22.11.2025 20:22 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Terfs don't recognise trans women as women because all they value in a woman is a hole they can fuck and birth their kids from, they're not interested in women as human beings
A trans woman is a woman if they identify as such. I don't need to know what's between their legs because I'm not a creep
I find it difficult to believe that in 2025 we still have to argue that vaccines are safe, tariffs are a tax, slavery was bad, killing people in boats at sea without due process is illegal, calling reporters 'piggy' is wrong, and the swastika is a hate symbol.
But hey, here we are.
A trans woman because they sell hand-knit labubus on etsy
A lesbian because she has seen a woman for five years and still doesn't know if they're dating or not
2/2
It's not about sexuality or gender
You recognise a gay person because they walk faster than a straight
A bisexual because they can't sit straight on a chair
A non-binary because they play DnD
A trans man because they're weilding a sword
1/2
They'll never be HIM.

Atte; the worst, the most privileged, and the less empathetic people you're gonna meet in your entire life.

11.11.2025 21:53 — 👍 63 🔁 9 💬 1 📌 0this is reflected in media surrounding Brianna's school life. Teachers describe positive relationships with her - but she didn't have any real friends at the school.
and like... she was there literally for no other reason than being trans. that was it. that was their solution to her being bullied.
idk maybe we should put transphobic bullies in isolation and instead give trans youth a chance at having a life amongst their peers instead of punishing a trans person for being victimised and isolating them from the rest of the school like they're contagious.

I love women so much as a queer person.
They deserve so much more from men and society in general
Read about the challenges women experience at work. Read about salaries disparity.
Read about the experiences of non-white women. Read about the experiences of trans women. Read about survivors. Believe survivors!
What happens physically when you give birth? What does a c section entail? What happens to a woman's body after she has given birth? What happens during an abortion and why is it important to be pro-choice?
How does vaginal pleasure works (this also for those of us dating trans men and nb people)
I really wish men were better acquainted with the world of women in this society
Like, how many men actually know what menstruations are? What the symptoms are (it's not just cramps)? What is menstrual blood made of?
What parts is the uterus formed of and how does it work?
Omg I have to listen to it
