Jake said:Heck, let me elaborate because this keeps coming up.
Earlier someone was visiting from out of town and really wanted to go to the beach with me. And I tried to explain the many reasons that couldn't happen. Part of that is I have some medical stuff going on where getting my skin wet is a no-go, but also, you know, I'm trans. I don't presently own a bathing suit. Finding one that fits me properly would be kind of a challenge, and even if I could, while it's been forever since anyone who looked at me thought I was a guy, it's hard to shake the feeling that if all I had on was something barely covering my genitals and boobs, some obvious tell would suddenly be visible, and then I'd have to deal with, you know, potentially being beaten to death by any bigots in the area. Odds are low but it's still a big risk.
Today I had another variation on the conversation, because hey, it's a real good form of exercise, and explaining things that far, was met with the suggestion, "oh, don't you have any friends with private pools?"
And no, no I freaking don't.
First of all the sort of people who tend to have private pools tend to be people who are pretty damn well off financially. We're already talking about people who have reached that unattainable for someone like me dream of actually owning a house, who also have said house somewhere where there's room to have a yard, and a fence around that yard, and enough money left over to install a damn pool, and keep it well maintained. Might as well ask if I have any friends who own their own islands. What the hell.
Part of why this is a ridiculous ask is that trans women don't ever have any money. We're women and people generally don't like to give women money, we tend to be single, so we don't have access to someone else's money, we're this really hated minority, so like, holding down any job at all is a really big ask, plus, you know, we kinda have quite a lot of really big medical expenses as a result of the whole being trans thing, and at some point in our lives this thing happens where we suddenly have to completely start from scratch on buying clothes and a bunch of other things like it's one of those games where you drop all your stuff on death and it crashed when we were running back to our corpses. You really don't appreciate how much of an investment that is to have to suddenly make all at once.
The other thing, and I don't think this gets talked about enough, is societal transphobia kinda rigs the game against us having friends at all Like, growing up, here I am, some little girl whose parents are really really deadset on wanting to have a little boy instead. The friends I naturally gravitated towards were other little girls my own age. That, to my parents, was a huge red flag and a stop had to be put to it.
No being friends with girls. And I'm not going to end up making friends with a bunch of boys instead, because, no matter how much people were in denial of it, I was a girl. I clearly had cooties. Boys had no interest being anywhere near me.
So, and I think this is pretty well a universal experience, I grew up with basically no friends at all, except maybe a couple weird kids who don't go in for the whole super gender segregated youth thing because look you can't be picky when you're trying to fill out a D&D group, and eventually I got the internet, so I had some nice relateable internet friends (who would... basically all eventually work out that they were also trans, funny how that works).
And then you know, years later, I did the whole thing of coming out and transitioning, and turns out when you do that, a non-zero number of the people in your life are going to IMMEDIATELY cease to be people in your life, or at the very least really distance themselves and maybe not be seen with you in public etc. either because it's taking them a bit to process things or they're low-key bigoted, or high-key, etc.
And then, you know, there's the bigots. The ones who uh, do their best to hunt down every trans woman on the planet, dox us, and harass the everloving hell out of anyone who is related to us, works with us, is friends with us, or acknowledges us as people, in a specific isolating effort.
And it's possible to make new friends past that of course but... honestly, making new friends as an adult is kind of a hard thing to do for anyone. Usually it's contingent on like, getting a new job, or joining a new club, or something like that, and again, discriminated minority here, plus the active stalker scene. And even if not for all that, there's the whole issue of being the age where you should generally have life pretty well figured out and yourself put together, but then you also went and started puberty all over so you're dealing with all that, probably lost your job/family/friends, none of your clothes fit, and you're constantly seeing doctors, so like, yeah. Not a whole lot of opportunities for someone to go "hey, you seem really cool, come by my house some time. I've got a nice new in-ground pool I want to show off, but I don't want to show it off by having a pool party or anything. I just want to invite over a single person, by herself, to swim around in it while I'm not even there, and in fact no one is there, and there's no cameras or anything. And what's weird about that? What, that I specified 'no cameras?' Look it's not fair to act like I'm the one making this weird when I already only exist as a hypothetical to show how people who just let random people swim around their pools without being there themselves aren't really a thing."
Jake said:Roundup of ridiculous transphobic crap I'm mostly refusing to give the time of day:
-There's a big effort going to try and claim a recently deceased author as transphobic despite a long vocal history and themes in his work to the contrary that's mainly focused on screaming at his surviving friends and family.
-Professional bigots are throwing temper tantrums because a professional board of psychologists took the time to put out a formal statement against lawmakers citing a completely fictitious medical condition said bigots made up and have been promoting which basically amounts to trans people being magical vampires who don't even have to bite you, just trick you into reading a blog post.
-There's a separate instance of bigots spewing out propaganda in support of the more or less equally ridiculous BS labels of one Ray Blanchard, whose belief, roughly, is that the only reason trans women exist is that we're all like, really cross-eyed, so when we go to look for a hot woman to bang we see a nearby mirror instead and thus need to turn ourselves into hot women instead. And somehow people take this seriously.
-Some other crank seems to be calling for "public education for would-be transitioners" about how "no one will ever love you" because they somehow missed the memo that actually being trans is one of those rare desirable sexy traits, so even the homeliest looking trans person is constantly having to fend off would-be suitors of all genders with a stick. And honestly it's weird that bigots wouldn't know that because they spend really concerning amounts of time doing "research" by watching/looking at trans porn and talking about their husbands being stolen.
-Pretty sure there's still a roving gang of nazis randomly stabbing people outside the one spa because some crank made up an obvious lie to incite violence, and someone else tried to do a copycat stunt by pointing out that like, wives have husbands stand by changing rooms to give feedback on outfits as they try them on. Presumably this fizzled because they... forgot to even tenuously make a connection there to trans women. And also like, this is something everyone in the world routinely experiences and has never had any problem with.
Anyway on a related note, it'd be really great if people would quit taking screenshots of tweets from stalkers of mine who I'm still in therapy over, because I in fact have them blocked specifically because I don't ever want to see another post from them as for as long as I live.

