#men violence

[prokopetz]

Like, I'm not gonna say that the X-Men and their various imitators are anything like a perfect allegory, but "it's a bad allegory because super powers really are dangerous" has never held water for me. Like, are we really just gonna uncritically accept the implicit assumption lurking in that argument that bigotry is only wrong to the extent that its targets lack the ability to threaten the status quo? Hand-wringing over whether certain minorities are inherently dangerous is – and, critically, always has been – a smoke-screen for the real conversation about who has the right to possess the capacity for violence, and you can't engage with that conversation if your opening move is to concede that the only legitimate victim is a powerless one.

So tell me more about how women "manipulate the police and courts" and how "women lie about being abused and get believed and men get put in prison for 20 years over false accusations"

He set her on fire after she begged several police stations for help and nobody took her fears seriously

(Despite him having a history of violence, a history of mental health issues, and a court order telling him to stay away from her and her children, which he ignored, which are all warning signs that SHOULD have been listened to)

Tell me more about how totally innocent men get punished by this "unfair system"

Facefucking is the superior way to fuck any cunt.

It requires no prep, no foreplay, it can be done anywhere at anytime. It can be as rough as the man wants it. It's degrading AND humiliating. It can be brutal and extreme. You can easily control the cunt more this way but choosing if it gets to breathe or not. More men should prefer facefucking over any type of fucking!!

i absolutely cannot believe people are trying to start discourse about whether nex benedict was actually nonbinary / whether it was okay for him to describe himself as nonbinary to some people if he didn’t actually identify that way as if he isn’t literally DEAD because he was KILLED. this is a MURDERED CHILD and these monsters are so busy getting mad at the possibility that he might have been a trans boy who described himself as nonbinary to his family because that was easier for them to take that they’re turning a CHILD who was MURDERED into fucking discourse. even when we die at the hands of cis people’s violence, our own community finds a way to make us the villains of the story.

and all of this bullshit on top of the ways that cis people are already trying to say our grief over his death is unjustified. all of this on top of people claiming he wasn’t murdered and speculating on other causes of death (i literally saw someone say he “clearly went home and took the coward’s way out” and i have never been more disgusted) or claiming that he started the fight as if any action on his part could’ve been enough to justify his death. i am haunted by the sound of his father screaming that his child was not filth because that is what people have been saying about this poor kid, that’s how cruelly his memory is being treated, and even the trans community can’t get it’s shit together enough to look past the stupid discourse and see the tragedy in front of us. did you all forget that it was supposed to be up to us to grieve him in the way he deserves when the rest of the world fails to care if people like him live or die? did you all forget that this child was our sibling, the future of our community, a life that we should have had the chance to know and treasure while he was still here but that we now have a responsibility to hold close to our hearts in his absence? nex’s life was precious and it was ended far too soon and if you truly believe that anything is more important than mourning his life and fighting for a world where no more trans people have to meet such an awful fate, you’re a traitor to this community and you do not deserve the place you occupy within it.

i’m so tired. i can’t even imagine how tired his family must be, to see the public treat the child they’re grieving so horribly, to see the world fail their baby again. leave him alone. he was already robbed of peace in life; the least you can do is let him finally have it in death.

#as a trans man whose family still uses they/them and neutral terms for me and would describe me as nonbinary #because that was how i initially came out to them and me being a man is a much bigger hurdle than i have the energy to help them get over #it’s SO deeply disturbing to know that if my life ended in violence #my own community would be more concerned with how my family referred to me in death than with the fact that i was killed #how fucking dare you turn this poor child’s existence into discourse fodder when they aren’t even here to defend themselves #when you only even know who he is in the first place because he was killed #tw transphobic violence #nex benedict #tbh it feels wrong to even add my usual tags to this but i need people to see it so. here we go #transandrophobia #transandromisia #transmisandry #virilmisia #virilphobia #anti transmasculinity #transmascphobia #exorsexism #trans men #transmascs

i think trans-affirming cisfeminism's problem is that it views trans people as a way of analyzing cis gender relations, so trans women are going from the status of cis men to cis women, & trans men vice-versa. there is no appreciation for "trans" as its own status, because that would require viewing transphobia as something the patriarchy does on purpose instead of like. something it trips into on its quest to oppress cis women exclusively. and this is also why by and large feminism (including trans feminists) has fucked sucked at talking about NB/GQ people's experiences without binarizing them

#m. #honestly i think understanding all of the different versions of transphobia #are vital to understanding transphobia holistically #like the idea that that trans people are patriarchal bycatch is very similar #to the idea that trans men are never targeted on purpose & only experience ''misdirected'' oppression #the need to force trans experiences into the cis man/cis woman binary is a form of exorsexism #i think a lot more has been said abt transmisogyny but the idea of trans people as being acceptable victims of #violence bc we arent ''real women'' or ''real men'' #something something this is why: #transunity

A 19 year old woman stabbed a 40 year old man during sex. They had known each other for a week. The woman admits having planned the stabbing the whole time.

She told the court she had waited for a long time she would meet a man who exploits young women so she could kill him. She declared she didn't want such men to exist.

She had planned her actions beforehand and during sex she grabbed a knife she had hidden previously and slashed the man's throat and then stabbed him.

The man survived and has told the press this experience destroyed his life. He is now afraid to date anyone and is too afraid to return to his home because the woman knows his address.

Rough translation from Finnish newspaper Helsingin Sanomat.

