we know not all Christians are bigots, and when we talk about bigoted Christians we aren't calling all Christians bigots
it would be far more helpful to tell bigoted Christians that not all Christians are bigots and that they don't have to be that way
(this argument can also apply to TERFs, MRAs, ultra-nationalists and other groups where bigoted voices result in a negative opinion of the whole of a larger, not intrinsically bigoted group)
At the full, moon, do you turn into a Red Wolf, an Eastern Wolf, an Arabian Wolf with shiny eyes, a pretty Indian Wolf, or a wooly short-legged fluffy Tibetan Wolf? Or the Eurasian Canis Lupus Lupus?
Does the witch magic interfere with the cyborg stuff? And are your wings wings of gears and metal, of feathers and light, or of magic, or of bone and skin like a bat?
I am a Red Wolf, and my wings are bionic, and sometimes the potions I brew do weird things to my circuits. ^_^

They've been brought up here before, but they don't call themselves that, obviously.
At the moment they're a real problem in the feminist community, and the community is going to have to police itself if it doesn't want to be associated with them, hence the comparison.
More people have said that and been killed than there are thorium decay products.
People who say things like there is no such thing as gender identity are wrong because they are fish who don't realize they are in water. If people who call themselves feminists want to make my life harder, or want me dead, because I'm a "fykye wymynynz" then those people are my enemies and I cannot condone the things they say and maybe they were just hateful asshats to begin with.

1.) They expect we’ll be shocked to see statistics about them being killed, and don’t realize, some of us wish they would ALL be dead.
- BevJo, TERF opinion leader, author and speaker
While there are many who feel that morality must be built into law, I believe that the elimination of transsexualism is not best achieved by legislation prohibiting transsexual treatment and surgery but rather by legislation that limits it and by other legislation that lessens the support given to sex-role stereotyping, which generated the problem to begin with. Any legislation should be aimed at the social conditions that initiate and promote the surgery as well as the growth of the medical-institutional complex that translates these stereotypes into flesh and blood.
- Janice Raymond (1980), Technology on the Social and Ethical Aspects of Transsexual Surgery, TERF opinion leader, author and speaker
2.)Now one of the things I find puzzling about it is that, when I look at the House of Lords debate on this legislation, those I agree with most are the radical right. Particularly the person I find that I agree with most, in here, and I’m not sure he will be pleased to find this, is Norman Tebbitt… Tebbitt also says that the savage mutilation of transgenderism, we would say if it was taking place in other cultures apart from the culture of Britain, was a harmful cultural practice, and how come we’re not recognising that in the British Isles. So he makes all of these arguments from the radical right, which is quite embarrassing to me, but I have to say, so called progressive and left people are not recognising the human rights violations of transgenderism or how crazy the legislation is.
3.)[Transsexual surgery] could be likened to political psychiatry in the Soviet Union. I suggest that transsexualism should best be seen in this light, as directly political, medical abuse of human rights. The mutilation of healthy bodies and the subjection of such bodies to dangerous and life-threatening continuing treatment violates such people’s rights to live with dignity in the body into which they were born, what Janice Raymond refers to as their “native” bodies. It represents an attack on the body to rectify a political condition, “gender” dissatisfaction in a male supremacist society based upon a false and politically constructed notion of gender difference… Recent literature on transsexualism in the lesbian community draws connections with the practices of sadomasochism.
4.)My main conclusion is that transsexualism is basically a social problem whose cause cannot be explained except in relation to the sex role and identities that a patriarchal society generates. Through hormonal and surgical means, transsexuals reject their “native” bodies, especially their sexual organs, in favor of the body and the sexual organs of the opposite sex. They do this mainly because the body and the genitalia, especially, come to incarnate the essence of their rejected masculinity and desired femininity. Thus transsexualism is the result of socially prescribed definitions of masculinity and femininity, one of which the transsexual rejects in order to gravitate towards the other.
Thus I will argue, in Chapter III, that the First Cause of transsexualism is a gender-defined society whose norms of masculinity and femininity generate the desire to be transsexed…. I believe that the primary cause of transsexualism cannot be derived from intrapsyic attitudes and/or behaviors, or even from family conditioning processes. One must begin with the roles of a gender-defined society, as the First Cause of transsexualism (that which, in the Aristotelian sense, sets all other causes in motion.)
- Janice Raymond (1979), The Transsexual Empire, page 16
A significant number of transmen are lesbians who report that they want to transition in an attempt to escape misogyny – their own internalized version as much as society’s. A significant percentage of transwomen are homosexual males, pressured into transitioning by conservative society that hates gender non-conforming gay men.
to be fair i don't think i've ever seen one say she wants transgender people dead, but they still write bigoted things which feed into a culture of violence

Imipolex G that is a little bit like planning a battle strategy and positing that we probably will not want to be wearing bright orange fursuits when we attack. ^_^;
i remember Naney quoting a tumblr post earlier about how every time you encounter a well-known published feminist you should google her name followed by the words 'racism' and 'transphobia', and that in many cases they turn out to be one or the other, or both
i find this extremely depressing, as well as highly frustrating

On the plus side, Brennan also gave us the gloriously stupid word Pretendbian. It's such a fun word to say. Pretendbian.
I regret looking up this name. Here are a few charming lines I found on a blog.
Trans women aren’t female.
Also, “trans girl”? Seriously? No.
Diana, you are a man. That’s cool. Be well.
Hi Indi, How was your dick-inside-out surgery? Healing well?
What is it about thinking you’re a woman that makes you unable to spell my name. Go on, it’s not womanly to misspell names, I have faith in you!!
No, sir, I am not. Feel free to call me to discuss. 410-336-9857. And thanks for the tip that I should do something “proactive for feminism,” does that mean “suck my trans penis”?
All of these were directed at trans females in conversation. What kind of person is this?

well, that's me proven wrong :(
boo gender stereotypes
boo I say
i find this extremely depressing, as well as highly frustrating
i don't want to allow ignorant and hateful people to claim exclusive rights to the word, after everything feminism has fought for and achieved so far
sounds like an allergy medication
