Wow, total self-aware wolves material, or maybe "self-aware self-aware wolves" since the original subreddit sips the gender koolaid. What an interesting microcosm this post is. I scrolled down pretty far looking at the comments and then quickly checking profiles to see whether the poster was male or female (and this is generally easily discernible). Some findings because I like to analyze:

  • I had to scroll way far down to find a transbian responding to OP with a show of support against objectifying posts in the community and even he said that this reeks of male behavior which he thought he was supposed to be turning away from in identifying as a transbian. The transbian majority was otherwise totally silent other than (1) two transbians that I saw responding to anti-objectification comments by actual women asking for guidelines on objectification vs. polite appreciation (it's good for them to ask but it's telling that they don't already know because it means they haven't meaningfully experienced it themselves), and (2) a few other transbians responding to random off-topic side shit. So great that they wanted to ignore the important topic at hand but still felt the need to make their presence known. Paging Julie Rei Goldstein and Laverne Cox: No. Trans people, you included, do not receive the socialization of your target sex. Do you need further proof?

  • The many people explaining what objectification is were always women. I didn't see any exceptions. Transbians seemed devoid of insight and interest there.

  • I saw only one woman ask for guidelines on what is considered objectification, but she is autistic, so that's not surprising.

  • All of the explanations from women that the posters just must be really young are killing me. Open their profiles people and tell me if you can discern immediately what each of them has in common (hint: a penis).

To borrow from the trans cult, there are a bunch of TERF eggs primed to hatch.

Yeah, I noticed the same thing. "Transbians" are usually the dominant voices on that sub, but on that thread, it seemed like it was dominated by actual women. Really interesting, I read through the thread, it's like they are so close to figuring it out, just keep thinking ladies, there is a reason that sub sounds and acts a lot like a straight male sub.
