The professionals that recognize the reality of autogynephilia are getting one thing very wrong

meranii · 2020-07-22T07:53:41+00:00

It definitely isn't harmless for the women that live with or directly around these men on an individual level either. They consider stealing female family members' underwear a "rite of passage" and jerking off into it "just coming to terms with their gender". And if they target children/children's underwear then it's just "wishing for a girlhood they never had!".

A lot of them act like absolute creeps and abusers, too. These are sexual harassers who have found a way to turn themselves into victims by jumping on the ridiculous notion, in woke spaces, that anything "trans" is beyond any form of criticism.

meranii · 2020-09-30T23:32:22+00:00

I saw the thread before anything got deleted, it was 90% people strongly against (transwo)men in women's prison.

Weird how the TiMs are supposedly so fragile that the mere mention of their maleness drives them to suicide, and yet somehow they have no problem taking over and completely controlling all these online spaces. They see themselves as the victims of unkind speech and yet have grabbed so much power that they're controlling the conversation entirely, anything they don't like vanishes. You can't have it both ways, TRAs!

meranii · 2020-07-11T01:33:27+00:00

TRAs don't know how to stop so they'll continue peaking everyone around them by making crazier and crazier demands, something's gotta give sooner or later. Voluntary TRA handmaidens who proclaim TIMs are gorgeous queens are probably too far gone, but the average person/adult is not crazy about being told how to speak and think by ridiculous narcissists who make up 0.3% of the population and are louder and more public about their kink than freakin' furries.

meranii · 2020-08-11T14:46:17+00:00

Lol, the people in that post acting like the OP just accidentally posted in the wrong place. We all know r/actuallesbians is basically a roleplaying forum for AGP men/transbians by now, you just can't give the game away by posting about your manly voice. That kills their "lesbian" boners, hahahah.

meranii · 2020-07-22T04:47:57+00:00

They call it validation but really it means they want to dominate/browbeat women. It's a male trait to define your identity by violent opposition to a supposedly inferior "other".

meranii · 2020-10-25T16:09:54+00:00

Hating women is really fashionable right now among the "woke" as long as they put white in front of it. You could say this kind of misogyny never went out of style but pretending it's some sort of groundbreaking progressiveness is new.

I feel such a visceral revulsion for people that tell a woman to "shut up" like they do JK Rowling, even more so when it's such a concerted media effort. That sort of muzzling language is never used for men they disagree with.

meranii · 2020-08-07T23:03:41+00:00

Ugh, sounds like he wasn't just fishing for compliments, he was also fishing for someone he could come into conflict with. I bet everyone around him was supportive and he can't properly feel like a victim if there's no "terf" to fight against.

I totally get your anger, OP, and commend you for your patience (personally would've probably started to ignore him as soon as the selfies started, but I bet he would've had a roblem with that as well), you tried to give actual good advice that you'd give to an inexperienced girlfriend. But of course the rampant narcissism (weird how they always think being feminine means being a self-involved drama queen) left no space for pragmatic advice, and accusing you of mansplaining is the height of hypocrisy.

Do you think he'll try to tell everyone you know how "transphobic" you are? He might blatantly change stuff around like "she told me I can't wear yoga pants because I'm not a real woman, boohoo".

meranii · 2020-08-15T23:40:04+00:00

All the commenters with trans/pride flags saying "they're only detransitioning because they have unsupportive parents!". Total bullshit, first, they know nothing about these childrens' parents but of course screaming "transphobic" into the ether is their knee-jerk reaction to anything they dislike hearing, and secondly, how were the children out and living as trans if the parents were so unsupportive? A 13 y.o. girl can't transition on her own without the parents' help & money.

I just feel so bad for these kids who think they must perform gender to such a degree, whether it's their gender or opposite gender stereotypes. Must be exhausting, I remember very well how much peer pressure there was at that age, in our class almost every girl wore the same shoes and jeans and we were made fun of if we didn't have similar branded clothing. But at least it wasn't some arms race over who could be the most dysphoric or non-binary, lol.

meranii · 2020-07-16T03:14:22+00:00

Men would've dismantled patriarchy a thousand years ago if it weren't a net positive for the vast majority of men. Historically, oppressing 50% of the population automatically made you part of the "winning" half, even if you're a complete loser otherwise.

Men on the internet who speak out against the patriarchy only do so as a way to complain about how their particular personality or lifestyle isn't seen as the most manly and admired in society ("I'm a socially awkward nerd, so unfair! Toxic masculinity hurts me most of all!"), if you actually expect them to ally with women you'll quickly find that any feminism that makes them slightly uncomfortable or offended will be cause for them to abandon the movement.

It's no surprise that men that were nerdy and "weak" growing up and then reach success later in life (tech bros, former media darlings like Joss Whedon and Louis CK) are, while outwardly claiming to support equality, some of the most misogynistic opportunists around.

meranii · 2020-11-06T00:28:04+00:00

They all keep repeating "transwomen have it so much harder than cis women". If it were true, you wouldn't have to say it ad nauseam and could actually point to some evidence. Plus, none of the comments actually have any answers to the "holes in the narrative" the OP complains about, it's all just "yeah but it's so tough being trans!" or "but terfs suck, poor us". And you know why? Because TRA proselytizing is based on a bunch of lies, you can't argue reality away.

