I consider the current genderosexual bullshit to be the direct child of emo culture. I suspect it’s next incarnation is the disability-mental illness fetish raging amongst them on Tik Tok right now.

I think it's a child of both this emo/self-harm culture and pro-ana spaces. The only difference it is all covered it very sick superficial positivity unlike these emo and pro-ana places. When you get your first binder (which slowly destroys your posture, chest, breasts) you get celebration. The more you detach yourself from who you actually are, you get a lot of praise. A bit similar to pro-ana places bragging about eating 0 calories during a whole week or how little their weight is. But the difference being was how these spaces praised you for losing weight but still called you an ugly, fat monster to keep you going. Trans shit says you will kill yourself if you don't transition. And if you have any doubts then they say it's internalized transphobia.

Damn anyways it's terrifying how manipulative this movement is. Seeing how a girl binds her chest is praised makes me feel sick but I am forced to be quiet. I usually choose not to applaud these people and ignore them.
