  1. Today, I'm chewing on Kate Manne's theory of misogyny as a social force for policing the roles of "human giver" and "human being" in what it has to say about the shapes of transmisogyny. I'm not sure if others have developed it in this way, but here's the thoughts it spurred in me.

    It's especially this summary of Manne's framework in Nagoski & Nagoski's "Burnout" that got me thinking:

    "Kate Manne describes a system in which one class of people, the “human givers,” are expected to offer their time, attention, affection, and bodies willingly, placidly, to the other class of people, the “human beings.” The implication in these terms is that human beings have a moral obligation to be or express their humanity, while human givers have a moral obligation to give their humanity to the human beings." (Nagoski & Nagoski, p. 8)

    Of course, cis women are expected to be and socialized into the role of "human giver" while cis men are expected to be and socialized into the role of "human being," and if a woman should choose to act as a human being, rather than solely a giver, she is then punished - this is how the system of misogyny is enforced.

  2. do people realize #feminism is for all #genders, and therefore #transfeminism is also for all genders? it's not just for #trans women, i promise.

  3. Today I got called an “uwu afab”, a bitch, AND a cunt, all for daring to say that as a trans man, I deserve a voice in feminism and transfeminism.

  4. as a small introduction,
    i am oda, full name odarka, use it/its or feminine words to refer to me and describe me as object, thing, machine, device, piece.
    something along the lines of "robot girl" will do, but i do appreciate more original and diverse ways to describe and compliment my nonhumanity and femininity.
    i am also transmisogyny affected and transfeminist
    i never kinkshame, don't have a dni and always have open dm's

  5. On Sunday, March 23rd our co-op will be hosting author Sophie Lewis, whose razor sharp thinking—ever provocative and visionary—has made them one of our favorite feminist writers. Speaking on "enemy feminisms" (the topic of their most recent book), @reproutopia catalogs our movement's bad kin while making the case for the bold, liberatory politics we need to overcome fascism, nationalism, femmephobia, and cisness.

    You can find more event information, and copies of "Enemy Feminisms: Terfs, Policewomen, and Girlbosses Against Liberation," at firestorm.coop/events/3310-fem.

    "This book is mandatory reading for anyone interested in a rough and compelling vision of the feminist past, present, and future. Honest, brutal, historically comprehensive, and brilliant."
    —Judith Butler

  6. Today is not a day just for feminism.

    Today is yet another day to remind ourselves about the intertwinkng of all the issues we face, hence the value of the intersectionality of our fights.

    Firstly, and most importantly, we should get used not to call ourselves feminist, but transfeminist. Trans rights are human rights! 🏳️‍⚧️

    Let us always recognise how gender violence cannot be decoupled from political, economical, and climatic violence.

    Let us see the people around us, by our side, not just those who do not want to accept our freedom. We stand together, or we don’t.

    💕 Tons of love for you all, tons of fuckyous to all self-centered white males who think they have it all figured out.

  9. "On 8th of March 2023, we call for a Counter Cloud Action Day."

    ⬇️

    On this day, we will try to withhold from using, feeding, or caring for The Big Tech Cloud. The #strike calls for a hyperscaledown of extractive digital services, and for an abundance of collective organising. We join the long historical tail of international feminist strikes, because we understand this fight to be about labour, care, anti-racism, queer life and trans★feminist techno-politics.

  10. Being individually #cis and/or #het is not the problem. The problem is #Cisheteronormativity: The idea that being #cishet is inherently superior and more desirable than other states of being, that being cishet is the default and the norm from which other states of being deviate, that those other states of being should be cured or prevented.