Also, to the TiMs who claim they actually deal with sexism and misogyny too. Nah, you don't. You deal with people being revolted when they see a man awkwardly and deludedly pretending to be a woman.

meranii · 2020-07-22T04:57:29+00:00

It's absolute insanity, reddit is full of men who are outright white supremacists, men who want to hurt and rape women and children, men who tell other men they are worthless and should kill themselves, men who spout rhetoric that emboldens political assassinations and mass shootings, etc etc.

But the TERFs are the big bad boogeyman?

It's the same types that years ago rallied against "feminazis", only because that fell out of favor they needed a new term to hate on outspoken women.

meranii · 2020-09-22T18:39:51+00:00

J K Rowling and her DGAF attitude is one of the shining lights in an otherwise very bleak 2020.

meranii · 2020-08-25T01:11:23+00:00

I see exchanges like that a lot online and it's so strange to me. These people really think being critical of gender and aware of the reality of sex-based oppression is on the level of being a racist, so when they publicly shittalk "terfs", everyone can see how tolerant and inclusive they are. Except a terf has never hurt anyone, we do not condone violence and are not a danger to human rights. But sure, saying "I was born a woman and you were not" is the most horrible and hateful thing anyone has ever done to another person.

meranii · 2020-07-21T04:35:13+00:00

Trans women absolutely can be beautiful/brave/stunning in the same way every person on earth can be, some are, some aren't. I only agree that they cannot biologically become women, which is no fault of their own but simply (non-hateful) reality.

What this post said I would only reserve for an individual transwoman that has become abusive and entitled to enter female spaces.

meranii · 2020-07-12T04:00:41+00:00

Written by an incel with AGP who watches porn and anime all day. LOL @ the instructions to watch certain animes in a certain order, that is equal levels hilarious and pathetic.

If you'd showed me this 3 years ago I would've said it's just make believe - fetishistic online roleplaying with no basis in reality. But after seeing the various trans subreddits myself it's clear there are a lot of sad little men like this out there.

meranii · 2020-08-21T23:57:16+00:00

It's a hallmark of irrational and self-obsessed people that anything that makes them feel bad, or even just uncomfortable, means the other person is automatically bad, malicious, an enemy. Nothing Olivia said was mean or even unkind or wrong, and they cannot actually point to anything specific, but they still freak out and say it's transphobic. Why? Because they feel it somehow is. Because a "terf" should not be allowed to speak at all. Anyone who disagrees with them and their worldview is not allowed to speak.

Notice how they needed to see Amy (who is firmly pro-trans) grovel and apologize over and over again? And it still won't be good enough, years down the line Amy's TRA "friends" will still bring up how she "gave terfs a platform". They enjoy putting the emotional thumbscrews on any women who need to be "punished" for stepping out of line.

meranii · 2020-07-19T02:43:37+00:00

So funny how "nonbinary" (which I think is BS anyway since none of us fit into a perfect binary gender performance) people do not want to be called trans but somehow nonbinaries are still supposedly an authority on trans matters.

Oh well, anything to beat down women.

meranii · 2020-08-07T16:29:33+00:00

I didn't wear ultra feminine clothing as a teenager either. I preferred baggy pants and huge flannel shirts (they were cool back in the 90s). It was what it was at the time, I didn't make a big deal of it nor tried to change my "gender identity" because of it.

Same, in the early to mid-90s short hair and grunge were all the rage (even if my friends and I were a little young to really get into it), we never pretended this gave us a whole new gender. Gender-neutral clothes (baggy sweatshirts, men's cut Levis, Doc Martens boots) were just normal, none of us were "brave" for our style. Imagine thinking yourself more authentic than other girls because of what you pull out of your closet?

meranii · 2020-07-21T15:55:37+00:00

Trans"girls" using their identity to get validation from girls/women. I wonder what they'll do once they've driven out all the "cis" women/girls/teens, who will they use for their affirmation then? Because we all know staying in their trans spaces isn't enough for them.

I'm still convinced like 90% of them are not actually trans but pathetic little proto-incels who don't feel masculine enough (despite jerking it to porn 3 times a day) and they want to get close to women by pretending they are women. Or simply older pedos who know being a pedo isn't socially acceptable so they become "cute little girly transbians" instead and browse reddit to talk to teen girls. If you looked at the PMs they send to actual girls there'd probably be a lot of sexual harassment under the guise of "girl talk".

meranii · 2020-07-10T00:16:37+00:00

Why is it always the TIMs saying they feel "less safe" if anyone says anything they don't like? I hate this co-opting of women's concerns over our physical safety, he's been some ugly guy his whole life, he's now an ugly guy in a dress, no one even gives enough of a shit about him to do him harm. It's only his fragile man ego that is in danger of shattering because someone dared imply he's not the center of the universe.

meranii · 2020-08-16T01:44:54+00:00

We need more women like her, she's got strong "fuck off" energy and isn't afraid to be loud about it to people who would trample her rights.

meranii · 2020-08-16T01:43:29+00:00

It's TRAs and women online selling nudes (through cam work, onlyfans and whatever) and thinking themselves an oppressed minority for it. Meanwhile, you don't hear from women that have been victims of human trafficking that they felt "empowered" by it and that you can't criticize what happened to them.

