notallradfems lol. Thanks for your thoughtful response. I think in today’s political and social climate people just want to generalize whole groups of people, “all FTMs are just victims of male violence” “all MTFs are fetishists” “all gay men are misogynistic when they say they are repulsed by the female body” and so on. Let me clarify - I don’t believe any of these things. For me it is really as simple that I don’t believe in gender identity, and even if I DID I wouldn’t believe that it should override your sex. That is why things are so bad. Falsified reports and overblown studies to make it seem like if we don’t regard gender identity over all and before all else, this demographic won’t “survive” for lack of a better word. IMO it’s gotten to the point where, we need solidarity across all groups who this is affecting. Parents, radfems, LGB, scientists, doctors... Lastly I just want to touch base on your straight privilege point, while I see where you’re coming from, I personally view all women through the intersectional “axis” so to speak. All female humans are oppressed on the basis of sex, black women suffer in their own unique way due to race, as homosexual women suffer in their own unique way due to their sexuality, and so on. So while straight privilege may be a “thing” it doesn’t exempt heterosexual women from all the very real problems we suffer from on the basis of our sex as well.

That is something wrong with formatting. Use \ before formatting signs to disable them. It will look like *this* if you write like \*this\*.
