like a bad person is just a bad person but yβall are legitimately normal if someone isnβt a tone policing misogynist who holds women/lesbians to different emotional care standards.

i just have crazy reaction sensitivity dysphoria, (from what my psychologist friend assumes) a SPRINKLE of insecure BPD, and often overestimate what βmean lesbianβ (WHO IS MY FRIEND) usually entails, thats my own problem yβall are fine lol.
i always get a little afraid at first when a lesbian says theyβre mean to men, but then i actually have it happen to me and realize it means that they just check my shit when they get annoyed and make good-humored non-cruel jokes at my expense.
iβve found that when a lesbian iβm friends with implies sheβll be mean to me bc iβm a man, the meanness only ever reaches slightly above normal βstandoffish cxs guyβ rudeness, and i can tell thereβs no real heat behind it.
like she just doesnβt cater to me emotionally lol.
mind the censoring of βcisβ, reposted from twt.
its actually mind boggling how illogical and stupid republicans and anti-trans extremists are. blatantly anti-science and proud of it.
same can be said of income for example. trans women are the lowest earners of any group, while cxs men by gender category are the highest. do you see how that fucks up data?
its literally putting a handful of whales in a survey about the standard weight of salmon.
youβre gonna have for example a dataset with 99% men who have standard cxs male experiences of SA with 1% of trans women who are such strong outliers experientially, with multiple times higher rates of SA, that they destroy the veracity of the data.
when you have an extremely sociologically distinct group when taking stats based on reproductive organs, you fuck up the data completely. not a single statistician alive would go βyeah this group of women belongs with cxs men, makes for perfectly clean data.β
even placing trans peoples statistics directly within those of cxs people of our gender yields wildly inaccurate data, trans people deserve to be recognized socially as what we are, but *sociologically* as our own violently targeted groups Because We Are by every single metric.
trans people are a distinct group sociologically speaking and everyone knows it. even transphobes. everyone knows the difference between a trans woman and a man, there are extremely identifiable factors, different experiences, and markedly *DIFFERENT BEHAVIORS.*
BECAUSE THEYβRE WOMEN.
they know that trans people are violently oppressed, and theyβre biting at the chance to make that unknowable to anyone but us and those who know us.
this should be treated with the severity of not just a book ban, but a ***book burning in progress.***
Gender identity House Bill 229 will define a man and a woman based on reproductive organs. As the Texas Tribune reported, the law, which will apply those definitions across state statutes, will "bolster an already existing block from state agencies on changes to gender markers on state documents." In addition to defining a man and a woman, the law also pertains to how vital statistics are collection by the government. The law says "a governmental entity that collects vital statistics information that identifies the sex of an individual for the purpose of complying with antidiscrimination laws or for the purpose of gathering public health, crime, economic, or other data shall identify each individual as either male or female."
any statistician or sociologist worth their salt in Texas right now should be fucking fuming.
the first part was predictable, but the second part is one of the clearest examples of preventive epistemicide i can imagine, destroying even the POTENTIAL for knowledge.

You might think, βThis person posts the same creature every year!β But honestly, seeing the same life return year after year is something truly wonderfulππ«§βͺ
psyop or communist trying to skip to step 10 when we havenβt even reached step 1 yet? you decide.
i recommend highly π

US is burning down and iβm texan and have few ways to materially help people until i go to college and make money.
feat. my fiancΓ© thinking to himself βwhatever you say beautifulβ
this is definitely how computers work and iβm a genius.
FOOL. PROOF.
A WEEEEEEK CHAT A WEEK!!!!! ive never even moved out of the city i was raised in!!!
i have a week until i move to argentina and i still havenβt shipped my PC/monitors out yet (RIP savings but tech is AT LEAST 2x more expensive in argentina.)
this reminds me of the time my slightly older friend said, out loud, βshocking!: zoomer speaks fluent millennial, STUNS older friendsβ when i was talking about the butter toast cat infinite energy rage comic.
not by any hard line of course. my fiancΓ© (favorite person in nearly all cases who understands me better than most) is a cis man after all. heβs also my community, easily.
tbh at this point my community is just the people i agree with and/or surround myself with. i dont feel a particular affinity for trans men (over trans women i mean) so much as i feel an affinity for talking about our oppression. i do socially prefer people of a trans experience but ehhh.
π god forbid the gay movie about gay men centers (gay) men.
with the September deadline for paying the full amount for surgery fast approaching, i am once again asking for any help that people can spare.

8 days until i move to argentina. still only have one suitcase packed and its the smallest one.
