Okay I’ll probably regret asking this, but I’m just reading some papers on things and as someone who has avoided trans-discourse because I don’t have time to deal with idiots while I’m working through my own shit….
But how the FUCK do TERFs fit intersex folk into their rigid binary concept of gender and sex??? Men are evil >:[ Women are innocent uwu Trans are either predators, victims or confused >w<
But like…. where do intersex people lie here? Like, what is the apparent logic? Like????? Sure say sex is innate and gender doesn’t exist and is just some thing of socialization blah blah blah blah, yeah but like????????? Intersex hello??????????????????????????????????????
Someone please explain.
I am confusion.

To the best of my knowledge, they don’t believe intersex people even exist.
I hope that is a joke, but would not be shocked if it wasn’t.

as everyone knows i have quit tumblr. i originally joined when I was closeted as an escape from my family who are not open minded. i had posted my early transition progress frequently including when I found out that I’m intersex. when i started this blog i had short blonde hair and walked around naked constantly because all of my male clothes made me super dysphoric. a year after i joined engaged to a guy named Luke who i never ever showed pics of or even introduced to any of my irl friends, mainly because he was physically and sexually abusive and i didn’t want pics of someone who i was terrified of on my blog. i used to make a bunch of awful jokes and even made a joke blog about not wiping my ass under the name of Mark Skidz as a coping mechanism with all the bullshit in my life. then my house caught on fire and shortly after i started getting sexually harrased by a distant relative on facebook then after that tumblr started to become toxic to me when i got cyberbullied by over 500 TERFs, i also got sexually harrased on tumblr in my anons (many of which i was stupid enough to answer instead of just deleting them). then i found out Luke was cheating on me constantly and that was basically the final straw for me which caused me to post a bunch of suicidal posts on here and basically caused my life to go completely downhill since, i did have a girlfriend for a brief period she was cute and supportive but it just didn’t work out because we had too many problems of our own. after that break up i decided to take a break from social media. but shortly after i quit without warning because i couldn’t post on here anymore because it was too painful for me. long story short this post is my final goodbye. thank you to everyone who supported me over the years until we meet again

*tags post ‘radfem’*
Breaking news: moron doesn’t understand what tw tags are
I know how they work, but you must realise that just tagging ‘radfem’ is going to get you attention from radfems?
You must not realize you can ignore it?
You must realise you can not post in our tags?
Again, you must understand what trigger warning tags are?
I understand, you just don’t. They’re tags where you say ‘tw *thing*’ or ‘*thing* tw’.
You just don’t understand that because you want to trigger tag it ‘radfem’ then it’s going to end up in the radfem tags…
No radfem I’ve ever met in my fucking life has ever tagged their radfem bullshit as “tw radfem”. Blacklisting tags is specific, if you dont wanna see radfem shit you HAVE to filter out “radfem” dumbshit.
But you’re not writing radfem stuff. You’re writing about radfems.
You’re just mad that radfems dared to interact with you when you posted in our tags. If you can’t handle it then get the fuck out of them.

Lmao, saying that while using radfem tags…
If you’re looking for radfems to block, just say so.
I put them there as tw tags, some ppl dont wanna hear this shit lmfao, grow up child.
I’m not the one fishing for attention. ♀️
Kinda seems like you are, cuz you’re still yapping like a broken puppy.
Nah. I follow the radfem tag. Your attention seeking post popped up on my timeline. I’m not the one actively seeking out attention here, that would be you.
And you got the attention! That should make you happy! :) But there are better, healthier ways of going about that.
I literally said “stay away from me” and you took that as an invitation to talk to me? Moron. I cant wait for yall to die out.
The discrepancy between your post and the tag radfem made me want to talk to you.
Also, I don’t know if you know this, but this is the internet. Unless you block, anyone can talk on your posts.
I don’t know if you understand this, but some people only block the tag “radfem” instead of the tag “tw radfem” that’s why the tag is there, sweetheart.
And guess what! You get to choose who you talk to! If you dont like my shit, you can beat it ❤

If all 50 of you can’t handle me, leave my blog ❤
I can handle you just fine. I deal with a lot of dumbasses and children
I hope you dont stay around those children for long.
