I'm so pissed off this is happening to you. Everyone deserves to have their boundaries respected. The L is getting viciously attacked and its bull crap!!! I wish I knew what to say to make you feel better but I don't. I just want these dudes to leave women and kids alone!!!! F@$#!!!! Please do what you need to to stay safe. Thank you for explaining the withdrawal (PMS), I think that is actually scarier than a delusion.

Thank you! I am about to move out of the area and try to go totally off grid. I thought I accomplished that when I moved here. I did not forward addresses when I moved with the postal service, and when I did my name change, I was able to have that done privately, and then I shut down my old phone service when I did the name change, and started up the new phone service, new phone number, under new name.

They are getting attacked! And men are the ones physically attacking the trans identified males--I do not understand why TiMs are not actively campaigning against other males?

Working in BDSM and having talked to thousands of "sissies" and trans identified males, I can also affirm some of the things you spoke of...requests ranging from wanting to be trampled, foot fetishes, being cucked, humiliated, made to be disabled and de-limbed, castrated, being a human toilet, among other masochistic things....many of them also fetishcize tall women and have a "giantess" fetish. A lot of women don't realize the extent of the sissy humiliation fetish in porn and how extensive and popular it is. More and more men are developing submissive fetishes where the ultimate submission is eventually being humiliated via "feminization". There's a strong connection between fetishcizing submission and transgenderism.

If I were you, I would take those bits out of your profile and just ignore or block any transwomen that contact you. Try to fly under the radar and not bring attention. The fact that these men come looking for you is insane. Maybe alert your employers and let them know you've been stalked and to be wary of any weird people. Get cameras outside your home, if you can. Keep up your goals, you sound like you're on the right path.

Thank you for this additional context. This is the kind of story that before I peaked I would have probably written off as too crazy to be true. No one believes it’s this bad until they peak too and these explanations for WHY are what people need to know. We desperately need public discourse on autogynephilia because it is the main driver behind trans politics.

I agree! I was right along side of these people drinking the Koolaid about three years ago. I was right there with so many supoprting. I think a big thing is unless people have direct, personal, interaction,s they do not get to really see what is going on.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

OMG YES! I have saved screenshots! I have been told I should work in that industry because of my height and looks. I have bene asked to step on people, I have been called a "giantess" by Tims, and they come at me thinking I am dominant and agressive and are immediately going right into this subby role. It would be a turn off even if they were not a TiM. I am certain it would be a financially lucrative thing to do, no judgement there.

Thanks! Thankfully, I have been my own employer for the last year.

I just feel like, if at least one woman, if not more reads what I typed, it would be something and help open people's eyes.

Wolf in sheep's clothing! I read a blog once of a male dom (I am not into BDSM) who talked about the first year he went to some convention and none of the women there wanted anything to do with him because they found him creepy. He openly admitted that he came up with the idea of cross dressing and wearing a wig, in order for women to feel more comfortable around him. Apparently a dozen years later, this guy has grown his hair out, and is still doing the BDSM stuff, dressed up in PVC from the women's section.

So gross!

This is horrific! I’m SO sorry this is happening to you! I don’t even have words to describe how angry I am. Are you employed at the moment? Is there someplace you could move, to feel safe/safer? I know it’s cathartic to say how angry you are, but I’m scared these goons will trace your dating profile statements to you, and then try to get you fired from your job for “transphobia” etc. I’m reading so many stories about people who get hounded out of their jobs, graduate programs etc. for this reason (there’s a story about this on Quilette right now). So, please be careful! I don’t want you to be abused even more by these cretins. And STAY STRONG! I too cried when the subreddits got banned (I was just about to post and join in!), but they can’t put us down because here we are! I’d suggest joining all the GC sites you can (Ovarit, Spinster etc.), and also if you’d like, I’ll DM you some awesome radfem Instas! They’re all saving my sanity right now. I’m stealth on Insta because one of my dear friends started dating this god-awful TiM and she’s now connected to other TiMs including a famous one. I don’t want to get doxxed! But, I can’t keep quiet either. Don’t lose hope that you won’t find someone! I think most people are stealth because they don’t want their true ideas to be public due to the possible consequences. I’m straight, so I can’t really speak for lesbians, but the GC lesbians I see online all seem to be happily partnered (and they’re not older women who had all the opportunities to meet i.r.l. back in the day). I think building a network of like-minded women is the key for any woman navigating the pro-TRA world we live in, but it might be particularly vital for lesbians.

