I’m flat out offended by Alex. What in the hell are they proposing? Women are - women. You don’t get to redefine and take away rights because you want to play gender games. Turn the tables, shall we? There are no men if trans men aren’t accepted in mens sports mens locker rooms mens prisons... don’t make me laugh. Never gonna happen. The ridiculous circular logic and citing of extremely rare cases (eg intersex) just reeks of excuses. You don’t want women to exist - you never did, Alex. You just want more to control. Well just kiss off dude. The backlash is swelling and you brought it on yourself.
“Turn the tables, shall we? There are no men if trans men aren’t accepted in mens sports mens locker rooms mens prisons”
This is where it gets really trippy. Bring this up to the activists and of course they believe that trans men should be housed in prisons with women because trans men are female and would be vulnerable in men’s prisons.
All of a sudden, sex matters again.
Basically the trans movement sees women and particularly women’s spaces as a convenient escape route for anybody who doesn’t want to deal with men. I’ve seen numerous pictures of bathrooms recently that were simply “men” and “everybody else.” *Actual* women are an afterthought to people like Alex.
That’s an interesting perspective, that of a ‘convenient escape route for those who don’t want to deal with men’. I hadn’t thought of it that way and appreciate the insight. I had viewed it as flat-out bullying and culture war stuff that was attempting to essentially erase the female - once again, for the benefit of the male. Huge step backward in my view.
Rather than bicker over bathroom stalls just create a trans one (or sports team, or prison, or whatever). Fundraise for it. Buy your own spaces, don’t take someone else’s hard-fought ones.
And I wish these people would stop twisting language in negative ways (‘chest feeder’) in absolute denial of the XY reality they will live with no matter what pronoun they insist on. It’s hurtful, unkind, and does nothing to build bridges or support.
You can rebel by sticking to the original definitions. Like, white supremacy for me is strictly people who consciously believe white people are superior to darker-skinned ones and think they should rule the world as a result. A woman is an adult human female and a transwoman is a different kind of woman - one who has appropriated womanhood for a variety of reasons.
BTW, there are other unhealthy reasons for switching trans that young people (mostly) have expressed - in addition to not wanting to deal with misogyny, some may be trying to avoid being attractive to men if they've dealt with sexual abuse. Other gay kids have expressed a desire not to live in a homophobic world.
I can't imagine anything less *authentic* - which young people like to go on about - and more anti-feminist, or pro-homophobic, than changing one's self rather than challenging the toxic beliefs that contribute to a misogyny and homophobic society (both of which are rooted in toxic masculinity).
