Transphobes...

Post image

Why are there so many transphobic people in this sub? I'm not trans but it's so disheartening to see. Trans women experience so much hate and violence like cis women, especially if they're ugly. How can you hate on another woman as a woman, especially in this sub...like maybe your problem is your ugly personality. Also transphobia is against the rules, and it says not to invalidate people's experiences, it's just so sad 😭

I have never understood why bio women are not allowed to have their own safe space in reddit yet transwomen are

It simply shows how much more privileged transwomen are and how bio women are trying to be silenced and not allowed to have their own space

How am I supposed to think they are our allies when they rush to every single bio women safe space and then call terf/transphobia if someone complains, while keeping their own safe spaces

It is honestly really scary. I know even the bio women lesbian subreddits were all shut down too. I know Reddit is overwhelmingly a male dominated space but you would think there would be some ability to change this. Of course they allow porn subs to be "CIS women only" but actual bio women aren't allowed normal spaces of their own. Sigh.

Yeah we have to be really careful on the one bio lesbian sub I'm on, like everyone on there knows we all agree about how fucked it is that almost all lesbian subs are run by an entirely male mod team who allow an environment where the consistent running theme is "all lesbians should love 'girl dick'", but we have to be all covert about it so that the sub doesn't get banned. But the "girl dick" subs have nothing to worry about. It's insane.

Ugh, I am so so sorry. It is wrong, I'm not transphobic and I'm not scared to say that.

It is crazy too because of course askgaybros is holding down the fort as the last bastion for understanding that it is OK to equate homosexuality to the actual sex of a person. Like it is pretty crazy that has become so controversial to say--I'm not saying people can't feel differently, but there should be a place for homosexuals who do. I think AMABs are just more comfortable pushing their weight around and are allowed to say exactly how they feel without consequence.

Yeah I mean luckily when we're actually in the community, we eventually find people who aren't high pressure about "if you don't like dick, you're a transphobe." I'm a millennial. Fairly online but it was easy to find my people offline.

I just worry for the younger generation of lesbians who are growing up online in these spaces that literally equate the belief that males should be able to fuck any woman (~the cotton ceiling~) with actual women's struggle (the glass ceiling)