Thank you. I am working from home doing consulting for my own business. I am about to leave the area. I am half packed already and plan to go to a super small area off grid if I can.

Thank you for warning me! I am so tired of not speaking up about it, it makes me sick!

I am on insta with only a couple of followers. Please DM!

I am just so exhausted!

Do you feel like me?

I have a couple of degrees, and I am not always taken seriously in my field because I am a woman. Because of what I look like, I am assumed by many in the "community" that I am not a lesbian, because I have long hair. Right now I am wearing jeans and a t shirt as I type to you. Maybe I am programmed to dress the way I do, it is certainly not for the male gaze.

I do not know if you are married or single, but I also get harassed by men as it is, and have difficulty just going to the store without being followed to my car, in the middle of the day, and guys get aggressive with me when I say no thank you and then turn it into an angry negotiation or get downright verbally abusive to me.

I do not own a gun, but having this all happen makes me want one badly.

Indeed, I have known TiMs chase. One works in a very high spot in tech. Another a musician. A couple of them are business owners. They see me and they see an object to manipulate, control, and have as a purse on their side.

I am so so sorry about your friend! I wonder if she is with him first out of pity in some way and excuses any bad behaviors because "trans". That was me when I started talking to some of these people initially as friends--I was excusing the bad behavior and saying they were this or that way because of trans. But the thing is, they were all acting in very similar ways and saying terrible things in similar ways, and that is when my lightbulb came on and I realized, holy crap, this is a disorder within itself!

I have had a couple of women already reach out on the dating apps and say that I said everything they have always wanted to say.

Hell I even brought up Tavistock.

I wrote a novel on iT! LOL

Thanks for the comment!

Wow my heart shattered into a million pieces. What makes me just absolutely seething the threats and violence werent taken in a more serious manner. While TIMS cry foul constantly and have an entire football field ready to come coddle them and attack whomever "invalidated" them. I just feel like so few people see what is really going on and it especially concerns me in the youth being brought up in this woke "norm". Youve definitely opened my eyes to another side of TIMs I had never considered the type they were going after for their hit of validation. How much further will this pendulum swing before people realize that no trans women are not women... never.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Right! I just watched the MB video with Posie and she was talking about the police harassing her for her comments on social media!

I have said what you have said as well--how far does the rubber band have to go before people wake up?

Straight girl here. There are no words for what I've just read, I'm just really really sorry that's happened to you. (The trans movement hasn't infected a lot of non-english speaking countries in case you're curious- just avoid spain)

Fuck I'm sorry you don't deserve this.

I was telling a Japanese friend about this and he had never heard of it. He said "I think this is only in the West"! I was so embarrassed for the West!

[–][deleted] 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

The West is generally an embarrassment. ;)

[–]our_team_is_winning 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I disagree as long as we have free speech. Many are trying to take that away though. But on the TIM issue, the West is insane.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

No Bueno! Thanks!

Message received! I only speak a little Spanish. I am in the US in a liberal, large city. AKA--toilet. I moved here thinking it would be great for new adventures, and meeting interesting people and gaining fantastic new experiences. I was right about the new experiences! Just not the ones I wanted!

<They said I was like a man with my height, and I validate trans.> Wait a minute, they're saying tall is a common characteristic of men, and they are having trouble finding a woman they can be shorter than -- they don't see how messed up this line of thought is do they? I would not want to see your career compromised esp. after you've worked so hard for degrees, put part of me wants you to write a tell-all and expose the rich and famous TiM who bully women! Name names and expose them for the anti-woman horrible men they are. If you have a dating profile that says lesbian, what part of WOMEN ONLY is not obvious????