You don't have to wear a string bikini, Jake. There's other women's bathing suits available for obese fatties like yourself.Violet Cassandra Ocean on bathing suits said:Finding one that fits me properly would be kind of a challenge, and even if I could, .... if all I had on was something barely covering my genitals and boobs, some obvious tell would suddenly be visible

Also the fat bastard is lying, as usual, because he reads all our posts. Hey Jake, eat shit!You don't have to wear a string bikini, Jake. There's other women's bathing suits available for obese fatties like yourself.

But he also claims that he's 6'3". I don't care if you are 36-24-36 (or 41-31-41 to keep it proportional) and have the face of an angel and in every other way look like a perfect woman. If you're 6'3" a significant portion of the population is going to assume that you're a man. Hell, even if you stripped buck-naked and had an obviously natural bobs and vagene 1 in 10 people will marvel at how convincing SRS is these days because that sort of height is so freakishly rare in women (some quick back-of-the-napkin math and a little Googling gives me a mean height of 64 inches with a standard deviation of 2.75 meaning 75 inches is 4 standard deviations which show that 0.003% of American women are that tall) and relatively normal in men (~2% of American men) that it's not even that unreasonable a guess.it's been forever since anyone who looked at me thought I was a guy
Except it's all pure white and un-laserable.You know his back is hairier than Ron Jeremy's. You just know it.
- Insistence that people, even young children, can "just tell" when someone's trans, well before the trans person comes out/transitions/is apparently aware of the fact themselves
This shit right here, this is why I want him to do that podcast. This is what I want to hear him trying to riff with. I want to hear him criticising movies because they depict trans women as being capable of living as an adult. I want him to obliviously chuckle that all the autistic social retards he knows are now trans. I want to hear the awkwardness in the co-hosts’ voices as they will him to please shut the fuck up you moron, you’re throwing us all under the bus and make a mental note never to do this again.What started of as a simple, generic troon tweet eventually evolved into a full googleshng.

I actually just took up watching The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on Shudder recently, where a Texan hosts showings of horror movies that aren't always outright horror(like Heathers or Day of the Beast) and it turns out this kind of content is still fresh to a lot of people. Nobody wants to watch Jake watch movies but a handful of us, but he's accidentally got his pulse on something relatively current. The difference is Joe Bob Briggs is somewhat charismatic and drops great movie trivia during the breaks while also briefly remote interviewing industry folks like Roger Corman & Clint Howard for their insight. Nobody wants to hear unfunny trannies riffing subtle video game references to each other, or it would have already existed on YouTube for half a decade.Who doesn't want to watch an MST3K rip-off helmed by a fat dude in a bad wig and a dress, filling in 99% of the run time with Googleshngs about lesbian rape gangs and secret Nazis?
Well that's a statement with at least three contextual falsehoodsWe're women and people generally don't like to give women money...

I had a friend recently say she was having a bad day, so to cheer her up she asked her friends to tell them something good about what they'd been up to so she could enjoy their happiness.View attachment 2408663

PAY ATTENTION TO ME OR I'LL NECK MYSELF! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Kids growing up without friends is sad, but the fact he so reflexively LITERALLY universalizes this experience is just so jake."So, and I think this is pretty well a universal experience, I grew up with basically no friends at all"
