There's a clever little trick behind the outrage over "chestfeeding" as a suggested alternative (not replacement) to breastfeeding, and the reason it works is, once again, say it with me: TRANSMASCULINE INVISIBILITY.

this has been my experience also. folks tends to assume that if you're standing up for a group, you're part of said group (folks have told me I must hate white ppl bc I support BLM, fr ex.) I think they're maybe telling on themselves? They wouldn't do that so no one would?
I think another part of it- for the more TERFy, deeper in transphobes, is that they believe trans men transition to earn male privilege and therefore couldn't be facing any sort of discrimination or prejudice of our own.

Oh yeah, they hit that one hard, and there have been days I got to hear that from transphobes *and" from trans people.
It's not *super* fun like I would not recommend this experience if you're a cis woman trying to escape sexism - Show replies
