observers; to say i have always been female is just a lie.

In conclusion, I would like to say to all the trans people who have read this: do not think for a minute i do not respect you. I love and feel for all my transsexual brothers and sisters. However, I think it is important to acknowledge the errors within our movement, and work together to eliminate those. This is why I am trans critical. I hope that helps.(PS I am very prone to typos so if anyone notices one please tell me!)

#tbh if every trans person was like this we wouldn't have any issue and we could all live in harmony

When we say that cotton ceiling rhetoric forces lesbians to accept penises into their sex lives, we aren’t saying that all of you who support it are physically forcing us to do this. This isn’t what we’re accusing you of, and arguing this point intentionally obscures the issue.

We’re saying that the cotton ceiling and all it’s supporters gives lesbians one of two options:

A) Accept sex that we don’t want to be having, or

B) Be shunned, outcast, and witch-hunted by our community

How do you think those options look from our point of view? I get many anon and non-anon asks from young lesbians who think they’re horrible people for being lesbians. For being penis-repulsed or just plain not attracted to male biology. I get asks from terrified younger lesbians who feel completely unwanted by the LGBT community, and who would rather label themselves anything but lesbian for fear of the backlash.

THIS is the fault of all of you who support the rhetoric that the cotton-ceiling puts forth. You might not be physically forcing anyone to do anything, but we never accused you of that. We’re accusing you of emotionally blackmailing lesbians for being born the way we were. We are accusing you of using using coercion to ensure that we behave the way you want us to. We’re accusing you of perpetuating rape dialog and rape apology. Because at the end of the day that’s all the cotton ceiling is.

To all my lesbian sisters out there: you are not hateful or bad for loving women and only women. There is nothing wrong with only wanting to be with someone of your own sex. You don’t need to modify yourself or diminish who you are for anybody else. You are already enough and there is nothing wrong with you.

½ of me: i should make it more obvious that i want trans people to have access to healthcare and safety, and just bc i believe in sex based oppression doesnt mean i hate trans people or want them to die. i just want people on this site to acknowledge that misogyny and biology are real and stop thinking radfems are evil.

other ½: the fact that libfems refuse to listen to anything we say and completely strawman all our arguments & demonize us means that they dont deserve this pandering from me. plus, im not going to renounce the idea that trans women are male and males are violent towards females as a whole, bc thats essentially the same as saying “not all men are rapists”; a true statement, but one which is derailing and unnecessary to feminist discussion

[biosex-bisexuality-blog]

radical feminist beliefs: innate gender does not exist. the way that gender is enforced in society is the foundation of the patriarchy and is the reason for the oppression and subjugation of women. the imposition of gender roles are important to feminist discussion not because we agree with their existence but because they are so often overlooked by liberal feminism, leading to situations such as the criticism of make-up and beauty standards being branded ‘anti-feminist’. without gender, people of any biological sex could behave how they please without being victimised for their non-conformity

Conservatives: “Pray away the gay”

Queer Theory Gender People: “Try harder to unlearn your cissexist genital fetishization”

[biosex-bisexuality-blog]

Ok but real talk, why do they hate the idea of political lesbianism? I thought that'd be right up their ally??? Its literally identifying as something you categorically are not cuz you FEEL like it. That's their THING. Why do they hate it lmao

Please make sure you always use sex instead of gender when you talk about your sexuality. And if anyone "corrects" you...

You: Um well conservatives use the term same sex attracted in conversion therapy.

Me: then could it be that attraction to the same sex is why they hate us? Could it be same sex attraction they are trying to stop?

You: uhhh no silly they hate you cause of same gender attraction.
