Welcome to r/truscum! We're not like those other TQ+, we're reasonable! We believe a man can be a lesbian if he has an uwu catgirl princess female brain that causes intense orgasms gender euphoria when you refer to him as she, but that a woman who wants they/them pronouns to be special cannot!

I'm starting to believe that truscum are worse than the trenders.

Yes they're as bad as each other.

Does polyamory fall under the Q now? That doesn't make sense to me. It's not a uniquely gay thing.

The LGBTQ seems to put all fetishes and alternative lifestyles under queer, with the traditional meaning of strange I'm guessing?

They've added intersex there too, which has even less sense. And non-binary there too, people who are "I am straight, but I have few tatoo's and dyed my hair to green".

They have added black and brown colors to rainbow too, so people of color are part of LGBTQ+ in their minds too. Few more years and they will add just straight people there too. So LGBTQ+ will be synonymous to "humanity".

Every kink is Queer™ now! Even swingers are now queer.

This is actually nothing new. I've had a few friends' husbands 'come out' as polyamorous over the last few years. But since cheating is now a part of the Q-wtf ever, my friends being uncomfortable with the situation made them 'bigoted'.

And they are explaining to their wives: "I am not cheating, I am joining LGBTQ+"?

[–]BigMommyMilkersYes, they're real 19 insightful - 12 fun19 insightful - 11 fun20 insightful - 12 fun -  (0 children)

Lmao that's hilarious. "Babe, I'm not cheating, I'm being a supportive ally to our LGBTQ+ community, what better way to show support than to normalize this type of behaviour? I didn't realize you were a bigot"

Exactly.

OMG they can't really make up their f*cking mind about anything at all, can they? 😂😂😂😂

When words mean nothing - you can't communicate well, you can't have common ground with anyone, because even among your own you will be talking about different things with the very same words.

This is from r/truscum though, they've always been more reasonable and at odds with their community.

Maybe they used to be, but now that the definition of gender dysphoria has been broadened to include almost every feeling of discontent it really doesn't mean much. Truscum these days usually just means "I don't think emoji pronouns are uwu valid."

Remember when those old GPS systems used to say "recalibrating...recalibrating..." when you missed a turn?

Yeah, it seems everything has shifted dramatically again in the ~4 years or so when I really tried to understand transgender ideology and the community. Weirdly I never agreed with the unifying truscum tenet of needing dysphoria to be trans (like how I am going to know if any random trans person bothering everyone in the office has the requisite amount of dysphoria or not?), but I found them more likely to recognize their birth sex as a material reality, not insist they belong in anyone's dating pools, and not try to break down sex segregated spaces by brute force, though it was never a guarantee. If that has changed and I need to recalibrate, that's a shame.

Most of them support beliefs that have no basis in science. E.g. "I literally have a male brain in a female body, I was meant to be born male," "I am female and always have been, but I was assigned male at birth," and the belief that taking sex hormones to change fat distribution genuinely gives them a body of the opposite sex.

I took a look at r/truscum, and yeah, you're right. It's not the more logical, biology-recognizing people that I remember, and it does just genuinely read as "not like the ~other~ trans." I genuinely don't see any difference between this and any other trans sub except sometimes they complain about other trans people.

They’re every bit as misogynistic as all the others for one thing.

I’m just as sick of the poly crowd as I am of the trans crowd. Leave us basic bitch homos out of the crazy.

OMG, how dare they exclude straight trans men from lesbianism, and straight trans women from gay identities??? ... I mean, seriously. Everything under the sun is valid according to them, even bi and straight gays/lesbian. But they suddenly draw the line here? "Straight trans men AREN'T lesbians!" Seems kinda gate-keepy to me ;) someone should tell them and see if they implode...

It's so obvious that these fuckers see sexuality as a fun personality trait with evolving rules rather than simply a descriptor of something that happens to be true about you. I'm a lesbian and I have lots in common with some lesbians and absolutely nothing else in common with others. Being gay isn't about listening to a certain kind of music or waving a flag, it is literally just a term to describe homosexuality lol.

This is how you can tell it's an agenda. The whole, "racist aren't welcomed in the community". Actually, they are. There are gay racists, lesbian racists, straight racist. Literally anyone can be racist. Your sexuality has nothing to do with whether you can be racist or not.

Tbh I feel bad for truscum, gender dysphoria is a serious mental illness that they're just trying to cope with, and they get shunned by their own "community" for saying stuff like "transitioning because of a fetish is not valid" and "I know I am biologically male"

I would feel more sorry for them if the MtFs weren't such a bunch of nasty misogynists when you scratch the surface.