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Thanks! Yes! They are all saying they want to be in this submissive smaller role to validate themselves to their therapists, the therapists that see them are recommending the same book to them (I have talked to a few therapists about this as well). They are telling them to read some book Women Who Run With the Wolves! I cannot believe it! I am certain the author of that book did NOT intend to write it so that men could feel "like women" while wearing dresses. I am not even fecking around! Women Who Run With the Wolves is now standard reading being told to TiMs by their therapists.

I do need to write an expose all something! I need to write it somewhere and share everything I have learned as well about these people!

[–]LoganBlade 18 insightful - 2 fun18 insightful - 1 fun19 insightful - 2 fun -  (7 children)

Question.

How do lesbians actually date and meet each other nowadays? From what I've heard the lesbian sections on dating apps are overrun with Tims.

[–]yousaythosethings 13 insightful - 1 fun13 insightful - 0 fun14 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

With difficulty and trepidation. You basically have to be semi-closeted and learn about and look for red flags. Transbians (unlike some homosexual transsexual males) almost never pass in photos much less in real life, but women are also socialized to ignore red flags and be kind and non-judgmental. There was a story on TL or GC on Reddit where a lesbian matched with a transbian who went to great lengths to lie about being trans. She saw red flags and ignored them to be sympathetic but was finally faced with incontrovertible evidence during that first encounter which took place in her home. But because of the physical and political power imbalance, she also did not feel like she could say anything to call out this behavior and still had to play nice to get him out of her home. It’s frightening, honestly.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

It is true. I ignored red flags. I was making excuses for their behavior initially. All the red flags were staring at me right in the face, from day one.

And you are right. Women are socially trained to have more compassion, and be more accepting, and to write off bad behaviors.

I think that was something I read on there! She felt attacked and people were advising her to call the police, that it was assault! Was that the one?

[–]yousaythosethings 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yes that sounds right. There’s two stories I have in mind and the OP of the first story also commented on the second OP’s story. I’m trying not to get them conflated but one story involved scary stalking and volatile behavior by the trans-identified male.

[–]oofreesouloo 10 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 0 fun11 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

It's so hard. It has always been hard, but now? Besides couples, random straight dudes, 'curious girls', bisexual women who only want to hook up with women (not all bi women, I'm saying there is this subtype of bi women), now we have the straight girls who ONLY want friendships (they do put this on their profile), the 'ace demi girl pan queer' women and TIMs. Luckily, in my country things aren't these bad yet, but it sure is making our dating even harder 😣

[–]VioletRemi 10 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 0 fun11 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Last time few years ago I checked, there were a lot of "straight/bisexual man/woman couple searching lesbian for trio" as well.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

It's true. I do not know! What do we do during the pandemic? Dating apps seem to be filled with nothing but couples and TiMs. Sigh.

[–]mangosplums 17 insightful - 2 fun17 insightful - 1 fun18 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

Wait, so I just need clarifying about this because it’s confusing. So you were a trans advocate being interviewed on local talk shows and giving speeches about the trans movement. And this made you semi famous in the trans movement world and you started getting messages from hundreds of trans women, some of which started stalking you and being violent when you rejected them? Did I get that right?

Did you try to report the person who broke your rib or the one who attacked your face at all?

[–][deleted] 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Sorry there was so much to type there. I was so emotional when I typed it as well! I was involved in Women's marches. I was there marching along side TiMs talking about their rights as well, and I gave speeches around the time BK was appointed into office and Christine Ford was sharing her story. I was interviewed after that but I was including TiMs in the fold.

I have been contacted in several areas by TiMs, in that area, on social media, and on dating apps, and the stalking came from all areas.

Yes, they became violent and stalkery when I rejected them

Yes I called the police. Multiple times. In the city I live in , liquor licenses are held in high regard and a lot of the crime is hidden here for other reasons as well (major research happening where I live), so no one wants crimes reported, so they went to file ony status. I did call the police. They came in person. Took the report, file only, and left.

