@girldrawsghosts It's one of the reasons my brother and I are writing a novel together, and one of the two main characters is a trans guy.
We want more representation among authors and we want kids to grow up with fiction that reflects them and their lived experiences.

TERFs are upholding the very institutions and systems created to oppress them in the first place.
"single sex spaces" are rooted in a sexist Victorian ideology called "separate spheres" which believe that women's place is the home
@womenareppl @radpublica Ah yes, I'm a fetishist for being creeped out that your friend wants to have genital checks at bathrooms
Makes perfect sense.
Do you usually project this hard?
#gendercritical feminism is not feminism.
If your feminism excludes women, especially marginalized women, it's not feminism.
If your feminism considers some women a "traitor", it's not feminism.
Feminists should fight for the rights of all women, even ones they disagree with
@anarchocryptid@jessfromonline Exactly right, this is usually said to me when they've been backed into a corner
It's not even true either, millennials and gen z are to the left of earlier generations, and thats largely because we grew up seeing how broken the system is
Not immaturity

My fiancee is non-binary
And when we're married, they'll be my wife.
That's what they want to be called.
Non-binary people don't owe the world gender neutral language, they owe themselves whatever is most comfortable to them.
Period.
@radpublica @womenareppl I'm completely floored that you can't see the similarities with racial profiling policies like stop and frisk.
I'm sure you really would love to show your genitals to a cop every time you enter a bathroom
Fucking creep, I'm done wasting my time on your bad gender politics
@radpublica @womenareppl Take a second to think about it. This is the consequences of your ideology and the policies your pushing.
It doesn't have to be feminists doing it, the cops are doing what you told them to do
You told them to stop "men" from using women's bathroom, so they're going after "men"
@radpublica @womenareppl "a man is not a GNC women"
Im not talking about men
And I'm not talking about trans women
Maybe before you call someone a liar you should, try using google
@radpublica @womenareppl Here is a TERF labelling 3 cis women men because they don't "look like women" according to her standards of what women look like.
They aren't men, they aren't trans women, they are cis women.
I don't understand why people act like queer identity labels are these rigid boxes
Just let people call themselves what they want, it doesn't hurt anyone
FIBs seem to have a strange idea that trans folk uphold gender roles
But then they'll say that trans women aren't being feminine enough
And they'll say that a trans guy in a dress isn't GNC.
It's almost as if they're projecting
@radpublica @womenareppl The only women who aren't negatively effected by gender critical feminism are the GC cis women
These things wouldn't happen if gender critical "feminists" actually concerned themselves with women's rights to self expression and autonomy.
Instead you've got to "catch the tranes"
@radpublica @womenareppl Oh no not feminism, that doesn't uphold gender norms, gender critical feminism does.
GNC cis women are being forced from women's spaces because gender critical feminists assume they're men
Athletic cis women are attacked because they "look like men"
@ephron_j No we weren't going around in circles, I was pointing out the obvious and profound hypocrisy of your "feminism" and you have no response. So you resort to implying I'm delusional and leaving.
You're a hack, try reading a book on intersectional feminism and learn a thing or two.
@ephron_j I see, lesbians who date people you don't agree with are "playing pretend"
Do you usually infantilize women like this?
You're so good at feminism.
