But tell me again how dangerous trans women are.

But this is largely about cis women (gay or straight, any ethnicity). Why did you need to turn it into something about trans women?

Cis women have barely had even a moment to be free. Can you let them have something? Anything? Without making it be about trans? Would that be okay?

Enough with the self victimization

Likewise. My foremothers fought for an entire century, if not more than that, to gain rights and equality. They literally bled for it. That isn't to say trans people have not also bled for THEIR rights but my god... you don't just want a seat at the table you want THE ENTIRE TABLE.

The trans rights movement has turned misogynist.

TERF, if you think trans people wanting the same rights as anyone else is "the entire table" you are bigoted.

YUP.

Although I hardly consider myself radical. TEF?

I don't think them wanting the same rights is the problem. Why would I think that. I think the methods they're using are the problem.

What methods? Also if you're a self admitted trans exclusionary feminist why are you on this subreddit. Consult Rule 3.

Go find a safe space for your bigotry that isn't here.

Nothing I've said is hateful, harassment or trolling. I am asking for a conversation and alternate methods. Trans people have the right to freely exist and I've never said otherwise. I don't care what bathroom someone uses.

But the thing is: none of that matters. It's a purity test with you people (you people being either trans or allies). In fact, the trans movement invented the purity test. If a person does not agree with EVERYTHING 100% ALL THE TIME they are a MAGAt, right?

How the hell do you expect to plow forward with that attitude? You will tribalize people, and you will tribalize potential allies into enemies. In fact, you ignoring everything I've said about the women's movement proves your selfishness. People came before you: Women, Black folk, Asians, gays... you push them all aside to demand TRANS ONLY, like you're all that matters.

A cis woman gets raped. Many cis women get raped. You turn it into a trans thing.

You totally (and I believe intentionally) missed the point of my comment.

About trans women being dangerous? I got it. And they aren’t. And it’s fucking stupid to keep accusing them of violence and scapegoating and I’m tired of it.

AND… see above.

Trans people (both trans men and women and non-binary people) are actually statistically even more likely to be sexually assaulted, raped and murdered by cis men than cis women are. This is a problem for all of us.