Poor children? For what? Having someone who cares about their education?
Having to be near someone like you
A nice, smart person who not only cares for children’s education but has been told by multiple people that they’d make an excellent teacher because they know how to explain something to people in a way they understand?
i think you would be a very good teacher @radkindoffeminist
Anyway, if you’re a radfem, stay the fuck away from me
Imagine being such a dipshit that you don’t understand that “#tw radfem” is used to denote content as triggering without shoving it into “#radfem” main tag content, and then screaming and crying when people looking for #radfem content are finding your #radfem tagged content, and then flipping your shit when people tell you this wouldn’t have happened if you simply used the #tw radfem tag instead.
Rub two brain cells together and realize that people who are triggered by radfems are 1. blacklisting the word “radfem” as a whole, meaning actual tagged #radfem content does not need trigger warnings because it’s still removed in the first place, and 2. don’t fucking venture into the #radfem tag in the fucking first place, so again, radfems do not need to tag #radfem tagged content with yet another #tw radfem tag.
Like seriously just admit you’re braindead
I dont know how else to explain this to you. People blacklist tags by using the exact words used in the tags, for example, instead of putting “tw rape” ppl usually just blacklist “rape” it’s the exact same with radfem shit, because no radfems tag their stuff as “tw radfem” most ppl just have the tag “radfem” blacklisted, which is why I put it there.
I’m not freaking out, I’m explaining this to a bunch of idiots who think it’s ok to harass someone (some of you from multiple side accounts btw) because they dont like their cult.
when t-rfs talk about “peaking” people what they’re talking about is grooming btw
they will for real dedicate/circulate entire threads detailing extremely specifically how to recruit people into their ideology, often through explicitly manipulative and sometimes even outright abusive means. they gloat and joke openly about doing it to friends and partners and coworkers and younger siblings and anonymously to young trans people on the internet. you see this happening pretty much everywhere regardless of whatever blog you’ve clicked on and are hate-reading, it’s integral to their entire ideology of which would probably honestly collapse without it yet they accuse trans people of being in a cult
look at any blog in the “des-sted dysphoric” community to see innumerable further examples of this. they wear that title like a badge, very conversion therapy-esque. i’ve seen these people openly discuss how to convince their trans male and transmasculine friends into detransitioning. threads upon threads of advice on how to do this. a lot of times they even journal about it on their blogs, like “omg my TIF friend wants top surgery how do i peak them asap”. this is innately unnatural and predatory behavior
wanted to offer an example of the type of shit they’re spoonfeeding to (usually young) dysphoric people in this community that they’re attempting to indoctrinate, notice that they name-dropped explicitly anti-trans books like abigail shrier’s “irreversible damage” (best-selling in conservative circles for a period of time upon its release) and recommend following “desisters” on social media to establish an echo-chamber
This is something I just shared on FB about my experiences as a patient escort. Just thought I’d put it on here too.
Alright y'all. Prepare for a long post, but one you should read.
Some of you know, but some of you don’t, that I volunteer at Planned Parenthood about twice a month. My official title is Volunteer Clinic Escort. My role is to safely get patients and family into the clinic safely, with privacy, and with a friendly face. Not all Planned Parenthoods (PP) have these, but the clinic where I volunteer does because we have loud, abrasive, volatile, threatening, verbally abusive and dishonest anti-choice protesters who harass people in the clinic. I would like to tell you about my experiences with them and with patients who talk to me as I stand outside with my umbrella and vest.
(I would like to note that this is not the place to tell me that abortion is wrong, that I should not support PP, that I need to stop what I’m doing. I’ve heard every argument before. In fact, I’ve had every arguement screamed in my face. You’re welcome to your opinion, but I will not be acknowledging it on here, and I ask that others ignore dissenters too. This post isn’t about me and why you think I’m wrong. It’s about what I see every time I volunteer.)
When I am volunteering, I am outside and often have patients and family members talk with me. I’m obviously not there to counsel or to offer advice medically one way or another, but I am a friendly ear and people just need to talk sometimes. Also, when volunteering, patients entering the clinic are verbally harassed by the anti choice protesters almost immediately and, while we don’t encourage it, they often yell back. The protesters don’t listen.
