Let's talk about AMAB & AFAB ie assigned male at birth & assigned female at birth. Where do these expressions come from? Why not just say male or female? What does the assigned part mean? What new nuance does the creation of these acronyms add? What new aspect does it address?
#Schadenfreude
How do you think women have felt all this time, being canceled, no platformed, fired, called bigot? Hopefully this is just the beginning of TRAs being shamed for their sheer selfishness and stupidity. No one cares about your identity. Grow the fuck up.
Are transwomen women? Of course not! But let's discuss this.
Why are we even in this mess? What happened that the definition had been stable as "adult human female" since the dawn of time across all cultures but suddenly something had shifted, prompting inevitable change?
The word "transphobia" doesn't mean the same thing to TRAs vs GCs. The original definition of "irrational fear & disgust" has been hijacked by TRAs the same way they hijacked the meaning of the word "woman". How many of us roll our eyes when accused of transphobia?
A pernicious ideology emerged inspired by the tenets of post modernism according to which words create reality rather than describe it. TRAs believe that declaring someone or themselves a woman is a performative act that actually makes it happen.
As for the meaning of the word "female", we are told: what if a woman doesn't produce eggs? What if a woman gets a hysterectomy? Is she still female? My eyes almost fall out of their sockets. That's how much eye rolling is involved in reacting to such stupidity.
Transwomen are not & will never be women no matter how invasive the extent of their attempts. Even if TRAs got me the death penalty by guillotine to punish me for misgendering or dead naming, my last words would still be: "Fuck you, you will never be a woman!"
#WizardMicDrop
It is now a societal requirement to accommodate the narcissistic aspirations of men whose mental health, grasp of reality, & perception of women are all questionable at best. How is this not deranged? The definition of woman must shift to accommodate them.
Sex is an irreversible developmental pathway that is perfectly binary & immutable, despite the complex genetic & biochemical factors that determine it. But this doesn't matter. You have declared yourself a woman. All you can do now is repeat it in endless loops. Why?
That is all you have. Like a mediocre magician at a suburban birthday party, you throw out your pathetic "abracadabras" to a bunch of kids who are over it. You must repeat your mantra in an aggressive & transgressive manner. You recite the prayer. It is your truth.
I watched this yesterday. No nonsense assessment of Lia Thomas as a transgressive narcissist who is helping the world peak. Bravo to MrMenno for his good work. I am waiting for the ceremony to strip Thomas of his titles and give them to the rightful winners.
We all do know that inserting TW in the definition of women makes no sense biologically, epistemologically, societally. Surgeries & hormones only change superficial aspects of one's self. But what about the TW who pass? I hear them ask. Who cares whether you pass or not?
It doesn't matter that women aren't comfortable having bepenised individuals in their spaces, refuges, sports, & prisons. Transwomen are women. It doesn't matter that you're not on board with it. Gender identity is valid because intersex, brain scans, mean terfs, & inclusion.
How paradoxical is it that all over western societies people endlessly debated whether or not Muslim women should be able to keep the hijab in the workplace if the employer is the government while now men can infiltrate certain women's prisons with a self declaration!
One thing I would love all pro trans activists to hear: your stupidity, your scientific illiteracy, and your sense of entitlement are sadly not protected characteristics. Wear whatever the fuck you want, just don't deny your sexed body and stay out of single sex spaces. Enough!
TRAs navigate their lives acting like vicious bullies while simultaneously playing a tiny violin of societal cissexism & transphobia. Mental health problems are now a consequence of this transphobia rather than the obvious cause of their wanting to transition in the first place.
The transwoman is basically the embodiment of a downward spiral of self-imposed perma- pseudo-oppression & mental anguish in a feedback loop with the formation of a fragile & bruised ego. Their oppression is "noble". Accept me in the name of gender jesus, O cis one!
Which brings us back to the definition "Adult human female". It doesn't cut it anymore because of the peenfeels (thanx, Karen Davis) of men with regressive views of women & womanhood. Is it a reasonable accommodation to squeeze TW into the definition of women? No.
Most TW don't pass at all. The voice, the receding hairline, the huge hands, the alopecia, the man face, the abrasive male behavior, the ridiculous clothes & makeup, THE PENIS!!! For those who are wondering, girldick is not a thing. You heard it here first.
