    People on this website will really upbear one of the most stock transmisogynist catchphrases out there just because the hypothetical group of trans women targeted by the phrase have been hit with as unserious a label as being “reddit”

    Like it’s perfectly understandable to not pick up on “the plight of the femboy” type rhetoric as a dogwhistle but this is literally just the most stock harrassment trans women get hit by on twitter but with a reddit label crudely stamped over it.

    • Not sure what you mean? I’m talking about people who explicitly say they are cis femboys and yet repeatedly are made the butt of a joke by a small sunset of trans women. I don’t see how respecting people’s sincerely and repeatedly stated gender identity is transphobic. Im in no way intending to imply that people identify as a woman are just femboys in denial if that’s what you thought I meant.

        It’s a completely unserious conflict, a huge amount of trans women have experience with self denial of identity so its understandable that they would be persistent in trying to help others avoid delaying transition, at worst the situations described consist of cis men getting joked about by trans women, this is just not a real problem and its pretty much exclusively forwarded as a problem in order to demonize trans women.

        And what I am accusing you of is peddling extremely thinly veiled transmisogyny, since the entirety of your account existence is posting twice in some “would you rather be trapped in a forest with a man or a bear” thread elsewhere, and then coming to hexbear to talk shit about a designated “cringe” group of trans women.

          Agreed. If it was a real problem, I’d have left the communities that did that a long time ago if I thought it was seriously problematic. It’s in poor taste imo. But like in the same way that the Aces invading Denmark is cringe and in bad taste (tbh, I find that meme hilarious, regardless of whether it’s cringe or otherwise in bad taste). Not in the same way that transphobia is bad.

          Guess it does appear that way to someone who hasn’t been around here much. Just migrated instances because the previous one has been having ongoing technical difficulties. Been a regular here for at least a few weeks (been following since the beginning, but only recently started commenting regularly) and was a regular member of those other places I’m poking fun at as well up until the blackouts at reddit. I’m glad they exist and most of the cringe is in good fun.

            You keep going on about it a lot for something that you apparently agree is at most mild disrespect of trans women towards cis men, and I would rather you address you word for word repeating a transmisogynistic harrassment slogan but with reddit added to it, rather than clarifying your account history.

            I’ve been around trans spaces online quite enough to know crypto bullshit when I see it.

        This is the third time that somebody has called out your gross transphobic bs and you keep deflecting like the world’s biggest debate pervert.

        You outright said that these people are “conflating womanhood with a couple of choices in clothing”. That part of your post, which is just rephrasing the terf argument that trans women are “treating womanhood as a costume” or “are doing woman blackface”, has been quoted verbatim by two different posters, you have replied to both. You have not engaged with this criticism once, you disingenious transphobic shitweasel.
