ok can we just end the trans women getting uterus transplants discourse? if uterus transplants ever become possible, do ya’ll not understand how organ donorship works? organ donorship is extremely rare, there are lists and i don’t think identity validation is a good enough reason to get on one of them, especially considering trans women do not have the physical capabilities to ever give birth, even if some hack dropped a uterus in them jesus christ
the fact that these people think they deserve a uterus transplant as much as infertile women or women who’ve lost their wombs to cancer or endometriosis or cysts, a uterus that they’ll never fuckin use, so they can “feel” more like a woman…..holy shit, just accept you’ll never be a female
It’s actually quite revolting and shows you just how entitled men really are.
At this point, it doesn’t even feel like they want them to “~*feel like women*~” anymore. It feels like the only reason they want a uterus is to prove that they can. To shove it in ~*those terf bitches’*~ faces. Because they’re men and can’t handle being told no or getting proven wrong about anything.
NO. I am a woman and DESERVE a uterus.
I swear, every fucking trans male on this website is so ridiculously and violently misogynistic it hurts.
If your movement is easily swallowed and embraced by the masses, that’s because it’s not changing or challenging anything.
Trans activism, anti feminism, egalitarianism – all of these uphold the status quo. They don’t change a single thing. They don’t challenge anyone to think differently. They keep things static, as they are.
Change is hated. People want normalcy. They want to plug their ears and keep to themselves. If your movement isn’t hated, you’re not doing it right.
Men use it all the time when cornered. The yelling and abusive tone are tells.
You put horrible men into positions of authority and they selfishly break the system.
DARVO refers to a reaction perpetrators of wrong doing, particularly sexual offenders, may display in response to being held accountable for their behavior. DARVO stands for “Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender.”
Men learn all they have to do is cry like little boys to be absolved of anything. They pretend men being brought to tears is a big deal because they’re normally so stoic when really most of them will do it at a drop of a hat to manipulate women and spur other men into defending them.
god I just saw someone on Twitter propose that it should be GB instead of LGB because, in their words, you’re either straight, gay, or bi. I get where they’re coming from but it’s really not fair or accurate to put male homosexuality and female homosexuality in the same category on like a sociological level because we really don’t share a cultural or historical background. the lesbian experience is inexorably linked with women’s history and misogyny through the ages and to try to blur the lines that distinguish lesbians from gay men isn’t progressive, it’s practically historical revisionism
really disappointing to read bell hooks’ essay in this anthology, “challenging patriarchy means challenging men to change” devolve into an attack on radical feminism in general, especially relying on the notion that radical feminism is simply “rooted in essentialist rage” that promotes the self-victimization of women and their status as “innocent victims”. it’s especially crushing, though, to see her position lesbians (and presumably bi women) as privileged because of their “sexual preferences that position them where they have options”. this anthology was published in 1991.
You should read “Separatism is Not a Luxury” by C. Maria, an Afra-Latina lesbian separatist. She refutes hooks’ apologism for male sexual violence and assertion that radical and lesbian separatism are for “privileged groups of women.” The entire essay addresses liberal and socialist feminists’ arguments for why women aren’t allowed to separate from our oppressors. She ends with a proposal – a list of actions that radical and lesbian separatists can take to directly challenge capitalism and patriarchy (actions that male-apologist feminists are unlikely to do).
An excerpt:
Most women could care less about separatism. This purposeful ignorance not only comes from non-feminists and anti-feminists, but also from feminists who should know better, yet choose to ignore separatism even as a possibility. Some of this ignorance is caused by the fear of male reprisals. But fear alone has not stopped many Lesbians and Radical Feminists from envisioning a world free from male oppression and violence. So what else is behind this ignorance?
The only way to account for this dismissal is the belief among liberal and socialist/left-wing heterosexual and lesbian feminists that some men, particularly poor men and ethnically different men, are more oppressed than women in general. They say these men do not benefit from the sexual oppression of women. bell hooks even goes as far as to justify male sexual crimes committed against women and to argue that men are the real victims:
“Alienated, frustrated, pissed off, he may attack, abuse, and oppress any individual woman or women, but he is not reaping the benefits from his support of sexist ideology. When he beats or rapes women, he is not exercising privilege or reaping any positive rewards; he may feel satisfied in exercising the only form of domination allowed him”
In fact, physical and sexual abuse that come from male heterosexual privilege are so pervasive and oppressive, that less privileged and LEAST privileged women often DO become Lesbian Separatists.
Those who see Lesbian Separatism as classist and racist deny the lives of Lesbian Separatists, most of whom are not privileged. For example, hooks sees separatism as purely a class issue.
“Most women do not have the economic freedom to separate from men because of economic interdependence. The separatist notion that women could resist sexism by withdrawing contact with men reflects a bourgeois class perspective.”
hooks assumes all Separatists are white and privileged. But if Separatism derived from a “bourgeois class perspective,” most of the more privileged lesbians would be Separatists, or at least give separatism some serious consideration. And there would be few racially and ethnically different Separatists or less privileged Separatists.
Yet Separatism IS an economic issue. Lesbian Separatists are painfully aware it is racist heteropatriarchy that keeps women poor.
…
Many feminists do not want to acknowledge how comfortable they have become with their heterosexual privilege within the oppressive system that many other women want to leave behind. They continue to ask for a few privileges for themselves, while conditions for most women remain unchanged. Few feminists any longer propose the abolition of racist heteropatriarchy, because to do so they would have to confront their own complicity and the painful subordination men have forced upon women through terrorism, indoctrination, deprivation, and lies.
