This thread is for the discussion of transgenderism from a gender critical and radical feminist perspective. It was originally created by Admin as an amalgamation of the TERF and transgender threads.

>>>/ot/203215Gender critical and radical feminism define
gender as sociological (feminine/masculine) and
sex as biological (female/male).
Woman is defined as an adult human female. Gender critical feminists seek to abolish gender as it is used by patriarchy to oppress women socially, reproductively, and financially. They strive to preserve women's spaces (such as restrooms, locker rooms, and health care providers) and areas of artistic and intellectual expression separate from men.
Transgenderism posits that one's gender is self-determined based on one's feelings and defines
woman as the characteristics and behaviors traditionally ascribed to females by society. Increasingly, transactivists are conflating gender and sex and asserting that a person can self-identify both gender and sex.
Gender critical feminists strive to maintain the distinction between gender and sex. The conflation of gender and sex erases the biological reality of women, eliminates women-only spaces, and disestablishes women as a protected class.
The acronym TERF (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminism) is used primarily by transactivists and their allies to denigrate radical feminists and other women who express gender critical ideas. Transactivists portray TERFs as violent oppressors by virtue of their ideas alone.
Posts of related news and web articles are welcome. Posts of photos, videos, and blogs of transactivists for the purposes of discussion and critique are welcome. Please refrain from derailing, infighting, and ad hominem attacks. This thread is not intended for the general discussion of sexuality, misogyny, and misandry.

I just checked tumblr today for the first time in a long, long while and saw something about rudfems/nicefems, does anyone have any idea what either of those terms mean?Someone I follow posted something along the lines of "radfems are turning on rudfems lmao" but even after searching the term on both tumblr and google, I still don't fucking get it.
Speaking of tumblr, someone asked at the end of the previous thread why did trans bullshit gain so much traction and sympathy now, and from my perspective, tumblr played a big role in that.
An anon on the previous thread also said we're "obsessed, because no normal person cares that much about tumblr snowflakes", but I'm growing more and more worried, this shit has left tumblr long ago. I'm from BRAZIL and the government passed a law this week that allows people to change their name and sex on their registry, literally no questions asked. No need for surgery, or hormones, or even a formal diagnosis.

Perhaps here we could have a proper discussion about this issue, I think everyone here know a 'fakeboi/transtrender' ftM phenomenon.
I have a friend who fits into most of the usual stereotype in that thread (yaoi/slash fan, i'm so gay boi,cute boi fashion, cosplay, drag race, no actual physical dysphoria) in his/her early 20s
Talking to him/her it looks like she is from a religious background and conflated gender roles and expectation and stronger sense of gender and haven't got dysphoria before getting into Tumblr stuff and believe her/himself s/he should be a boy then fail to be one. 'she' was an GNC straight girl who was also in abusive relationship before.
I have never been in gender critical discourse before but for a long time it feels like his/her transgenderism is misguided, like a gut feeling it is likely wrong be wrong. S/he told me s/he has made his/her mind that this is his/her real identity being a man. It's just because I had that one phase of strong feeling of wanting to be a boy, and it's all gone for me.
I've met many transgenders out of my life and there are many that feel legit to me. He'll, I have a 'FtM' friend who present much more masculine in socialization than the cute boi I talked beforehand but never wanted transition out of complications.
I tried to be supportive but I am legitimately scared that s/he will regret HRT. But s/he seems decisive now so I can't do any, and needed to let him/her learn the hard way.
so here's my question
- Why is this particular Tumblr phenomenon looks so contagious, they generally are into the same things and dressing the same way. No 'real' dysphoria for whatsoever.
- Do you think there will be a massive surge of detransitioners in the near future? Do you think what will end up of these uwu boi in their 30s?
No. 231959
>>231958I believe it's so popular because you're instantly part of a club and you suddenly have a support network of other women who are confused about gender expectations.
I had a time when I struggled with my gender, I was really confused and needed to work some things out. But as soon as I properly left puberty behind things got a lot easier, and I understood that I don't have any problem with my body, and stopped giving a shit about gender expectations.

BIZARRE turn of events, we don't get laws/legislation (idk the correct term) approved that quickly…
unless it benefits rich and powerful people. Most of the population is still very socially conservative and disapproving of anything they deem "left wing", they weren't the ones pushing for this.
And on top of that, as you said, it's not only a pro-trans law but an extreme, reckless one. I'm legitimately worried that this might be an experiment to see what the consequences will be (maybe so they can do the same in other countries?)
I'm not one to believe in conspiracy theories, but I can't see how this would be anything but.

>>231964I'm the Anon you're replying to and am borderline asexual myself, that's why I know the attempts to make it an "orientation" on the "spectrum" seems like the work of a bunch of try-hards with no personality who just want a handy club to join/want to seem special with no effort on their part.
Romantic stuff can be avoided or ignored, just like anything else that doesn't affect the person (e.g. Sports). Explaining why you're single is
a lot easier than coming out, so tacking themselves onto LGBT seems tacky when it wasn't their club to join in the first place. Unless they're gay AND ace in which case doesn't one cancel out the other? How can you have a sexuality and also no sexual interest at once?
No. 231969
>>231966Tbh anon - and please don’t think I’m insulting you, I’m speculating based on your comment - it honestly sounds like you just don’t like yourself very much and are therefore projecting that feeling onto a group who apparently want to feel like they belong to something.
Romantic/sexual stuff can be ignored sure, but it’s in every form of media. It’s the basis of most songs, it appears in every film and book, and many photos/artworks are about it too. Sports isn’t equatable to that because doing sport isn’t a basic human function that is basically the primary purpose of life and so appears in nearly everything as a major theme.
I’d be more supportive of ace people in the orientation spectrum than fucking trans people. I could get on board with LGBA instead!
No. 231971
>>231969Idk, I see your point with the media thing because I think it
does reflect itself with my taste in movies/tv shows (meaning stuff like HBO dramas and Netflix is avoided like the plague since they seem to be overtly sexual)
It's a bit more complex with books, music, art because a lot of what I find unappealing is just generally trashy even if the reason why it's trashy is because it's sexual. I guess it's just not a problem compared to being gay and (prior about 2 years ago) being left out of everything, or for example being autistic and not seeing life in the same way you're expected to. Being ace is like a first-world problem which doesn't really have a negative impact, and may even have a positive one as it frees up a lot of time where you're not thinking about/having sex.

So, now you see what your function is, you’re not his friend, you’re his shieldmaiden who protects him from the big bad world and validates his mental illness. Not actually trying to be a bitch, but this is why you see a lot of GC women who are beyond frustrated. You have no worth besides being a template he can copy and a bulldog to scare off the nasty terfs. Walk away and don’t look back. You owe this person nothing. Stop erasing yourself for the greater tranny glory.

If you read 4th wave now, it seems that more and more girls are desisting. Maybe that’s just wishful thinking, but they have a series of mother/daughter conversations there, as well as stories of adult desisters who are now trying to find a path through life, now that the T has messed them up in many ways, and how to go forward from there. I think 4th wave now is an amazing resource because it shows us that there’s hope, for the girls, at least. But the moms have to be on top of their parenting game, and no one wants to do that shit anymore. The boys are coming from munchie moms, full stop. Adult trannies are AGP. No mystery there.
It’s all social contagion, though. It’s the same reason news channels used to, once upon a time, dial way back on the discussion of teen suicide and mass shooters. Social contagion is real, and it plays a huge factor in what’s being called rapid onset gender dysphoria, i.e tumblr trenders.
I think the things we see happening in places like Brazil or even Canada—child is removed from the home because waaaah I want to be like all the other kids, give me my hormone!—is to keep people distracted from the greater issues. I’ve been voting a long time. Unfortunately, both sides are the same. When you start out, you don’t see this, but get through ten or twelve voting cycles and you begin to realize that what interests those in power is power, and keeping it. Actual change that filters down to the working class occurs rarely. So they allow the plebs things that we think are about freedom but ultimately add up to nothing. Trans is seen by them as a power grab, a way to make tons of money by creating a permanently handicapped class who will need lots of big pharma for the rest of their natural born lives, and makes them said cash via lobbyists and special interest groups. Just look at all the women in Congress. Where are the GC politicians taking a stand for women? The sad fact is they care more about making the money than they do women’s safety, or the mutilated bodies of kids.

In recent years, the transgender community has started advancing an ideology that creates psychological distress, especially in young people. While trans activists in the news media (like Janet Mock and Laverne Cox) talk about transgender issues in a way that makes them sound tame, the reality is different once gender questioning and confused individuals make their way to trans groups online.In these groups, teenagers who feel uncomfortable with their bodies and adults with depression and anxiety are coached–yes, coached–into thinking the source of their discomfort is a lifelong dysphoria that can only be corrected via sterilizing cross-sex hormones and, often, disfiguring surgeries.You may not believe that this coaching or recruitment happens, or maybe you’ve already had experience with it. Either way, this blog aims to show evidence that transgender groups online are actively recruiting children, pressuring children and young adults to make irreversible bodily changes as young as possible, and turning them away from any family members or friends who do not support every aspect of transgender ideology.https://transgenderreality.com/about/ No. 232003
>>231992If they’re not protecting the rights of women and they value tranny votes that much, then I’m not voting for them. The trans narrative is a locomotive at this point and if they aren’t speaking up about this, I’m going to try my hardest to get them out. They ~are on the wrong side of history, and people in a hundred years will look back and see how barbaric this was. Human experimentation, like eugenics and lobotomies and Tuskegee. Women who are pro-trans should never be making decisions that affect real women.