meranii · 2020-08-11T15:30:42+00:00

Yep, I think the general public is mostly unaware of what "self ID" for trans people actually means and how it would obliterate women's rights to have safety in female spaces, how even the most blatant pervs could gain entry and not be removed anymore. They were trying to smuggle that into British law before people were fully informed because it is fundamentally ridiculous.

meranii · 2020-07-12T04:03:48+00:00

Insane that gendercritical subs got banned when incel subs like that stay up, where you can find step-by-step instructions on how to fuck up your life, psyche and body. Not that the incels have much of a life going on anyway.

meranii · 2020-08-24T05:52:30+00:00

So on the JK Rowling sub, people who actually agree with JK Rowling get their comments deleted? Wut?

meranii · 2020-08-10T23:21:36+00:00

They argue that their "pain" of not feeling like the right gender means they never got to enjoy male privilege... which is such a blatant lie.

About your last point, that has never made sense to me either. TRAs go on and on about cis privilege and put down any supposedly cis person who dares speak up with a differing opinion, but how do they know that person is cis? What if that is actually trans person that hasn't had their public "coming out" yet OR is (like they always claim they can) already passing 100%? Any cis could be trans as far as they know. That's why TRAs want people to label themselves as cis vs. trans, so they can put them in the category they can instantly dismiss and talk over. And if you look on social media, it works, so many dummies loudly proclaiming how they're cis and apologizing for their "privilege" and pledging that transpeople will always come first.

meranii · 2020-08-07T16:24:16+00:00

Okay, styling yourself with shortish hair and a checkered shirt is a whole-ass identity now? Lol, god forbid they actually have to get a personality, better slap some labels on yourself instead that make you "special".

meranii · 2020-08-09T23:35:29+00:00

For fuck's sake, why do so many of them have anime pics or reference hentai shit? Their entire identities are taken over by their porny Japanese cartoon obsession.

meranii · 2020-08-22T02:04:26+00:00

A bunch of the mods of women's subs on reddit (the few that are left) are transwomen and the rest are men and handmaidens, spineless and afraid of being banned themselves. I don't doubt at all that lots of real women think they do good by shaming other women for not buying what the TRAs are selling, but online anyone can identify as anything, and with how many AGPs are into roleplaying as women... or do you mean irl?

meranii · 2020-07-16T03:24:10+00:00

Don't worry, men, if you feel so oppressed by being born as men (not being seen as superior in all areas of public life anymore sure is tough, especially when deep down you just know you actually are better than women), just identify as women. Now the feminists that would've boohooed your MRA whining will have no choice but to admit you are truly victims, and your low opinion of biological women will forevermore be swept under the rug.

meranii · 2020-07-10T23:53:33+00:00

Reddit cares [...] about men

Fixed it for you, women on reddit who? Reddit has never given a shit about women, from jerking off to underage girls, making incels a mainstream phenomenon to using Ellen Pao as a scapegoat, women basically fought for a place on a reddit that never wanted them, and now as we've become too high in numbers for them to ignore we have to be banned down to the last subreddit. Because god forbid we make the menfolk uncomfortable with our opinions as they're jerking it in their mom's basement.

meranii · 2020-07-21T16:13:44+00:00

I have no problem with intersectional feminism in the academic sense, but online it's been misunderstood as sort of a "privilege tally/ladder" where you have more or fewer privilege points than someone else and you are automatically an oppressor or a victim, i.e. a "cis" woman is more privileged than a transwoman and therefore the individual transwoman is justified in endlessly shitting on "cis" women, despite women as a class having been systematically oppressed and used as breeding stock for thousands of years, and the transwoman might just be a horny straight neckbeard with an AGP fetish whose family has coddled him his entire life.

It really has created an "us vs. them" feminism and I'm not sure how we're supposed to get out of this toxic mode of thinking, because currently I think feminism is much more fractured and weaker than it's ever been.

meranii · 2020-07-08T15:33:41+00:00

There's so much abuse in elder care, sexual abuse, physical abuse and neglect, people are lying in their beds and their full diapers go unchanged for hours and hours, their muscles atrophy and they develop bedsores because a lot of those places are understaffed and there's barely any time for individual care... but sure, let's please focus our efforts on their gender identity, the performance of which they might remember to keep up that day (or not). Put a wig and some makeup on the angry old guy while poor old Barbara's bedpan hasn't been emptied in a day. Then some other day he might try to attack the nurse for putting the wig on him because treating him like a woman is obviously insulting.

meranii · 2020-08-30T05:10:59+00:00

Yep, it's socially maladjusted people with low self esteem and no experience in life who have been fed the "hero's journey" narrative that they're super special. They've often been raised on video games where they can slip in and out of other identities, of course they think this is also possible irl. When we (the "NPCs", who needs empathy when everyone else is just a background character?) don't validate their transness, out come the insults and threats like they're in a Call of Duty voice chat.

meranii · 2020-08-09T23:53:53+00:00

When a misogynistic 4chan troll turns TRA...

