@ayyndrew@MightBeStatic He's the bottom panel of the rake meme. Same thing with extra steps.
Confrontational in form only, and for sure cowardly and uncommunicative. He said this to a stranger on the internet. Didn't confront the substance of what was said. Didn't say anything of substance either.
@seraphine38776@cisnistr You're mad at me now because I ruined the one moment you get where YOU are the one purity testing others for a change. Am I wrong? Either way, enjoy your pointless stand, it has defended nobody from anything and hurt people's feelings. You ripped those strawmen to shreds, though
@seraphine38776@cisnistr And also realize that the fact some people's ideas of lesbianism don't align with yours, something that will ALWAYS be the case by the way, doesn't make you less of a lesbian or suddenly force you to date anyone you don't want
@seraphine38776@cisnistr I said you're re-using transphobic talking points. *Structurally*. And that you should know that pattern of expression better. Not that you're being transphobic specifically.
I did not say "man up" is transphobic either. It is problematic in other ways
@CH2Oldehyde@typicalsofs So what? It sounds gross to me but so does a lot of other shit a lot of people jerk off to. "Everyone knows" it's "obviously" bad. But I wonder what exactly makes it different from fiction featuring gore, torture, murder, where it's understood fiction is separate from reality?
@seraphine38776@cisnistr "I am just stating the reality that being a man should be treated as such."
Absolutely wild to see a trans woman re-using transphobic talking points too. You should know better how nobody who says shit like that is "just stating".
@cisnistr I agree. I'm a cis lesbian and I don't at all get it either, but it's whatever. I don't care who's technically correct.
Queer people found exhibiting unconventional approaches to gender and sexuality. Riveting! ;)
We already get enough hate from the outside. For what add to it
@yonahgodah@sangredeemilia 100%. As a lesbian everyone is just so fucking timid nowadays. People are so afraid to be too much of something or to say the wrong thing. Sexual attraction is not immoral! I get they don't want to upset someone. But on my end, it's just not fun. I WANT to be flirted with
@sangredeemilia The self imposed purity culture that some sapphics maintain is the reason why a lot of us feel internalized shame over wanting to fuck women imo.
@KeriArya@canonically47 You're right, it's not an excuse. It's a reason. No way I'm gonna get a formal diagnosis when it can get used against me later on. For what? Just to pass arbitrary standards set by privileged gatekeepers like you? ;)
Treating the DSM as a sacred cow is the dangerous trend.
You dont realize how bad your trauma is until you talk about like surface level one of the mildest bad things to happen to you and people immediately want to kill that person
