       @yishengqingwa666   “Women speaking out against male harrassment, and men harassing women is the same garbage fire!!!”   Those tifs are peaking. PEAKING I tell you... Everytime I see this exact same scenario, where it becomes so obvious that it doesn’t matter what you call yourself you’re still a product of your sex (even to these so called “non conformers”)  it was the same thing that peaked me.  Male violence from these “women,”   male perversion from these “femmes,”   and all the while the true women and girls are told to shut up, take it in silence, and never speak out against your sacred “trans wimmans”.     Peak, peak, peak. I for one welcome more Spinster users and detransitioner voices!

       @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 Someone go there and dm them https://newthoughtcrime.com/Say it explains concerning dynamics in the trans community or something. This document helped me right when I was questioning things and some tras were trying to convince me that I was non-binary. Completely peaked me.

       @Hollahollara @Jar @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 No, drink tea. It’s delicious while hot Here’s the original thread with a wordy meme and even wordier manifesto in the comments. This led to passive aggressive callout posts by TiFs and TiMs that spilled out into other trans subshttps://www.reddit.com/r/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns/comments/qxhmta/my_open_letter_to_traaa_addressing_the_ugly

       @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 lol fuck tims helped tif teenage me peak for the exact reason. I kept getting pissed off that the "girls" just acted like the weirdo loser kid in class who likes furries a bit too much and the fact that the "guys" still just acted like the non t girls I knew in school. It was all too fucking blatant that the scrotes were perverts and the girls were trying to run from something.

       @Hollahollara @Jar @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 i know this post can be taken as incendiary, and for those who have done a little digging, you might notice this is a burner account. i do not feel comfortable posting this on an account i typically post on this sub from, because i don’t particularly want to be banned for this. regardless, enough is enough. i am breaking my silence, and i’ve brought with me staggering evidence.over the past few months, a vocal minority of transmasculine and nonbinary individuals, including myself, have noticed the staggering demographic disparity in this subreddit, and how it has started to damage transmasc and nonbinary people here. i am acting alone, but i wholeheartedly am reinforced in my belief that i am not the only one who believes these sentiments. what tipped me over the breaking point was a post made last night by u/WeAllFloatUpsideDown revealing that he had been receiving unsolicited DMs from transfeminine individuals requesting for his body parts, and additional comments on the post revealed that he was not the only one who had received this treatment. As this is harassment, i am pleading that you all stop and consider that this has gone too far.i understand that i have made several claims aside from this one, and i will now try to deconstruct them for you. i owe you a truthful, accurate and concise reconstruction, and i do so wanting to acknowledge that not only is this not an attack on the majority of folks who have refrained from acting in this way, but that i am also immensely grateful towards anyone who has helped to call out this behavior where it is seen. to you, i say this: your efforts make this sub a safer place for everyone. regarding that, i will now begin to pick apart r/traa’s issue with transmasc and nonbinary exclusionism.the root of this problem comes from two ugly places: the misconception that reddit is a primarily transfeminine space, and the outright misinformation about the transfeminine vs transmasculine experience. first off, reddit does not have a noticeable population bias towards trans women, but there is one in shared spaces. r/traaaaa has roughly 288,831 members at the time that i wrote this. judging outwardly, the assumption is that traa is majority transfem, and so the transfem and transmasc-specific spaces must reflect this, yes? this is untrue: r/mtf hosts 132,143 users and r/ftm hosts 130,283, less than a 2,000 user difference. r/nonbinary is even more crowded, hosting 140,202. r/traa is not predominantly transfem because of lack of population available; if it were, numbers would reflect this. so why are transmasc and nonbinary voices being drowned out?and drowned out they’re being. through memes that silently insinuate that the trans community is compromised solely of transfem culture, through disparaging comments of “can we trade”, “you’re goals” or even demanding we be grateful that we don’t go through x or y, or even by outright hating men and refusing to acknowledge how that impacts us, as u/TheToasterWaifu reflects. And it’s not as if we’re being silent either.The thing is, time and time again, when someone is doing something that they can’t see the consequences of, and someone else calls them out on the damage they’ve done, they don’t like it, and push back. White fragility is an excellent example of this, which also finds itself on this sub, but i’ll get to that later. People on this sub have posted memes publicly antagonizing us for speaking out against this behavior. And it is damaging: u/mfgoose notes in the linked comment that ”I think it’s because [non-transfems] see some posts that just say “hey ladies”… …and are confused and distraught cause they’re in a trans space. Then they see posts like this one which just makes them feel more excluded.” it is pushback like this that blames us for our own exclusion that is harmful, and it is backed up by misinformation that has persisted in trans literature for 20 years.