Is there a pic of the guy where you can see what he looks like? Because out of 100 trans "women" I've seen who were convinced they passed oh so perfectly, maybe one did outside of carefully posed and styled pics that they themselves put online.

meranii · 2020-07-22T04:39:10+00:00

Pretty soon "cis" people speaking about trans issues at all will be considered transphobic. On woke twitter whenever any issue arises, a bunch of handmaidens always say "before we discuss this we have to wait for trans people to speak first, their opinion is the one that matters!". They honestly speak like brainwashed slaves who love when their masters tell them what opinion to have.

meranii · 2020-08-12T00:20:48+00:00

First of all, congrats on the healthy baby! And also congrats on your strength, dayum.

A lot of TiFs have very strong internalized misogyny and, though they always deny it, it plays a large role in their transition and it's why they say "oh I always knew I wasn't like other girls!". When they transition they think letting that misogyny hang out makes them all the more manly, and they probably also bond with shitty bio men that way. TiFs are also generally completely uninterested in feminism or supporting women in general, they really try so hard to be "tough" bros.

meranii · 2020-08-29T06:27:46+00:00

Sounds like another MtF incel. It's not suprising that TRAs' behavior has gotten so egregiously pushy and anti-woman, society's support for them bolsters these incels/MRA types who've decided they can game the system by identifying into women's "privileges". Of course we know these privileges are all in their mind, they are socially maladjusted losers with behavioral/mental problems who mistake their own desire for women's bodies for a supposed power women have (when in reality men thinking like them has been the basis of controlling and disenfranchising women for millennia).

meranii · 2020-07-23T10:49:51+00:00

A fantastic article, I went in just thinking I'd skim it (life is hectic) but it really grabbed me.

It is horrifying and exhausting to realize that TRA threats of violence are exactly the same as old-school misogynistic violence that was used for thousands of years to keep women downtrodden and in fear of speaking up against injustice. Only you used to at least be allowed to say that the person threatening to punch/beat/rape you was a man, and your cry for help was not considered fucking hate speech. Now, these violent men revel in their verbal threats and shamelessly egg each other on.

meranii · 2020-08-22T00:09:02+00:00

The male entitlement that you can just enter any space you want and people there have to treat you 100% how you want to be treated. Even the TiMs who don't turn out to be rapists like this asshole have this entitlement that they don't actually have to put the work in or adjust to new social circles, it's the women who have to change and cater to them.

It's infuriating how the TiMs who respond to him are bitter about progressives not being "welcoming enough" to them, when these are the only women who'll even welcome them at all.

meranii · 2020-08-22T00:54:33+00:00

I can't believe that they do see trans women as women.

Sometimes those who have doubts and shame (i.e. women deep down thinking "hhmm, but after all this he still looks male" and feeling immediately guilty for it) are the most ardent defenders of an ideology. Because by lashing out against the "enemy", they prove to themselves and others that their thoughts are pure.

meranii · 2020-07-23T13:45:53+00:00

If my boss told me to wear more makeup to be sexier for zoom meetings I'd straight up put on clown makeup and then play dumb when he complains.

Personally, I've only ever encountered the (no less sexist) opposite, where male bosses thought they could complain to me about middle aged women dressing "too young" or "too sexy" because they dared wear a skirt and the boss has some really weird conservative views (i.e. only young sexy women should show their legs).

meranii · 2020-07-22T05:03:12+00:00

Alicia Strada is my hero. She's everything these ugly violent men that threaten her could never be.

meranii · 2020-07-18T13:41:33+00:00

Lmao, they can just seethe as far as I'm concerned. It sure must be awful to always get what you want and then this app comes along and all the male entitlement in the world doesn't get you in.

meranii · 2020-09-23T13:55:30+00:00

Agreed, and I'd like to add: A type of feminism that caters to men first and foremost is no feminism at all.

"What do you mean, don't jump off a building with my surgically created birdwing-arms?! You're being birdphobic, I'll show you I can fly if it's the last thing I do!"

meranii · 2020-08-17T00:18:42+00:00

They're fine with pedophilia but draw the line at pictures promoting terrorism? Ridiculous and insane.

Reddit has never had a problem with male depravity unless it reflected badly on them and had direct con$equences. But if the TRAs complain about gendercritical content then all the real feminist subs quietly get banned for being "hateful". Directly hateful & harmful perverted subs against women and children? A-okay, apparently. The mods of that sub (and admins who don't ban) belong in jail.

meranii · 2020-08-18T00:54:05+00:00

Seriously, who would've thought that these gross 4chan trolls would just 5-10 years later spew their toxic shit on all other social media under the guise of "progressive" transness. I suppose masturbating to traps and loli hentai during your formative years means you can now consider yourself a leader in "bringing positive social change" (from his design website) to the next generation.

meranii · 2020-07-21T04:36:55+00:00

Validation in the TRA social media context means you promise never to disagree with that person about anything and to always make them feel good with your words and actions. Basically what an abusive person demands from their partner.

meranii · 2020-08-22T02:27:06+00:00

post-op genitalia are slightly different from their cisgender counterparts

That part really stood out to me too. The whole article is about what an absolute horrorshow these mutilated genitals look like, and they just slip in that they're "slightly different"??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Sorry, but my vagina has nothing in common with a pus-filled surgical wound. I bet the team of doctors who saved "Carlie's" life by cutting off the rotting parts from his mutilated genitals were horrified, even if the article tries to subtly shame them for not having "experience" with self-styled bodyhorror.

meranii · 2020-08-16T01:28:02+00:00

100%, conservative men can piss right off, they're just as much enemies to women's rights as TRAs are (if they aren't one and the same, anyway).

meranii · 2020-08-09T23:44:09+00:00

Advocates for LGB issues in general don't trample women's rights, don't deny basic biology, don't fantasize about invading women's spaces and don't fundamentally ask you to change how you speak and think.

meranii · 2020-07-23T10:59:31+00:00

Reddit has never cared one bit about getting rid of misogyny. Even the worst incel sub of all was only banned after its users told a guy to kill himself. The fatphobia sub was only booted after people there harassed imgur staff. The pedophilia sub thrived for years and it took Anderson Cooper reporting on it for the admins to act. The unmeasurable damage subs like these did directly & indirectly to women & girls, and how they messed up male psyches forever...