I think a lot of us have gone through a period of staying mum because we’re afraid of the backlash, what kind of awful bullshit is that? Trannies want and need for us to be afraid and quiet, they want us divided and infighting amongst ourselves so they can get what they want, which is to be creepy skinwalkers.

Came to lc as a lurker via the Raven thread, have been lurking on the recent trans/critical threads on /ot and I guess I’m a granny, looking for help all over the internet. My fourteen year old daughter is telling me she’s a trans man, and I’m terrified. The reason I thought to post in this thread is because I know lc skews towards young women, do any of you have any ideas? How would you want to be approached about something you don’t necessarily want to be approached about? I also lurk 4th wave, which I know is more specific to what’s happening, but I thought some of you might have some ideas, as young women who are already gender critical. What brought you to this point? Was there something that you saw or experienced with friends that made you turn away from the current obsession with gender? If it were a friend, and you were worried, what would you say to her?
She’s always been GNC and was happy with that until recently. I’m fairly certain she’s a lesbian, though she’s not out yet, and she’s always been supported in however she chooses to perform or not perform femininity. Her dad is present and a part of her life. She’s not got abuse or sexual trauma in her past. She’s so angry right now and she’s shutting me out and not wanting to talk about that, or why she feels so angry. We’re not religious, not conservative, it almost feels like this is just the new form of rebellion for girls her age. I probably would not have posted here if we weren’t in an informed consent state and the threat of testosterone wasn’t looming.
Hopefully posting correctly. I feel desperate.

No. 232053
>>232032>Was there something that you saw or experienced with friends that made you turn away from the current obsession with gender? Critical sense and being curious about opinions and positions that differ from my own. If your daughter likes to have actual discussions with good, actual arguments, she'll eventually read gender critical material in order to know how to refute it (that's how I realized identity politics was bullshit).
Could also try the Socratic method, asking questions and letting her come to right conclusion.
If she's not asking you for HRT or getting it on her own, I'd advise you to leave the subject alone for a little while and as
>>232050 said, make sure she knows it's normal to be uncomfortable with your own body when you're a teenager, and that it goes away. And that if it doesn't, she can get her transition when she's 18.
No. 232056
>>232032Maybe make a kind of ultimatum with her. Approach her as if you're wavering on the HRT thing or whatever it is she wants from you, and ask her to lay out (extensively) exactly how she feels and what she wants to do about it, and if she knows exactly what it means to do the thing she wants to do. Getting angry and blowing you off wouldn't benefit her in anyway, so she may take the bait. At the very least, you might be able to have a true conversation about it with her, wherein you could slip in some of
>>232050 or
>>232053 advice.
My dad would do this whenever I was trying to make a big decision on my own at a young age. It would piss me the hell off, but at the end of the day, if I got angry at him for doing this, the idea was usually poorly thought out/impulsive. If she's critical enough, this might start sowing seeds of doubt.

>>232032Hi, I hope I'm not too late.
I just want to suggest that you help the kid yourself instead of taking her to a psychologist who will just drug her or worse. This means you'll become her therapist. (If you absolutely must get someone else to do it, at least choose one that hasn't graduated recently, and trained in college at a time in which this specific pathology wasn't treated like it is today. They diagnose using the DSM-V nowadays, try one who learned under the DSM-IV or earlier, or is into Gestalt Therapy.)
I don't have a degree in psychology, I just read a lot of books about it, but I as far as I know there isn't exactly a therapy developed for people with gender dysphoria that has had great results. Gender Dysphoria is also the only illness among all those in which people want to mutilate themselves where it’s being suggested that they go ahead and cut of their body part.
In the case of your granddaughter, though, and of most people doing the trans change these days, I'm very skeptic that they actually have that dysphoria.
Consider talking to her taking these three perspectives as your starting point, the ones you mentioned:
a) that she is a woman;
b) that she is a lesbian;
c) that she is rebelling.
About a), she is at an age in which her period might have arrived. That alone can be a burden, if she finds the pads uncomfortable, if she doesn’t like the hassle of having to switch them every few hours, or if she has very acute pains. If she is feeling this, it’s possible that she thinks being a man and getting on hormones to stop her period would suit her best.
Also about being a woman, she might be uncomfortable with the stereotypical gender role assigned to her. She might not like the expectations that she should be bossed around, or be demure, or being obedient, or of being perceived has having no value beyond her looks, or of being assumed stupid, or not defending her interests, or risking pregnancy and sexual assault, etc. All of these things, and so many others, if they concern her enough, might make her think it would be easier to just be a man. Even if it happened to a friend or acquaintance she knows and not herself, they might worry her.
About b), specially since she isn’t out yet, even if she lives in the most progressive and accepting community ever, if she happens to have a crush on a straight girl and get rejected, she will attribute her sadness to the other person being of a different sexual orientation, and might feel like maybe she’d have a chance if she was a guy. And this is in an accepting community; imagine what she might feel like if that straight girl rejected her nastily and told everybody about her being a lesbian without her wanting to accept that about herself yet. If something like this happens, or is even a possibility because she already likes another girl she doesn’t think she has much of a chance with, it’s all the more fuel for her to believe being a man would solve her problems.
Also on being a lesbian, if she was exposed to straight porn, she might think that at least if she is a man, she won’t be treated like those women in porn. And if she was exposed to lesbian porn, that is still made for men, she might feel like she doesn’t relate to it and doesn’t want to do it, although she still finds women attractive, and so might think that being a man would fix that for her.
About c), if she is truly just rebelling and has no identity issue with being a woman, it’s very simple to change her mind, just use reverse psychology. Find an adult she despises, and have that adult pretend she wants to be trans. If possible, have her accompany that adult to doctors appointments, have the adult inquire the doctor extensively on the maintenance of the post-op, the problems with the surgery itself, and the reality of life after transitioning, in which straight women will want nothing to do with her because they like dicks, and lesbian women won’t either because they don’t like dicks - and she’ll be right in the in-between with a small one, pleasing nobody. Have the adult play up whatever traits she dislikes in her. She’ll conclude in no time that if X person, who is a twat, wants that, she doesn’t want it anymore, and it’s not such a cool thing after all.

To help her, if you think she is genuinely uncomfortable with being a woman, aim to dismantle the core of that belief – that if you don’t fulfill the gender stereotype, you are trans. You do it by showing her that most people aren’t walking stereotypes, they have degrees of stereotypical male and female traits, on both genders.
So you should at first, as homework, figure out what media she consumes and what ideas her friends have on the subject. What blogs or websites does she go to, and what are her friends like? For the first you might need a little snooping, but for the friends you can just invite them around and listen in.
You will then be able to figure out what she might think about it the trans subject, what ideas and opinions she weighs in. Once you know that, make a list of all the female role models she admires. Think heroic women from movies, tv shows, books, games, and her own life. Then remove any that might be 100 % stereotypically female. For example, a high powered career woman who is obedient at home can stay on your list; but a conventionally pretty housewife who is very obedient can’t.
Then you go to her, and ask her to define what a woman is, and pay lots of attention to what she says. Her definition of what a woman is, the stereotype in her mind is what you need to disprove, but be discreet about it. If she says a woman is nice, you mention the role models that she admires that aren’t nice, and ask her if she thinks they are still women. If she says a woman is obedient, you mention the people that she admires who aren’t obedient, same thing. If she says a woman is pretty, you ask her if the ugly women she admires are still women. And so on. You can even, if she likes you, ask her if she thinks you are not a woman for not being X, like she defines women as. Just be careful if she defines women as being able to get pregnant, to not give her examples of trans to counter the stereotype. Only people born as women can be used as a reference. They are the ones being domesticated from inception, and the ones who break away from that domestication, and are never alike those who adopt another gender as a gimmick. Don’t suggest to her that trans are women to counter the stereotype of woman=impregnable, mention women who are infertile if you have to.
In doing this, don’t push an agenda on her, and try to keep the questions open ended so she can explain her thoughts, rather than give her options to choose from. For example, don’t ask her why she thinks women are weak if she didn’t say women are weak, instead ask her if she thinks women have undesirable traits, and let her expand on it. She might start to notice that her thoughts don’t match reality and correct them herself. If she doesn’t, you could try a non-obtrusive way of interpreting her inner conflict. You start out by telling her that you had a thought about this, and then ask her if she wants to hear it. If she says yes, you can tell her what you are seeing. For example, that you notice that she believes women should be obedient, and perhaps she’d like to be free to disobey things she objects to. You can elaborate that she can do it, because woman Z she admires does too, but make sure it doesn’t come out as if you’re trying to control her.
The general course of action is what the other anons mentioned, have an accepting environment, in which she can freely choose to be who she is, and no stereotype is imposed on her. The assigned role is what she is discontent with, and it should be corrected by showing her she can be someone else without surgery.
I’m sorry this was so long, if you’d like to talk more I can give you an email for us to chat. Good luck!

