Leftist dating advice: go on HRT it makes you hotter
I once went to an anarchist speed dating event. Not enough people showed up so we all just got really drunk in a basement instead. My friend took a bunch of the free condoms and later that night slept with my brother's housemate after we crashed his party with a load of anarchos. Does this count?
“The left needs to give men dating advice” is such a stupid and unserious take and I keep seeing it everywhere. it’s just another version of the “male loneliness epidemic” discourse

Bluntly, you all have been happily chirping about "white feminism" for a while now.

Well, as a brown woman, I'll tell you this to for free: The greatest predictor of a woman's capacity for collaborating with patriarchy is not her race.

It's her sexual orientation.

Boo me all you like, it's true.
Let's talk about these hetleresses' TERF socialization.

Trans women are biologically female and our medical needs make a lot more sense if we are conceptualized as having essentially an extreme form of hyperandrogenism
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Seeing some "the incoherence is the point" type of responses, and I want to make it clear it isn't really incoherent, you just have to think about the conservative worldview.

"Other cultures are barbarous, unenlightened, and coming to steal and subjugate Our Women, Our Nation's Womb, Our Property."
Sometimes the right wing propaganda cycle of a country will actually hit "immigrants want to take away women's rights" and "feminism has gone too far, women WANT to be tradwives" at the same time

Need to finally learn that "deprioritize exercise to lock in and finish the mentally strenuous project" doesn't work. In fact it's counter-productive

the fake sex/gender distinction among many other problems has created this hilarious situation where people implicitly talk about woman (female) and woman (male) like women are a kind of pokemon

a lot of trans women are not actually socialized male but socialized doormat and some of them when accused of male privilege will instantly go into their trained cPTSD response of fawning and being apologetic for existing and taking up a modicum of space.
this is, of course, all done for the purpose of beating trans women into submission and making us apologize for even existing.

To reiterate what I said about this in 2021, I will never apologize for who I am, and I shouldn't be fucking expected to.

Thinking about this article as I'm clawing out of a months-long USpol induced dissociative episode.

Everything I've written this spring hits like a hazy half-remembered nightmare in retrospect.
Transfemininity and Dissociative Identity Disorder: An Undertheorized Intersection
Femme alters in AMAB bodies are a common occurrence for those with Dissociative Identity Disorder. So why don’t transfeminine theorists talk about them?

US Supreme Court: "Trans women don't deserve discrimination protections."

UK Supreme Court: "Trans women aren't women, but they aren't completely men either. Quite frankly we're not even sure they're human beings."

Indian Supreme Court: "Trans women are women, which means they DON'T GET SHIT."

This isn't true, btw. Transphobes *do* remember trans men. But the approach is different: the transfem is the whipping girl to be burned at the stake, the transmasc is the renegade reproductive asset which must be returned to the rightful owner
"Transphobes forget that trans men exist" is one of those memes that stick around because the spaces that circulate the memes are pretty far removed from actively looking at how anti-trans movements operate these days, and it's setting expectations that lead to self-sabotaging rhetoric on our end.
