Freedom of choice

4 frame comic. an off frame street journalist asks a bearded man wearing a green cap and khaki clothes:

sir! do you think people
who don't have the guts to
watch a public execution
should do something else
instead of complaining, while
real men enjoy the show?

the man replies:
I don't know. do
you think people who don't
want to watch drag storytime
should just do something else
instead of demonstrating?
do you think people who
don't want to transition
should get a hobby instead
of restricting trans care
for people who need it?
how come you people
only care about freedom of
choice when it's about
being cruel to people?

Everyone’s mad at Danny Trejo for signing on to Ben Shapiro’s pro-ICE movie but now his son reveals how Shapiro’s team tricked an old man into doing this 😡

For anyone seeing this shit with my dad...

He was booked on a film, it's not pro-ice, it's not overtly pro anything. His agent described it as "a complicated story about a complicated time, where everyone looks bad except you, the hardworking Mexican shop owner who just wants peace.”

He jumped at the idea of playing a good guy.

About 2 weeks into shooting everyone, including us, found out Ben Shapiro was involved.

My 82 year old dad has never heard of Ben Shapiro, I had to explain to him who that is, and what kind of guy he is.

My dad contractually can't bad mouth him, the film, or walk away without being sued for breach of contract. He couldn't even release the statement he wanted to.

It's fucked up. He's handcuffed to this stupid project, and swaths of people have instantly turned their back on him without knowing any of the facts.

Ben Shapiro got Mexicans to abandon one of their heroes, got his own name to the top of google's searches, and made us look like angry fools lacking any nuance. He wins.

Izzy turns up at Jack’s door, dishevelled, dripping wet from the rain, a total mess. He wants a place to crash and someone who won’t ask questions. Deep down, he wants comfort and a warm body spooning him in the night. Someone who can give that for a night without it needing to mean anything.

Pen and watercolor

Cowboys again. This time one of our boys has lost his boots. Standing in a field of long grass the cowboy points towards the ground and shouts back to his colleague, “Lil bone people got muh boots.” This makes no sense to the other cowboy who sits atop his horse away from the action. He responds, “Lil wut?” Sure enough in the foreground we see a squad of little bone people scampering through the grass with the stolen cowboy boots. They’re thrilled. How the bone people got the boots off the cowboy is unclear.

Artist’s note: I tend to draw drawings from the same perspective (straight on) most of the time. This idea came about when I was goofin around trying to draw a character from a lower angle. I like that the story unfolds with the foreground, mid-ground, and background all working together. There’s a draft of this one included in the Spooky Pants book. Coming out next week!

If you are unwilling to grapple with gendered oppression at a more nuanced level than "men are universally bad to women", you are not willing to consider the multifaceted experiences of those who have complex experiences with gender or gendered oppression. That will fail This includes trans people.

If you are fighting men instead of fighting patriarchy, you are harming marginalized men. Oppression, including gendered oppression, is complex and nuanced. It applies differently to every person. It is both unjust and unwise to assume someone's goodness based on their gender alone.

"Patriarchy" is not equivalent to "men". Marginalized men of all types are evicted from traditional manhood and its societal power. Black men, disabled men, gay men, trans men, poor men, on and on, are all insulted as "less of a man". This is also gendered oppression.

Transmascs are ostracized from cis communities on the basis of being trans. When you fought everything internally and externally to realize a version of manhood and masculinity that was radical and authentic, only to be met with pervasive gender essentialism in trans spaces, it is devastating.

I wrote this in 2021 on this subject. I have spoken to hundreds of transmascs who echo this experience. In trans spaces where "testosterone is poison", "men are all toxic", and "I'm only here for the girls and theys", transmascs leave. We make our own spaces. medium.com/gender-from-...

If we lack consistency on what we are fighting for -- which is a world where gender is freely self determined and irrelevant to how you are treated -- those who self determined themselves to be men must not be excluded based on their gender. This particularly harms transmascs.

This argument of gender essentialism is familiar to me. I have been told, in more or less explicit ways, that I am "less trans", "less important", "less just", and "less radical", hundreds of times. On the basis that I am masculine. On the basis that I need testosterone. That's anti-trans, too.

Being a man is not a sin. Using your undeserved power granted to you by proximity to traditional masculinity against the vulnerable absolutely is. But these are not the same. And we must be extremely clear about this distinction. Especially if we want cis men to engage meaningfully.

"Trans men are men" does not mean "trans men are cis men". It does not mean "trans men are toxic men". It does not mean "trans men are misogynistic men". We must, as a matter of both principle and practicality, stop gender essentialism along with bioessentialism.

Arguing that transmascs, including trans men, are "choosing" to be men undercuts trans concepts of self determination and authenticity to the core. Arguing that manhood is an inherently and universally worse gendered category recreates a gendered binary. We must imagine and embody better manhoods.

If we are to radically break down assigned gender roles, if we are to encourage true gender equity, if we are to meaningfully remake human society to be kinder to girls, women and other gender marginalized people, we must do so for everyone. That, necessarily, includes men. Cis and trans.

Transmascs, also, in the vast majority, learn from our experiences being perceived as and marginalized as girls and women. We are, by and large, feminists. It is no less our truth to transition into masculinity than it is their truth for transfemmes to transition into femininity.

By transitioning, transmascs are expanding the definition of masculinity and manhood. We are excruciatingly aware we will not be accepted by traditional ideas of manhood. So we forge our own. Radically remaking the concept of manhood is critical for all men to learn and choose to do better.

There's a misconception that transmasculine people, especially those who identify with the term "man", are "choosing manhood". I find this to be one of the greatest narrative failures of trans movement work. If trans people are who we say we are, some of us will be men. They aren't less trans.

second, punitive castration is sexual violence. you don't reduce sexual violence by condoning sexual violence by the state. "I want rapists to be raped in prison" is not an anti rape stance. it's a pro rape stance.
