The most romantic thing you can do when you’re in love with someone is giving them room to just exist, they do not belong to you

I had this random dude at the party call transgender sex workers in our district ugly and I just look him up and down judgementaly as he backtracks and says: "Come on it's a joke oh my god!" Like they fr always do this shit, it's not all that scary.

a lot of the trans guys earlier who were like "i cant call people out for being bigots in public 🥺 its too dangerous" have this very skewed perception of how confrontation actually happens and vastly overestimate the actual danger

the most textbook example of "male socialization" on earth is keeping your head down & not rocking the boat when your buddies sexually harass women & yet the most cowardly trans guys on earth will insist it's ~being raised as girls~ that prevents them having solidarity with women

being a trans guy and blaming your cowardice and inability to stand up to misogynistic violence on being ~socialized as a woman~ is an insult to all the сis women who make it their business to stand up for their trans sisters, go fuсk yourself loser
(de)lulu@dommedromer

While I agree, I think ppl forget that many trans men who transition later in life (me incl) have lived a whole life being socialized & perceived as a woman in a patriarchal society. Freezing up when sensing a potentially dangerous situation with cis men is a remnant of that - 🧵

A lot of people get uncomfortable when they are told about their actions silencing minorities because no one wants to seem like the bad guy. The important part is recognizing your wrongdoing and trying to make things right.

i've been stealth for about a year now, and i've found that most men fold at the slightest bit of pushback from another man. especially if you were on good terms before then, and ESPECIALLY if you frame their behavior as weird or uncool. they're sheep. they aren't gonna do shit

Marginalised women, are allowed and encouraged to vent, complain and/or critique men laterally. If the criticism doesn't apply to you, well done for not being a dickhead. There's no need to say 'Not me tho' you'll have already proven this to her by your actions.

i hate the overused concept of "phallocentrism" because it takes the centering of men and their sexual desires (a given within patriarchy) and makes it about a body part, leading to useless and nonsensical conversations about straps or trans women

Friendship and romance really need to switch places in terms of how much Western cultures typically value them, because you can live a full life just fine while single but you CANNOT live a full life without friends.

Men are suffering because they struggle to see women as anything but sexual partners. Our culture is suffering an epidemic of loneliness because we’ve elevated romance to the highest form of love. We’ve forgotten the joys of deep, committed friendship.

men in marginalized groups favorite excuse to use when u tell them to defend women in their communities is “im scared :(” and then when women advocate for women in those groups specifically the same men are like “nobody cares about our oppression :(” perpetual helpless victims

contrary to popular belief, while this may work in rare cases, statistics show that men who commit violent crimes towards women usually *do* target the polite/quiet ones because in they are seen as less likely to resist. so in other words: be loud, it’s a weirdo’s worst nightmare.

Women really gotta get better at recognizing what a GIANT red flag it is when another woman is performing feminism and starts talking about the evils of the Y chromosome, testosterone, the penis, or other aspects of sexually bimodal biology. THAT IS NOT A GIRLS’ GIRL. RUN AWAY!!
