this is not a debate sub! We will get around to making the debate sub for anyone with questions about gender critical ideas or radical feminism. We are migrating over from Reddit after the bannings.

Female is Not a Feeling. We won't go down quietly.

Re-forming wherever we can: Spinster.xyz

Feminism is the movement to liberate women from patriarchy. We stand up for the rights of women to control our own bodies as individuals and to control women-only spaces as a class.

Women are adult human females. We do not believe that men can become women by 'feeling' like women. We do not condone the erasure of females and female-only spaces, the silencing of critical thinking, the denial of biological reality and of sex-based oppression. We oppose the 'cotton ceiling' and the pressure on lesbians to have sex with men. We resist efforts to limit women's reproductive autonomy. We condemn the men who exploit and abuse women in prostitution and pornography.

"Women do not decide at some point in adulthood that they would like other people to understand them to be women, because being a woman is not an ‘identity.’ Women’s experience does not resemble that of men who adopt the ‘gender identity’ of being female or being women in any respect. The idea of ‘gender identity’ disappears biology and all the experiences that those with female biology have of being reared in a caste system based on sex." - Sheila Jeffreys, Gender Hurts

I think pornography is a massive factor in AGPs and the extroverted of those clearly have a need to force everyone around them to affirm their charade. For kids who want to be cool, and that is presented as normal and forward thinking, vs old fashioned and outdated, or worse when the "cool parents" are affirming it vs the squares that aren't (where gender and trans are parallel to the parents who let kids drink in the house because they would do it other wise outside) I can easily see porn influencing kids even if they aren't view it.

Also, porn use by straight boys puts them into a mindset to ... well rape the girls in their peer group for lack of a want for a better word. This is part of the hypersexualized world where people do feel free to talk about their kink and porn use and just pushed the envelop way beyond anything that existed in the past. The adolescent girl is then given a choice to escape this pornified world where they are the object by transing. So, porn impacts that even if the kid isn't watching it.

You agree the anime influence but so much of that is low-key porn even when it isn't. They make it a point to imitate camera angles and panning that accentuate the "secondary sex characteristics" that are emerging as puberty begins. It's a genre that objectifies cartoon girls even when the anime is not really about that. How many sad sad dudes publically and vocally shat on the Netflex Cowboy Bebob because the actress wore too much clothing for their tastes? They complained about it because th genre is a porn-lite genre at it's best, and I don't need to talk about it's worst.

The thing about hearing from detransitioners or any one at any given time. Their reasons for doing things in the moment of doing them should never be assumed to be rational, and so what ever reasons they state for doing what ever they do should be taken with a grain of salt. But to take reasons for having done something, transitioning or even eating a cookie, given after the fact, hours or years, is pretty useless. We always rewrite our past to make sense of the present. It's basically human nature and part of our pattern-making adaptation as a species.

Another possible hidden influence of porn in kids being roped into the trans cult is the teachers and the adults who are doing the pushing. I have no observation to offer on this, but my general idea is that you can't just look at the direct influence on some kid and how that leads them to or away from the cult but you have to see it as a potential influence, in some cases great, on the people around the kid and their environment.