just posted about her in the fakebois thread, but i thought it would fit better here
Lou Sullivan, an FTT who, after lying about her sex to gay men and then fucking them (aka "stealth sex"), got pozzed and eventually died of AIDS to validate her gender identity.
“I feel like it’s almost a poetic justice that I’ve spent my whole life trying to be a gay man and running into a lot of opposition and being told that I couldn’t do it, that it was impossible, and I feel like in a way this AIDS diagnosis - because AIDS is still seen at this point as a gay man’s disease - that it kind of proves that I did do it and I was successful. And I kind of took a perverse pleasure in contacting the gender clinics that rejected me and said that they’ve told me so many years that it was impossible for me to live as a gay man but it looks like I’m gonna die like one”

>>232182This is something that people don't talk about anymore. There was an article on one of the Gawker sister sites a few years ago, where gay guys all took PrEP for a month or months, nearly all of them went crazy sleeping with tons of people and got STDs but none got AIDS so it was considered a success.
The idea of not caring that you have multiple STDs is something that seems present in the gay scene (meaning clubbing/bars/meet up spots and not relationships, and I'm sure present in the straight scene too)
So it's an awful cliche which is also a reality that this person died by. Also all those guys knew she was a FtM otherwise they would've been reaching for the dick.
Horrible story but yeah.
There's also proven government stats that show certain STDs which are common in M/M but not M/F pairings have risen very significantly since 2010 and the rise of online dating/hookups.
I guess my point is you shouldn't idealize a community to the point of literally killing yourself to be part of it, and this applies to FtM and gay guys.

>>232182I will never understand people who make something as fucking mundane as gender or sexuality the cornerstone of their life. Gender/sex is just something that you are, it's meaningless, it doesn't have anything to do with who you want to be or become. It's not a profession, it's not a trait that you have to work for and achieve, it's not important. Fuck off with this bullshit that being a gay man is some sort of accomplishment, or anything any real, sane person should ever give a shit about beyond actual gay men.
I think this is my main problem with a lot of transgender snowflakes; they pretend that women are always thinking about how much of a woman they are, obsessing over looks and petty 'I have b00bs ecks-dee!' bullshit, when real women are just goddamn women and have lives. Act like a fucking adult and live with who you happen to be born as and get a fucking life, you petty weirdos.
Have sex with who you want, dress up in whatever clothes you like, just don't wear your '''womanhood''' like a fucking medal when 50% of people on Earth do it without anyone giving a single shit about them. Get over yourself.

>>232166Sorry, I was half asleep when typing out that sentence. I meant that people who experience gender dysphoria in their adulthood often have traumas related to their gender they experienced in their adolescence, such as bullying for being too feminine for a boy or too masculine for a girl. He's been very open about being bullied as a kid for being effeminate and so have been many other trans people as well. They've basically been pushed into transitioning by the trauma caused by their peers.
>>232177>>232179nayrt It doesn't have to be a physical sexual assault per se, it could just as well be any trauma related to sexuality. And even if it doesn't apply in all cases, it's still a noticeable reason. I personally know plenty of fakeboys who have been sexually assaulted or harassed and that has
triggered their dysphoria. You want to get everything feminine off your body to protect yourself from experiencing it ever again. I've done that too, I've wore chest binders and male clothing as protection.

>>232264It's not OT, 'progressives' trying to
drag Ru Paul is relevant because it displays the hypocrisy of their side of the argument and also highlights the failures of collectivised movements as a result of co-option and intersections of interests.
If drag, and feminism, were to retain one of their original messages; of gender roles and gender presentation as a social construct, then there is room for the involvement of children to be seen as harmless play, merely dress up, and a liberation from oppressive traditional values.
By allowing that position to be corrupted by a completely opposing set of beliefs i.e inherent modes of performed gender, people demanding recognition of authenticity for conforming to traditional or stereotypical representations of gender,'this is how i feel on the inside therefor I must permanently distort my body through irreversible surgery', the dialogues are subverted from their intended purposes and become something much more sinister.

He’s enabling the success of men imitating women, and excluding women from doing the same.

if women want to look like drag queens they could literally do so at any time by doing heavy make up. Ru Paul's Drag Race is a contest and for a fair competition they have to have rules. and Ru Paul is a LGBT icon, he's normalising feminine boys. The contestants are not always in drag and show their personalities not in costume. It is a good show for giving gay men a platform to express their creativity how they like. I doubt any of them will get pissed at me for wearing male clothes and not wearing make up.

Drag as a concept is the greatest ally you have; if you want to be gender critical, avoid a future of puberty blocking trans kids and the mainstream legitimisation of insanity. Instead you want to ignore all that for the sake of taking offence and muh misogyny then you are drenching yourself in as much irony and hypocrisy as the trans movement.

But also allowed to be drag queens. Even though actual women aren’t.
Also how is performing gender norms breaking gender norms? Granted it’s men doing femininity, but they’re still reenforcing gender norms for women. Because all women are curvy, have big lips and eyes, love skirts & dresses tehe ~uwu~

I think drag isn't misogynistic. Drag queens are caricaturist versions of extreme femininity, almost all of their acts are stand-up or include comedy. A lot of them have stereotypical attitudes when in character, which mocks men more than women. Like an anon above stated, it's a mockery of hyper feminine properties. It deconstructs the notion that you are a true woman IF you have these traits. It also signals that a lot of attributes we assign to women are just that, people assume that because you are a woman you must have those attributes. Ya know, reminding us that anyone can have those attributes.
It proves that anyone can have an attitude and can look hyper feminine, but it doesn't mean they are female. Most drag performers, such as RuPaul and Divine, have always stated in their interviews that they are not women nor do they want to be. They also acknowledge that drag is not a mockery of female gender, but rather a twist on that back in the day all female parts were played by men. Drag is a form of performance art. If the performance was not intended to be offensive or cause harm, you can't argue that it has the purpose of causing harm.
Drag queens are not even remotely like troons, drag queens go out of their way to put in effort and work on their character. Drag queens embrace women and are not trying to outwoman women, unlike troons. Drag queens also have a lot more variety, you can see obese drag queens who look amazing. Troons often have the speciul perk of
>i put on my mums dress and shaved my legs a month ago, suck my dick you silly lesbians

No. 232422
you guys don't get it.
drag isn't offensive or misogynistic because it makes fun of femininity, it's because it's hurtful in the same way blackface is. it parodies something women are forced into from a pure comedy prospective in a way that's designed to benefit men. but once the show is over they can take it off and they don't have to assume that role, they don't have to feel trapped like we do. that's why black face offends people, because of the privilege involved. the privilege to be someone else in a clean and disinfected way rather than having to deal with the socialization, pressure and hatred that comes from it.
there's no critical thinking to be had from drag, no gender roles broken, just men trying to look like the ridiculous version of women that men think of, nothing more. however, it does nothing to serve them other than make a few men uncomfortable with their masculinity, but it doesn't challenge masculinity, it challenges femininity. yes, many gay men do drag, and yes many gay men are feminine, but they should be challenging their own stereotypes. it's never men making fun of meathead guys, dressing in muscle suits to be critical of their testosterone fueled peers. it's them taking an easy pass at s group that's already easy to shit on. it's shit like movies where men portray racist stereotypes of black women. are tyler perry's madea movies meant to mock men? no. even regular drag, it's like an in joke with the drag queens, with their audience just laughing because of how ridiculous it is, nothing more, because there's no more to it.
No. 232425
>>232419No, that's being a transvestite, drag by definition is outrageous and over the top, the end goals isn't to pass as a woman. Drag is also heavily tied to theater and stage performance, no one really gets in drag just to walk around.
>>232422A lot of them are not comedy queen but fashion or beauty queen, it's not necessarily about being funny it can be about being "fabulous", beautiful, fashionable, bigger than life, etc…
If a man can get dressed as a woman and do it perfectly it goes to show that even when women do it it's just a costume, in the end anyone can perform extreme femininity, because it's not really tied to womanhood.
No. 232427
>>232425but extreme femininity is tied to womanhood. did you miss out on being a woman? on the term dyke or tomboy. on being made fun of by men and other women for not having big enough breasts or hips? for not doing makeup properly? did you miss out on people telling you to wear skirts once in a while or telling you that you dressed like a dude? people telling you to have girly hobbies? femininity
is tied to womanhood, the entire notion of being a girl, being a woman is just society using femininity to define being female, and that is a problem.
No. 232430
I think what bothers me most about drag is using female pronouns and names for a man just because he's dolled up.
That's not being gender critical, that's reinforcing the notion that a feminine presentation is equal to being female. It's reinforcement of femininity for females but a break in gender roles for males. It only benefits men. If they used a male stage name and pronouns it wouldn't be bad, but no, they won't do that. They
need to perform as a female in the most stereotypical way they can.
It's offensive like black face is, but not for the reasons
>>232422 said - it's offensive like original black and yellow face were. It's dressing up as an oppressed group and acting out stereotypes (competing with other girls, calling them bitches, being petty etc).