Now the feminist/gender critical subs that never hurt anyone? Gone in the blink of an eye just because some TRAs campaigned against it.

meranii · 2020-07-17T01:17:54+00:00

Give an inch, they'll take a mile (while calling you hateful for not offering every last mile you have).

meranii · 2020-09-29T23:06:12+00:00

Honestly, I have little sympathy for that person. Sounds like his family and the people around him have done so much for him and while he acknowledges his wife's hard work, there's no mention of what he's done for her or her actual feelings. Just "she lovingly supported me", now it'd be embarrassing to tell her and everyone else he's changed his mind.

It's still all narcissism, he doesn't like this and that about being a woman, it's not awesome and special and sexy like he thought it would be. I see a total lack of personal responsibility, he "feels lied to" and is delusional about supposedly being able to pass as male or female.

meranii · 2020-09-19T19:40:45+00:00

Yep, I saw an article on Die Zeit yesterday, an interview between a male journalist and a 62-year-old TiM, head of a tv programme, who "bravely" came out now that he's the boss of an entire syndicate and everyone in the mainstream falls all over themselves to champion to trans issues.

He had such fantastic, wise quotes as (translated from German) "A woman is a woman is a woman" (which he obviously considers himself) and "I live who I truly am now". Great.... /s Two men talking about the question "whether a woman is born a woman or society makes her one". I honestly thought it was both overly simplistic and highly ofensive in an "awww I'm so nice and harmless, it's just about being ~authentically myself~". When really it's a highly powerful man who needs all his employees and the media to call him a real woman, meanwhile he's never done anything for women in Germany in his entire life.

I sadly don't see my fellow Germans putting up a fight about it.

meranii · 2020-08-22T00:14:59+00:00

I think it's a woman who considers herself lesbian enby... my heart goes out to her that when she thought she was being open-minded by having a "lesbian affair" with a transwoman, she didn't think it would turn into the typical old "abusive man rapes woman" story. In the end, all the new gender identity stuff doesn't change men's behavior toward women.

meranii · 2020-08-16T01:24:35+00:00

Couldn't agree more. It's not more authentic, unless you're a brainless idiot you already know that women have stretch marks/cellulite/rolls/wrinles/hair on their body, it's just instagram advertising finding a new niche that they can wring some money out of. It's not aimed at men to get them to stop shaming women with unrealistic beauty standards (they're too busy jerking it to bikini pics of underage girls on insta anyway), it's aimed at insecure women who are more likely to spend their money with companies that give them the feeling they're "celebrating" their natural bodies. If this advertising trend doesn't work out for them they're right back to airbrushing everything.

I personally don't care if the models of the online shops I frequent have clear skin, cellulite or scars or whatever, but 99% of the models there are still size 00 and1.80m tall, I would actually appreciate if they had more average body types so the clothes won't fit completely different on 99.9% of their female customers. That would be a pragmatic change in my eyes.

meranii · 2020-08-15T23:14:33+00:00

Ridiculous, they get rid of the feminist subs with barely a word in protest from women on reddit (trollx and twoX were celebrating that shit) but try the same censorship and fail when it's only about a word about hentai/anime, then they run with their tail between their legs. Goes to show that TRAs are really good at coming in hot and righteous but when their targets bully back, they turn into the biggest cowards.

Honestly, it pains me that women don't have as much solidarity or backbone for our own much more fundamental issues, patriarchy has really done a number on so many of us.

meranii · 2020-08-10T23:09:19+00:00

TRAs trying to hide their racism and misogyny behind the "terf" label that they're trying to put on black women who don't bow down to their demands. Imagine thinking you're a victim of oppression while you call black women "beasts", "manly" and threaten them with your pathetic "feminine penis".

meranii · 2020-07-23T13:15:31+00:00

I'm sure men will survive our "blatant sexism", lol. God forbid they taste even a verbal smidgen of what women have gone through since the dawn of time because we're frustrated and venting. We are no physical/social/political threat to men unlike they are to us. And why should we police our tone because of what some internet rando might think of us? Our activism isn't contingent on men liking us, in fact I'd say always being concerned with staying polite and being afraid of seeming "emotional" over actual male BS has hurt women FAR MORE than it has helped.

