Does a Female Transitioner's Voice have a place on a Feminist Blog?

A space to post your opinions regarding yesterdays poll.

Should I provide a post or two a week where female transitioners can voice their opinions regardless of how those opinions are at the opposite end of mine? And despite that the trans community doesnt allow any differing voices, not even their own.

Gender Queer

As mentioned in a previous post, I was asked to say a little something on "genderqueer", and "a little something" is about all gender queer will get from me. Gender queer, like "gender bender," is an engendered term of Queer Theory/theorist. Like all things queer, gender queer is empty of any meaning until the individual who is utilizing the term fills it with their particular brand of meaning, depending on the time of day of course.

Gender queer falls directly under the Special Snowflake Syndrome umbrella. The individual who chooses to inject meaning into gender queer feels a sense of specialness, which they clearly are lacking. Think of teenagers trying on new hair styles or piercings while searching for who they are. Gender queer is an identity outfit, put on, then later discarded once the person matures past needing a pseudo identity.

In a nutshell gender queer is yesterdays bisexual, a temporary "identity" that houses the individual until the individual matures, discarding gender queer, no longer needing the term to feel unique. As gender queer is a transitory identity I havent much else to say on the matter.

How to MAKE a lesbian LIKE [a] Transman


While skimming my blog's stats this morning, I came across this winning screen cap. A transman had the audacity to google "how to make a lesbian like transman". In other words, how can a transman force a lesbian to like him in a romantic manner? Because of course lesbians have no fucking agency of our own, we're just historical fuck objects for male masturbatory fantasies and now apparently fuck objects for chemically acquired male privileged transmen! Fuck objects presumed or expected to be at the beck, call and cock of every transman who was previously was a lesbian!


First, it is impossible to force anyone to "like" or fall in love with another. Second, lesbians do not date/fall in love with men or women who pretend to be men. We desire, date and fall in love with women, thats why we're lesbians and not straight! Chemically acquired male privilege may get transmen a lot of things in this world, male approval, male/female respect, better education opportunities, better jobs/job opportunities etc etc etc, but one thing it wont get you? Lesbians!

Trans Trending-Who is Transitioning


Female transition isnt anti-feminism, it is the ABSENCE of feminism.

Trans HATE

A regular reader recently suggested I write a little about "trans hate", by trans hate she was referring to the over abundant hateful and hate filled comments I receive so often from female transitioners. She sees this blog's contents instead as being "trans caring", NOT trans hate! I wouldnt exactly categorize my blog as "trans caring" so much so as I would say, trans preventing. Prevention by providing a safe space where the oodles of misinformation, lack of information, excessive exaggerations and flat out lies about female transition can be brought to light and discussed without worry about being attacked, "banned" or silenced. Prevention by providing a space where it is acceptable to expand the narrow notions of what a female can be so that we can all each be our own kind of female, not the "female" we've been taught we have to be. And prevention by instilling some basic pride in just being female.

Interestingly, this community of  female transitioners, these transmen, who claim to "love women" and embrace "feminism" despise and angrily attack any woman who challenges what they arrogate as their "feminist decision", any female who inserts a healthy dose of reality like the T they inject to maintain their ideas of themselves as "men" and any female utilizing the feminism they say they believe in to dismantle the misogyny they've so eagerly bosomed! For those women, women like myself, there is nothing but a pure vile hatred. For us they coil, spitting their hate filled viper venom with name calling the most UNfeminist verbiages like "bitch, cunt, whore, dyke and man hater". For us we receive threats of "rape" and other physical violence's. For us they'll use terrorist tactics like the best of men trying desperately to instill fear by claiming to know where we live or be "watching" us, all in the hope of silencing our voices!

But the hatred they sling at us, like an asylum patient flings shit on a wall, is really a projected hatred, the hatred they feel for themselves. And the voices they want to silence isnt our voices, it is the female voice in their own heads. They drug her, they mutilate her but the thing they can never to do is to silence her! For she IS them, she is in each of the billions of cells that make up their brain and body, she is in every beat of their hearts and every breath taken. They can threaten us, they can attack us, yet her, they will NEVER silence. So when you see transmen regurgitating female hatred, remember it isnt you they truly hate, it is themselves.

Another Spared from Trans Trending

Received last night and in an eerily similar vein to the last thing I posted here. Regarding both emails, more than any strength they may have derived from my blog, here is two examples of true female strength and bravery. Because strength and bravery is exactly what it takes to live life as a female in this world who dares to turn her back on the colossal pressures surrounding us all from societal conventions and the gender straight jacket those conventions are hell bent to strap each and every female in!

Bravo to all the brave females out there who are turning their backs on trans trending and if you have a story to share, I'll be more than happy to feature it here.Together we can both help to make a difference by changing and expanding what a female is and can be, WITHOUT changing from female to "male"!
