i absolutely loathe the continued mainstreaming framing of transness as something you identify as vs something you are it's been an absolute fucking disaster politically and you can't change my mind lol

it is of course transphobic bigotry but it should be pointed out that the lie “people need the right healthcare for their biological sex” kills trans people. trans women get breast cancer at far higher rates than cis men. trans men get prostate cancer. hrt changes your sex.

this is abusive by the way. when you do this, you are telling transfems they must make themselves smaller, more compliant, take up less space, not claim ANY epistemic legitimacy (i.e., never contradict you), in order to count as "not acting like MEN." it is a form of coercive control.
