Radical Transfeminist here: Buy Dollar Shave Club: It's way better, it's cheaper, and it's not trying to move it's products via self-congratulating victim-blaming... oh, and you don't even have to go to the store to get it.

I tend to think the problem is better understood as a Male-assigned / Female-assigned problem. When we look at transmisogynistic violence dwarfing violence against cis women, when we look at Steinem and other radical cisfeminists' rhetorical or direct participation in the delisting of transition medicine in 1981, we see a consistent pattern. Cisfeminist's don't care about women, they care about the betwatted.

And we've seen transition go from something next to impossible to get to something that now, is just on the happy side of illegal... you've seen the prevalence of social transition skyrocket... if it were as easy to present as the gender you are as it is to date the gender you're attracted to, and it will be, you'll see another massive increase in transition prevalence. Probably close in magnitude to the current avowed cisGLB prevalence of 8%

Odd, Janice Raymond has argued that when sexism died, there would be no transition either... the two-orders-of-magnitude increase in transition appears to belie your thesis, as the CDC is finally forced to admit rape is not as gendered an affair as predicted, as Amanda Marcotte rightly gets pushback for claiming a male rape victim made up his story to abuse his girlfriend, as SFU funds a mens' space, and as child courts get less and less likely to favour the mother.

I honestly don't, because at least with Bugsy, the discussion about should we have to go through indignities of a severity that no cis woman faces in the West for basic control of our own bodies, the right to such outrageous things as work, housing, and public accommodations, all of that comes right to the fore. Cis feminists betray their own stated principles when they ignore the bleeding edge, but then, that's been a long-standing pattern.

I do try... anyway, we've pretty much gotten our pictures in the dictionary next to thread-drift, but yeah... I think your cis feminist friends are not as good to us as they say they are... I think they ignore those of us stuck in the closet, and they only use an example of transmisogyny when they can wrap themselves in it and use it as proof that they're the ones who need more intervention on their behalves.

Well, you sound like a reform liberal, which is an important strain of liberal thought... there are, however, neo-liberals, such as Thatcher, Reagan, etc... and classical liberals, who frequently call themselves libertarians... I can't really break down liberalism in five seconds, but if I were to identify one reason I'm a conservative instead of a liberal, it would probably be that while I think individual persons are good, people are invariably bad if left alone.

More accurately, American conservatives seem to worship the 1890s, when worker's rights were weak, concentration of wealth was high, and progress on inter-group equality had just been pushed back significantly by the 'redeemers.' And recalling Brown v. Board of Education, as well as the fall of McCarthy, the 1950s get an undeservedly poor reputation wrt the advance of non-class-based human rights. I'm a classical conservative, which means I view society as an organism, one which evolves to meet …

I look at the minimum wage compared to hourly productivity, the size of the welfare state, the degree to which civil liberties were protected (outside of a significant portion of the US), the ratio between wages and productivity, and the independence of the media, union membership, and the top marginal tax rate, and yes, the era preceding the Vietnam War, while deeply troubled, largely was a golden age of progress on every front, and security backstopping that progress.

Awesome.... and that's pretty much it, yes. It's why I call myself a bi-directional feminist, because I tend to think cis hetero men and cis hetero women both are harmed by and profit from sexism. It doesn't 'balance out', in fact, it lowers everyone's utility, but cis men aren't the only ones with carveouts that nobody else has.

Even parties with weak party discipline have a generally accepted party line... it's not monolithic, but then, neither is sexism. It's just an aggregate of fuckupery. I don't think there's one way to be a feminist, but most of the ways that people are feminists, and most of the ways one can acceptably be portrayed as a feminist without being shouted off the stage by other feminists, involve the things I just mentioned... consider it a political consensus if that helps.

No, that's not a fact. That's a cissexist standard based on willful ignorance, and the conflation of genital morphology with sex.

And when you consider that "gender"=="sex", doesn't that make the terms, you know, sort of redundant? Yes, which is why governments seem to use gender and sex interchangeably, even when referring to genital morphology. And no... I don't think they're unwieldy, but if you prefer Mullerian and Wolffian, those work well too. I still consider that "sex" is perfectly valid, and best conceived of as more or less the set of one's sexually dimorphic traits (including neurology, including sex hormones, i…

If that were true the expression of gender would be universal amongst all human species. No... not really, because all of those gendered ephemera that are social construction, as opposed to gender itself, are coded as belonging to one gender or another. So if a boy is told that pink is for girls, he's less likely to want pink... he's not hard-wired to dislike pink. He's hardwired to model and learn maleness.

I respond with evidence, and you respond with a restatement of your original position... interesting. At any rate, I don't believe differentiating sex from gender is remotely helpful, or for that matter, accurate, when you're referring not to midbrain morphology (which... you know... sapient species, pretty important) but genital morphology, secondary sexual characteristics, endocrinology, or the production of gametes, which are utterly secondary.

