More background: this is what “transmedicalism” actually entails

Frequent tech talking head suggesting that Meta execs shouldn’t be tried by the US government for corrupting democracy, public information, allowing all sorts of hatred to fester, aiding other authoritarian heads of state, etc.

Screenshot from the music video for “Arcamarine” which is a remix by Arca for “Aquamarine” by Addison Rae. A young woman rides in the bed of a pickup truck, leaning her head back as her hair wisps through the wind. The caption in light blue above her head reads:

“Learn to sit back and observe.
Not everything needs a reaction.”

Counterpoint: Graham Platner, Brace Belden and religious men on the left are wholly free to express their patriarchal sympathies. They just aren’t obnoxious about it. Misogynists make great informants and many of these guys have sus connections.

I’m sorry but so long as these people go ballistic at the most simple suggestion that they start taking estrogen, I have zero sympathy for them. You can play pretend while the state wants my head and the moment I ask you to change your body accordingly, you turn into Rod Dreher. Go fuck yourself.

This is what we have to fight against: all brutality and no play. The goal is to make adopting femininity more trouble than it’s worth and these savages are far too successful. “Makeup is contraband” what the fuck are we doing here?

“Actually we’ve already abandoned trans kids, we just wanna tone it down.”

"We're spending our energy investing in the candidates that are all the way with us. So in Ohio, we're really spending a lot of energy and effort with Sherrod Brown's [Senate] campaign. We're not supporting Amy Acton or Marcy Kaptur at this time," Robinson added. "If these folks are elected, we'll figure out how to operate on the other side.”

Robinson said that Brown, who is running against Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio), has done a "great job® responding to Republicans' anti-trans attacks.

A 30-second ad from Brown's campaign has voters, not Brown, explicitly saying that anti-trans messaging in the state is a distraction from economic issues because Ohio already has laws in place banning gender-affirming care for minors and prohibiting trans athletes from joining female sports teams.

"I'm not wasting my time on Marcy Kaptur, Robinson said. "We're spending our energy and resources on the champions that we think can be the difference makers."

I disagree, several people on this site posted the exact same quote. My honest guess is they borrowed it from Threads copypasta or they’re just repeating a popular tweet. Neither of those are activism so much as they are clout-chasing using transphobic/-misogynist stereotypes.

💯 If trans women being unambiguously happy makes people tantrumously passive-aggressive, that means they still have yet to understand transmisogyny as a crippling evil which they’ve had to suffer for their entire lives. Franny is the first example I’ve ever seen this depicted in.

“The most powerful man in the world is the guiltiest rapist alive. Trans women are not your existential threat. And neither are their dicks.”

Here's the thing. Men know that penetrative sex is violative. Some have gone out of their way to not be a part of the problem but the response of the garden variety cishet man to the concept of pegging or sleeping with a trans woman is one of extreme emasculation. It's why the focus of the culture war is on trans women. Trans men can look like a fucking tank with a beard but there will be the assumption that trans men → no penis → safe. Not a woman, per sé, but not a threat, either. Easy to disregard. Invisible, if you like.

I'm not looking to change cis men's minds here and now. Do I want a future where dicks and vaginas can live side by side, holding hands, dancing through the fields? Sure! I'd love that! I don't think I'll fucking get it, though. I don't really have the ear of the planet, do I? No, the people I'd hope to reach are the lesbians who are aware of the association, who can not conceive of sex with a penis as an act of pleasure, let alone love, but only one of violation.

My request to you is not to sleep with me. Or with a trans woman, for that matter. I think it'd be best for everyone involved, in fact, if you didn't. Feels like that would be a bad fucking time. No, what I want from you is to understand that we are on the same fucking side. Because, believe it or not, the end point of feminism is not that everyone has a vagina, but it is equality, without a need for violence. It is an end to patriarchy, with all that entails.

For that to happen, we will need to lock arms. Because things are going to be ROUGH, going forward. The bathroom brigade has been very successful in many countries around the world, and every bit of legislation that hurts trans women will be used to hurt cis women. Prommy. She who plays with the devil's toys will be brought by degrees to wield his sword.

What do I want from my fellow crabs?

Three things:

1. Do a bit of introspection and try to uncouple sexual violence from penis. If that's not an option, consider the possibility of there being a difference between men's dicks and trans women's dicks. I promise, trans women are no more capable or liable to commit sexual violence than any other woman.

2. If your worry or frustration is tied to penetration, consider the fact that not all sex needs to be penetrative, even if there's a penis in the room. There's a lot of fun to be had without Penis Goes In Vagina math.

3. Fucking lie. If you consider yourself "woke" or a leftist or progressive, I don't need you to want to sleep with trans women but when someone asks you and your gut response is "ew penis", look that person straight in the eyes and tell them that you would.