It also happened when one hit my car with his van. Blue paint on my car. In my driveway,. I had license plate number, everything. Officer (a woman) said she was too busy to deal with that, filed only, and left.

They chase me because I am tall. I have literally been called the words "the holy grail for trans"

This was terrifying to read and not something I would have ever thought about. Jeez! TIMs harassing tall lesbians and fetishizing their bodies? Wtf?

[–]Tikiri 11 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 0 fun12 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

I read a post about this very phenomenon on one of the banned subs some time ago. Don’t remember which sub exactly but definitely a GC-leaning one. I was truly shocked. I wonder to this day if there are other tall lesbians (or tall women in general) that this has happened to and what their stories might be.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yep. I have talked to a couple of other taller women in other areas that are getting stalked by (can we just say "standard" males for clarification?) standard males and TiMs.

[–]NeedMoreCoffee 13 insightful - 1 fun13 insightful - 0 fun14 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

I am so sorry you are going through this.

Personally irl i had a TiM start throwing chairs in a bar after i told him i was not interested and my boyfriend was right over there. He gave me the same man bullshit like he does not deserve you and and ill treat you better after he talked to me for 2 minutes. Women don't do that shit.

If you need more support there is also Spinster and Ovarit.
We got you <3

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Holy chite! They are losing their minds! They have personality disorders. Other people do too, but that is the foundation. Then they have anxiety. Then they have pressure internally to be this thing they are not, for whatever reason. And they have whatever trans stuff going on that they think is legit. Some of them do have trauma. But then, to inject yourself with an unstable cross sex hormone, which you get withdrawals from, when you are probably on other drugs (I am talking about the TiM), what could go wrong there?

It's a recipe for instability every time.

That must have been so scary! I can relate and so sorry that happened! Who throws chairs?!!!!

[–]NeedMoreCoffee 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

It was scary but a lot of guys were catching the chairs and the police was called.

I still don't like going back to that bar though i always feel nervous there now lol

[–]puffball 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Isn't it fascinating how these trans women, who allegedly are women, so consistently completely fail to act and behave like a woman would, but rather behave almost exactly like the worst of incels and "nice guys"?

[–]NeedMoreCoffee 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Probably a lot of them are and think they can finally get women if they become one.

Thanks for sharing your story, that's horrible. Please stay safe, I know we all want to speak out, but atm only JK Rowling can do so safely because she's got f*ck you money and probably lives in a bunker lmao.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 0 fun5 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yeah I do not have the FU money but I feel as though there are so many bi or pan women who want to explore them and think they are some magical ride. NO, as in Pan's Labrynth nightmare ride, that's what!

I got so angry after I saw the story of another TiM, this time following a boy into the boy's bathroom and assaulting the boy, that I just went on a rant on my dating app profiles!

[–]joeytundra 9 insightful - 2 fun9 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

"and if I would NOT wear makeup, so they could pass better."

That is the real plot in 3rd wave feminism when they tell women not to shave. It's so they can make trans look more appealing.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Ugh!!!!! It is so true! Someone get me out of here! Can I nope out of living on this planet? Can we all chip in and buy an island somewhere close to medical facilities and food? Semi serious question.

[–]puffball 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

As if that would make them look more like an actual woman? It's as if they genuinely believe that nobody can see their male bodies with their male skeletal structure and male kinetics, only their surgically modified male heads and jaws.

Like, sure, with makeup and filters and stuff, you might be able to fool someone in a still picture. Maybe. But once we can see you move, it's not even necessary to be close enough to make out facial details to peg you as a man in drag.

[–]ReapWhirlwinds 7 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 0 fun8 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

holy SHIT. The absolute bastards. I understand if you don't want to invite trouble on your head but you should seriously consider compiling all the evidence of this and putting it into a book. But you could get into so much shit for speaking out about it! This is so horrible.

