Periods are stupid I’m gay I know I’m not pregnant can you not
******this post wasn’t meant to be transphobic or cissexist or offend anyone i apologize i was 15 when i made this post i’ve matured now i can’t stop people from reblogging it i’ve addressed this before but illl do it again because people still bring it up - i’m sorry again if i offended anyone i’m literally the most open and loving person ever id never purposely say something to single anyone out or hurt them******
It’s okay I just notice people tend to ignore trans experiences
Good job. You and people like you have successfully silenced another woman. Happy?
Why does she even need to include trans experiences if she’s not even trans?
TERFs are cartoon villains. Also clearly OP is not a TERF and agreed with those correcting her now that she is older and wiser so probably don’t put words in her mouth by using her post as a platform to be a bigot?
Side note to radfems: If you see a trans person correcting one of my posts and you think misgendering that person would in any way improve my life as a cis woman, I sincerely hope someone dumps the contents of a music festival porta-john on your bed. We are not on the same team. Your “contribution” is not needed.
Correcting her on what? She made a joke about herself. It has nothing to do with trans people and it doesn’t have to because it’s a joke about herself. Women can’t joke about their own anatomy now without having to be “corrected”? Fuck that and honestly, fuck anyone who gave that girl a hard time.
Um because she used “gay” as shorthand for “not exposed to penises”. And she came back and was like “Hey I understand now what this meant and I’m not out to hurt anyone’s feelings”. She says doesn’t want to be transphobic or cissexist. There could be something to say here about being gentle to minors who say problematic things, but this post wasn’t even supposed to be a place for TERFs to shout down trans women.
Then a bunch of TERFs decided that instead of respecting the OP’s efforts to be trans inclusive after the fact, they would double down and use the post to be transphobic. I have nothing critical to say about OP because she listened and respected the trans women who spoke up and doesn’t want people to assume she still stands by her wording. TERFs using her post to reinforce their own agenda, even though she doesn’t seem to agree is what is gross.
People can make jokes about themselves and still perpetuate harmful stuff. I could be like “lol I’m such a slut my vagina is so loose” and I would hope to god someone would correct me instead of being like “Oh that’s between her and herself never mind that it is directly related to AFAB oppression and misinformation about vaginas”.
Also, I can talk about my body, period, and sexuality ALL DAY without implying that only women have a periods or that you have to have ovaries to be a gay girl and it’s not even difficult. I don’t know why TERFs always act like it is sooooo limiting when it’s literally not even different day to day once you understand gender vs. genitalia. Once you understand how gender works (OP says she did not at the time) it’s like 0 extra work to be respectful of trans people.
She said she was gay because…get this…she’s gay. She talked about her period because she has periods.
“Shorthand”. Lmfao. No, that’s called “reaching”.
The only thing she said was, “ Periods are stupid I’m gay I know I’m not pregnant can you not” And you’re actually defending the people that went after her for this? Are you insane, or just brainwashed?
I cannot even believe you claimed she was “perpetuating harmful stuff,” because she made a joke about her own damn sexuality and body. She doesn’t need to be “trans-inclusive” when she talks about her own body and sexuality because she is talking about herself. She doesn’t owe anyone a damned thing and it’s so hilarious that you actually think she did something wrong.
Your mind is so unbelievably twisted that you are literally seeing something that is not there. You’re coming up with your own irrational interpretations about what people mean with nothing to back it up but a girl’s personal post about her being gay and having periods. That’s it. That’s literally what you’re bitching about and it’s so laughable, it’s sad. I can’t even take you seriously, you are so ridiculous.
Sorry, but I’m not obligated to present a full disclaimer every time I talk about my own body and my own sexuality and neither is anyone else. If you want to do that, be my guest, but tbh, that’s just pathetic.
There’s a reason why the rest of the internet thinks we’re snowflakes. It’s because of this kind of shit right here.
There are posts daily on this site calling trans lesbians predatory straight men. If you can't understand why erasing the fact that gay girls can get pregnant by each other is part of that then...idk I'm done helping you.