>>232223Yeah, you know, I don’t know about that. There is a real fucking problem with gender in the US, but I’m not sure what the real root causes are. Everything since the seventies has been progressively better, not worse, so I don’t see why we’re going in reverse. I mean, even in the fifties they had women roller derby teams and shit. Sometimes it almost feels like the tumblrites are making us go backwards with their shitty rhetoric, not because things are all that bad, comparatively. Why do they all want to be sexworkers and camgirls? Porn is not great for society.
I mean even with there being boatloads of porn, if you know your history, objectively, things were way worse in the fifties for women than they are now. Yet we seem to have regressed completely back to pre WW2 roles, before women entered the workforce for the first time. Shitty victimization ideologies amplify that. I don’t like the idea that women are not strong or that we can’t speak up.

Also, if you think there are women out there in government somehow doing us a favor by allowing this legislation to go through, and they most definitely are, then I don’t know what to say? Both men and women are guilty of pushing this shit through.

The posters who want to talk ~~about ~~trannies pissing them off got kicked out of every other thread and given this one. To discuss trannies. Because that link up there, to the TERF thread? That thread got locked.
So, again. Is it okay with you that we have one thread on an entire site to talk about men who think they’ll be able to give birth in a few years or who think their pig in wig nonsense equals girl? Or did you come over to make sure that we don’t have a place to do it again?

I wish there was a way to get through to these women and ask them why they hate themselves so much.
>>232669I don’t understand what’s stopping you from talking about trannies pissing you off. This is the Gender Critical thread, meaning any critical discussion of gender. If we started discussing the gender critical aspect of drag in the drag thread, we’d likely be warned to take it to the correct thread.
The article that began the discussion was indeed related to transgenderism and the OP (me) is a dedicated TERF pissed off at the response of trannies and handmaidens who all felt sad for trannies being excluded from getting rich and famous for performing femininity but not for themselves.
>>232679That’s completely fair, but then radTERF anons might have to share the thread, and that seems to be what’s causing the infighting.
>>232682Please see my above comment. You can discuss drag, MTT violence against women, both or even neither. Maybe the TERF comment wasn’t responded to because people are interested in an actual debate on a gender critical subject, rather than just being horrified at trannies like usual.

You don’t sound all that gender critical to me. You sound like you’re softpedaling. If you’re in the UK you know you have major, not minor, problems with children getting transed and lesbian girls being erased. You have an increased rate of puberty blocker therapy going on, and you have lawmakers and doctors jumping on board. Why are you minimizing that?
You keep snidely reminding us that the honest debate is how you want to steer the conversation, and that’s apparently not the abuse that women suffer at the hands of MTT. You make it sound like women who are sickened by children being worked over by money hungry endocrinologists are all nitpicking over the wrong things. You sound mansplainy. And I don’t believe you’re the OP.
Have your thread. There are other places to read gender crit online, I’ll go to them. At gendertrender and 4th wave there’s no problem with women who have anger about this and express it. The women who run those sites make sure that what’s taking place in this thread doesn’t happen there.
Have fun. I’d suggest that if any other anons want to discuss certain things in particular that aren’t um, whatever this is turning into they might not want to do it on an anon board. Too easy for dudes LARPing to call the shots.

>>232715So your argument is that no one should be allowed to discuss any other gender critical subjects because the worst is happening? What the fuck?

My point was is there’s not actually much DEBATE to be had in lesbians being shut down and kids being put on hormones, it’s pretty fucking clear that that is awful and should be stopped. Recognising smaller parts of the larger issue doesn’t minimise it???
I am the OP - whether you believe it or not - and I’m fucking baffled at why you’re so angry at being told that there are anons ITT who believe this is a relevant gender critical issue and that it does link to trans dominance in the female sphere. Again, I’m not stopping anyone from discussing MTT violence or anything; I don’t know how many times I’m going to have to say that before you calm down enough to understand that I think attitudes embodied in drag are supportive of trans acceptance, which then leads to acceptance of trans damage to society. What about that detracts from MTT violence or transing kids exactly? If a building has no foundation it can’t stand up, and IMO things like drag are part of the trans foundation. You clearly disagree, that’s fine, so don’t join in the conversation.

https://graziadaily.co.uk/life/opinion/munroe-bergdorf-women-getting-feminism-wrongHis logical fallacies are laughable and astounding and provide succinct examples of the mental gymnastics employed by transactivists.
A few choice quotes:
>Feminism: the advocacy of women’s rights based on the equality of the sexes. A simple enough concept, right? Wrong! This is 2018 and if the past two years have taught us anything, it’s that nothing is simple any more – especially when it comes to matters of equality and identity.Matters of equality and identity have never been simple (and to describe them as such is patronizing), but they certainly have been made more complicated be transactivists.
>As a society, our understanding of the language we use to describe aspects of gender, sex and sexuality is evolving. We’re beginning to understand that identity isn’t always black and white, it’s more like a sliding scale in which all can self-identify. What makes a woman ‘a woman’ has no definitive answer, nor does it need one.Evolving language does not mean redefining words which are some of the oldest in human language used to describe concrete realities.
His entire argument is predicated on redefining words to mean what he wants them to mean in order to support his argument.
>A woman is more than a vagina, than her ability to bear children, the gender she was assigned at birth, a socio-economic class, marital status or sexual history – yet every one of these points has been used to define and control a woman’s place in society. This is why feminism must serve as an inclusive tool of liberation for all female identities and experiences, not just some. This is where so many women are still getting it wrong.Key word being
female which does not mean
male.
>Almost immediately, I was shut down with a tidal wave of rebuttal, largely from cisgender women who seemed to believe that it was my desire to ‘co-opt the female experience’. Some said transgender issues are a ‘special case’ that not ‘all women’ should be expected to relate to.By identifying women as cis- and trans- he is identifying them as having different sexes which is contrary to the premise of his argument that sex is "a sliding scale in which all can self-identify."
>I stressed that you don’t need to be able to relate to somebody to exercise a sense of empathy. Injustice is injustice and trans women have a place under the umbrella of ‘all women’.Empathy requires that you be able to relate to somebody. Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of another.
How does having empathy for transwomen validate transwomen as women?
>Trans women can’t continue to be an afterthought, especially when statistically we are the most at risk when it comes to issues of mental health, sexual assault, unemployment and homelessness. Our experiences must be approached with the same urgency in which we address the issues affecting cisgender women.Once again, differentiating ciswomen and transwomen.
>In the same vein, we need to see more women who identify as straight standing up for lesbians. More Christian women standing with Muslim women. More able- bodied women standing with disabled women. For feminism to be an empowering sisterhood that all women benefit from, we must stop prioritising the experiences of only certain kinds of women and stand up for women who are different to ourselves.What do all of those examples of groups of women have in common in both de facto and self-identified contexts? Their biological sex.
>But in among the banners, a well-intentioned yet misguided symbol of women’s equality was worn by protestors – the pink pussy hat.The pussy hat was conceived as a direct response to Trump's objectification and harassment of women in his comment about "grabbing pussy." The pink color was chosen to satirize its gender stereotype. Thus the pink pussy hat was a metaphor and not a literal symbol.
>We must learn to see all women’s experiences as worthy of being listened to within feminist discourse. Because the fact is not all women possess a functioning reproductive system, not all women have a vagina, not all women’s vaginas are pink. So, when ‘pink pussies’ are used as imagery intended to unify all women, what they are actually doing is excluding a large amount of women from feeling like they have a voice within feminism.And suddenly the delineation between cis- and trans- is abandoned in order to equate a transwoman's lack of a vagina to that of a ciswoman.

