hey tumblr, thanks for recommending me a TERF post "based on my likes." I hope the hour I spent blocking as many people as I could bear in the notes is enough of a hint for you.
#i've seen some shit this morning y'all
#like it was one of those posts that i initially agreed with but then alarm bells went off in my head at some of the phrasing
#the post was about how 2-year-olds and 3-year-olds don't have a concept of gender yet because they're too little
#followed by 'amazing it's almost like telling kids what boys and girls are will help them understand'
#so i checked the notes and it was rampant with terfs
#the main post was never tagged as anything though someone just posted a twitter screenshot
#i need to find the terf tags post thing cuz i didnt have time to block before but i guess i do now
#now i'm paranoid about how much of my stuff has been this shit and i never realized
#anyway be careful guys it's fucking BAD out here
#dimond speaks
#tw transphobia
#tw transphobes
#and like i agree- 2 and 3 are too young for this stuff since the gender binary is so fucking strong
#of course girls can play with dinosaurs if they want that doesn't make them boys
#but kinds will understand that the more experience and knowledge they gain of the world around them
#they barely know they're sentient yet of course they're gonna get confused
#but once they DO get a better handle on what gender is then some of them are gonna realize that being a boy was the right answer all along
#you cannot make that judgement for them
#and also like no harm no fowl if they DO think they're trans for a while? like what's wrong with that??
#this shit is complex as fuck and i do not expect a 3-year-old to get it okay?
#took me til i was about 15 to even know trans people existed at all and a couple more months to realize i was one too
#and i'm fucking dumb like i'm not a good metric to go off of
#but even if 3-year-olds aren't going to understand that's where you as the parent have to help them understand it
#but little by little
#like as teenagers and adults we can just look something up and tada! there's the answer!
#kids can't do that yet they DO need parents to help them
#those parents just also have to be aware of how they're teaching their kids
#there's a difference between 'girls like pink and boys like blue' and 'and your age it literally doesn't matter but girls like she/her'
#and that was a terrible example but i'm not a parent so
#you figure it out
