  • this is the first time i hear about that “trans people are for pam people” thing.

    i know some ppl consider nombinary ppl to excluded from bi, but thats just ignorance or exclusionary bs, that is not even in line with the ethemology of the word.

    i personally simply vibe most with the pan label, because it is kinda seperate from gender, which fits my fuck gender mindest.


  • ofc its not a phobia to have preferences. my critique is towards excluding people from certain labels of gender based attraction, for things other than their gender. especially if those people are systemically opressed for their gender.

    crazy example now, but sometimes that helps seeing things in a new light:

    if i say that im not into old people because i am a lesbian, then thats kinda messed up, because it implies that old women are not women.

    does that help?

    and ofc, because we live in a cis-normative society, many people dont often think about how women can also have dicks. forgetting about that isnt necessairily transphobic but might also just be a cis-normative oopsy.




  • oki, i just wrote a response but then realised i misunderstood you. sorry about that

    you are right, that also works

    my intention was to direct attention to how the image implies cis-normativity/transphobia. altho i do see how the image did that by simplifying reality for comical effect and while i dont think i played into similarly opressive structures, i did simply reality myself in my comment.

    you are right for the situation i described in my comment. you can combine being a lesbian with a lot of other things, to make it a viable contraception.

    i would argue tho, that not liking dick is the entire reason one wouldnt get pregnant in your situation. the lesbian part doesnt matter. meanwhile both a transphobe and a lesbian can get pregnant on their own but a transphobic lesbian can not.

    i feel like this is emblematic for the shit state of the world. like ppl should write essays because they wanna say something. if you can have an ai write your essay for you, then why are u even writing an essay in the first place? i know the answer to that is because your school or work commands it, and thats such alienating bs.






  • science is often biased by cultural ideas. biology, medicine, and psychology, have been used to pathologise or naturalise things along social lines. this is also reflected in the language they created.

    i think it is important for this language to be reevaluated, as culture and the scientific view on the world changes.

    with the distinction between gender and sex becomming more popular, having compleletly destinct words might for example be positive…
