there's an insistance i'm seeing from allies lately that trans people must emulate the "respectable" behaviour "lgb" people did to get acceptance and the respectable behaviour is just "concede to your assigned sex" what gets me is that they think they've genuinely solved the problem - ThreadSky

It's even more insane because none of our rights ever were won by 'being respectable'. You don't bow down to the slave owner in the vain hope that he'll one day free you.

That's ridiculous.

they don't even seem to see it as bowing down, though, because from their perspective, your "gender" is still valid

it's just that your assigned sex must take primacy over it where it comes to access to spaces and events, and they will never let you change your sex

Honestly the idea of calling myself Transsexual has been growing on me more and more just because I want to emphasize that I Am Changing My Sex. It's possible and I'm doing it and they can't stop me. Cis people have fucked the idea of gender v sex to death

i just go "trans" usually but i definitely prefer transsexual to transgender

It’s also not acting like an entitled male who can make women feel uncomfortable and girls feel unsafe. That’s not respectful or respectable.

janes2024.bsky.social•20 days ago

No. It’s just not acting like an entitled male.

LGB didn’t try to take away the rights of women. Trans women did.

volition-newlove.itch.io•20 days ago

your idea of "rights of women" is just "women knowing their place"

even wollstonecraft only chose the term to play off paine

janes2024.bsky.social•20 days ago

No. You want to destroy women’s rights and freedoms. You only want rights for men.

weird how the men are on your side

janes2024.bsky.social•20 days ago

Weird how men are in your side. Except not really because trans ideology is actually a mens rights movement. They really don’t want women to have private spaces or sports.

men are significantly more likely to take your stance
