I just got blocked by a typical Trans rights activist and he claimed that if I don’t see transmisogyny he can’t engage with me. Is this word a recent development or has it always been in circuit? What exactly does it mean as the name itself feels like it contradicts what misogyny actually stands for.
For the background this is what he said:
He: if policy is enacted that says that women's shelters may bar people they deem not "feminine" enough to pass as female, & black women are often seen as more masculine (as are fat women, & a lot of other women based on their body type & how far away it deviates from the thin cis white female ideal), then these policies which target trans women will also affect these other women whose femininity is denied.if you don't believe in transmisogyny or the oppression of trans women in the first place then i am not interested in engaging with you
Me: So what you’re saying is the collective black women are seen as male on a daily basis.Because that’s what you’re implying when you say this. This is not the reality for me or most black women.
He: cool, have a good night. i wish you better reading comprehension in the future & good luck into your education on this subject.
Me: And I wish you better luck on your racism because you are racist.
Edit: Sorry if this is badly worded right now, I’m just so heated. I’m tired of these sorry excuses for men peddling racism into wokeness. I’m officially deleting twitter.
