Not me, but if you’ve been following the drama, they removed this post about the unique issues we face as “divisive.”

It fucking sucks. There’s been a lot of discussion in other trans masc spaces about “transandrophobia” and this seems to absolutely demonstrate it. We aren’t treated seriously in spaces that should be welcoming for us.

People assume “trans” means trans woman. Spaces for trans people are often for trans women. Jamison Green wrote a while back about us not really having our own community, decades ago, and it still feels true today.

There is a PhD in here somewhere about how deeply rooted patriarchal influences are even within the queer community.

Trans men aren’t taken seriously because they were AFAB.

Trans women control trans spaces because they were AMAB.

> frames point in terms of AGAB language > point is essentialist bullshit that equates to "trans women are functionally men and trans men are functionally women"

Every time. Fuck off.