A consequence of the TWAW doctrine is the "cisation" of women. The insertion of TW into womanhood creates two subtypes of women. Cis & trans. What overarching characteristics do they have in common? I'm still waiting for an answer to that one. They live like women? Who knows!
The word woman isn't clear, they say, because "adult" has different meanings in different places. Do you mean 18 or over? 21 or over? Or after menarche (onset of first period). Human is the least controversial of the three words.
The most I am willing to concede is that at best, a TW is the husk of a woman. A very passing & post op TW can be a convincing illusion of a woman. Female genitals are an actual thing though believe it or not. How misogynist is it to reduce female genitals to a hole?
Oh but vocabulary evolves to reflect new uses of certain words, we are told. Fuck that shit. This isn't like the word "web" acquiring a new meaning because of the internet. This is clearly a hijacking as part of the agenda of a belief system that is cult adjacent.
Does the cis/trans nuance add anything of value to the discussion of what a woman is? Of course not. Women become a sub category & TW gladly mansplain it to them all the time. If you're a cis woman, you're basic, your vagina is factory settings, the TW have the Gucci coochie.
This idiot does doctoral level research in God only knows what. He's also the one who sang that stupid a capella little song on genital preferences and transphobia. Here he is insufferably transplaining lesbianism with his crusty lips and his smug face. I can't...
How shallow are you that you need this invasive external modification to flourish into your authentic self? What is wrong with the younger generations that the essence of gender supercedes biology? It gives kids an illusion of self determination they don't really have...
Transwomen or trans women? How many of you were told that there needs to be a space between trans and woman? Because white woman, tall woman, black woman, trans woman. (I once saw them called "transwo men" to accommodate the request for the space). But seahorses aren't horses.
It certainly doesn't help that gender & queer studies majors often also study literature, & end up in education. TRAs have captured schools, universities & even the dictionaries while no-one was watching. How dystopian is this below definition from Cambridge?
And how about this one from Merriam-Webster? Reading this gives me hives. The dictionary is supposed to gatekeep. Why are we accepting these circular definitions? What the hell is going on? Femaleness existed before humans did...
These ill individuals wonder why they are being refused employment. They upload trash like this for employers to see, and they really believe corporations want to put up with this in the workplace.
Every time Lia Thomas trends, I wonder what he did or said to attract attention this time. But then I think of every single female athlete who was bumped down by a TIM, and I am enraged for all these women. I understand why Lia Thomas must never stop trending.
Will 'Lia' Thomas has done more for the GC movement than all the TERFs of the world combined.
Seeing that massive man, with a boxer's shoulders, massive hands, and his dingus still intact, proved to the average person how insane this trans cult is.
Thanks Will.
That is how you succeed at talking to them. In the tone of a 5th grade teacher. Talking down to them so they understand their arguments are being brushed off because insanity. No-one cares how you identify. You are a woman.
@liz_hallett
There is no such thing as trans youth. No-one is born in the wrong body. There is such a thing as kids brainwashed into the cult of trans, and there are also parents who prefer a trans kid to a gay kid. There's a difference.
I don't understand how you can accept the idea that the word woman doesn't have a definition. Adult human female is a definition that exists across time and space. Every civilisation has a word for a mature female human. Why and for whom are we throwing that out the window?
It seems en vogue these days to talk about "my truth". What point does the word "truth" even have when everyone has one? Irony aside, here is how I understand the word "transphobic". It says more about the person calling the other transphobic than the alleged transphobe.
What do GCs think of the success of voice training in TW to sound like women? I'll go first. It offers cartoonish results, & it is damaging to the voice long term not to live in its main native range. A TW once told me it sang soprano in a choir. I spit out my coffee laughing ...
Receiving an accusation of transphobia is strangely enough a badge of honor. It means a TRA was triggered, & that you have the courage to confront bullies by simply asserting reality. Ex: biological sex is binary & immutable, a woman is an adult human female.
I never would have imagined it would be considered hateful and "transphobic" to think men cannot become women and vice versa. It is throwing biology, epistemology, and logic straight into the trash.
This one is a particularly insidious TRA because he has a background in philosophy. Which means he will be an expert in fallacious reasoning. He's still a fool. Transphobia is not a deliberate ignorance. It is refusing to adhere to the church of the pastel colors of stupidity.
