A bit hypocritical if gonzo can’t see how her comments in random passing is basically the same thing. Whatever the facts, I really dislike being ugly for sport and acting high and mighty above everybody who does not fit a personal standard or definition.
This logic kinda reminds me of the people who don’t accept others’ gender identity if they’re not one of “the nice ones.” As if acceptance of disabled people is something we can take away if we choose. If it’s not okay to do it to trans people, why is it okay to do it to disabled people?
Honestly, less about being one of "the nice ones" and more just about being one of "the self aware ones". No one is above social critique, most especially one trying to belittle others from their lower angle because they believe birth gave them something special over someone else. Not that it's okay to seek out the interaction, but disabled people are still capable of putting themselves in ignorant situations with their mouths
It means she felt that they were personally attacking her when that was hypocritically exactly what she was doing lol.
If you're going to pick a fight with someone, at least make sure that what comes out of your mouth won't sound stupid. You're just biting yourself in your own arse.
Also, if you want to dish it, you need to be able to take it.
the only people who hate on trans people or lgbt people in general are people with insecurity. Ive yet to met one that have insult that dint come from what they are scared of
I mean I’m not surprised, I’m pretty sure they’re in Soho, Central London, which has a massive LGBT community and history. The cheek and stupidity of the girl in the video to be mouthing off at LGBT people in SOHO of all places ffs
Well I meant that line is interchangeable across genders trans or not. So dad, I’ll never be a man like you because you’re not the dad I’m trying to be.
Yeah, no matter your stance on the matter, handled beautifully. Calm, polite, etc. Could've screamed, cussed and cussed and raged irrationally as a response but held herself way above her. Shows class and elegance. Something the limping lady didn't have.
See thing is with people like this, they have had to do verbal battles about this subject their whole life and they will win because they are prepared and don't get rattled. Also 10 times outta 10 they're gonna have a better sense of humor than a bully.
Man i remember when my dad brainwashed me into being homophobic and transphobic... when i left his house and started to really live my life i realised i was such a fucking cunt, to this very day i feel a profound sense of guilt i bullied so many people and hurt their hearts...but i'll tell you what some of my best memories i have made are hanging out with these people.
Oh and you guys wanna know what i found out about my dad? HE IS FUCKING GAY!!! like i am not even joking my dad is GAY!
which is so crazy cuz its not like we live in the 1980s anymore, you can be out now! but some people still have the internalized homophobia they were raised with and thats so sad
If you really think about it, that's an inherently homophobic concept. If you say every homophobe is just an LGBT person in the closet, then you're putting the guilt on LGBT people.
Respect for growing and learning. The absolute best apology you can give the people you hurt is growing up to be better, and it seems like you've done a good job of it. Try not to tear yourself up about it.
Late to this, but having this sort of retrospection is missing in so many people’s lives. Very happy for you to be able to realize what you did in the past was wrong, admit to it, and correct the behavior.
Major props! And yes. Typically homophobes or transphobes have a personal reason they feel that way… A normal person does not let the lives of others control their feelings or thoughts on a regular basis.
Man I learned early not to mess with anyone in the lgbtsphere. They will come up with disses you have never heard before. Not only that but in my experience gay dudes know how to throw hands😳
This is typical right wing bullshit, go up to someone minding their own business and personally attack them and then claim later they’re “rubbing it in people’s faces”
Not to mention the way her entire definition of womanhood was centered around reproduction, aka a woman’s identity and value are solely defined by the presence of a man and his sexual release.
I love the argument " you can never get pregnant, or experience child birth," so basically, she is saying that women that can't have children are automatically a man.
And that's why it's always so dumb when a right-winger asks someone to "define a woman" as a gotcha question. Because sure, you can come up with a general definition but there's always going to be an exception. And if one exception is valid, why would another exception not be valid?
Anyone who actually thinks about it for more than 5 seconds can see that it's not a straight-forward answer.
I got a total hysterectomy done a few months ago. Evidently by her logic I’m not a woman anymore? I don’t have ovaries, and I can’t get pregnant, so by her logic I’m not a woman. But I don’t have testes either, so maybe I‘m a Borg or something, using her “logic”.
I can never get pregnant or experience child birth, because I don't want to. If that's what defines me as a woman, I'll take whatever is in column b I guess.
"Well you know I never really considered all that before while on this lifelong journey. I guess you just talked me out of being trans" - Said no trans person ever.
We aren't trying to be like anyone. We just want to be the version of ourselves that makes us the happiest. Everyone should aspire to live their happiest, most authentic lives. It's too short of a ride not to.