The term TERF and the portrayal of gender critical and radical feminists as abusive are being normalised by media out of their ignorance.
This is why the term TERF should be used unambiguously and not in a way that could be construed as self-referential.
We must not allow transactivists to control the narrative.
A radical feminist group in Labour is threatening to leave, after the party announced it would be backing trans people standing on women-only shortlists. The policy looks set to ignite larger divisions over gender recognition.The UK Labour Party has been papering over an internal rupture over whether or not transgender people can stand for selection. There are no candidates at present, but a group of radical feminists – so-called Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists (TERFs) – want the policy scrapped before it happens.The group’s demands received a blow today. The equality subcommittee of Labour’s ruling National Executive Committee is planning to officially back a statement to rebuffed their demands.The NEC is going further, reports say, and is likely to insist the party stamps out “transphobia and the abuse of members based on their trans identity will not be tolerated in the Labour Party.” A copy of the statement, leaked ahead of the meeting to HuffPost, said “the Labour Party continues to have an inclusive definition of women,” and explicitly affirms that “All Women Shortlists and women’s reserved places are open to self-defining women.”(cont'd)

In depth article about drag king performance including its history and interviews. A few kings noted being treated as subservient by the queens they have performed with.
Absent is discussion of the king's specific feminist views. From the second quote below, can we extrapolate that the older kings described are more in line with radical feminist views?
And a disinterest in drag kings often comes down to pure sexism. “Lesbian identities have always been sidelined…we’ve always slid under the radar,” Julia Applegate says. “I don’t think people are as interested in what women do, period. I don’t think we’re as interesting to people because we’re not as valued.”But the spectrum of drag king performance is remarkably vast, and sometimes kings’ conceptions of masculinity exist in direct conflict with one another. Older kings often seek to perform and critique the sleazier, more aggressive aspects of masculinity, but younger kings speak of wanting to present something softer and sensitive to the audience, performances that push back on stereotypes of what LGBTQ and feminist audiences think of when they think of (typically toxic) masculinity.https://jezebel.com/as-drag-becomes-more-popular-than-ever-drag-kings-refu-1823500621 No. 233056

>>233045I see trans as the male equivalent of, well, of a lot of things, haha, but I also see them as the two thousand teens version of the SRA and recovered memory craze of the nineties. There was a lot of dubious psychotherapy being practiced and a lot of women were seeing therapists who got them to recover repressed memories about worshipping Satan, eating sacrificed babies, being breeders for cults, etc. A lot of families were destroyed and it was widespread. I had a cousin with a shrink like this and we were in a small town. The fervor about it took a while to calm down, and by then the damage was done. Women who trusted therapists came away from them more damaged than they’d ever been. Some parents ended up in jail for nothing more than recovered memories. Elizabeth Loftus has done some super interesting work with the whole recovered memory concept, it’s such junk science.
It’s almost the same thing with trans, the stories all sound like they come from some lame template (I always felt like a girl) (The man in the black robe put a stick up my bum) the only difference is that the damage being done is both emotional and physical, at the level of the individual. For society, I think transing kids is going to be way more damaging than anything we’ve yet seen, with the erasure of whole groups of children who would otherwise have been GNC and gay. If I were one of these kids I’m sure I’d end up raging at everyone by the time I was old enough to understand what had been done to me. Sterile, truly asexual teens and adults who will never have normal, healthy sex lives. It’s beyond sad.

A trans streamer on Twitch (24Cara) left his wife and moved in with a friend, and they have now convinced the friend that they too are trans.

High light of the story: they did not know trannies existed until they met Cara and even then they only thought it was possible to transitition into a woman and not the other way around.

>>233137Only in a society without gender (sociological) would cross-dressing not exist.
>Historically skirts, high heels, and makeup were things that men wore.In which case women wearing those styles would have been cross-dressing.
Historically around the world, most gendered clothing had/has its origins in functionality based on occupations and pursuits held by women versus men.
In the western world, women's clothing has been varyingly modest, objectifying, and restrictive in parallel to the rise of patrilineage, functioning to literally control women (regardless of women's apparent complicity). With the advent of feminism, women began rejecting such oppressive clothing, but clothing was still very much gendered. Women wearing men's clothing was only acceptable in mainstream society when women assumed the occupations of men during the second World War. Since then, women's clothing has expanded to include designs and styles of men's clothing but not vice versa.
Intentional movements by clothing designers to produce androgynous and purely unisex clothing began during the late 60s in parallel to the sexual revolution. But true unisex clothing movements have been limited in scope and longevity due more to the general anatomical differences between the sexes rather than sociological.
Since the 70s children's clothing has been increasingly gender-free (made easier because anatomical differences do not exist in prepubescent children), but the feminine/masculine stylistic dichotomy persists and resurged during the 90s. Was this resurgence due to the influence of choice feminism?
Criticisms of gendered clothing are made only in favor of girls. Clothing which implies that certain activities and occupations are only within the domain of boys is called-out, but boys are never encouraged to engage in activities associated with girls. Why is this? The simple answer is "because patriarchy", but it is often the critics of restrictive girl's clothing who are silent on restrictive boy's clothing.
Girl's and women's clothing (and personal care items) consistently costs more than identical boy's and men's clothing, a fact that is being called out more and more, aka the "pink tax."

>>233151How is he wrong? What other possible reasoning could there be? Sure, some women don't have certain reproductive abilities and intersex people exist, but we can all use criticial thinking when it comes to individual cases like that.
I don't get why people think it's offensive or degrading to define sex in terms of biology, like it's 'reducing' you to your genitals. In context that makes perfect sense, it's a word with functional meaning and that meaning relates to our bodies. If someone reduces us to our bodies, that's their attitude rather than use of a technical term.

>>233090>>233151Men who transition beyond their early to mid 20s are very limited in the degree to which hormones will feminize their appearance.
On the other hand, the effects of testosterone on women who transition are not limited by the age of transition. The absence of estrogen and progesterone alone causes a reversal of female secondary sexual characteristics which results in a masculinizing effect.

The reason they are called transgender is because no matter what they do they will never actually feel the reality of gender, they are looking in from the outside.
>Race is generationalI saw kat blaque also make this argument, it leaves out mixed race people. And I would like to make a note about identifying.
Mixed race people usually, but not always will identify with one side of their heritage depending on how they are treated and percieved(Halle Berry) these people have a right to identify because it is part of their lived experience.
Now, how the fuck do transwomen "identify" as women when not only is it not part of their lived experience which they admit but also is pretty much based on stereotypes? I'm actually thankful Dolezal came along, if nothing shes showing up the trans mental illness for what it really is.

She's shunned by white people, and eventually has to live in the colored section of town where conditions were absolute shit with no running water, etc. all because she didn't look white enough to the government.

Unlike actual women, who would rather dress casually to avoid male attention, especially true for younger girls, troons love the attention it gives them.

I went to a Jordan Peterson lecture and it was amazing. If he’s the guy we have speaking up for us (I still believe that he hates trenders, not all trans people) then I’m okay with that. He’s incredibly erudite and stubborn, and he doesn’t back down or feel overly challenged by retards. He’s not alt right so much as he is a classical conservative and right now I’ll take my allies where I can. His pushback on C16 made a lot of people feel they weren’t alone in the wilderness.

This is a group of pre-established female friends. They're probably comfortable undressing in front of each other. They're probably not comfortable undressing in front of a strange man.

>And not once did they include me in anythingOnce again, they're not his friends. The men are. Why should they invite him to a bathroom he doesn't belong in?
Absolutely none of this strikes me as people trying to disrespect or invalidate him. It does read however, like a man being upset that women aren't constantly catering to HIS needs and all he cares about is "me me me". Everything they said was
to insult ME, everything they did was to
bother ME.

>>233975To add to this, my university installed mixed gender bathrooms in the Arts building. Every second female bathroom became one while the men's bathrooms were unchanged. Which is ridiculous because we already had disabled bathrooms installed that were a lone cubicle and could have been used by anyone.
So if there were 10 female bathrooms, there are now only 5. I find it infuriating as women can suffer from all kinds of things which require them to pee more often like pregnancy and UTIs. I even remember graffiti on the wall saying "I've been sitting here for hours. I hate cystitis." It's disgusting to think someone who needs the bathroom will now have to walk up a flight of stairs or to the other side of the building just to appease trannies. This could even make women late for class. Why weren't some of the men's bathrooms turned into roleplay rooms?

One thing I learned, which is what prompted a lot of discussion on other image boards, was about jazz was put on hormones so early mean surgery to make a vagina out of such a small penis cant be done. I hear its made a lot of self identified transpeople rethink their decision. I guess I wanted a thread were maybe transpeople or detransitioned people could share their stories as its hard to find real trans testimonials which are not the propaganda kind pushed by rapey j penis and the like

A liberal blogger posted this on their instagram story and I'm just baffled that people (liberals especially) can admit that furries are a problem but would never, ever, EVER criticize transgenderism despite it being way more pervasive and threatening in everyday society. and so many trannies are hardcore into furry shit, vore/zoophilia, sissy fetishism, anime and other similar fandoms, like, come on. make the connection already!

>>235018wow that's fucking insane. it's way more obvious that this shit happens in the trans community than furries. furries are still widely mocked and aren't considered and oppressed group or anything. imagine what kind of people would be attracted to a label that renders them blameless, harmless, brave, angelic, and victims. Surely no one would claim this label other than people who really really mean it and have nothing to hide, right?!
It's like there's a small part of their mind that recognizes this shit, but they've brainwashed themselves so good that they're able to pin the accusation on some random low hanging fruit like furries. That's really alarming. If you see injustice but won't call out the actual perpetrators for fear of being a pariah or meanie, and instead take out your frustration on someone else, you're a perfect little pawn and a coward.

Forgot to add, she started working at a place that only hires trans, gay people and women; however most of their employees were "nonbinary" and transmen. It probably influenced her even more, especially considering that one of her closest friends there was an "ex woman" just like her - same choices of clothing, same haircut and similar hair colors, same "this moustache is all I've grown so far since on T so I will proudly show it even though I look like a 13 y/o boy".

