why the hell are we still allowing narcs to use threats of self harm or suicide to guilt trip people
if a self absorbed genderhair is going to kermit over being told “gay dudes dont wanna fuck you” over the internet, which is very unlikely to begin with, it is not the fault of the people who are done with trancels being entitled to gay people’s bodies. there is clearly more going on than just that

I have been increasingly exhausted with gender. The roles, the aesthetic expectations, the discussions and politics. I don’t want there to be gender. I want a world where people don’t have separation between each other due to genitalia.
Wouldn’t it be nice if that didn’t exist and we just were attracted to whoever we’re attracted to, and genitals weren’t a conversation piece until you started talking about having sex? Like “hmm I really like you, maybe we should bang. Oh gee you have X, that means we’ll do YGZ kind of sexual activities, cool cool.” Because we wouldn’t have the hangups about certain genitalia, it would be about the person we’re attracted to themselves.
And having kids is its own separate discussion, like “oh hey look we have the kinds needed for that, or, we’ll have to make arrangements for that,” just like any couple/moresome might have to discuss fertility.
/utopia dreams
A world without gay men and lesbians, oh sorry, “people with genital hangups” is not a utopia
It’s basic and unoriginal homophobia to imply that a perfect world wouldn’t have homosexuality
These homophobes couldn’t be anymore vocal about their hatred of homosexuals and homosexuality yet there are homos out there who STILL INSIST on deepthroating that hetero boot
You know? Terfs really hurt my brain. Think I need a bit of a cleanser. So here are some of my favorite trans creators
1.alice Caldwell kelly. She’s on the podcasts ‘well there’s your problem’ it’s about engaging disasters. And ‘trash future’ about big corporations making the world a worse place.
2. Viki 1999. She makes amazing videos about different political ideologies and some responses to right wing chuds.
3. Jammidodger. He mades a wide variety of videos. Mostly him reaching to stuff related to lgbt+
Please add your oun favorite creators!
“Terfs really hurt my brain”
That’s a lie right there, how can terfs hurt something that doesn’t exist ?
gsa club member: what’s your opinion on adding sapiosexuality to our list of recognized aspec identities? also, what did you think of our presentation panel on the struggle of maintaining femininity in demigirl-hood and other feminine-aligned genders in a butch/masc dominated world?
me:
way to equate “queer” with “shitty liberal politics”. thanks good analysis
i hate to be the one to have to inform you of this but queer theory is shitty liberal politics
my school’s gsa’s biggest project was making (shittily designed) pronoun pins and handing them out all over school. gsa also now stands for “gender/sexuality association” instead of gay/straight alliance. no more gay, only gender
ours too! it’s gender/sexuality instead of gay straight as of last year.
they’re weeding out all the homosexuality and replacing it with gender feelings
Reading through The Gay Revolution, Faderman keeps coming back to this idea that homosexuals in America ONLY managed to succeed in their activism by building on a foundation of COMMUNITY, recognizing that there were THOUSANDS just like them
Lesbians and gay men needed to know they EXISTED as a cohesive whole before they could really conceptualize changing how they were treated in the U.S.
Obviously it’s complex, and work was already being done by homosexuals prior to larger, national groups. But it makes me think about how lesbians and gay men are threatened by “evolving language” today
How can young gay men and lesbians come together, survive, fight, or thrive when our reality is twisted to the point of being unrecognizable? How can you defend or even comprehend your place in a community of oppressed individuals without words to describe yourself?
One of the greatest threats of “evolving understandings” of homosexuality is that a gay man or lesbian can genuinely look at their internal experience of exclusive same-sex attraction and worry “Am I the only one like this?”
In a space where “gender” is inaccurately made into the foundation of the gay experience, a homosexual can feel that they are alone in their “genital obsession.” That is horrifying. That is something I will never forgive or forget
I have something you’ll never have: the privilege of sharing my body and sexual pleasure with other adult males. Your brimming fury and jealousy of this reality, manifested by transing the definition of “gay” to include opposite-sex intercourse, and using slurs like TEHM to “put me in my place”, does nothing but increase my pride in being homosexual. You’re not us. You can’t have what we have and you can’t take it away from us, and it drives you crazy. It must be pretty special if you want it so bad.
women: we need our female-only spaces to escape male violence. by letting males who identify as women into these spaces we lose our sense of safety and we’re exposed to more violence from men. is that really what you want?
I’m getting really sick of the lesbian community’s lack of acceptance of trans girls.
Lesbians by definition are attracted to woman so claiming that you “could never be attracted to or have sex with a trans girl” is simply transphobic and nothing else.
Lesbians are not attracted to males so idk what u r talking about, please wise up and start acting normal
I am a girl which makes me by definition not male so fuck off with your transphobia and lesbophobia
But your anatomy by definition makes you male
“Lesbians by definition are attracted to woman”
which is exactly why we aren’t attracted to you, mr. smegma !