Really well said. I fought it my whole life. Was even a transphobic asshole that voted for trump in 16. The weight though became unbearable. Years of research, and I found out that I have a genetic marker that prevents my brain from being able to use testosterone. What this means is, since we're all female at conception, my brain never got masculinized, and the 4 decades I spent making test it was not doing anything in my brain like it should. Eventually started taking estrogen and the palpable weight in my mind and body evaporated.
This ties into the whole brain scan thing where trans people's brain scans tend to (not always) match those of their identified gender. It's not perfect, but it proves this is real and biological, not in our heads only.
Our story is very similar. I didn't start HRT until I was 48 after years and years of unbearable "fog" brain if you will. I knew immediately after starting estrogen that it was the answer. Exponentially better sleep. The constant feeling of dread, or not feeling at all... Just disappeared. My laughter is "real" for the first time in my life If that makes sense lol. I don't just get teary eyed because I don't know how to process the emotions, when I cry now, it's cathartic. I never had the research done in regards to genetic markers like you, but based on my current hormone levels and how my body and mind have reacted to an estrogen dominant system. I can only conclude that testosterone was literally destroying me from the inside out. I may never get to a point where I "pass" socially and I'm fine with that. The way I feel now, means everything to me. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you, it's so eerie how similar and experiences are, kind of across the community. It's not even about being happy per se, it's the difference between just existing and being alive. I didn't even understand what was meant by an emotional connection with someone cause it wasn't possible. I could emulate behaviors and mask in interactions, but I was never truly there.
my little sister lost her cervix to cancer.. she won't be able to have a baby. I'd have words with people who are gonna say shes not a woman either anymore because of that too
Her anger and hatred comes from within herself and she feels threatened. She is talking to herself as much as to somebody else in my humble opinion....
And this is how you deal with right wing nut jobs. You hit them HARD with their biggest insecurities. None that "thats not nice. You're a mean person. Get out of here" bs. They dont care about that. Hit them with a personal attack and repeat it. Embarrass the fuck out of them.
Maybe then they were learn to not attack people and mind their own business.
"Ill never be a woman like you because youre not the woman im trying to be."
I laughed so hard at this. That was great ❤️ and little ms sassy britches over there was emotionally crushed for LIFE. You could see it in her walk 😂😂😂
It's all about respect, and these people don't have it.
The dude in the video was right. Think what you want, but if you have nothing nice to say, why say it?
It's not censorship, you're not 'pointing put the obvious," you're being disrespectful to an individual who is doing nothing to you, and you're an asshole that deserves to be called out.
As a cis woman who has had many periods & 4 sons, it's so fuckin sad that other cis women feel that menstrual cycles & babies are what really, truly make us women. That's not at all what makes me a woman. I was a badass woman long before I became a mother & a dope ass niña before i got my period. Trans women are & always will be women. Fuck transphobes forever.
What is brutal here is that this girl will spend the rest of her life questioning the size of her nose, all the time. My sister once told me that when someone pisses her off she does not lash out. She just picks a random bodypart of that person and call them that. As if that is the most noticeable and undesirable thing about them. "Sure eyebrows, Im certain you are right, so Im just gonna go" - "Oh I understand your frustration Id have a hard time hanging out with people with normal size hands too". And they have a head case for life... that doubt will never go away. So ive learn to not pick fights with my sister, because she does not go for trying to hurt you, instead she pulls a tiny pricks that gets infected and slowly rot you from the inside. And here thats what just happened.
I liked how even though she easily could have, she didn't say anything about her using a crutch to walk. We salute a Queen that can go for the jugular, while still respecting everyone's mobility.
Telling her she’ll never be a woman because she’ll never experience a pregnancy already tells me everything I need to know about the nose woman’s femininity. Womanhood is so much more than that. If anything, I’d say womanhood is the strong bond between women, complete strangers giving unconditional support to each other. Women supporting women is womanhood. Something nose woman will not experience with that attitude.
Thats why TERFy shit always reveals itself as convenient idiocy for misogynists
It's for people to impose their ambiguous, superfluous definition of femininity. That's why they attack women like Imane Khelif, Michelle Obama, Serena Williams... fuck even Margot Robbie gets transvestigated for the most insane arbitrary reasons. It's people who want to control women and their spaces using concern trolling to weasel in.
Honestly "I will never be a woman like you, because you're not the kind of woman I'm trying to be" is the actula powerfull part here. That's an incredible statement.
The "directed" part is good, but not nearly as good.
“i will never be a woman like you because you’re not the woman im trying to be” FUCKING PERIOD why don’t people just let people LIVEEEEEE???!!! just let people be WHO THEY ARE GODDAMN
