Hi Everyone! I’m planning on adding stuff here but first enjoy your new weekly mega <3


Join our public Matrix server!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

    I thought this site was actually purged of this, but no… We still have a bunch of fuckers running around calling people AMAB’S and AFAB’s for zero reason and refusing to acknowledge that their langue is harmful. They use AMAB as a noun literally as just a “woke” replacement for “biological male” when using any other kind of langue would have sufficed. ACTUALLY would rather just be called slurs on this website than that shit.

      The worst part of the whole thing was that it doubled down on its rhetoric, insisting to many trans people that AGAB language is the best way to describe it despite being presented with better alternatives.

        You’re telling me that I’m not allowed to say “she AMAB on my AFAB till I AGAB”??? Wow the woke left really has gone insane. How else am I supposed to convey that information!!!

      It’s so cool when people reinvent binary gender essentialism but cloak it in progressive language. madeline-stare

      What gets me is that it wasn’t even accurate use of the terms, like AMAB used to refer to people with d*cks, which obviously excludes a lot of trans women anyway. I get there’s certain medical settings where terms like that can be useful, but why insist on using it in contexts where it’s neither accurate nor otherwise helpful in any way?

      If anyone other than a doctor presses me on what was between my legs when I was born I’m just going to call them a pedo. “Are you trying to get off on imagining me as naked child, you fucking pedo?”