Those "plenty of anti-pornography men" you know still jerk it to hardcore anal scenes or "barely legals", I guarantee it, they just want to feel superior to other pornsick men.

meranii · 2020-08-25T04:32:52+00:00

100%, thank you for the dose of reality. <3

I agree that in a few years, we'll all have moved on from TWAW trend and the current gender cult, but until then they will demonize women who try to protect themselves, and then they will just attack women in a new different way. It's always the same throughout the centuries.

meranii · 2020-08-21T23:41:38+00:00

That doctor never harmed or shamed the TiM patient in any way, in fact I think there was some real human concern for the patient. Finding a doc like that when I've had actual medical issues (that were not a choice like taking hormones because you're a guy who wants boobs) has often been difficult and the ones that take their time are a godsend.

TRAs are putting a lot of pressure on medical workers to just give them what they want and to never ask questions or give advice, all the while making appointment after appointment for their hormones. Honestly wish general practitioners could just opt out of wasting their time on gender-obsessed patients who clog up the system with elective stuff.

meranii · 2020-08-14T16:09:14+00:00

That is fucking outrageous. Trans women are basically male terrorists to women who do not submit to their agenda.

meranii · 2020-08-11T17:54:01+00:00

Bwahaha!

meranii · 2020-07-24T17:05:25+00:00

I just sorted that sub's past week by controversial, unsurprisingly it's almost all TiMs and their pics are seriously vile.

meranii · 2020-07-23T10:38:23+00:00

Everything's gotta be inclusive now that used to try to lift up women, and bio women are once again in last place.

When it comes to men needing to be inclusive? Suddenly crickets from the TRA camp. I recently even saw a TiF (wannabe-dude) online that blamed WOMEN for queer events, which she said were too feminine-coded for her taste, not being accepting enough of trans masculinity. When someone pointed out to her that maybe cis straight & gay men should start similar events that included transmen more, instead of this being feminine events' responsibility, she called the person transphobic.

meranii · 2020-07-11T00:06:01+00:00

It's a different generation now and gen z is honestly FUCKED. Young women now are so brainwashed by the patriarchy in the extremely sexist new media (youtube, insta, twitter, tiktok, onlyfans) where any semblance of real feminism has been pushed out in favor of choice feminism, it's all been set up by fake-liberal (actual alt-right libertarian) tech bros (=men) with ads and sponsorships run by exactly the same men. Equality for women has been eroded in the last 10 years, not by women but by a manipulative system still run almost entirely by men.

Every girl wants to be a fucking Kardashian clone with 5 pounds of make up on her face, fake lashes, a big cleavage and ass while spouting brain dead slogans that seek to find empowerment in selling themselves, so of course they think men looking and acting like that is also normal. They think a toothless feminism that "doesn't demonize men" is the height of fairness because that's what men say is acceptable as they don't feel threatened by it (unlike by radfem ideas), while these guys jerk off to braindead bimbo women and hate them at the same time. Misogyny doesn't stop even when you turn yourself into the willing "cool girl" fuckdoll men say they desire, they'll just call you a thot and hate you anyway.

You can't blame Twilight too much for it, it was one Mormon woman's masturbatory (but still G-rated) fantasy and of course men made fun of it because it wasn't by them or for them, but it was also just really bad plot- and quality-wise. Still, it was extremely tame and at least woman-centered compared to all the male-written fantasy of the '80s, '90s and aughts, where women were basically flesh prizes for the main characters to win. Romanticizing abuse is something men have wanted women to do for centuries now and somehow progress has been turned into "women now do the same thing men have always done, which is to put down extraordinary and outspoken women" (verbally while men also do it physically), instead of "women fight for women's voices to be heard". The root of all evil is women still working under patriarchy to seek approval from and cater to men that just happen to come in all shapes and genders now, yet in the end they're still the same old horny & hateful men that want you to shut up and look pretty.

meranii · 2020-08-27T14:42:49+00:00

Wow, this is straight up malicious and evil ("we will use "cis" handmaidens to gain a majority in these small groups for women and then take over"), planning to infiltrate and kill organizations that want to provide safe spaces for biological women.

meranii · 2020-07-16T01:11:12+00:00

You expect the TIMs, uh sorry I mean "real women", to actually know what's in medication that us fake women take? Or anything about regular biological functions of someone born female? Psh, that's not fun and sexy like knee-high stockings or colorful wigs are!

meranii · 2020-10-07T01:11:28+00:00

I just think they post these things for attention and to masturbate over the replies they get.

In fact, I doubt this guy is "booked in" for an augmentation at all, before any kind of surgery there'd surely be conversations about size and such with the surgeon, but this person acts really clueless.

meranii · 2020-08-18T00:23:54+00:00

Awful, are we calling it "gender confirmation surgery" now? That is the most doublespeak shit I've heard lately. There's no "confirmation" gong on, they're Frankensteining genital-adjacent fleshy lumps and oozing openings out of skin and colon tissue never meant for such use.

The pic of this "nurse" is creepy as fuck, this article is just someone's medical kink fantasy, right? Why would this person talk about "dirty dreams" and "blowjob fantasies" in the middle of an article about caring for their patients and checking their genitals? Oh ick, I just googled her, she's a comedian and actual ICU nurse. Imagine you wake up in that ICU after a car accident and that freak is grinning down at you.

meranii · 2020-07-16T01:54:40+00:00

Hey now, giving birth through your male anus is perfectly natural and a super sexy womanly thing to do! Vaginas are transphobic anyway (unless they are perfect neo-vaginas)! Just put on a short skirt and knee-high schoolgirl socks, let that foodbaby gut hang out, head to your local hospital's labor & delivery room, tell 'em you're giving trans-birth (trirth?) and that doctor will validate you for sure! They absolutely won't call security and have you committed. /s

meranii · 2020-09-30T23:35:02+00:00

So if she "fully passed" she'd go to a male prison? Yeah right. The LIES they tell themselves and others, sheesh.

meranii · 2020-08-18T00:44:38+00:00

He hates his mother and by extension women, it's all meant to be insulting.