A TRA accusing others of transphobia is a) resorting to a thought ending cliché of the lowest order b) signaling that their narcissistic interests supercede any other potentially reasonable consideration, c) a result of either stupidity, or willful blindness, or both.
@night666stalker
I once had a friend ask me: "Don't you feel like a woman sometimes you know? Like when you return from the gym?" I asked him: "What the hell do you mean, after the gym? Are you tired? Do you feel vulnerable? Do you wanna wear a wig? Do you have pelvic cramps? WHAT DOES IT MEAN?"
Ultimately, we are far from people that have overt irrational hatred and disgust of trans people. This being said, seeing some monstrous transwomen exposing their mind cancer makes me feel profound contempt for them. And I start hating them for being so damn stupid and selfish.
We all know TRAs will unironically accuse us of being bigots, fascists, nazis, homophobes, transphobes, & misogynists at the drop of a hat. They don't realize that they dilute & denatured the meaning of all of those words the same way they did to the words woman, lesbian, gay.
It is difficult to prove to TRAs that we have no hatred in our hearts for gender non conforming people at large. And ultimately it isn't your gender non conformity that bothers us, it is simply your stupid interpretation of reality.
The irony is obviously lost on them that they are a) the hateful, and bigoted protofascists we know them to be b) projecting everything idiotically onto us and c) acting in a way that may justify a certain amount of the dislike & contempt people develop for them.
Happy Mothers' day to all the women who have had the privilege to bring children into this world, including my own mother. This is absolutely trans exclusionary in case anyone was wondering and that is absolutely fine. A transwoman cannot be a mother, n'est ce pas, Erin?
Stop using the same tired bad faith arguments that aren't smarter now than the first time they were uttered. No-one cares who you think you are in your head. No-one cares you altered your driver's license or birth certificate. No-one takes your pronouns requests seriously.
This is part of the fallacious "stop defining people by their genitals" argument. Biological sex is real & people tethered to reality know this. Stating someone's sex is neither an assignation, nor in any way violent. You can still be who you want & present as you wish.
Update: you must not, I repeat, must not name Riley Dennis, or call him an asswipe for injuring the women he played with in Australia, in the name of inclusion
#RileyDennisIsAConMan
Oh, no! The Australian government forbade anyone to utter the name of Riley Dennis, the male soccer player who has injured so many female athletes while playing on a women's team.
Yet Riley Dennis is trending. This must be a twitter glitch. Surely no one mentioned Riley Dennis.
Let's start with the assignation part. There is no such assignation in reality. Sex is observed & recorded. A doctor's expertise is not even needed for this. Women give birth all over the world without the help of doctors, & the average layman can easily tell which sex one is.
To reveal my thesis bluntly before the deep dive, AMAB & AFAB are useless. They only makes sense to TRAs. Are they used to allow one to say male or female without being so blunt as the words male/female are now "potential bearers of immense violence"? A euphemism of sort? Maybe.
All transwomen should be banned from participating in any serious sport alongside actual women. No-one gives a shit about your pseudo-savant tirades on the numerology of hormone levels, minimizing the fact that sports are divided by sex not gender.
Those so-called rights you aspire to that you don't already have are all boundary crossing transgressions of the worst kind. Fraudulently altering driver's licenses is bad enough, but some of you manage to alter birth certificates "after the fact". What a cynical assault...
Pretending you are simultaneously an überevolved human, an oppressed naturally occurring category, and someone worthy of disability status is quite laughable, especially when you behave amongst yourselves like members of a cult and act like (proto)fascists to others.
As long as the worst of you are seen yelling at & assaulting women who disagree with you, YOU WILL NEVER GET ANY SYMPATHY from most people. Get your act together, and please see the virtue in creating one day per year when all transgender activists & allies shut the fuck up.
When I saw Veronica Poison Ivy on Trevor Noah's show, I wanted to scream. If you don't peak watching that... When I saw that smug fuck talking about the dictionary definition of transphobia, I thought to myself: "we're doing dictionary definitions now?"