You know, the more I see, I think a lot of TERFs don’t want LGB and they actually just want L.
I want more L, because firstly I’m oppressed as a woman and also discriminated as a lesbian.
I want more awareness about us, we are constantly sexualised and when I walk with my girlfriend I hear old men saying “oh you two, why don’t you kiss?” “are you available for a thressome?” and so on.
I love so much my brothers G and B, but I fight more for L and Bi women.
I hope you are a child and you will grow up to understand what us, lesbians, go through everyday.
DDL ZAN is a law that should protect homosexual and trans people, but has a lot of flaws.
Radfems! I want to talk to you about what is happening in Italy, the Chamber of Deputies passed this law and its now heading to the Senate.
DDL Zan is simply an excuse to implement the SELF-ID and because of the pandemic the government is taking the chance to pass.
If it pass, it will be a disaster because it will implement the “gender identity” and everybody could identify as a woman.
In Italy this would be very dangerous, this country is very misogynistic and anti women, we have to fight for us, because otherwise our oppression won’t be seen as such anymore.
Domestic abuse is a serious question here and I can’t stand to see how being a woman will be considered a feeling.
Radfems make pressure to not pass this, but especially awareness about that.
Our future, Italian women’s future, is at risk.
I can’t accept a law that protect me as lesbian, but not as a woman. If I want, I can hide my sexuality, by I can’t hide my sex.
We need to protect women and I want to protect all of my sister.
BEING A WOMAN IS NOT A FEELING, STOP DDL ZAN.
It’s not at risk.
In no country where this is working has TERF fearmongering ever come to pass legally. In fact the only people self iding to do the shit terfs are warning about are terf allies are right wingers trying to prove a point no one but they are making.
Misogyny is very bad, especially in the South of the country it’s like being stuck in the 60’s, a woman doesn’t have easy access to an abortion, if we are raped it’s our fault, if we are killed by a man parter everybody will talk about how he was a nice guy.
There is a huge pay gap and unemployment for us is very bad, since one of the first questions we are being asked during a job meeting is if we want children/family, so they can put in trash our job application.
Femicide rates are so high and because of lockdown the reported cases are higher than usual.
A woman knew she would end up dead because of her ex-boyfriend, so she payed HER OWN funeral in advance, this happened in mid February 2021. Translate and read the article.
We are at risk, because DDL ZAN will protect people from gender identity discrimination, which is bullshit because oppression is based on sex otherwise I wouldn’t be fucking catcalled every time I walk down the streets.
This is the tip of the iceberg, if DDL ZAN passes at 99% they will pass a SELF ID law and is pure craziness.
Now I’ll leave here a video.
A video that summarise what us as woman have to endure everyday in Italy. A man catcalled a group of girls of the ages between 15 and 17, he walked out his car and negated he catcalled them.
I want to talk also about a 22 years old girl who have raped while JOGGING at around 7 in the morning. DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT IS GOING ON IN ITALY?! Translate and read the article.
OR a 17 years old girl brutally killed by her 19 years old boyfriend, because he was “jealous”. Her body was burned and thrown down a downhill or something similar. The boy the media has been described as a “nice guy”. She wanted to broke up with him, but she was scared. Translate and read the article.
This is what us Italian women fear everyday, we are oppressed by men who want to control our lives and nobody wants to protect us.
DDL ZAN would be another way to keep us silent and in our place.
I am lesbian, but in first place I am a woman. It’s not fun, but I can hide my sexuality if I feel in danger, but I can’t hide that I am a woman. A law that protects me as a lesbian is useless if I’m not protected as a woman.
I can’t accept to stand quiet and see how all my sister suffer, I am a lesbian, but firstly I’m a woman and a radical feminist.
SPREAD THE WORD, STOP DDL ZAN AND PROTECT WOMEN.
sorry for grammatical errors
Again while what you and southern Italian women go through is fucking bad the trans effective parts of this argument are literal lies and fucking bullshit.
Which is why you buried it in this fucking stuff.
Again NO actual LEGAL doom/gloom actions that Terfs cite actually happens in ANY legal or political courts in any nation.
OP is outright lying and scamming people vs trans people with horrible acts that have nothing to do with this law and will not change in the slightest way even if they win.
Because it’s bullshit, it has nothing to do with actual fucking trans people.
And she should be ashamed of herself for hurting feminism this much by fucking openly lying this much.
When we can’t give to our oppression a name anymore, we’ll have to suffer even more.
Why should I lie about something that affects me so much.
Gender identity hurts so much women, because classify being a woman as a feeling.
I don’t feel, I AM A WOMAN.
Just say you are a privileged misogynist that has never seen how some women live.
Be ashamed of yourself.