On my very first day, I had a person head into the clinic. As I smiled to her and went to get the door, an anti-choice protester (ACP) yelled “Mama! Don’t kill your baby!” The patient immediately responded tearfully “my baby is dead. My baby is falling out of me right now. I didn’t do anything.” The ACP, without missing a beat, screamed back through her child-sized megaphone “No he isn’t! Your doctor lied to you! These murderers just want your money!” I ushered in the patient as gently as I could while my co-volunteer told her kindly that those people didn’t matter and that in a week they wouldn’t even remember what they heard here.
In the year and a half I’ve been doing this, we have had a ACP sneak into the clinic and threaten to burn the place down. The police did nothing. We had two other ACPs try and enter the clinic to tell patients they would adopt their babies. We told them to get off the property and when they didn’t, we called the police. Eventually the ACP returned to the narrow strip of lawn they stand on at the edge of the parking lot, and luckily so, because the police never showed again.
My clinic, luckily, has never faced extreme violence while I was there. But other PP and health care clinics are not so lucky. They are burned down, have bombs planted, have clinic escorts and workers physically harmed.
They are shot at and three people die.
I have had patients tell me that they will be killed by their partner if they have an abortion. I have been told that their partner will kill them if they DON’T have one. I’ve been told how people with physical disabilities cannot carry a child without side effects so severe they may not survive. I’ve had patients explain that their mental health is at risk if they go through with the pregnancy. I’ve had patients come in with a wanted pregnancy that ended in miscarriage and they needed PPs help to safely remove the tissue. I’ve seen people come in who admit to being addicted to drugs and know they cannot go through this pregnancy.
Planned Parenthood helped all these people, not just with medical care, but with helping abused patients find help to escape violent partners. Helping those who want to conceive find fertility doctors. Helping drug addicts find resources to become healthy.
All the while, the ACP stand outside, screaming and hollering, telling women that they are murderers and whores and that they will burn for murdering their babies. But it’s ok, they do it out of love. They scream at these people and tell them awful things and then beg to have the patient come talk with them.
They don’t see the hypocrisy.
It is a rule to not engage with the ACP at all. In the year and a half I’ve been doing this, I’ve said maybe a total of 50 words to the group, all of which are some form of “you are on our property, step back right now.” I may not engage them, but we can make eye contact and make them believe we are listening. We do this so the ACP begins shouting at me, and not a patient getting air outside. I would much rather be shouted at than have them scream at a patient.
When I am being yelled at, I have been called: a murderer, a nazi, a slavery supporter, a bad mother, a bad wife (they do not know if I am married or if I have children), a witch, a lesbian, a liberal, a member of satan’s army, a Muslim lover, a bitch, a slut, and evil. Some of these things are true and some are perfectly fine things to be, but to the ACP they are all bad.
Sometimes we have patient partners come talk to the protesters. They try and explain to the ACP why they are there with their partner. I’ve heard them tell the ACP every single reason, and every single time, the protesters still tell them they are wrong and a bad father and a supporter of Satan. Every. Time. And they call this love.
Since Trump took office, one of his first orders signed was a Global Gag Rule. People thought that this rule meant that no US money would go to pay for abortions overseas, but in fact, US funds have never paid for abortions and haven’t since 1973. Even in the US, because of the Hyde Amendment, no federal funding goes to pay for abortions.
What this gag rule now does, however, is prevent money from going to clinics that even mention abortion as a method of family planning. They don’t have to perform them. If they are mentioned at all in pamphlets or classes, they lose foreign aid money. This means that now they can’t provide birth control, wellness checks, prenatal care, or classes.
This will cause unwanted pregnancies. This will cause people to seek out abortions, often in unsafe condition.
This will cause people to die.
Roughly 1/3 people with a uterus will have an abortion in their life. I haven’t spoken to everyone who has had one, but I’ve spoken to more than most. No one gets an abortion out of malice. No one gets an abortion just to end the life of a fetus, just for kicks. No. One.
Planned Parenthood provides important health services, including abortion. They do this despite the risk of physical bodily harm, every day. People like myself stand outside PP to protect patients because it is important.
We. Will. Not. Stand. Down.