Yes, that's what we refer to as conditional cis privilege. The more cis you look, the better you're treated, right down to laws that say if your genitalia look more cis, you get more recognition and basic human rights... What you have said is correct, but that doesn't make it right.

If MtF trans people are just "brains in the wrong body", why is it they almost always identify as lesbian or bisexual women and almost always prefer women as mates, even after hormone treatment and sex reassignment surgery? Well, that's probably because gestational lack of testosterone makes one more likely to identify as female and more likely to be gynophillic. Female-assigned children of mothers who took DES (an artificial estrogen) were more likely than average to be bi or lesbian, and male-…

Yeah, except 50-year old MRAs aren't lining up to buy books and pay to see lectures and create emeritus positions for, and eulogize, traditionalists, like cis feminists do for the following transmisogynistic feminists: Greer, Daly, Morgan, Rich, Raymond, Steinem, Jeffreys, Bindel, Solanas (read the SCUM Manifesto... it's dripping with cissexist misogyny), among others.

The chemical issue to which you refer happened during weeks 10-13 of gestation. It's hard-wired in a non-neuroplastic section of the brain by the time someone articulates their gender dysphoria. Also, transition (success rate: 98%) typically costs nowhere near the amount you just quoted. Someone with vaginoplasty and facial feminization surgery, a minority and a small minority of transitioners respectively, would spend 60K. Me?

Except in Guatemala, Uruguay, California, New Mexico, Ontario, and most of the Western World, actually. Transgender refers to persistent identification at variance with one's CASAB, transsexual refers to use of or desire to make use of medical technology, regardless of availability or complexity, to change the way one's body is gendered at variance with one's CASAB.

I should not have to have an expensive surgery that I do not need, and that serves only to make me assimilate to cissexist standards of what a woman is, with a high risk of complication and loss of sexual function just to get basic human rights. End of argument.

The rapists were a 60-40 split... which, as we've seen with the War on Women rhetoric, is enough for unidirectional feminists to pretend it's all men doing it, even when the (patently misogynistic and classist) bill in Arizona that says life begins before conception is written by a cis woman, sponsored by a cis woman, and signed into law by a cis woman... the menz made them do it.

One apparantly "trans" commenter said that as long as the woman in the case is pre-op she shouldn't be allowed to change there.

There's the study on male-assigned children (n=500) of mothers with suspected or confirmed (you couldn't ask the mothers in every case) exposure to DES (an artificial estrogen that used to be used as a prophylactic against miscarriage) that showed a 30% prevalence of transsexuality, as compared to the current prevalence of 0.5%... seems to indicate that gestational endocrinology plays a role in identified sex.

No, religion is not biological, because religion is something that occurs in a neuroplastic section of the brain. The hypothalimus is nonneuroplastic, which means you can't think yourself trans, or gay for that matter, though it'd probably make my dating life easier if that were the case.

It's worse, because it acts in ignorance of gestational development. Trans people are pretty biological, last time I checked, and have sexually dimorphic hypothalamic neurology, just like cis people, and plenty of us have other developmental differences, or did I hallucinate the breasts I grew when I was 13?

Yes, the discharge is identical to cis vaginal discharge... i.e. we come clear, we get wet... the usual, just the plumbing's a different arrangement of the same components. glans = clitoris scrotum = labia shaft = walls foreskin = hood Only difference there is the arrangements and the effects of endocrinology.

First of all, the midbrain is sexually dimorphic and pretty damned biological... in fact, unlike the gonads, you can't live without it. Trans women are women, biologically as well, just like a cis woman with PCOS, just like Julia Child, with her internal testes and Y chromosome (CAIS), women, where it counts in a sapient species.

In my experience, looking at bi-directional sexism as well, one has to consider cisness. Trans women, despite taking estrogen, have shorter life-expectancies than cis men, and part of that is the intersection of masculosexism (femmephobia) with cissexism. Sometimes women are denied sexism that favors women, and mentioning lack of cisness as a factor in that, recognizing that they pay gap is not so easily corrected for when one is not cis, that the sentencing discount does not similarly exist, re…

Well, to some extent one has to recognize how these dynamics exist. Part of the problem is that the connotation of privilege is often, "Something someone has that they don't deserve."

Everyone should have their gender identity accepted, everyone should have the right to equitable treatment by the justice system, everyone should be treated as though their safety is impo…

Transsexuality has a prevalence of social transition of 1 in 200, a prevalence of avowed transsexuality of 1 in 100. (Conway et al) To be sure, that's a little shy of exclusively homosexual orientations for cis people, but at what percentage should we just refer to women who are attracted to men not as straight or heterosexual or androphillic, or a cissexist 'lesbian' making out with a trans dude, but just calling them 'normal?' Cis is to trans as hetero is to homo. Pretty simple SAT question.

People are different, yes, but abnormal and atypical are two different things.
