i need to write something more coherent eventually but in the interest of getting this out of my head so I can finish my work day: "transmisogyny exempt" is, i continue to contend, a fucking nonsense phrase that should have been retired years ago but now we have cis people using it to "defend" trans women against scaaaaary transmascs within a labyrinth of twitter grievances i will never be able to sort out. it has made me so angry and disappointed in so many people i thought knew better, and it is actively standing in the way of meaningful community building, all for the validation of the mean-girl transsexual class. stop flattening Whipping Girl and read another book
