Does GC feminism include trans men?

Yes. Because they are females.

“1. Misgendering. GC probably see this as no big deal, but transmen do.”

And? You can support female rights without calling females men. Feminism has nothing to do with calling transmen men or he.

  1. To be blunt- you can support all females and their rights without giving a single fuck about why transmen “transition”. You can support the rights of females and have a negative or even inaccurate opinion of the trans community. Feminism has nothing to do with being trans and everything to do with being female. And I’m sure some transmen think they are gay men, so no we don’t think they’re all “lesbians in denial”.

  2. Do we? Or do we insist that they will always be female? What does this have to do with pregnancy and menstruation? The fact that despite some of them maybe look like men they still may experience both pregnancy and menstruation? Yeah... that’s one of the reasons why we include them in our feminism.

  3. Lmao we can talk all the shit we want and still support their rights as females. Feminism doesn’t mean everyone is valid, we like everyone, we support every choice- it means we support females and their rights. Transmen can fetishize gay men and still deserve to have rights? They can even be “creepy” and still deserve to have rights?

I’m not really diving into this post because it doesn’t make much sense, my point is- GC feminists can feel all of these ways (don’t agree that we all do and some of this post doesn’t really explain what you mean well) and still support female (including transmen) rights. We don’t have to agree with anything trans related, we don’t have to advocate for transmen specifically or call them men/he, we have to support their rights as females, and we do. It’s that simple. This post makes no sense because if GC feminism includes transmen- it is fully because they are female, that’s why. So we don’t have to pretend they are men or care about why they “transition”. If we did think they were men we wouldn’t include them. It’s why we don’t include transwomen.