Kinda like I disagree with how ddlg has become a trend for 14 year olds. Back in the day kids were goths or emos. Now they have weird subcultures that were derived from adult's bdsm roleplays/kinks.
How did the line blur from actual gender/sex to this little otherkin fairy non binary shit. I've seen a lot of stuff on the internet but I beleive I am hitting a wall in my knowledge about this stuff and why people say it and do it.
My theory is that people used to do shit to be different but there was only so much they could borrow and become. Now everyone is being raised as autists because of the Internet and social media, there's more weird and wonderful things to identify as, and it's all a big contest on who can be the weirdest most special snowflake.
A girl I used to follow is now non binary and I just don't get it at all. I call her they or whatever the fuck, but after all my reading in this, I refuse to believe non binary is a thing.

Jokes aside, this is an example of one of those idiots who think women are one dimensional creatures all about makeup and outfits.
I wouldn't be suprised if he had one of those fetishes where the women do their makeup and make them sissys and was just confused or simply craves the attention that a woman gets. He sounds like an attention whore friend who makes everything about them.
I have a beta friend who always tries to confide in me. I stopped trusting him when he whined about not feeling comfortable and ugly in his body. I offered to help with his makeup and went as far as to buy him a wig. He later confessed he is not fully trans but enjoys women forcefully putting makeup on him and likes the way women's clothes feel. I spewed in my mouth a little, threw out the wig and ended up ghosting him about the makeup date. He still tries to this day reach out when I am sad or angry but I ignore him as I know he's just waiting for an opportunity to do something with me. Or hang around for scrappy seconds. He's cheated on his last gf twice and now he's dating an 18 year old. He failed to tell me her age because he was 'scared i wouldn't approve'

I don't think my points about our society being sex fueled is pointless however. I was just pointing out as long as there is a need for it, it will exist. It's shitty and shouldn't exist, but it sex sells and always will and there's nothing we can do to change that. I was trying to show how media attracts the 'normal types' as you say, and sucker them into thinking this is okay as a job. I wouldn't say the things I touched on as 'pointless'

No. 235189
>>235180seriously. it's because it's so normalized. it also has to do with the conclusions some women come to about sex work. many women seem to think that by doing sex work, they are somehow outsmarting men, making them pay to look at or fuck them, without realizing that in reality they are becoming a slave to men and to sex for money. it's also more dangerous than average work, because it is so personal, not to mention the types of men who need to pay to fuck women, it's not as if they are mentally sound. even other types of sex work, you get crazy men who become obsessed with you, stalkers, even internet stalkers can find where you live. this shit happens because the women are making themselves objects whether they like it or not. ans not because 'eww gross whores are nasty sex is demeaning' that's not the demeaning part. it's telling the world you have nothing to offer but your body to people who don't care about your mind.

Pic related is my girl crush, Madison Paige. A beautiful, masculine yet proud woman who despite being gender nonconforming did not end up being dragged into trans bullshit and likely never will. Young butch women still exist and they are perfection, lemme tell you.
I know a couple of trans women personally who both told me that Madison is "obviously a closeted FTM" because apparently women can't just be tomboys anymore. Both are unironically transbians who constantly shit on actual lesbians out of what's clearly jealousy and butches seem to be the main targets. Transbians will either make fun of them for "looking like men" or calling them FTM trannies in denial. They say the same thing about gender critical feminists too. "Just a bunch of self-hating FTMs".

You really have to bend backwards to make yourself seem on her side and tolerate her "dysphoria" to some degree, or she'll see it as a typical teenage chance to rebel. Doing too much might only make the problem worse.
The best solution might be to get her away from the internet with activities and hoping the problem runs out of steam when the transcult isn't fanning her flames. Get her involved in actual shit that matters, like a teen job, art classes, theater, camping, volunteering with kids or animals.

Totally not mental illness.
This is the third time I've had to come out to my family, first as a gay boy, then as a trans woman and now as a lesbian. Last year, Jolene told MailOnline how she has spent a staggering $92,500 AUD (£50,622) on cosmetic procedures including forehead fillers and jaw slimming in a bid to look like a Bratz doll. She is also planning to have her Adam's apple removed and her belly button 'sewn up' in the next phase of her Bratz transformation.I'm glad I've kept my penis now, that really helps. It all started four weeks ago when I started dating a couple and found myself enjoying the sex with the other woman more.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-5535655/Transgender-woman-reveals-wild-Tinder-dating-past.html No. 236582

So if you don't have a positive third person perspective on your changing body UR A BOY NOW

Sweden initiated gender neutral preschool guidelines in 1996.
Science may still be divided over whether gender differences are rooted in biology or culture, but many of Sweden’s government-funded preschools are doing what they can to deconstruct them. State curriculum urges teachers and principals to embrace their role as social engineers, requiring them to “counteract traditional gender roles and gender patterns.”It is normal, in many Swedish preschools, for teachers to avoid referring to their students’ gender — instead of “boys and girls,” they say “friends,” or call children by name. Play is organized to prevent children from sorting themselves by gender. A gender-neutral pronoun, “hen,” was introduced in 2012 and was swiftly absorbed into mainstream Swedish culture, something that, linguists say, has never happened in another country.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/24/world/europe/sweden-gender-neutral-preschools.html No. 237404

Dunno if you guys watched the Roseanne reboot, but Darlene has ason who likes to wear crazy colors and girls clothes and paint his nails. In the second episode, they deal with the topic of him possibly being bullied at school and Roseanne straight up asks him if he feels like a boy or a girl, and he quickly responds with "A boy". He then says wearing all sorts of weird clothes just feels like him and is more creative.
I was so glad they didn't go the easy transkid route. I mean, he could still be eventually written as gay, but I hope he just winds up being a straight boy who doesn't give a fuck about gendered clothing.

Radical feminists absolutely understand and empathize with why women choose to transition to "escape" womanhood, it's just that we acknowledge that it's a short-sighted solution, it doesn't help elevate women
as a class from the harms of gendered socialization, and we disagree with transactivists that it's "natural" or innate rather than a reactionary coping mechanism.
The sad reality is that, as women, our "feminine" identities are formed within a context that expects our "femininity" to be sexually appealing to heterosexual males. It primes us to have an identity crisis when we are targeted and hurt for our femininity, because it's the same identity template we are told to adhere to and are socially "rewarded" for (whilst butch/masculine women are socially "punished"). Females (arguably males as well, but the degrees of freedom they have are so different from ours) still don't have permission to develop genuine identities.

partisangirl, who can read farsi, posted that nasim wrote something about being trans on her insta in farsi, and nasim's fans were calling her/him? an "iconic vegan sis" (in english), and tagging people to check nasim out. it also seems as if nasim is wearing a breastplate in numerous videos/shots.
it's totally possible. without the suspicious other stuff, i doubt radfems would be analyzing her/his body so much. it's not as if they did that for the san bernardino shooting.
it really could go either way at this point, but radfems do have to be vigilant, because we ARE seeing lots of rape/murders/child porn/bestiality cases, especially, attributed to females now, and even when it's obvious that they're trans, or they post that they're trans, no media revises or makes it clear, at all.

Don't kill yourself.
Ok, I'll tell you what to do.
But first, what not to do:
Don't get a fake vagina. They are literal gaping wounds, they don't heal properly, you have to keep re-opening it and it's very infection prone. It'll make your life worse.
Don't harass women, never ever. I'm not saying you're doing it right now, but this is just an obvious one that people that are socialized like males need to always be reminded of.
You don't need to lift or have a "peak performance" body. You can enjoy being frail and soft. These are not inherent female atributes. A lot of women and men like soft men. Don't worry about your appearance so much.
Now.
Get therapy. Really. Talk about your dysphoria (it's not always gender related, btw - women get it a lot because society sucks), but don't talk about transitioning or else your therapist will likely put on hormones that will fuck your body and worsen your mental state. Hormones really are not the solution. If you want a more "feminine" body, you can use a lot of drag tricks. Also it seems like you have depression. You should focus on that more than the trans thing. It's a rocky path, but it is manageable.
Do what you like - wearing dresses, lipstick, long hair, all that shit. I'll warn you (you probably know this if you do it on the regular tho), people will probably mock you and harass you if you do it publically because people (especially males) are assholes and homophobic to shit. I'd do it only in the comfort of my own home, and get the sweet male priviledge on public. Grown hair is usually not a problem, though, they'll just think you're a metalhead or a hipster.
I just took my time because I really don't want to see people killing themselves, especially the clearly mentally ill. Godspeed.

