Trigger warning: my opinion

I will forever say that the transgender ideology is a cult.

It's acts just like one, it recruits young, impressionable and insecure teenagers. 

It has an appeal to youth because it acts in the same way as what being goth was, however this is far more dangerous. 

There is nothing punk about the belief in gender and upholding gender stereotypes.

The whole belief that one can change their sex is not founded in reality and it is not possible. 

This cult will go to crazy lengths to try and gaslight you into thinking otherwise. 

They will use the "gender is a spectrum" argument, they will say that they « feel as though they are of the opposite sex» 

And that’s where they are WRONG

Being female or male is not a state of feeling 

Being female or male is a state of being

And having to explain simple biology over and over makes you feel like you are going mad.

And if you read more into the ideology it just gets more psychotic. 

I think we need to stop selling this lie to people who are not secure within themselves that they can change their sex. 

That they can pump hormone drugs into their bodies for the rest of their lives or go through painful mutilating surgery to create the appearance of the opposite genitalia. 

Which most of the time doesn’t change their attitude they still feel miserable, hm I wonder why? Maybe because they have other mental issues that no one wants to pay attention to. 

Shall we start treating body dysmorphic people with plastic surgery? Fixing everything they THINK is wrong with them? Is that how we are gonna start caring for our people, with encouragement and enabling bad behavior instead with what we have always done like therapy and counseling?

I am just amazed at how little time it took for a dangerous belief like this to become so mainstream and brainwash everyday people. 

Most people today act like nazis under the regime, they can’t voice their true opinions on topics such as whether a man can become a woman. It’s just pathetic. But that’s the world we live in today, truth hurts so much that you’re not even allowed to say it, fuck that you’re getting imprisoned for saying it and you’ll be taught HOW to THINK because remember you’re the BIGOT! 

This is just the beginning, sooner or later they will want you to accept everything under the sun with persuasive language, with threats and more.

sometimes i just brood about how i can't walk around shirtless in public, which is such a simple privilege males have over females that really shouldn't mean much. however, it's impossible for me to rebel against this expectation on my own; the reason i don't just say "fuck it" and walk out shirtless is because i would become a sexual object to every man i see. the intent i had would be hijacked by the male gaze, if that makes sense.

i also see this hijacking thing happen with sexual liberation, where women were/are trying to reclaim their agency and right to have sed with whoever, but many men don't see it like that. they just see women they can have sex with, and the meaning is lost on them.

this observation has always frustrated me and it just sucks that you can see the pattern in a lot of aspects of feminism, where men will pick out parts that benefit them and THEN support those parts for their own benefit.

Thinking about Maria MacLachlan's (PeakTrans) latest video and how she excellently described the process of a feminist left-wing women (like JK Rowling) becoming critical of the trans movement.

At first, you are basically in what she called a 'blissful ignorance'. Your opinion of the trans movement is "live and let others live". Then you start to notice little things that are just plain wrong, like men stealing trophies from women and lesbians being told they are not allowed to tell on a dating app that they are into females only.

So you decide to voice your opinion. You say something like, "I have nothing against trans people who just want to live their lives, but i find this [particular thing] harmful and unfair". You are assuming and fully expecting in your blissful ignorance, nothing more from it. Maybe a bit of debate, but mostly understanding since all these points you made are good points after all, and this is the self-proclaimed feminist LGB+ "be kind" brigade so the rights of women and gay people should matter, right?

Instead, you receive abuse. Not just any abuse, but misogynistic abuse, threats, doxxing, lies, twisting your words, and attempts to make you lose your lifelihood.

First, you are shocked, but then you start to feel angry. Angry and betrayed. You start to wonder how many others like you have been shut out and silenced by trans activists. You may start by looking up "that one woman" who you think was not entirely treated fairly, but you had earlier decided to accept the trans activists' version that she is just "a bigot".

You find out that despite trans activists vehemently claiming some things never happen, they do happen. They just willfully ignore them. You find out people criticising trans movement are feminists, LGB people, concerned parents, medical experts, and even trans people themselves. Trans activists just lie when they claim they are far-righters and conservatives. You find out they do not want trans people dead. It is the trans activists who send them death threats and show up to their events to "punch terfs".

And you become angrier, so you decide you will not be silenced. You decide to talk more and raise more awareness. The more you criticise and the more you share, the more abuse trans activists send to you. And the angrier you become.

Then the useful idiots see your anger and are convinced you are just a hater that should not be listened to. Why else would you be so angry?

when i interact with older women it is innocent and sweet and filled with so much love, but men? they always have depraved motives.

i have never once been around an older man (outside of my family) who has not treated me as dumb, or a sexual object.

