As a Butch myself and a Butch whose has lettered in Femme/Butch (umm no that doesnt mean I understand Femmes), wtf is this woman talking about??? This ftM woman obviously is completely ignorant about just what occurs within the fabric of femme/butch "courtship" or anything else femme/butch related.
Yet it doesnt stop her from ignorantly ascribing the same banal heteropatriarchal nonsense that has beset Femme/Butch for the last 5000 years, all the while occupying the gay and lesbian community! Yet coming from an ftM woman I am not surprised nor shocked. This is precisely why this woman has developed a mental disorder. She has completely internalized masculine equals male and feminine equals female to the point of pathology. Like most heterocentrics she cannot comprehend female masculinity nor Femme lesbianism. Therefore she ignorantly interprets Femme/Butch AS female/male(hetero).
But while this garbage is passing as "fact", there are those out there that are shocked and angered that some members of the lesbian community are choosing to reclaim radical lesbianism and remove ourselves from the quagmire of the queer theoried alphabet soup that the lesbian community is currently drowning in!
The winds of change are blowing and the leaves of the NRLFF are taking flight!
This is a video that was posted to my LJ in response to Case's (NRLFF member) participation in upholding certain truths regarding the trans disordered and the femme/butch community. LJ links below:
It is a typical patriarchal trans tactic usually bordering on violence in order to silence any voice that even faintly voices the voice of reason. The young woman who created it and posted it is seen here.
She is of the new "trend" of young women developing the trans disorder through anime, partly out of the ever shrinking roles for females. These young women through "cosplay" (think cross dressing cartoon style) internalized in an autogynephilic manner similar to that of Mtfers, their chosen anime character. Because of the softness given to many male characters these characters are "cosplayed" generally by females. Most of these young women are heterosexual btw. Like ftM's who default to "gay" after taking faux male hormones/breast mutilations, these young women in trying to be true to anime, proclaim their sexuality as yaoi (boy love).
Trannyism we know is 99% performance, in these cases think the ULTIMATE performance!
None the less their trans disorder is just as severe as all other routes at which the individual arrives at trannydom. This video is proof positive of that! If the trans person/s feels in any way that their disorder is called into question they at first (in my experience) generally try and use their logic to refute questions and when that fails lash out, many time with threats of violence and sometimes threats of rape (again my experience).
The trans community as a whole is notorious for these types of reactions whenever a mirror is held up to them. Because of all the self doubts they themselves daily carry regarding the insanity of "transition" they cannot and will not tolerate anyone who reinforces those doubts.
Simply look at the J. Michael Bailey fiasco. For those not familiar Bailey pushished a book about the two different kinds of trannyism in Mtf's. Those who where born gay and internalized their homophobia to a pathological extreme and those (the majority of Mtfs) who took their cross dressing fetish to a pathological extreme.
Bailey was swiftly attacked by the trans community when his study was published. He was stalked, hounded, slandered, his children were stalked and name called, untrue claims were made against his work (later proven untrue), various Mtf's lied and said he had had sex with them (Case be glad they didnt go that far...lol...ewww), anything that entered their ill minds to silence Bailey short of murder the trans community tried. It was actually an intersexed person who finally called the trans community on their "harassment" of Bailey NOT because of what he said was untrue, but simply BECAUSE of what he had written!
See Case, you're in good company! If what you had written wasnt accurate and truthful, you wouldnt have been singled out to be silenced. This little hushing up stunt PROVES just how RIGHT and SPOT on you are! I personally am proud to have you as a central member of the New Radical Lesbian Feminist Front!
Let me add to the NRLFF members reading this, while the trans community isnt the major focus of our group, due to queer theory holding open the door to every lesbian dwelling, we will regularly have to deal with exactly what Case has dealt with as a whole and sometimes as individuals. Remember though when things get ugly it is not because we're wrong, but instead because we're right!
This was fair use capped from another popular heteropatriarchal femme/butch site called butchfemmedancedotcom.
As angry as it makes me to read this kind of transignorance, I will be honest and say I actually feel sorry for women with this disordered mind set.
Here these women are thinking, believing through the blur of thier disorder that if they attain a scant hint of MALE masculinity the Femmes will come a running! How sad, how distorted, how untrue! One thing we see on the popular femme/butch sites over and over and over in thread after thread after thread is "single ftMs" searching for the Femmes who "want" them, all to no avail.
Femmes are LESBIANS, Femmes lust after Butch PUSSY and TITS among other luscious Butch body parts! Femmes do NOT desire fauxmen, they do NOT desire men of any stripe period. I find it horrifically disrespectful to Femmes to allow threads like these even to exist! I find it equally deplorable that femme/butch sites continue to lead ftM women on in their transdelusions believing that they have a shot at having a Femme fall for them.
While there are some disturbed straight women occupying lesbians spaces who will give an ftM women a shot, sadly due to the severity of both their various mental disturbances these relationships fail and fail miserably! Lying to the mentally ill simply to make a profit from their membership is SICK, giving the mentally ill hope where none exist is fucking CRUEL!
And promoting transignorance of Femme's lesbian desires is unfathomable!!!
Fair use capped from the queer theoried femme/butch site butch-femmedotcom.
The first cap explicitly illustrates this womans hatred for her body, well specifically her "sexual" organs. (Do we dare wonder why it is primarily only ever body parts considered "sexual" that the trans ID'd obsess and focus on?? Obviously in this womans case her arms are still female, her legs, her elbows, her knees, her feet and hands....) It also illustrates a continued hatred despite drugs and mutilations to alter her appearance and the appearance/removal of her "sexual" organs. Looks to me like the "treatment" she has received by the ME hasnt worked its magic, go figure.
Now as to the prime reason for singling out this woman's comments. I am not even a Femme and I am outraged by her ignorance and lack of respect towards Femmes! This is the sort of garbage that plays right into the hands of straight men who have been saying forever all a good lesbian needs is some cock to set her straight! Perhaps thats all the poster herself needs, a good stiff cock to rid her of her BDD!
Femmes are lesbians for a reason, because like any other lesbian they are attracted (mentally/physically) to other WOmen. Now those women may have masculine(note masculine, NOT male) traits BUT they are still WOmen! Their relationship is a LESBIAN relationship, they desire each others FEmale bodies, arms, hands, legs, breasts, clits, vags, backs, stomachs etc!!! It is a LESBIAN experience!
Her logic regarding Femmes is literally beyond belief. I would wager she is not only single but has little to no experience with actual Femmes. Likely she was/is "stone"(sexual dysfunctional) and what if any sexual experience she has had would have been with troubled straight women playing in the lesbian sandbox.
Now given the pellucid extent of her poor mental state one can go slightly easy on her. But what of the sites maintainers/MODS etc? I actually went back several times just to see if these comments were deleted or at the very least questioned by a higher authority, nada! Where is the responsibility for the misogyny raging at Femmes through this womans comments??? Has phallocentric queer theory completely disabled the brains of nearly every woman on this site???