Transactivists' are ramping up their campaign to censor gender critical speech on Twitter.
Not only have several more Twitter accounts belonging to gender critical feminists been suspended in recent weeks, one woman was interviewed by police and may face criminal charges.
In response to a complaint filed by Susie Green, CEO of Mermaids, the Yorkshire police interrogated Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull @ThePosieParker because of some tweets she posted in 2016 and 2017.Mermaids is a nonprofit organization based in the UK. According to its website, Mermaids “supports children and young people up to 20 years old who are gender diverse, and their families, and professionals involved in their care.”According to Ms. Keen-Minshull’s account, Ms. Green objected to a tweet stating that “the CEO of Mermaids took her 16-year-old to Thailand and got him castrated.”For this tweet and others criticizing Mermaids for promoting pediatric transition, Ms. Keen-Minshull was “interviewed under caution” for 40 minutes on February 23, 2018. She now awaits the Crown Prosecution Service’s decision on whether she will be charged. According to Ms. Keen-Minshull, the potential charges against her are “nuisance, public order, malicious communications compounded with a potential hate crime.”https://4thwavenow.com/tag/posie-parker/https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/fighting-for-free-speech-in-uk/http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/04/05/twitter-transgender-critic-question-police-banned-leaving-uk/ No. 240418

Back to the actual thread topic…
kek I was reading some article today
http://www.womenatwarp.com/dax-trans/and it's astonishing how this person took this experience with his peers / hearing his male peers misogyny , to later validate his transgender choices. Wow instead of even finding better male friends or new female friends, just pin it all on being born differently. Do all trans people think they're the only ones to ever be alienated ?

Trying to get back on track, this doctor made an evaluation of Jazz's book
http://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2018/04/21220/
>There are five pubertal development stages, which are known as Tanner Stages. They go from 1 (no development, prepuberty) to 5 (full adult development). This is what a pediatrician would use to determine the level of a child's development.
>Current guidelines recommend starting puberty blockers at Tanner stage 2 (sparse pubic hairs, minimal testicular growth). This will reduce testosterone to very low levels. Because of this, Jazz’s male genitalia are “locked in” at Tanner stage 2. There is by definition “no enlargement of the penis” to that point. That accounts for Jazz’s child-size penis and the problems with surgery discussed earlier.It's pretty sad but I actually found hilarious to think that grown-ass guy has a penis the size of a child.

Both the old and new guidelines are gross over-simplifications of the physiological differences between the sexes. That the IOC claims to be operating under "the overriding sporting objective is and remains the guarantee of fair competition" (see full quote below) is laughable.
The IOC rescinded the requirement for surgery because, increasingly, surgery is no longer legally required. With the advent of self-ID laws, how long until the IOC eliminates the requirement for hormone treatment?
Under guidelines recommended in November 2015, the IOC no longer requires transgender women to undergo surgery then wait two years. Now, a transgender woman need only to wait 12 months after starting hormone replacement therapy and demonstrate that her testosterone levels are within acceptable limits.“We have to follow the policy of the International Olympic Committee and the International Weightlifting Federation,” Garry Marshall, president of Olympic Weightlifting New Zealand, told the Herald. “They do not acknowledge in any way the gender identity of an athlete other than male or female; they’re not described as transgender.”https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2017/03/22/transgender-woman-wins-international-weightlifting-title-amid-controversy-over-fairness/“It is necessary to ensure insofar as possible that trans athletes are not excluded from the opportunity to participate in sporting competition,” the IOC said in a document (pdf) posted on its website that outlines the guidelines. “The overriding sporting objective is and remains the guarantee of fair competition.“To require surgical anatomical changes as a precondition to participation is not necessary to preserve fair competition and may be inconsistent with developing legislation and notions of human rights,” it added.Former IOC medical commission chairman Arne Ljungqvist, who was among the experts involved in drafting the new guidelines, said the consensus was driven by social and political changes.“It has become much more of a social issue than in the past,” he told Associated Press. “We had to review and look into this from a new angle. We needed to adapt to the modern legislation around the world. We felt we cannot impose a surgery if that is no longer a legal requirement.“Those cases are very few, but we had to answer the question,” he added. “It is an adaptation to a human rights issue. This is an important matter. It’s a trend of being more flexible and more liberal.”https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/jan/25/ioc-rules-transgender-athletes-can-take-part-in-olympics-without-surgery No. 240769

>>234741Miranda Yardley, a transsexual activist, is facing expulsion from the Labour Party over tweets criticising Lily Madigan and transgender ideology.
Biological sex is an immutable bodily fact, determined at conception. Mammals do not change sex. Madigan identifies himself as a ‘trans woman’ thus is by definition male; he is also over 18 years of age, thus an adult human male, which is the dictionary definition of a man. Further, s212 Equality Act 2010 defines ‘man’ as ‘a male of any age’, thus Madigan is both biologically and legally a man. If saying a male person is ‘a man’ is offensive, the corollary is that there’s something wrong with being a man. This is sexism.I have attached several pages of tweets from Madigan where he described women as ‘TERF’; this is a homophobic, misogynistic and dehumanising slur against women, which has been already used to incite violence against women…http://mirandayardley.com/en/how-transgender-ideology-is-destroying-the-labour-party/ No. 241202

An update on the Speaker's Corner court case.
Transgender activist ‘punched radical feminist who was filming her at Hyde Park protest because she thought she was trying to expose her gender identity online’A radical feminist who claims she was attacked by a transgender activist during a protest denies she was filming her in order to 'out' her as transgender online.Tara Wolf [pic related], 26, is accused of assaulting Maria MacLachlan, 61, during a demonstration at Speaker's Corner, Hyde Park on September 13, last year.Ms Wolf, 26, of no fixed abode, denies one count of assault by beating.Under cross examination from Ms Wolf's defense counsel Jodie Anderson, Ms McLachlan denied a suggestion she was seeking to 'out' Ms Wolf as transgender online. She claimed she had pulled out the camera and started filming because she thought she would get some 'amusing footage'.But Jodie Anderson, defending, argued she was deliberately trying to antagonise the protesters and intended to post the footage on her blog, Facebook page and Twitter in a bid to out them as trans.Wolf, who faces one charge of assault by beating, admits being involved in the fracas but insists she was acting in self-defence.Ms Maclachlan, who is active on social media, said: 'I thought it would make some very amusing footage - it didn't really occur to me that someone standing several feet away with a camera would be antagonising when they themselves had voluntarily gone along to this event.'Ms Anderson said: 'As an active tweeter no doubt you are aware that quite often people who identify as trans are targeted and attacked by virtue of their identification.'Ms Maclachlan said she was not even aware the group were trans, saying she thought they were all male.'They were not easily perceived as trans. I don't mind going through them face-by-face if you want to argue the toss,' she said.A judge warned Ms MacLachlan to refer to Ms Wolf using the correct pronoun.http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5607919/Transgender-activist-battered-radical-feminist-Speakers-Corner-brawl.html No. 241631

>>240262I'll never understand this obsession with TERFs and the practice to limit their efforts to a relatively small, isolated space where it's them against TERFs. My friends, family or co-workers basically know nothing about trans activism because it doesn't reach them and some of them are
really transphobic, using slurs and all that (something I, a "TERF", would never do). And elsewhere, transpeople experience violence. Yet, TERFs are the biggest problem…? Come on! It still surprises me because some trans activists I know are educated and actually smart. Still, their activism is absolutely illogical.
No. 241791
>>241687>>241740>>241757That really explains everything! Now it also makes sense that the educated trans activists I referred to avoid any serious conversation with so-called TERFs and instead attack them instantly. I wonder if/when people will start peaking, though. Like I said, trans activism is relatively isolated in my country, however, some of their excessive demands and bans on speaking ("You can't use this or that word, it's transphobic", "You can't focus on
ciswomen in a conversation about
insert topic that affects ciswomen here, it's transphobic…") do reach mainstream, influence non-activists and sometimes intimidate people who are then especially careful and restrained. It's a bit unsettling.

They're also less likely to mutilate their genitals.

Cynical by accident before I found it. What a mistake. Just reading that sub gave me literal brain damage, half my neurons offed themselves after being made to process their bullshit.
They literally take everything out of context and somehow dodge the reason and the sense in everything they post there. It's like looking into bizarro earth. At least they got the name right, their approach to gender is certainly cynical.

>Both Dr. Goldberg and Ms. Kahn surmise that the couples who are using new terminologies are willing to do so because of the hard-won rights L.G.B.T. people have secured, particularly the right to marry. “Now there’s more willingness to push some of those boundaries,” Dr. Goldberg said, “because of greater legal recognition and acceptance.”Being a mother or father is defined by one's sex: the terms describe the sex binary not gender binary. Rejecting the terms themselves as if they describe the gender binary is reinforcing gender.

When you said "real trans people" in your first post, I thought you were referring to those who identify as "true transsexuals" who regard anyone who does not fully transition as not really trans.
There is as much, if not more, infighting over who is really trans among those who do engage in medical transition as between those who transition and the trenders.

In the USA, it's considered abusive to let your teenager get a nose job, but you're a horrible parent if you don't let them completely annihilate their entire body permanently. It's especially ridiculous considering the number of teenagers who go through gender identity issues and are fine in adulthood. I don't know if my anecdotal experience is reflective of how it usually goes, but of about eight trans kids I knew in high school, none still identify as such in adulthood.
Also, doctors put you on track to transition disturbingly quick. One of the two transpeople I know (both ftm) was only identifying as male for SIX MONTHS before they let him go on hormones and get a masectomy. The other was "gender neutral" until about a year ago and the second he decided he was male he got on hormones and he just got a masectomy. So yeah, you don't even have to identify as trans for a year before they put you on hormones and remove your boobs.
Also, the therapy they "require" to assure sane people this is legit is a joke. Basically you just tell them you've felt weird about your gender ~for a long time now~ and they'll let you fucking up your body before even considering alternatives. They treat transitioning as the first solution, not a last resort.