As a black girl, it’s just impossible for me to ignore the similarities between black face and drag as phenomenons that were/are incredibly normalized in popular culture. Both are offensive exaggerations of an oppressed class to the point of caricaturization by the oppressor class for entertainment and perpetuate harmful stereotypes. The defence line drag apologists always use is that drag is an exploration of gender expression especially for gender non conforming males who were never able to express their femininity and that’s why it’s different from black face in that sense which is just blatant racism. What they don’t know is that white performers often used the excuse of exploring their “inner negro” when in blackface and it was actually a very popular response to blackface criticism lol. And even then..why should women be mocked and made sexual objects in order for men to be able to “express themselves” it’s really just grade A sexism so many drag performers have expressed not thinking that women should participate. There is no other explanation for why drag queens are overwhelmingly much more popular than drag kings and that’s the fact that embodiments of men aren’t seen as jokes. Recently read this really fascinating paper that talks about how similar the two are I strongly recommend it

when women claim men don't have the same emotional capacity as us, i think it's untrue and more importantly letting them off easy. throughout history men have written insightful poems and novels on the human experience or on how "love conquers all", but digging deeper reveals they were still sexist assholes--men definitely have the same emotional intelligence as women (we're in the same species so obviously) but they simply teach themselves that women are the ones who aren't deserving of their empathy. this is why "nice guys" and the men you know are still as dangerous as the strangers you don't know; it has nothing to do with their moral compasses. it's just that no matter how virtuous they are, that virtue is more often than not entirely closed off to women.

radfem question!!

i'm having a conversation with someone about female only spaces (this specifically pertains to bathrooms) and they said that the rule of having female-only bathrooms would "act more like an enforcement of femininity more than anything else."

I think their point is about butch lesbians and/or women who present "masculinely," and so because there is ofc no female identification at the door, and policy would likely just make it more acceptable for women and girls to report if there was a male in the bathroom (without having to determine if the male identifies as a woman), this could end up hurting "masculine"-presenting women (implying that they could be mistaken as male), and in turn just reinforce femininity. Thoughts? (mine are in tags)

#I understand that this has happened a few times before actually. i think my main point would just be that dressing masculinely does not #actually make you look male and like its evolutionarily advantageous for humans to be able to spot the opposite vs same sex #and so this i dont believe is going to be a huge problem based off of mistakenly seeing female ppl as male HOWEVER #because (from my very limited knowledge) it seems that the few times it has happened it has been lesbophobia #could this be a tool to enforce femininity on females? my last point is just that ofc ideally (imo) many single-stall bathrooms with like #complete complete privacy is ideal but also financially that is very hard to impliment and is not practical. but also! kathleen stock spoke #abt how TRAs cant simultaneously claim that TW being able to use the womens bathroom is so important and also not think its important enoug #to shell out money on?? so maybe the financial practicality COULD be possible?? but also maybe not idk.! im just curious what yall think #thanks!! #radfem #radblr #radical feminism #gender critical #radical feminists do interact #terfblr #rad fem #gender criticism #terfsafe #questions tag

To the gender criticals out there, know that when we say “let trans people in sports”, we are not suggesting that we should end the conversation at that. We are suggesting that with the topic of trans people in sports, y’all are not going in the right direction.

You cannot identify womanhood by any given trait or feature, besides the fact that somebody feels like a woman. That is what makes them feel comfortable in society and their bodies.

Not all cis women have uteruses. Not all cis women produce estrogen. Not all cis women have breasts. Not all cis women even have XX chromosomes.

These women are biologically female, and their womanhood should not be defined by arbitrary traits that you assign them. Besides, to imply that they are worthy of womanhood, and trans women are not, is hypocritical.

Gender isn’t just a social construct, it’s the way our brains perceive ourselves and our role in society from birth. You cannot be critical of things that are not subjective concepts. That is called ignorance.

The issue with trans people in sports (and I know there is one) is not that they’re a danger to sports, it’s that the system we compete based on is outdated, and biased towards a very stereotypical type of man and woman.

The solution is not banning a minority from something built for enjoyment, the solution is to abolish the system that they, along with many people outside of the minority, do not fit into.

There is no one-size-fits-all for sports separation, and different sports can be separated in different ways. If your system is built to regulate womanhood, it is not a system of protection, it is a system to oppression. We are all humans, and every day the excuses of “gender ideology” and “gender confusion” become more and more absurd.

Think for yourself. If you were born with something that made you different than other men or women, would you really be okay with everybody excluding you? From children’s soccer teams? From high school basketball practices? From putting in the years of effort to compete in the Olympics? All because you were born “imperfect” by their standards.

This isn’t something I’m willing debate. If you disagree with including minorities in sports, or allowing intersex people to compete, you need to do some long, individual reflection on why you care so much about how limited of a human experience a minority should have. Don’t try to reword yourself into the hero. Use some critical thinking.
