at a #biden #government sponsored #pride event, a group of #transwomen #trans #activists were banned from attending future #whiteHouse events for the heinous unforgivable sin of posting chests-without-tops videos to #socialMedia, while the #transMAN right next to them who was ALSO chest-without-top, DIDN'T get banned. how curious!
honestly if you're surprised, you're not paying attention
over and over I've said, what better demonstrates the blatant #sexism and #misogyny of how a #transfolk or #nonbinary person gains or loses the right to go without a shirt in public and on #socialMedia? how is it not #transphobic AF to tell a transman "we don't care what you identify as- until you've had #topSurgery, #thepatriarchy has decided that you still look too female, and therefore will still be subjected to #censorship that all #AFAB and all #cisWomen face"? how is it not transphobic to say to a transwoman, "good thing you are flat chested with broad shoulders, that means you still get to enjoy the freedom to go shirtless in public as all AMAB and #CISmen!"? and that's not even getting into the nonsense of assigning gender, and therefore restricting rights, of those who identify as #genderless or #genderfluid!
WHY ARE MORE PEOPLE NOT OUTRAGED BY THIS?? how are the vast majority of #Americans, even supposed #liberals, #leftists and #progressives, just so unthinkingly accepting of this continued #injustice?