Point 3. probably seems like it's mostly for the benefit of trans women. It is to the benefit of all women. Because trans women are not the threat. Sexual violence is. And the main perpetrators of sexual violence is men. By saying, publicly, that you're willing to sleep with trans women but not men, you are explicitly saying "I'm not scared of your dick, I'm scared of you, motherfucker." Even if the dick is the thing you're scared of.

So…yeah, like I said, the WNBPA really meant it in their earlier statement about “having difficult conversations.” I’m just so disappointed that it’s taken this fucking long since the Bud Light fiasco to get the corporate world to do anything substantial to speak out against the attacks and stigma.

The meeting on Wednesday did not yield any proposed changes to the WNBA’s eligibility rules. In a statement to ESPN, the league said the meeting had covered a range of topics, “including ongoing discussions on transgender athletes.”

“We will approach these important conversations thoughtfully and in alignment with the values of our league,” the statement read. “There are no immediate eligibility matters affecting the WNBA and we strongly denounce the bad-faith efforts to use these topics to demean or marginalize others.”

“A very small number of people — probably not actually even fans of the league — are trying to use this opportunity and this issue to divide fans and divide players,” she said.

Hultquist, who works for an international LGBTQ+ nonprofit in the Seattle area, said she’s been encouraged by statements from WNBA players like Gabby Williams of the Golden State Valkyries, who has said she would welcome a transgender player and has spoken out against policies restricting trans rights.

“When we don’t say anything, I think it leaves trans people hanging out to dry with no support,” Hultquist said. “Especially as cis people, I think we need to show that we have their back and that we don’t need to take the bait, so to speak, into bad-faith arguments.”

In 2020, the league and players association launched the WNBA Social Justice Council, a first-of-its-kind effort to address systemic racism, healthcare inequity, gender equality and LGBTQ+ rights.

It was in that same spirit that Chris Paulsen, a 27-year Fever season ticket holder and CEO of IYG, a local LGBTQ+ nonprofit, asked the team’s leadership for a meeting.

The two groups had formed a close partnership over the last decade, she said, and Fever players for years had visited IYG’s headquarters in Indianapolis to meet with queer and trans youth. At the Fever’s annual Pride night in June, the team honored Paulsen, who will retire at the end of the year, at center court.

Paulsen said she met with executive leadership at the Fever and its parent company, Pacers Sports & Entertainment, about Cunningham’s remarks and the ensuing fallout. She asked if they would be open to releasing a joint statement, but they declined, telling Paulsen the Fever is not a political organization.

“I’m just really disappointed in them for not supporting trans people. I thought our partnership was stronger than that,” Paulsen said of the meeting. “But we’re still here. We’ve offered to educate any of their staff about trans girls in sports and things like that. And right now, they’ve chosen not to take that offer, but I’m hoping maybe that will change.”

This is generally how I feel about that discourse as a 96/97 Winter baby There’s a huge difference between regurgitating old trauma from “oh shit, we aren’t actually the free society we were told about” and “I actually operated tanks and experienced real combat, the fuck are you talking about”

Seeing this comic inspired me to post that because it’s hilarious. I literally LOL’d. I’ve always appreciated the bimbo more than any other transfem stereotype because they’ve seen enough horrors to be effective, assertive authority and they never stop being cute. And women of any race can be one.

In a classroom setting, a girl with mostly bleached hair, with purple makeup and dress, black choker and arm tattoos holds out her right hand and says, “Sorry, but…I don’t speak SUBREDDIT INCEL, GIRL. But, thanks.”

In the background of this panel is fires from hell with a devil’s thorn headband over her head, with the word “SCARY” above it.

Top right panel is a dark-skinned girl laughing. Below that is a nerdy girl in glasses, a brown bob and gray shirt, clenching her face in anger and thinking “FUCKING BIMBOS!”

Middle left panel is the nerdy girl’s lap, showing her getting a boner from the bimbo girl, on whom she regretfully has a crush. The nerdy girl is thinking, “Oh shit, not now, why now?!”

To the right, the bimbo holds up a pink book while looking at the nerdy girl, who’s nervously shaking. The bimbo is thinking, “What’s that all about?”

Bottom panel is the school bell clock ringing with electric zaps and a long BRRRRRIIIIINNNNGGGG in red text next to it.

The last thing I need to read about is a theoretical work around in response to authoritarianism that does nothing to address the authoritarianism directly. Any version of that just reads to me as:

I strongly disagree because feminism has been wishy-washy at best regarding trans women. Gloria Steinem ranted against us for decades and didn’t apologize until 2013. What has changed is that Anglophone feminism has never had to *urgently reckon* with its transmisogyny until mayyyyybe now.
