It makes me sad when women are convinced that something like this will make people wake up and turn on men. Women have been suffering from male abuse for centuries to the point of needing spaces free of them in the first place just so they could have a semblance of normal public life, and still people gaslight and insist that men aren't a problem, that misogyny isn't widespread and that bad men are "just a few bad apples". I imagine that trans rights are going to come down to how annoyed straight men are willing to get over being pressured to have sex with other men, and that in turn will come down to how successfully their precious porn manages to sell them the idea of these men as superior women, with better faking, more makeup, more surgeries to reach that twisted beauty standard, more submissive and dick-obsessed. Considering how phallocentric and anal-sex-obsessed most "straight" men are, I imagine the "men are superior women"-idea will win out in the end, and it would hardly be the first time in history that men have jacked each other off to this conclusion.

    I think some of this is going to peak when homosexual TiMs try to shame young, heterosexual men into sleeping with them. Contrary to the new mantra that we're all sexually fluid, there are men who are 100% heterosexual.

    Agreed. I feel like men literally and figuratively will not be swallowing any metaphorical bullshit about “the feminine penis”. Like okay dude you’re taking female hormones, you chemically castrated yourself to the point where your dick doesn’t work, but that does not mean you became a woman, it does not mean that heterosexual men (or homosexual women!!) are interested in you. It’s almost like sex isn’t based in gender feelings at all hmm...

    Some conservative message boards, often with a much higher % of males, are already starting to figure out that heterosexual men are the next targets for sexual predation by the Men Who Would Be Women.

    No surprise, I’ve even seen the general tone on reddit begin to shift. Lots of guys pissed they’re being told they have to like dick, you know very briefly before the Reddit trans police comes to prematurely end the conversation, but still.