Women are demeaned for having a period and then for getting "old" and not having a period anymore. It's all the same old misogyny, men have always thought they know more about women & our anatomy than women do, new is just that they now consider themselves the better women as well.

meranii · 2020-07-23T13:02:01+00:00

I see women so often defend men and men's systemic sexism against criticism with basically "not all men!" and I just feel sorry for 'em because all the "nice" men will never put in the same effort when it would actually cost those them more than righteous words. "Nice" men have never made any social improvements for women, it's all self-interest.

meranii · 2020-07-20T13:10:52+00:00

Yeah, I'm wondering if the male friend did it for a laugh, as in "yeah sure honey, you're sooooo male and they totally won't mind..." because she only ever talks about her transition and he's probably TIRED of it. Meanwhile he left her alone to get his d*ck sucked.

She's delusional, though, and I can't feel too bad for her because she's showing the same kind of blind entitlement and inability to deal with people's honest reaction to reality that TiMs have, only gay men generally don't feel threatened by women.

meranii · 2020-07-08T15:59:18+00:00

I'm so sorry you've had to endure his constant harassment. The behavior of socially-stunted, obsessive and entitled men hasn't changed (I've known guys like that and had similar experiences), only now many of them call themselves women and we're supposed to pretend this isn't typical male stalker behavior. Now these guys don't just want to fuck you, they want to be you, wear your identity and your skin like a mask. Like Silence of the Lambs, but you're supposed to feel bad for and encourage Buffalo Bill. Can't it just be trans-inclusive and put the lotion on its skin?

meranii · 2020-07-16T01:18:29+00:00

Being a transwoman is basically the trump card they use against badly informed intersectional feminists, there is apparently no greater oppression in life than to be a dumpy middle aged guy who likes to jerk off while wearing women's panties and lipstick. If transmen are ever talked about (they rarely are unless it's to invalidate female only spaces), suddenly it's verboten to mention internalized misogyny as a reason for their transition or to imply that once they pass as men, they make use of male privilege for their own gain, despite both concepts being generally accepted for "cis" people.

meranii · 2020-08-30T05:02:47+00:00

"I just want to be seen and valid" = "I'm a raging narcissist who needs to be the center of attention everywhere, otherwise I will cry discrimination"

Their personal gender hangups are not relevant to mainstream discourse in any way and yet they are dominating the scene in 2020 when we have so many bigger problems going on.

meranii · 2020-08-23T01:39:02+00:00

Laverne Cox does not have a pussy, nevermind a wet-ass pussy.

But appropriating women's everything is a TRA like him's bread-and-butter.

meranii · 2020-08-16T23:31:59+00:00

Right, men of any political leaning always argue that it's the other side that does the raping, but newsflash, it's men being given power over anyone and making the rules that leads to rape. Doesn't matter left, right or whatever... the common denominator is horny men who think their dicks are more important than someone else's right to life and happiness.

meranii · 2020-08-16T00:11:57+00:00

Good article. I've felt more and more in the last 10 years or so (possibly it was going on long before then and I wasn't paying attention) how feminism online has devolved into this "feel good" hobby for women, where we complain about a couple of "simple" injustices, everyone agrees, it's very black and white, and on top of that we can buy "feminist" merch with cute "girl power!" slogans from all sorts of companies. I felt mildly uncomfortable about it before the TRA wave hit, but now the dark side of this pop feminism has really reared its lazy, shallow, male-pandering head.

It's not allowed to actually ask uncomfortable questions or express conflicts that go against the pop feminism trend. It's why people were so shocked when JK Rowling suddenly went against the approved flavor of discussion and actually in depth against one of the biggest current "trends" (which is to mindlessly post "transwomen are women <3" to a chorus of the same), because until then JK Rowling was seen as sort of a pop feminism icon: not at all radical, popular without question, she gave us nerdy-but-cool hermione (a girl being the sidekick is good enough, right?) and her rags-to-riches story seemed to signal the soothing message "women can do it all!".

Radical feminism has been turned into this dirty word, like it's now hateful in online feminist circles to not always seek male (clothed as women) approval for your "activism". If it can even still be called activism when mainstream feminism has been so neutered and commodified.

meranii · 2020-08-14T16:21:56+00:00

Honestly, the plot of the episode sounds like hot-ass garbage. Like someone thought to himself "dumb gamer shit but make it woke and exaggerated". If anything it calls out gender identity as a complete construct, like male AGP roleplaying online taken to the next level. The ending that the wife is "allowed to sleep with other men" (idk how it plays out in the episode so I can only go by what you wrote) would surely anger most guys watching it, wouldn't that be basically "being cucked" or whatever MRAs online call it? She lives her life for real while all the men on the show get is a fantasy of being/fucking a cute Asian girl.