[–][deleted] 7 insightful - 1 fun7 insightful - 0 fun8 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

As far as writing a book goes, it might be safer to write it as fiction, or even science fiction, and erase some serial numbers (as they say) for safety, just to get a portrait of this pattern of behaviour out there.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

That sounds like a plan. With all the peak trans threads, I do not see why this could not be a collaborative effort. There is enough there to take snippets, have some Psychologist, even one or two comment clinically--that is a seriously great idea.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I have debated this! I have documented things.

[–][deleted] 6 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 0 fun7 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

Thank you everyone. I wrote that really quickly, and very upset after reading in the news yet another TiM followed a child into a bathroom and committed assault.

I have no one to talk to, or to relate to, in real life, about any of this.

Tavistock, what is happening in the UK, JK Rowling, I have no one to interact with in person over a cup of whatever. It would be so nice to hang out with a like minded person in human form! Ugh!

I cry for those of us who are isolated during the pandemic, and also, have no one to talk to about this!

Is there a country I can relocate to where things like this are not happening? Where people act civilized, even part of the time?

I have education that can get me permanent VISA pretty much anywhere.

I moved to a large, liberal city that is known to have culture, etc, and I realized before anything else, I missed nature. I missed the small area I am from. I missed camping. I missed peace and quiet. I am just not used to this stalker stuff.

I am certain. that what I typed here, is not all different from how other women are stalked--it just happened to me in larger volume because of the groups I started associating with, the place I live, and the internet. I have been approached and harassed by "standard males" while out grocery shopping as well, who become agressive to me when I say "no thanks".

And then, all of that happened, and people are just being nuts!

Right now I am looking at land to buy in a secluded area away from people.

I was talking to a friend from back home, and we both agreed we are not introverts! We love people, when they aren't being crappy. Sadly, too many are crappy.

Are men in general just reaching an all time high of being really chitty?

I honestly don't think so, but shitty men are reaching all time high levels of being really shitty.

In part, I believe we now mostly see and hear from the shitty men, because "we" have inadvertently silenced many of the non-shitty men. They've been reflexively smacked on the nose so many times for "speaking out of turn", especially by libfems, even when perhaps they had a valid point, that now they've largely stopped speaking out at all unless it's very obviously about something directly affecting them. (Then again, most women have also been silenced, e.g., when trying to speak up about the whole trans mess, and most are just hunkering down.)

Since cis men aren't getting much of the grief from TRAs, unlike women in general, and us lesbians especially, I guess they figure that since they often have been told to sit down and listen when women talk about their problems, and often rightfully so, they're now figuring that they'll stay out and do just that.

I think some European countries are fine. I noticed that if language is extremely sexually dimorphic, where it's hard to even make one sentence without revealing your sex (like majority languages in Europe), all this enby and queer stuff is not taken so easily by general population. I think France is one of the coolest countries as one of the most important places for feminist movement.

But some French lady should probably jump in, since me being from Poland it might be just a case of grass being greener.

Thank you for sharing this. I was horrified reading this, but now I am more aware of the cruelty that some people exhibit. I hope you are feeling better (first of all) and I hope you are able to stay safe. My heart goes out to you.

Thank you! The weather changing gives me some rocking scary migraines. As far as being stalked for being a tall lesbo, it is bad enough that "standard males" will not leave me alone. I do have to say this, which I cannot believe~! TiMs have come at me in far worse ways, and have said worse things to me, than the majority of the standard males. At least the standard males are usually predictable in behaviors.

I hate how inevitable stalkers are when enough men lust after one woman. Usually you have to be a famous celebrity to merit suffering this many loonies, but when a group that already has a huge tendency towards narcissism and other mental illnesses becomes aware of you... I never considered height being inconvenient beyond limiting dating pools, this fetishizing of your "big-spoon-ability" is crazy! Hoping that you can escape and fulfill such basic desires as a safe life and nice girlfriend.

This is so awful, I'm sorry you had to go through that shit. Out of curiosity, did you save screenshots etc. of those TIMS who harrassed you?