1) gender dysphoria is the only mental illness "treated" by surgery now that lobotomies are not performed anymore
2) you cannot change sex ever
3) gender affirming care does not reduce suicidality
4) 90% of kids are cured of their dysphoria just by going through normal puberty
Dr. Stephen Levine is an American psychiatrist, he is renowned for his five decades of work in human sexuality and gender dysphoria. This lengthy video is from his testimony in front of the PA Health Committee in March of 2020. His expertise is of great relevance and worth the
The way TRAs present their word salad about intersex usually leads them down the path to such cogent brilliant arguments such as this one paraphrased for comical relief:
The reality is that understanding these expressions gets one that much closer to peaking & seeing transgenderism as the faith-based system that it is, in all aspects akin to a cult. It exposes a ambiguity between sex & gender upon which transgender activists ironically thrive.
If Germaine Greer is a transphobe what have you left for the 95% of humanity that are even more "transphobic" than she is? What a meaningless term. Transphobia. Ugh.
@wesstreeting
@Mather_Keir
A 25 yr old Oxford graduate, did a year for you, back to Oxford Uni, a year & half in public affairs for the CBI - he has no real world experience whatsoever
He also attacked Germaine Greer, one of the most respected feminists on the planet as a “abhorrent & dangerous transphobe”
I am perversely curious to see all the batshit that will come out of the woodworks today, on trans day of visibility, a day that is very ironically also my birthday.
Amazing that when I miss a period, as a woman, I don’t get real period cramps or any related issues but men, who never have a period, have convinced themselves unusual poops make them female 🧐
The audacity of this man and his phony science
Wow. Such an edifying point of view. As long as there are people as aggressive in disrespecting others as this guy in burgundy, trans activism will always be reviled.
@queeraurora
Lol no he is not... he is a boundary crossing asshole and you are probably one too. You might wanna run along because i ve already had you suspended once. Don't play with fire.
As far as prisons go, no-one wants you to have the autonomy to choose to live out your sentence with people that have the genitals that you baselessly claim match your personality the most. How fucked up is that transgression? There is a reason your sutonomy needs reining in.
Taken from Erin's 2022 TikTok. Notice how despite fighting oppression, genocide, & denying trans is a mental illness, this TRA is celebrating the trangressive privileges acquired through disability status. Transgender activism is a wasteland of selfishness & entitlement.
In spite of it all, to all those of you who do make those distasteful "fourty one percent" jokes & memes, please stop making them, they make us all look bad. It's bad enough how badly mentally ill many online TRAs appear to be, jokes about suicidality don't help.
Holler if you learned something.
It is profoundly demoralizing to dissect their stupidity such as I do. May something good come out of it.
Also note that most people who are both trans & intersex are fucking lying. They want to self ID up their own hierarchy.
#INTERSEXFALLACY
When Lia Thomas first entered the women’s NCAA swimming scene in 2021, she got the kind of attention rarely given to swimming athletes outside of the Olympics. Thomas was good, but she wasn’t the next Simone Biles of her field. So what explained a frenzy?
Another dystopian expression from transgender activists = "cis male puberty, cis female puberty, trans male puberty, trans female puberty."
There is no such thing as cis or trans puberty. There is male and female puberty. Period.
Trans puberty is not a thing. It just isn't.
Katy thinks this anecdote is some kind of a-ha moment vindicating TW... let me set the record straight. Some men will perve on woman in woman face and some men will perve on woman without bothering to dress up. Ta daa. The only thing we prove is that no male should be there.
When the transgender activist tells society, his parents, & the doctor that delivered him that he won't be what they expect him to be, he basically demonstrates that he has the emotional maturity of a child having a breath holding spell or a temper tantrum.
#LGBWithoutTheT
I can guarantee you, you have walked past a bunch of intersex people without even knowing it.
Who are intersex people?
They have some of the secondary sex characteristics of each sex, male and female.
Who was ever assigned anything at all? The answer is intersex people. They are the sacrificial lamb, the Jesus on a cross, the Jeanne D'Arc of transgender activism. Why? Their genitalia were ambiguous at birth so Drs decided to assign them a sex & operated them accordingly.
Why would transgender activists transform observation of sex at birth into an assignation of sex at birth? Because they want to make the point that even though someone saw your junk when you were minutes old, their assumptions about you won't define you or your gender...
Trans people are already burdening the rest of us and all of society with their narcissism and stupidity so no, I will not be folding some trans person's laundry, you fucking loser. The ripple effect of trans ideology onto society is already catastrophical, thank you very much.
Why do so many of the transfluencers seem to be blatant pathological narcissists?
Why would I do chores for someone because they decided to cross dress? Do you want a foot massage while you’re at it?