meranii · 2020-08-08T20:52:18+00:00

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

meranii · 2020-09-16T09:56:41+00:00

TiFs and TiMs are being used as whataboutism (= distraction and deflection) in every discussion about women's issues.

meranii · 2020-08-29T06:22:03+00:00

Classic narcissistic behavior, the expectation that you should fall at his feet because he's so "sexy". A lot of men who dress like women or even think they are women do it because they think people will find them even hotter that way, as completely misguided as it is.

meranii · 2020-08-23T04:58:33+00:00

You're exactly right, I've never heard of a TiM wanting to go to a male gynecologist, they seem to prefer female docs in general as targets for all their emotional and physical "needs". Probably because it doesn't fit their AGP fantasy, and because a male doc is more likely to tell them to fuck off.

meranii · 2020-08-08T21:02:52+00:00

My country (in Europe) has had relatively few serial killers in the last decades but several of them are TiMs. Coincidence? Hmmm...

Recently it was a news story here that a woman impersonated a police officer and got away with bothering people for a whole while, a friend (an actual police officer) let her accompany him in his police car.... turns out this "woman" was a TiM whose fetish was being seen as a woman in a position of authority. News outlets only referred to him as a woman, it was only when I thought the story sounded fishy that I researched & found out the details. I imagine TiM killers will only be referred to as women from now on, no mention of their maleness. "Female" violent crimes and sex crime rates are about to go on a steep rise (and male rates will drop due to TiFs), soon talking about specifically male violence/toxic masculinity will be impossible because the statistics will be all messed up.

meranii · 2020-07-11T01:41:06+00:00

He is definitely the type to get off on the thought of being sent to a women's prison and hiding something in his ass just so the guards have to do a cavity search. Sorry if that was a crude thing to say but he would not miss a single opportunity to sexually harass every woman there, whether correctional officer or inmate.

meranii · 2020-07-10T23:58:15+00:00

Yep, once every "enemy sub" on reddit has been banned, they'll need someone else to fight (fascist thought always needs an enemy or "other" to justify its existence) and they'll brigade here.

meranii · 2020-10-13T12:16:01+00:00

You mean that SO MANY men hate women? When I started reading anonymous online forums and saw massive collections of men's porn fiction/drawings/pornos, probably in the late '90s or early 2000s. I had always known there were misogynists and that society is sexist etc., but I'd never really experienced how visceral and hateful whole organized groups of thousands of men were in wanting to kill/rape/enslave women, how men growing up in developed countries fantasized online about taking human rights away from women again, how they see us as holes for fucking only and undeserving of basic respect otherwise, how they masturbate to images of severely abused women, etc.

meranii · 2020-08-23T01:08:11+00:00

Porn & hentai obsessed guys who were raised on online forums like 4chan and reddit, where "men are so oppressed" was a fan-favorite of self-victimization. They like to feel like even bigger victims now that they identify as trans, that's why they're trying to aggressively brand everyone a "terf" who disagrees with them.

Honestly, that's why reddit TRAs & mods got such backlash for trying to ban the usage of "traps" in their anime subs, the TRAs and the people wanking it to cartoon "traps" are often one and the same, just in a different stage of development.

meranii · 2020-08-22T00:59:40+00:00

Damn, I'm so sorry this has happened to you. I wish there had been more solidarity from other women for you, they probably were afraid to publicly support you because then HR would be coming for them next. All this did was to signal to TRAs at your company that it's possible to bully women out of senior positions (and soon those spots will be filled by transwomen).

meranii · 2020-08-11T15:42:32+00:00

I've literally never in my over 30 years of life had a biological woman either sexually or physically threaten me, neither online nor offline. Men, on the other hand...

This shit is so obvious male aggression and misogyny it hurts. TRAs sometimes even admit that they behave like shit but they blame it on hormones/second puberty, like it isn't typical male rage at not instantly getting what they want (a fantasy anime girl body that everyone has to acknowledge as real).

meranii · 2020-07-23T13:19:23+00:00

Exactly, thank you for the reply. It's sad that their mask is fooling so many but I still have hope that the tide will turn, as long as enough of us keep speaking up even if they try to silence us.

meranii · 2020-07-20T12:58:34+00:00

And how come he even survived "boymode"? I thought any act of being misgendered is literal violence, and not treating a TiM 100% as female is literal erasure of their existence?

That TiM honestly needs to cancel himself for such an act of murderous transphobia agains a member of the trans community!

meranii · 2020-07-11T00:01:14+00:00

I don't think I've ever seen them say anything about trans issues but they'll definitely be banned because not dating a shitty man is obviously the greatest HATE you can ever be capable of in this world.

meranii · 2020-07-09T03:28:20+00:00

Oh my, that list is delightful and absolutely BRUTAL.

meranii · 2020-08-21T04:55:06+00:00

Indya Moore's modeling face always look like he's itching to break a woman's nose for not using his preferred pronouns (they/them, lol). Total trash.

Honestly, to harass women for men committing violence against transwomen, while dating someone you know to be violent? Indya is probably violent and messy himself and while I don't want him to be hurt or killed, transwomen really shouldn't act surprised when they go for known abusers who will fuck anything that looks sorta-female. But sure, it's still all women's fault, the narcissism doesn't allow for personal responsibility.

meranii
