@Alexis @arthurwyatt Nooooooooooooooooooooo.
@davefischer This is gorgeous. Getting something like this straight from the camera is always an accomplishment worthy of celebration. 🏆
@danirabbit I’m so sorry! I had a surgery slip not so long ago and, emotionally, it felt like someone had died. Each one of these steps feels like an affirmation, and any interference cuts so deeply. 💔
trans, feminism, GCs, Britishness
The other big discussion thats been going on between me and my sister these last three months has been about how essentially a lot of the GC anti-trans groups outrage might stem from the unspoken point that transgender people are Skipping The Queue.
The ultimate british sin.
2nd wave feminism had a lot of eggs involved in it, many arguing points from a position of trying to wrestle with their internal issues, and to find any slight balm of comfort from their gender needs.
The promise of the Sex Wars was that ultimately feminism would win out, everyone would realise that all femininity was a false consciousness performance enforced by the patriarchy, and everyone would become in effect genderless and neutral, which also just so happened to be in the shape of a man. As long as everyone stuck to the plan, thats what everyone would get to be.
Then heres suddenly trans men getting to be men BEFORE them, they're skipping the queue. Here's trans women making a mockery of our pain, perverted agents of the patriarchy.

Enjoy our 🐷 language!

@thekimmy Sounds like you needed it. ☺️
@siege Awww. I love Oscar. It’s so dopey. I remember seeing it in the theater when I was a kid. 🥰
The fact that Isaac Asimov was a notorious assaulter and sexual harasser leaves me with this old question:
Can we divide the work from its author?
In this case, I can't.
I've read the comments from people saying that bringing attention to this is stupid 'woke' behavior and 'the new McCarthyism'. No, your childhood icon, the golden age of science fiction titan was a despicable human being. We have to remember that.

@h5e TU! Butchy Femme wasn’t at all something I had in mind when I came out, but it seems to be where I’m going!!
Also: jeans. Prior to starting HRT, I hadn’t owned a pair of jeans in 20+ years. Now they’re a near-constant!
