great comment
during Ricky Gervais flipout yesterday, several of the terfs kept 'returning to reality' & demanding the trannies show the actual 'harm' they keep complaining about.
harmed where & how?
some conservative reminded them that 1/3 of world still not online, so are all those ppl in indonesian slums transphobes for not using approved pronouns and the word 'cis'?
do they have activists in these slums explaining all of this? lol
another said Gervais not well known in USA, we watch the US "Office" not the UK's. if they do know who he is, not enough to make them hate somebody just because he says so.
these simple facts seem to upset them a lot, and i think its like you say: the trans POV looks good on paper/computer screen but most of the world does not live in "theory-land".
ppl go online to share pics, chat, score with girls/guys, make money or get a job, shop for boots or cars, look at cat/dog memes, check sports scores... and that's mostly it.
only a minority of over-thinkers (and autists like us) into all these arguments.
its weird to log off and then go to meetings IRL where I hear 'liberals' say "i'm all for trans rights, but these guys are stealing championships from high school girls, what to do?." in short, the liberals will be nice and call them Sylvia but in the end, they don't sincerely believe they are women, they are humoring them. just like if they had some off-brand crackpot religion, liberals tip-toe around the trannies the same way.
i think trannies know this and on some level, it drives them crazy. real life is like some computer program they can't access.
but can't erase.
I think "looking good on paper/computer" is a key component of a lot of the homophobia and accusations of "genital fetishism" that you see among young online troons. Yes, some of them really are just rapey incels hoping to actively manipulate people into sleeping with them. But I think a lot of them also can't conceive of physicality being important to a romantic relationship because all of their relationships have been online.
We have seen it here, a lot of these people have had multiple years-long "relationships" with people they've never met. For others, they have met and had sex with partners, but they have been so psychologically warped from years and years of excessive porn usage and troon fantasy that "sex" for them consists of dissociating and using the other person as a masturbation tool.
From deep inside that perspective, it does seem a bit petty if someone insists on a particular type of physical body and genitals. For them, sex and relationships are essentially a solitary act and the other person's genitals really don't matter, except to the extent that a trans person might be using those genitals to prove something about themselves (that they are a real lesbian or a real gay man).
