You guys think it’s so progressive to call people TERFs and argue against sex based rights and tell us about the four witches they may have decided where actually female presenting men, when girls are being burned and trafficked every day now, for being born girls.

Modern estimates are that the total ratio of convicted witches by recorded sex is 75% women 25% men, for what it's worth "Oh it was only four people" is kind of gratuitously shitty if you're actually pretending to care about a historical injustice

No, I don't usually worry about that when stating facts

I'm certainly not arguing that men as a class were oppressed by witch trials or that it was a burden specifically born by men as men Quite the opposite

You don't need to understand trans women to hate them, in fact it helps if you don't You just need to believe that, men being superior to women, a "man trying to pretend to be a woman" is contemptible and perverse, reflecting some great failure of character

Which was an extremely common and normative belief within patriarchy and is one that TERFs transparently share The idea that a member of the stronger sex disguising themselves as a member of the weaker must be playing some kind of cheat, a deception or sick prank

The *asymmetry* with which transphobes generally view trans people is instructive here, whether or not the transphobe in question identifies as a conservative Christian or radical feminist Pity and condescending concern for trans men, revulsion and contempt for trans women

Because, well, they think men are superior to women A trans man is like a peasant trying to dress up as a noble to steal a seat at the feast, a trans woman is like a noble slumming it as a peasant as some kind of sick game
