I wish Buck Angel wasn’t the closest thing we had to a famous trans guy. I also wish that trans women supported trans men they liked as vociferously as they denounced the assholes.

Next time you want to place blanket blame on trans women as a class, I urge you to read this first and reconsider. So many of us support trans men daily, and we don't deserve to be constantly treated as suspicious interlopers.https://web.archive.org/web/20150312034015/http://www.keepyourbridgesburning.com/2013/09/we-see-through-you-18/ …

So what you're trying to say is... not all trans women?

You are drawing an analogy that doesn't work, because the point of the original "not all men" is that men hold structural, institutional power over women. Trans women, as a class, do not hold this power over trans men, and implying that we do is fucked up and offensive.

You also clearly didn't even fucking bother reading the link i shared. It's written by a hugely respected feminist punk trans woman writer, and i shared it in good faith as an attempt to illustrate what was wrong with what you said.

And yes, you're also implying by this tweet that trans women hold the same place in the patriarchy as cis men do. This is what both TERFs and transmisogynist people, some of whom are trans, use to justify demonising us. Some solidarity. Get right tae fuck

Nope, not implying that, thanks for the derailing though!
