      I use cissie a lot, i’m also fond of gender incompetent or gender naive person, but nothing we can come up with will work as an actual slur, as we can’t mark cissies as targets of systemic violence with anything.

        This is the real answer of course.

        I can always count on you to have the most principled takes about these things and I really appreciate that.

            Got into an argument about the bathroom bullshit with my mom today who said verbatim “what if someone pretends to be Trans to get into women’s rooms” to which I had to explain to her that literally nobody would ever do that and that men creep on women and children all the time without doing that. Then she told me she would have to listen to trans people on that issue and we’ll now my mom knows I am Trans and is really really confused. My favorite one was “well you still dress like you and dont have breasts” and like really mom you have not noticed that I started shaving my face religiously, wearing fitted clothing and women’s jackets and changed my entire wardrobe over the last few years.

            Worst coming out ever. Another funny one was when she said but you still like girls and I just gave her the raised one eyebrow stare like lol you can figure it out.

            I also told her people reacting like her are exactly why I haven’t socially or physically transitioned and that I was indeed born this way.

            I hope you realize that the answer to extremism is not extremism on the other side of the scale.

            BLM for example was a move against racism, not against white people.

            I’m sorry this is happening to you.

                I am neither Liberal nor a Nazi bootlicker. I don’t understand what’s so bad about me arguing that we shouldn’t hate people based on gender in general.

                  You are tone policing members of a marginalized group and talking down to us because you are so fucking fragile that the mere assumption i could hate you for being cis upsets you. Fuck off you idiot, you wouldn’t survive my life for a single day you loser.

                  You seem very concerned about people who are oppressed having a negative opinion of their oppressors. take a break and reconsider.

                  We don’t need to hate the cissies, just to forcefem them.

                  And if they’re already female, we’ll just ftF transition them.

                  That’s right, female to MORE FEMALE.

          I hope you comment every time a cis person contributes to the systematic violence trans people actually, currently face. Sports, bathrooms, dating, forced outing, restrictions on our healthcare, gatekeeping, etc. All of those conversations, every time, I hope you are in there defending us. Otherwise I would get the feeling you don’t actually care about systemic violence on this axis at all.

            I stay away from people or platforms that have this behaviour in the first place. Those are the enemies. But of course I’m going to put my foot down when I see the people whom I consider good, calling for things that are bad.
