If "female socialization" is your shorthand for being treated like whipped dogs who never learn to act right, that is something that applies to queer kids pretty intensely!

Heck, call it "queer socialization". The universial experience of society attempting to beat us into the closet or the grave.

"Male socialization" is kind of meaningless, then, insofar as we *all* are taught that Boys Are Better Than Girls.

It *does* affect the respective behavior of boys and girls, who learn exactly what they're allowed to get away with, and how much, but people forgot how this affects queer kids.

Mothers who tell their daughters to care more about looking pretty than doing well at school are socialized patriarchal.

Teachers of all genders who help their girl students less than the boy students with math and science are socialized patriarchal.

We are all marinated in this bullshit together.

Socialization theory has been so utterly mangled that people don't fundamentally understanding it's not Girl or Boy Programming, it's absorbing the dominant cultural values we grow up with.

If you grow up in a patriarchal society, you are socialized patriarchal.
My spicy socialization take is that we mostly use the phrase "female socialization" to refer to raising someone to be a people-pleaser so they don't get hit, and as people constantly at risk of getting hit, trans femmes receive it as much as anyone else
“Male Socialization” of trans femmes isn’t a real thing. Invoking it just shows you’re a bozo trying to misgender us.

Trans people were never really socialized as our AGAB. At best, we were pressured to mimic norms that gave us dysphoria.

It’s an obvious TERF / Blanchardist dog whistle. Do better.

i guess i'm not surprised given how gleefully reactionaries and MRAs call "describing patriarchal society" as "gender essentialism"

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

One of the reasons why it irks me when people refer to gender violence as “interpersonal violence.” It’s intimate, sure, but gender violence is in fact very *impersonal*—it’s specifically about stripping women of their personal qualities and dignity in order to reduce them to their gendered status.
Important to understand that sexual violence is political violence, enacted specifically to enforce class, race, and, yes, gender hierarchies.
I sometimes feel like they don’t want to end poverty or reduce inequality because they believe they’re entitled to a class of people they can prey upon

A lot of the (often quite powerful!) guys emailing Epstein were asking him for dating advice, which seems to suggest that they saw his own sex life as aspirational.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Childbearing is physically dangerous & painful for women; childrearing is an exhausting, degraded, isolating, and impoverishing endeavor that annihilates women’s other opportunities & goals. When women are free, they choose fewer children. There is no way to make them have more that is not violent.

The stuff Jeffrey Epstein’s friends felt comfortable saying and drawing in grotesque detail with their names attached knowing they would not face consequences is the kind of thing I think of when I think about rape culture and how sexual violence against girls and young women is actually glorified

A non-Western culture cannot be a complex society with its own castes, classes, conflicts, and contradictions. It has to be enlightened, simpler, happier, more primitive but all the more wise and enriching for it.

Y'know, orientalism.

That's all Westerners can do. Orientalism or xenophobia.

If you talk about misogyny in a non-Western culture, you are immediately assumed to be dismissing that culture as evil and barbaric, worthy of being nuked from orbit. This runs the high risk of you being called racist!

So, in order to prevent this, Westerners ignore any issues completely.

Brianna Ghey was not murdered in cold blood by a phone. Or a social media app. She was murdered in cold blood with knives plunged into her 28 times by two 15-year-olds fed a constant stream of hate and dehumanization by UK corporate media and the UK government.
Two teenagers were radicalized by the transphobic political climate into seeing a 15 year old girl as less than human. They killed the girl, and then the girl's grieving mother chose to embark on a moral panic crusade against "self-harm", acquitting the actual perpetrators of her daughter's demise.

Saw an article that described this reputation protection pageantry as "ruthless" on Charles' part & lost a contact rolling my eyes. This is why men rarely face any meaningful repercussions. When the slightest inconvenience is seen as "ruthless" it's deemed sufficient justice, if not "too far."