       @Hollahollara @Jar @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 this misinformation is the assumption that trans women have it worse and that transmasc and nonbinary invisibility is privilege. u/RoninandGeisha posted an excellent write-up deconstructing this myth on r/asktransgender. i’ve linked it, but for those who are disinterested in reading even more long posts, i’ll do my best to paraphrase.trans women do not “have it worse”. in fact, a study was done in 2011 by FORGE milwaukee about the statistics of discriminatory violence against trans individuals that revealed trans men were actually more susceptible to violence than trans women. (cw: this article discusses violence, abuse and SA. read at your own risk.) for those stats, paraphrased: ”Transgender women experience violent crime at the rate of 86.1 per 1,000 people, and transgender men experience it at a rate of 107.5 per 1,000.” this heavily conflicts with julia serano’s definition of transmisogyny, a definition we still hold to to this day, which notes that ”trans female/feminine individuals tend to bear the brunt of societal fascination, consternation, and demonization in considerations of transgender people.” u/RoninandGeisha continues to note that this false projection that transfem individuals have it staggeringly worse contributes not only to a lack of desperately needed resources for transmasc individuals but also the fact that we are ignored or even accused of having privilege, which is laughable. as a trans man, i was in much more danger out of the closet than in, and my perceived masculinity shatters once i am discovered. the fact of the matter is that ignoring the 2011 FORGE study is a fatal failure and has lead to r/traa and the greater trans community as a whole excluding and isolating transmasc and nonbinary people in favor of lauding an outdated presumption that we are in no need of a safe space. we are, and the study proves that.however, it doesn’t stop there. the startling lack of intersectional awareness in this space has also edged along other lines. users have called out racist and offensive sentiments spread towards trans people and cis people of color, and the responses have been less than stellar. additionally, the “i used to be a nazi/i almost was a nazi” sentiment spread further makes r/traaa a worrying place for people of color and religious minorities as they are faced with the very real assumption that other users treat such an idea flippantly instead of with the seriousness and accountability it deserves. i cannot speak for those hurt by this as i am not part of these unique groups, but i present what i have found to open the conversation and center their voices too, as they are also being excluded.so what does this accomplish, putting this forwards? i don’t know. honestly, i expect to have this account banned from the sub and this post removed. but if it isn’t, i can only ask that we work together as a community to make r/traaa and the trans community as a whole more inclusive for transmasc, nonbinary and transfem folks alike. we all deserve that much.

       @sunspot @Hollahollara @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 Damn that’s a really amazing essay. I hope the transmen realize that they don’t have a be treated this way. And I’m looking at sub and the response seems to be mostly be telling them to just be nice and stop stop talking stop talking about it stop talking about the problem. But it looks like they’re also continuing with calling out creepy behavior in meme format. #Transmen metoo moment? Really rare to see this? I’m happy for them.

       @Jar @sunspot @Hollahollara @yishengqingwa666   Hopefully it’ll lead to a greater understanding of this experience, that gender identity and ideology does not override the truth of reality.   Male violence and domination,  no matter what we identify as, we never escape it.

       @sunspot @Hollahollara @Jar @juneseed @yishengqingwa666 This is pretty much what we expected when men started to pretend to be women and vice versa. :ablobspin: There are no good answers to this except for everyone to go back to being who they were before the self-identifying and that ain't gonna happen.

       @juneseed @Hollahollara @sunspot @yishengqingwa666 Yes, transmen often are unable or afraid to have this discussion in the open, much like other females are. So it’s really incredible to see this being discussed to a wide audience. Either things will change for the better, or they will be met with rage and told to be quiet. Hopefully this will help a lot of them, even just with standing up for themselves, regardless of the outcome. Transmen are our sisters, they deal with the things all females/afab do, even if they reject femaleness, I’m supportive of them on this. Really cool to see this thanks.

       @sunspot @juneseed @Hollahollara @yishengqingwa666 Some screenshots of the various responses. It looks like they tried to mass report the transman’s post about harassment in the community but the mod kept it up, calls to just be nice, calls for more moderation against trolls, and “actually amab enbies have it worse”, and afabs saying for them to “stop telling us to be quiet”. Absolutely incredible.

       @yishengqingwa666 @Hollahollara @juneseed @sunspot They’re trying to describe what’s happening now as transmisandry. Trans-hatred of men. Or hatred of transmen I figure if they can at least try to describe what’s happening that’s a positive. They  aren’t allowed to use the word misogyny there.
