MODERATORS
I find the acceptance of my womanhood is often entirely contingent on my being subservient. I have actually had people hold that over me basically daring me to stand up for myself so they could revoke my womanhood.
oh hey, gender roles
They do hate it when you speak up for yourself, kinda like how misogynistic men in general seemed to hate it when women spoke up for themselves. Hmmm...
Yeah but cis women generally don't immediately start getting treated like a man so it's extra special.
Yeah, it's the perfect example of transmysogyny. Women already suffer from being seen as "difficult and bossy" and "overly emotional and melodramatic" where a man showing the exact same behavior would be viewed as "assertive" and "strong-willed". As a transfem, this gets compounded by our womanhood being doubted and made conditional in the first place.
When ever I communicated with my abusive ex to try and establish boundaries I was basically doing violence against them. I wish I was joking. Everyone else was okay with this because they were a wittle innocent afab flower with more mental illnesses than me.
