brb, gonna go spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to both impregnate and then abort a couple of dozen kids
The surrogate made the mistake of signing a contract to deliver on spec
when you don’t hire a bene gesserit
Am I just thinking of the movie Gattaca or aren’t you capable of picking from viable embryos for ones that have an Y chromosome for that kind of money?
Yeah, you can determine the child’s biological sex with IVF
But that would mean I don’t get to abort my non-trans babies
Sex selective IVF isn’t legal in a lot of places
In retrospect, the “Buy ten abortions, get one gender reassignment surgery free” deal was not good value.

Something I heard Hasan say the other day. Being trans isn’t a mental illness, being anti-trans is a mental illness. Because once you actually start looking into gender and realise its a social construct, you subconsciously start transvestigating people all around you and assuming they are trans (for actions/thoughts/feelings that are normal for heteros)
Horribly paraphrased of course
mental illnesses harm the affected people most of all. Not the case with transphobia except in some select regions
Yeah, I agree. The equivocation doesn’t really add anything to it, it just stuck with me. Thanks for pointing that out.
don’t worry

It’s hard to measure what he actually achieves for the worse, but being a divorced freak is still less bad than being violenced
like, going down the transphobia rabbithole harms them pretty bad. the social isolation from caring too much about a niche issue is real.
being a seen as a weirdo by the KKKlub is still not as bad as being on the receiving end of the Daily Sturmer Propaganda imo
ehh, the transvestigators are too obsessed with tracking all the ways in which every single cis person ever is actually trans to pose much of a danger to us. the politicians and klan types who aren’t obsessive scare me more. the ones who are incidentally transphobic wind up doing way more violence.
even unhinged nazis are still nazis and thinking they are legitimately ill is wrong, except if you count bullets as medicine
Narcissism and sociopathy can hurt others more
most of all, obv there are exceptions
Milo said something similar about TERFism in the UK. TEFFism will take over your entire life, even if you’re otherwise a normal person.
“The madness rune of UK political tendencies”

i’m like a transvestigater but cool (i assume like 90% of the people i run into are trans but it’s just because i’m looking for people like me. and crucially i don’t do anything but feel good in the knowledge that i’m not alone)
Ah yes projecting. Imagine this, but swap “transing” for Christianity and infant baptism and declaring “hey, look at our new Christian boy! We’ve modified his genitals to our liking”. Conservatives wouldn’t even bat an eye.
I think that’s the heart of it though. On some psychological level rightwingers understand how fundamentally their entire culture is one of grooming and child abuse, I can’t count the number of harrowing tales I have heard from other trans people. So like when they project their fears onto the unknown it has to be even more psychotic than what they are already doing to their own kids. Just to clarify they think that the child physical, sexual, and emotional abuse their culture propagates is a good thing, and its bad when other people abuse their own kids for different ends. The evil usnt the abuse, its that tou arent abusing them right. The idea that someone might like not abuse a child is beyond their imagination.
I’m just starting to become aware of a lot of the abuse in my past too. Things that I used to think were normal that are not ok.
Okay but this is real. When I change my mind on having kids I’m going to treat it the same way I do when I breed pokemon for IVs/Natures/Shiny.
Hm this one has low atk, I’ll just turn it into candy

Sitting down and drawing the most normal cartoon ever
Poorly.
I know there’s a lot going on here but we shouldn’t ignore the fact somebody decided to try drawing a comic for the first time to express that opinion.
That’s how invisible trans men are to these bigots, zero conception that someone AFAB could be trans.
Do they still think the mother determines the gender of the child at random? Do they not understand how human reproduction works?
The liberals don’t want you to know this, but a baby’s gender can be manipulated by precise kegel exercises as it travels through the birth canal
That’s why I’m all fricked up, my mom got to her third childbirth and thought “you know what let’s just do all the weird shit as that dude slides out and see what happens”
Getting mad at a thing that has literally never happened. This has to be fake, which one of yall made this? And yet the psychotic abuse that my friends who grew up in conservative households is all too real. Ngl I am so glad my queer as grew up with super lib parents.
Cursed Loss, if such a thing could even exist
Shout out to the evil surrogate who gets paid for providing a service in panel 2.
omg the projection of the disregard for cis women like the right aren’t the 96’ 97’ Bulls of misogyny.
I really love hearing the “some people want to raise a trans kid” talking point because it’s the most nonsense idea I’ve ever heard. I’ve never heard someone actually say they want a trans kid or even talk weirdly to suggest they might. I think bigots got confused with white people adopting minorities and got carried away
You know what I really want for my child, them to live a life where half the country either actively or passively tries to kill them while the other half acts like that’s an acceptable difference of opinion.
The right is getting better at comedy and it’s making the left nervous
everyone involved in the making of that comic belongs in laogai
Huh? I am genuinely bewildered by this comic In any case, classic Twitter activities of making up a scenario just to beb angry about it
