is trauma rational?

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
NAYRT--no, but ffs, it's also not rational to expect the world to remove every possible source of trauma for everybody ever, especially when kicking trans women out of women's shelters hurts way more trans women than it helps cis women. It's like assholes who claim that pitbulls are too dangerous to live and should just be exterminated, but with even less justification. (How many times has a cis man dressed as a woman in order to assault a cis woman? Once? Twice? Never?)

Let's flip the argument someone (you?) upthread made about how trans women should have their own government funded, separate from cis-women shelters and until they exist should just live with abuse (until they die waiting for help.)

Cis women who are scared of penises should fund their own penis-free spaces. Until they exist, they should just live with their abuse and possibly die waiting (although maybe not if Rowling and other transphobes throw enough money at you. Try the salvation army, they'd love it.) Stop expecting women's shelters to let trans women die and make your own exclusionist shelter network. But you have to make a big deal about it being penis free since that's literally all you care about.

does trauma give you the right to hurt people?

"I was abused by my husband who was black and now I hold a grudge against all black men and vilify them to my millions of followers and even wrote a book where the villain is a deranged black man", imagine excusing this shit when it's framed in a context that's aimed at trans people.

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
It's not even that clear a line! It'd be like her saying "A white man abused me, but some black men abuse women too, you know! And so now I hold a grudge against all black men and vilify them to my millions of followers and even wrote a book where the villain is a deranged black man"

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 09:57 am (UTC)(link)
It's more like "A white man abused me, so now I use my platform to highlight the issue of white people pretending to be black to get into black spaces and I wrote a book where a white woman became an African Studies professor by pretending she's a black latina."

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 10:00 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, fuck right off.

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 10:02 am (UTC)(link)
Do you deny the fact that mixed-race people have to deal with shit because of the famous people and media platform highlighting the extremely rare cases of white people pretending to be black?

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
NAYRT but "cis male rapists in dresses" would be analogous to white people pretending to be POC.

Which makes the people arguing that trans women shouldn't be allowed in cis women's spaces in case they provide cover for predatory cis men analogous to the people attacking mixed race people because they think they're secretly white poseurs.

Those people are assholes.

People who attack trans women because they think they're cis men are also assholes.

(Anonymous) 2020-10-11 12:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, those people are assholes. Yet blackfishing callout posts are upvoted on tumblr, twitter, and even f!s on a regular basis, and nobody talks about it with half as much heat as they do about Rowling.

The villain wasn't a trans man, this is what happens when you fall for clickbait

(Anonymous) 2020-10-10 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
AYRT: I was molested when I was eight. Please let me know what groups I can argue against giving equal rights.