We can start, even in modest ways, to disrupt the male economy. Lesbian Separatists and Radical feminists have already begun, by refusing to be with men, or to cater to their needs, desires, and whims in our personal/political lives. Although heterosexual women can also contribute to this disruption, through sabotage, it is unlikely they will place themselves and other women above male priorities. Lesbian Separatists can do much more […]
i saw an angry post talking about how if im against trans women getting uterus implants, i should unfollow them. clearly, i did, because i don’t need that kind of idiocy on my dash.
what in the world does a male need with a uterus? it doesn’t do shit to you, stop getting pissed when some women don’t want you to have them. it’s a waste of vital organs. you aren’t allowed to steal this from us too.
Lots women want their own baby. Uterus implants wouldn’t just be helping trans women, but some cis women as well.
my point is that it doesn’t do shit to trans women. men can’t give birth, a uterus is literally useless to them
Images to help:
It literally would not fit in a man. Note the sacrum, the middle part.
The sacrum would be in the way, meaning the uterus wouldn’t fit… but that would be the least pressing issue. Organ rejection would be unavoidable, for example. Since the organ isn’t supposed to ever be there, even a perfect donor organ would be dangerous, if not deadly as the immune system attacked it.
Also, woman’s organs are able to literally MOVE, to make room for the developing fetus. Practically ALL of the surrounding organs move!
Again, there is NO ROOM to move the organs in a male. A male is not able to carry a fetus. Obviously there are more reasons, but this should be sufficient to let you understand that a man cannot ever give birth.
I don’t get how ppl don’t understand this. I’m worried for the future. Men do not understand our bodies, they see the rest of our bodies as unnecessary. That should worry and frighten us. And it does.
Mary Shelley wrote a whole fucking novel about why men shouldn’t be entrusted with attempting to create life through science.
Even in the women the uterus transplants have been “successful” in, they have to be removed after the birth, so that’s three risky situations (first the transplant, then the pregnancy and birth, then the removal) even for a biological female whose body would have the capacity to do all that. Not worth it, in my opinion, unless they find a way where they don’t have to remove it after. There is no way it could work for a male. He would die. And probably not quickly either.
Men don’t actually want to be pregnant, it’s a fetish.
Also goes to show how fucking little they get of basic biology- A uterus isn’t an easy bake oven, there’s more to reproduction than jamming one in there. A male brain isn’t going to make the hormones etc that are necessary. There’s only so much fake shit they can pump into themselves
Good Lord what have we come to. Do people bother doing any research before they start all that caterwauling? Just goes to show how little they know about women.
Look at all the self hating handmaidens in the notes “I hate my uterus, I’ll give it to the transwomen I worship!”
It literally won’t fucking do ANYTHING. Not only will you be unnecessarily removing a functioning, healthy organ because of your self hatred and desperation to be something you’re not, but it can’t even function in your precious twanzwimmens bodies.
Anyone else think this looks more like a gendershit ?
Men have been trying to discredit feminists by saying we’re all mentally ill and just taking our daddy issues out on the world for decades now when are y’all gonna get some new insults?
> claims that feminists aren’t mentally-ill
> is an admitted schizophrenic lesbian
oh shit you found out my secret
This dude is like if Eric Cartman came to life and made a tumblr.
I’ve been waiting for the day when someone decided to put their detective skills to use and out me as a schizo lmao

I’m sorry but can someone explain what in the literal fuck this means??
Trans women are male, so the closest they can get to actual women are appropriations of our appearances and dress. It’s that simple.
Listen. There is no way to dress like a woman. There’s no way to act like a woman. There’s no way to talk like a woman. Those are called gender roles and we don’t need to be enforcing those please.
Yes, you’re correct in that gender roles don’t need to be enforced. However, trans women try to use these gender roles to their advantage most of the time, and even “butch” trans women (gender-conforming straight men) will define “woman” as being something you can put on as a label. There are also numerous accounts where trans women have equated gender-based stereotypes to “being a woman”, such as “tits and makeup = woman!”, so you really can’t just handwave this just because it was posted by a woman who knows better than to pretend men are women.
You are still ignoring the fact that there is no way to speak, dress, and walk like an “actual woman”. Come on, you know this is bullshit, stop defending this just because they also hate trans people.
Except there is, and it’s a combination of our physical structure and our socialization from even before birth (you know, the socialization that makes our parents squeeze us into uncomfortable clothes, force us to be quiet when there’s a male in the room, etc). The same applies in reverse, because males have different physical structure and socialization from females. You’re just being obtuse on purpose just because you want to pretend there’s no basis in reality for why women can clock a trans woman as being male.
If women don’t act like quiet meek creatures, they must not actually be women, thanks radical feminism
That’s not what I said, quit making stuff up just because we’re pointing out that you’re interpreting our words incorrectly. We are socialized a certain way, and males try to appropriate the results of this socialization — to defy that socialization is radical, that’s why people look down on GNC women and try to create narratives that squeeze them back into the gender roles that are applied to their sex.
If theres no way to look, act, or speak like a woman, then what exactly are trans women emulating?
the only way to do anything “like a woman” is to do it in a female body. Which trans women don’t have.
^^^ fucking exactly. however i dress is “dressing like a woman” because I’m a female. i could wear clothes all from the men’s department and still be dressing like a woman. males can only ever imitate and delude themselves into thinking it’s the real thing. that’s why they become so enraged when the illusion is broken. their envy comes boiling back to the surface and they lash out at the targets of that envy.
