I once matched with a woman on a dating site, and she was a TERF… who was also a trans-woman.
I was dumbfounded. I was like, how in the world can you parse someone who’s that incongruous in their own thinking? She was straight up bigoted against herself.
I saved the whole conversation because it was absolutely wild and thought I would post it somewhere, but it seemed wrong… like, making fun of the mentally handicapped. 😕
Like, how? Did she not view herself as a real woman and use the men’s room?
Oh come on. Don’t tease us like that. I wanna see those mental gymnastics in action. Please share the conversation!
There might be hope for a Joe Sixpack who’s never actually met someone from the groups he’s been told to hate, but if a person is part of a marginalized group and supports those who suppress marginalized groups, they’re rotten to the core.
This is my mother exactly. (MtF trans)
Mega-conservative. Pushes groomer narrative bullshit.
I am so sorry for you. I hope she comes to her senses
Blair White?
Could be worse, it could be Caitlyn Jenner.

Misgendering and deadnaming Jenner on lemmy does absolutely nothing to her. But you know what it does do? It tells every trans person that reads this, that isn’t Jenner, that you’ll deadname them too if they don’t meet your standards. It tells them that your acceptance of trans people is only for the ones you like, and is entirely conditional. It tells them that you are only humouring them.
And that’s why the mod removed my comment.
You’re correct. Caitlyn is a shitty person but that’s no reason for me to be a shitty person. I apologize.
Just because she’s a shit human being doesn’t mean she should be misgendered. I’m certainly not following anything Trump says regarding proper gender identification, whether I hate the person or not. And no, I don’t feel terrible for her in particular in the slightest.
You’re right, Caitlyn it is. She’s a shitty person but a person nonetheless.
Met 2 of them once. They call themselves “gender critical”.
Which is a funny choice of name, since they’re probably the least critical people in existence. Oh wow, sex and gender work exactly how you learned in kindergarten and also the concept of sex and gender in the religious and political environment you grew up in just happened to perfectly reflect reality? Damn that’s crazy, very critical of you to notice that.