You are closing your eyes in front of a woman that is talking how this law can make my life harder.
How the fuck can I fight for my rights if I’ll be considered a feeling?
You are lying literally and because you’re either purposefully dishonest or conned.
Gender Identity Laws have never once operated as transphobes claimed in any nation they have been cleared in. Not one ever, all your posts of bad stuff to women has zero relation to trans people or this fact.
None.
You don’t feel? well you don’t read either, not the law, not the standards of care in transition, not anything that isn’t bullshit apparently.
Why should you lie? Hatred, bigotry, empowered by punching down…there is no actual tangible reason to strike out vs the legal needs of 0.5% of the population.
Wait half that because let’s be honest your main target given your reblog just now is trans women.
You life literally can’t be made harder, literally can’t not in any remotely actual IRL legal way.
Unless you mean it’ll be harder in being an abusive asshole.
You’re spouting fucking fiction.
Where has gone the saying “Believe the victim always”.
Why should I lie about my situation, please come to Italy and see the situation with your own eyes.
Saying that being a woman is a feeling would make our life even harder, because men would start to treat us even worse.
Do you know what happens when a man kills his wife and children here? Or he kill himself or (sometimes) goes to jail, but the media portraits the killer as a good dad, a good family man. And the woman doesn’t have justice.
Every x time we have a debate about why we use the word feminicide and the stupid men say it’s “only a homicide”, if this kind of laws passes and maybe after will pass one about inclusive language what do we do? We won’t even able to name our oppression, the violence and abuse we face.
You are insensible and you are covering you eyes, because the reality it’s much harder than the Internet.

Allistics: “This proves that all autistics are violent animals, they shouldn’t be allowed to own guns!”
*Allistic person kills an autistic person*
Allistics: “Well you can’t blame them. They probably just snapped because the autistic bothered them. They’re basically a martyr. They shouldn’t be punished imo.”
Performative activism should warrant a punch in the face. For now, it deserves all the call-out action it needs. My Black life isn’t for you to use for clout or feel better about yourself. - jess
Like, protest fatigue is absolutely a thing, I’m not denying it, but it kind of blows my mind how many thinkpieces about the psychology behind why protest movements tend to flare up in the summer and die down in winter completely overlook the fact that winter is cold.
biden signed a whole bunch of executive orders today, all of which aiming to undo damage done by trump. i’m by no means a fan of biden, he’s a centrist at best and has a history of sexual assault and i despise how he’s pushing for “unity” instead of accountability right now, BUT here’s the full list of executive orders, because a little good news is good for you sometimes (but mostly because the news sites with this stuff are behind paywalls):
Restarting visa processing for people from the affected countries from the travel ban, and focusing on “addressing the harm caused to those who were prevented from coming to the US because of the ban”
Reinstating ties with the World Health Organization (after Trump withdrew the US’s membership and funding last year) and making Dr. Anthony Fauci the head of the American WHO delegation
Stopping the Border Wall construction and immediately terminating the national emergency declaration that allowed Trump to redirect billions of dollars to the wall
Revoking the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline’s construction
Overturning Trump’s executive order that had stopped federal agencies, contractors, and other institutions from holding diversity and inclusion training
Immediately ending Trump’s 1776 Commission, a committee that aimed to give American students “patriotic” history lessons, which were widely criticized by historians and civil rights leaders as being “racist lies” and “nationalist propaganda” that whitewashed history and greatly downplayed how bad slavery was
Protecting the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA) and keeping Dreamers (people who were brought to the US as children) from being deported
Extending the national ban on evictions
Overturning a Trump executive order that had pushed “aggressive efforts” to find and deport immigrants
Blocking the deportation of Liberians, a group Trump had targeted specifically
Designating Susan E. Rice as the leader of a “robust, interagency” effort requiring all federal agencies to make “rooting out systemic racism” central to their work, and requiring federal agencies to submit detailed reports on equity in their ranks within 200 days
Reinforcing Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, to require that the federal government does not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity, a policy that reverses actions by Trump’s administration
Undoing Trump’s orders that slashed the size of several national parks (Trump had wanted to auction off parts of national parks and protected land, primarily to oil companies) and halting the oil and natural gas leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
Restoring the directorate for global health security and biodefense at the National Security Council, a group Trump had disbanded, and requiring social distancing. A mask mandate would be met with significant legal opposition, but this order also requires masks on all federal property and by all federal employees
And lastly: immediately freezing all of Trump’s recent regulations he’d tried to sneak in at the last minute, so that the new administration can examine them much closer
also, this wasn’t an executive order, but in case anybody missed it: biden also chose rachel levine, a transgender jewish woman, as the assistant health secretary! from what i’ve seen, rachel seems great and has done a lot of good as pennsylvania’s health secretary, so that’s very exciting