I will continue to volunteer, even though since Trump was elected, the ACP have gotten more and more aggressive in their tactics, since they believe Trump supports their actions. I will continue to walk these patients inside, to get help, because it is important and right. I will continue to fight Trump the slew of anti choice people supporting him. I will continue to support choice even though I know I will lose friends and will face hatred from people I know.
Planned Parenthood is important, and we will not stand down.

PEOPLE WITH A FETUS. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME. EVERY FUCKING TIME.
I keep reading these brilliant posts and then right at the end the author casually dehumanizes women and I am so, so tired. Fuck the trans cult and their self obsessed autogynephiles for doing this. Fuck them all. We’re burning and you just keep on kicking us. We have decades of hard fought progress torn from us with the flick of a pen and you don’t even have the decency to NAME us! Get the fuck away from women, get the fuck away from feminism, just get out.
“People with a uterus”
Those patients you claim you’re protecting are WOMEN. HUMAN BEINGS. Not fetus or uterus holders. Goddamit, why can’t genderists who claimto do good things actually begood people?
When the people who are supposed to support us let us down repeatedly.
Look at a great post ruined by Bigots that literally oppose equalized language.
And wow…Goosey Mainframe went into all sorts of bigotry and villainizing trans folks.
hey terfs you guys don’t get to claim ur ‘good people’ when u talk about the immigrant list Trump is gonna make, but not about how inherently racist and fascist it is, oh no! but claiming that there’ll be a ‘terf’ list next. as if we didn’t need more proof you’re all racist and white supremacist collaborators that couldn’t give a shit about anyone but yourselves
Every single hard TERF of note is middle aged to boomer and white.
Brennan, Bindel, Burchill, Hungerford, Bev Jo, Morgan, Murphy, Moran, Greer, Gallus Mag, Jeffrey’s, Raymond…and on and on.
Everyone else is fodder and background noise.
even so, saying “people that can carry fetuses” literally means JUST THAT WOW OMG. Some cisgender women are incapable of having children. Some trans people are. This isn’t erasure, it’s just accurately naming a group of people who can bear children.
As a lot of sewing and costube nerds know, Bernadette Banner just released her book on sewing, a basic guide for sewing and mending based on historical techniques. She has a successful YouTube channel where she teaches these techniques and occasionally features other costubers, experts, etc. Naturally, in writing her book, she’s transferred some of the personal aspects that are part of any YouTube channel’s branding, such as illustrating her work with narratives and introducing the people who are featured in the book.
Because she has used people’s correct pronouns and approached this book in an inclusive way, it seems a group of TERF activists have organized and bombarded the book’s Amazon page with bad reviews, claiming the book has an “agenda” and is “political” by using the preferred pronouns of the people featured. Of course, this is this absurd – YouTube personalities, even those with substantive content who aren’t just influencers, are exactly that? Personalities? So of course there will be personal narratives, and why should someone’s identity be left out of their narrative, especially if the reason they need to tailor a garment is a gender reassignment surgery? I also imagine it may be triggering and difficult, as Banner has an openly non-binary sibling who has also been featured in her videos.
All this to say, you can go to Amazon and report these bigoted reviews or mark them as unhelpful, and if you have a copy of the book and like it, this is a good time to leave a nice review. The book was published less than a month ago, and bad Amazon reviews can tank new publications or push Amazon to force the author to make changes in some cases (though I think only with digital books, but as there’s a kindle edition and we all know that Amazon takes money from authors whose books are returned, I’m hoping these TERFs aren’t buying and returning Kindle editions just to leave shitty reviews). Anyway, it’s important to authors not to get dragged down by a TERF swarm, especially so early after publication. And it’s even more important to keep pushing back and showing TERFs that they can’t keep pulling this shit.
I’m honestly just so tired of their bullshit. Please find a non-destructive outlet for your trauma.
couldn’t agree more. got a lil excited about how well this person phrased it. the best use for this video/these arguments is curbing someone’s interesting in transphobic radical feminism; someone who is firmly a terf will gain nothing from this
please block @/gentlegifs and @/rad-moods, they’re terf/radfem blogs who break people’s dnis, make stimboards without crediting gifmakers, and even post gifs without crediting videomakers, and at least one of the two literally has banners that say “dni if trans” while definitely using trans people’s gifs that they stole!!