>>246543More and more, trans* is being declassified as a mental disorder which has led to a shift from the gatekeeping model of treatment to informed consent.
…in 2013, when “gender identity disorder” was dropped from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), U.S. psychiatry’s bible for diagnosing mental illness. A new condition called “gender dysphoria” was added to diagnose and treat those transgender individuals who felt distress at the mismatch between their identities and their bodies. The new diagnosis recognized that a mismatch between one’s birth gender and identity was not necessarily pathological, notes pediatric endocrinologist Norman Spack, a founder of the gender clinic at Boston Children’s Hospital. It shifted the emphasis in treatment from fixing a disorder to resolving distress over the mismatch.https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/where-transgender-is-no-longer-a-diagnosis/Informed Consent:
http://www.icath.orgThis article is a balanced look at the pros and cons of each:
http://bioethicsbulletin.org/archive/how-accessible-should-transgender-surgery-beIn subsequent years, many medical journal articles were clearly slanted towards the most lenient application of informed consent and downplay the risks, ignoring the fact that hormonal treatment for gender dysphoria is not approved by the FDA, such as this article asserting that adolescents should have the right to transition based on the specious assumption that adolescents can understand the consequences. Non-consenting parents are "challenges":
The medical management of gender dysphoria has become increasingly accepted as safe and beneficial to adolescents who present with persistent gender identities that are not congruent with their birth-assigned sex. Medically, an informed consent model allows for the tailoring and timing of puberty blockers and hormone therapy that accounts for the adolescent’s physical, cognitive, and psychosocial development. It should be noted that adolescents cannot legally consent to treatment but should be able to assent to treatment with a developmentally appropriate understanding of consequences. Informed consent for treatment of adolescents thus can pose significant ethical and legal challenges when one or both parents are unwilling to consent to treatment.http://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/2016/11/sect1-1611.htmlOnly now is the damage caused to adolescents by such a relaxed treatment model is being revealed (see, Jazz Jennings). Combined with the increasing numbers of people regretting their transition, hopefully the standard of treatment will return to a more conservative approach.
Ideally, medical transitioning adolescents should be prohibited by law. But as long as trans* is considered a medical diagnosis, treatment can be deemed "medically necessary" and will be allowed. Despite hormonal treatments not being approved by the FDA to treat gender dysphoria, legally doctors are allowed to prescribe off-label treatments. The power of class action lawsuits to effect change on a regulatory level has many contingencies…and this comment is already lengthy enough.

The Trump administration is coming under fire for rewriting a federal rule that bars discrimination in health care due to “gender identity.”The Health and Human Services Department rule dates to the Obama administration, a time when LGBT people gained political and social recognition. But a federal judge in Texas said the rule went too far by concluding that discrimination on the basis of gender identity is a form of sex discrimination, which is forbidden by civil rights laws.Under the Obama-era rule, a hospital could be required to perform gender-transition procedures such as hysterectomies if the facility provided that kind of treatment for other medical conditions. The rule was meant to carry out the anti-discrimination section of the Affordable Care Act, which bars sex discrimination in health care but does not use the term “gender identity.”UCLA legal scholar Jocelyn Samuels oversaw drafting of the anti-discrimination rule while in the Obama administration, and says it reflected established legal precedent that transgender people are protected under federal sex discrimination laws. “The case law on whether sex discrimination includes gender identity has been pretty clear for quite a while,” said Samuels.https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/health-care-new-front-for-transgender-rights-under-trumpGender identity is not a protected class under federal law. Several states and localities have laws which protect gender identity specifically or which protect gender identity as sex or which protect gender dysphoria as a disability.
So far, Congress has been slow to pass laws that clearly protect people against discrimination based on gender identity. However, in recent years a series of court decisions and other developments have made more and more clear that federal laws against discrimination based on “sex” apply to discrimination based on gender identity.This site includes an overview of federal, state, and local laws regarding gender identity.

Sorry if this gets a bit OT but I'm so glad this thread exists.
In my life, I've personally known four trans people, two FtM, two MtF.
Out of these four, one genuinely seemed to be sane. I don't understand the reasoning behind transitioning or anything like that, but I've no problem calling her "she". She's got a stable life, does amazing in uni. Her life doesn't revolve around her transition or her gender, it's very much a background thing and aside from "coming out" as trans a few years ago, she pretty much never brings it up in conversation, and never talks about it with people she doesn't know. She's really got her shit together, and you know, has a LIFE OUTSIDE of gender or whatever. Well adjusted.
The other three don't do much for the statistics.
One MtF has a girlfriend who wanted to identify as a guy for a few months and then changed her mind, the MtF also started dating her when she was a few years underage. The MtF has these uncomfortable-to-be-around hyper-feminine mannerisms since coming out, it almost feels like mockery. Long before coming out the MtF also admitted to having a daddy kink so something is seriously not right there.
The first FtM I knew would lose their shit all over twitter if they met someone with their "dead name", because yeah that's completely normal, sorry someone has the same (reasonably common) name as you? Really went for (and still goes for) the whole "cute gayboi" thing. Made a big deal out of not wanting any surgery but whined about not being able to get hormones (did get them eventually). Dismissed people advising them that wearing a binder forever is really not good for you. Had no personality beyond being trans for a few years. Seems to have calmed down now, still on hormones and admittedly passing very well, but I'm only judging on internet presence and haven't actually met in a few years.
Second FtM was a trainwreck. Was on the "he/they" train, would flip at people for misgendering even though she'd wear clothes that deliberately showed off boob and cleavage. Gatekept a lot in the local LGBT community, telling bisexuals, femme lesbians etc that they "didn't seem all that gay" and other shit. Went through several bouts of threatening to kill themselves in relationships for attention. Horrifically manipulative and clearly had issues, spread rumours about people treating her badly for being trans (as opposed to being a manipulative shit). Did the whole "genitals don't have genders" and "I'm a man I have tits get over it" sort of shit. Probably still as insane, haven't had the misfortune to run into them in a long time. Anyone I talked to who went out with them didn't think they were trans at all.
I don't really know what the point of my post is. I've never been able to talk about this kind of stuff before and I guess it's sort of nice to talk about it openly. I don't understand why it isn't a mental illness in many places, but the first MtF I mentioned is one of the sweetest people and I wouldn't take her choice away from her. But it just feels weird to, like others have said, not identify with your own body and be told "that's fine we can change that". It just seems like someone indulging in a fantasy and bringing it to life. If gender roles are bullshit then why do you need to transition at all?
I'm confused but thanks for a vent space.

Lil off topic but there’s a great documentary on Rachel Dolezal on Netflix which shows how she thinks she’s black basically because of childhood trauma and a fucked up home life. It’s an insane coping mechanism to deal with her white parents’ abuse to her black adopted siblings.
It’s really reignited the debate online. So many people are saying she can’t be black because she doesn’t know the “struggle” and she can always revert when convenient. Hmm sounds familiar. They say that she is appropriating the pain and position of black women. There’s also a great moment when a black man says he thinks he’s a white women.

I'm guessing they were referring to the similarity between them - someone adopting a social group that they identify more with and then trying to adapt themselves physically to fit into that group.

No. 247775
>>247753>the reasons they are social constructs are differentthey're not though.
race is a structure based around physical attributes (skin color) to define a person on those attributes. it relies loosely on stereotypes and only came about to classify humans as superior/inferior to one another.
gender is essentially the same, though instead of skin color it's based around biological sex. it still relies on stereotypes and classifies humans as superior/inferior.
the only reason that trans is viewed this way (especially among the medical community) is because SRS used to be used as conversion therapy for gays, and on intersex babies (often without the parent's knowledge or consent) so it's not that sex or gender were viewed by society as some fluid thing or something separate from biology, but they used 'trans' to solve what was viewed as a problem. so all of these people are being railroaded into ruining their bodies when they should be getting mental attention.
No. 247785
>>247775Both are social constructs used as systems of oppression and rooted in biological determinism. This point is not in dispute.
But now, the biology (differences in physical attributes such as skin color) upon which race has been based has been declared unscientific. Modern sociology, informed by modern genetic science, says that dividing people by skin color is not scientifically sound because races are not genetically homogenous.
Dividing people by sex is scientifically sound.
No. 247791
>>247785gender isn't sex though, that's the point.
gender divides people based on a physical attribute in order to justify rational about stereotypes and inferiority. it's the same as how physical attributes based around races justified rational about stereotypes and inferiority. it has nothing to do with whether the biology is sound, it has to do with the idea of using science to justify stereotyping.

Put another way, the notion of race is challenged because it relies on culturally assigned stereotypes and also because the physical attributes on which they are based are now considered unscientific.
The notion of gender is challenged solely because it relies on culturally assigned stereotypes.
My entire point was to explain how race as a social construct is now defined and thus race and gender cannot be exactly analogized.