#While I don't endorse violence I wish men would be more hesitant to have sex with younger women they don't know #The woman was a refugee and the man twice her age thought it's a good idea to have sex with someone who is in such a vulnerable position

masculinity is 99.9% grooming boys to be the bestest toy soldiers ever. the violence it is characterized by, so that oligarchs can always have bodies to throw at the territory they want from their competitors. “you are savage” “a meat-eater” “such a strong little boy” “buy another shooting video game” you are being bred for a war that will never end because the greed of your overlords has no limits. war wouldn’t happen if men didn’t start them and hinge the global economy on them. they want men to identify with the role they want them to play. and it’s worked so brilliantly. they really think they’re heroes. male identity is so steeped in violence on a peer and societal level. and it’s been happening for ages.

#radblr #thoughts on gender that aren’t focused on femininity #this is a really old thing men are sociologically conditioned to identify with war and see themselves solely in the context of violence #they don’t have identity outside of violence #not by the time their male peers are done with them #capitalism #marxism #thought of this while reading gerda lerner

They always say “read Whipping Girl” but never warn you how often the book is hostile towards or just straight up wrong about transmasculine & non-binary people whenever they’re brought up. Like I’m starting to see why so many people who say that are transandrophobic tbh

#transandrophobia #exorsexism #whipping girl #mine #she’s almost exclusively brought them up to be critical about them #and has made several false claims or generalizations about them #I’m still reading through but maybe I’ll list them at a later point #e.g. trans men feel safer after transition + don’t rlly experience violence + aren’t sexualized #& that genderqueer/nby people can often be ‘binary-phobic’

A woman and her boyfriend were arguing when he shoved her in front of a train. “I don’t deserve this! I don’t deserve this!” the woman screamed over and over, according to a witness. She held a chunk of flesh in her hand while pleading for help. The man fled the station. Her feet were found on the tracks.

I hate men.

I also wanna be forcibly bimbofied, I wanna be drugged, then taken to a plastic surgeon where I will be put under to get whatever tits my owner desires! I have no control over that and it will be too expensive for me to remove them on my own. I am worthless and deserve whatever my owner would want. Whoever owns me, that is.

Jonathan, meeting Van Helsing for the first time: Hi! :)

Van Helsing, physically holding him up to the light to look for Signs of Shock and Headfuckery: Well, that can’t be right. I heard you were all kinds of wrecked

Jonathan: Oh, I was. But then you confirmed my two-month stay in Transylvanian Vampire Hell was real, so now I’m better :)

Van Helsing, still mentally preparing himself for a hell of a time convincing Jack that vampires are a thing: ...

Jonathan, all heroic-to-vengeful sunshine: Are we going to fuck up the Count now? :)

Van Helsing, close to tears: God, yes

#it really is objectively hilarious that the first young ~rational~ people Van Helsing runs into who are down for vampire violence #are these two seemingly mild-mannered nerds #rather than the stalwart young men back home who he still has to convince of the threat #Jack: Vampires are bullshit ESPECIALLY Lucy being one #Jonathan and Mina: I will stake Dracula with a fountain pen if need be :) #jonathan harker #abraham van helsing #dracula #dracula daily

post-s3 mob (specifically) really enjoys pro-wrestling but absolutely refuses to believe that it’s all pre-produced and planned out, so he gets very legitimately upset whenever one of the wrestlers he likes makes a heel turn. Like genuine betrayal and disbelief in that poor boy’s eyes. One of the wrestlers, after winning a team title, becomes very predictably possessive over the trophy and starts saying canned anime villain lines and declares his partner his eternal enemy (will be resolved in one month TOPS) and Mob buys into it so fucking hard, hook line and sinker, because he’s completely accustomed to very strange adult men with god complexes doing villain monologues at him and being 100% serious about it.

#he’s been taught to take claims of world domination very seriously #especially from men in colorful clothes LMAO #mp100 #mob psycho 100 #shigeo kageyama #it has to be Shigeo specifically and not pre-s3 finale Mob bc i feel like Mob wouldn’t like the violence #but i believe that shigeo has shit to work out and starts to enjoy fighting in healthy amounts

Indeed, the media tends to not notice—or to outright ignore—trans men because they are unable to sensationalize them the way they do trans women without bringing masculinity itself into question. And in a world where modern psychology was founded upon the teaching that all young girls suffer from penis envy, most people think striving for masculinity seems like a perfectly reasonable goal. Author and sex activist Patrick Califia, who is a trans man, addresses this in his 1997 book Sex Changes: The Politics of Transgenderism: “It seems the world is still more titillated by ‘a man who wants to become a woman’ than it is by ‘a woman who wants to become a man.’ The first is scandalous, the latter is taken for granted. This reflects the very different levels of privilege men and women have in our society. Of course women want to be men, the general attitude seems to be, and of course they can't. And that's that.”

— Whipping Girl, p 46-47

I think this provides a really productive explanation for the common differences between the reactions trans men get from cis people versus what trans women generally get - we (transmascs) are pitiable misguided babies, led astray by aspirations we can never hope to achieve. This is obviously not a good state of affairs, and the “sympathy” we receive is just a pretext for cis people to extend greater control over our lives, but we are still given the benefit of doubt where our gendered “aspirations” are concerned (“of course you want to be a man! don’t we all?”), something that is never ever given to trans women

#transmisogyny tw #whipping girl #before anyone gets mad this is not claiming trans men don’t face oppression or violence #i have personal experience on that front lol. but we do not face the same level of violent hatred as our transfem sisters do
