But at the end of the day, fetish or not, predatory or not, they're victims of a horrible medical scam.
That's what gets me. People can continue to cheer on trans people killing themselves and I won't stop them (I'm still waiting for some to do a flip myself) but there's too many victims out there who go bad because they fell into the scam rather than were inherently bad in the first place. The later are lolcows and would still be after detransitioning, the former will be broken men and women chewed up by predators and a predatory medical system.
Oh, believe me, I am under no delusions that this will be quick.
Don't worry, it didn't sound like it, I was saying that people might judge you to be faster than you mean. And will give your ass rainbows even if you say 10 years, they think it's the fucking empire.
but this kind of insanity cannot go on forever. It has to fall eventually.
Basically. Towers of broken logic fall when they have too many holes poked in them, and the trans lobby likely doesn't have the mental capacity to repair their reputation. Or worse, the people IN the trans community are knocking down parts faster from the inside than even businessmen in the medical industry can repair.
It's become prevalent transmed rhetoric to say "If you don't want bottom surgery, you don't have dysphoria, so you're not actually trans", which pooners hear as "You're just a silly little cis girl who won't be taken seriously if you don't get a rotdog".
The fact that so many fucking pooners care so goddamn much about what others think of them murders my own anxiety ridden heart. It's so gross, everyone being encouraged to always doublethink and doublecheck about how someone percieves you. It's not an easy mentality to get out of even without troonism and it certainly isn't helped by finding your "True Self" that's just an explosive reaction to others. That's the opposite of your true self, that's panic. I hate it so goddamn much.

I fear none of these women will grow out of it, or worse, won't have the opportunity to grow out of it. The melancholy of destroying your body drowns out other thoughts and it is even harder to recover from. The ones who do try to recover and speak out have my endless gratitude that they are trying to change themselves and prevent others from falling into the deathtrap, no matter what others think. It's hard, but usually, it shows progress.
The biggest obstacle to this will be older, post-op AGPs like Anne Lawrence because they're too fetish-addled to ever be helped in constructive ways and will constantly toe the line to keep the fetish LARP acceptable.
Eid Julia Serano, Eid!
I read his book and to this day I still want to beat people with it who agree with him. He's like ground zero for hating lesbians for not sucking the girl dick, autogyno isn't real, being pretentious and sniffing his own farts, and gibs me that transition without gAtEkEePiNg NOW NOW NOW.
- They're completely open about the medical risks of exogenous hormones, like elevated cancer risk.
- Pretty much never go for the butcher surgeries.
I'm glad there's a few out there who realize it. Sad that it came to that for them, but good job.
Wondered aloud if maybe I could sometimes be feminine enough that I'd think about going troon, and 2. Asked if he could suck my dick.
How did you respond? Did you cut him off immediately or call him out?
but it’s not the one they moan and cry about: it’s a genocide of autists
So in order to slow the potential rise of a severely disabled population, the “solution,” given our current era of PR and ethics, is to entice those who carry autism genes (i.e. functioning autists) into being child-free (see also: autistic redditors enamored by antinatalism) and/or sterilizing themselves, and this is especially easy to do so if you make this process something that can be fixated on by a hyper-focused mind.
I understand where you're coming from, but this implies a conscious plan from the top that isn't "mo' money mo' bitches". Medical company higher ups are greedy and love a stable long term medical population to bleed dry of insurance, LGBT organizations had to jump to a new issue to raise money for once LGB was given marriage, and fetishy men would have been this way with or without the LGBT support it seems like(they're just extra enabled now and look to assimilate). It's not a very successful program to delete autists since generally mentally ill people get swept up into it, not all autists fall for it and stay themselves, and AGPs are having kids THEN trooning out. Hell, women like ArchivistBeck are half assed troons raising babies too. There would be more emphasis on sterilization and punishments for stopping hormone therapy/never getting thr chop.
