Could you please refer me to a point in human history in which “people with penises” were giving birth? The planet you live on sounds fascinating.

I have and you are incorrect. The muscle mass, muscle density, size, and bone density gained during male puberty doesn’t just go away once you start transitioning. Not to mention the fact that not everyone transitions at the same time during their lives.
Yeah, it’s ridiculous to attack women for talking about their vaginas or sex organs. We’ve earned that right.
Well, my point is that the acronym TERF has been completely removed from the actual components, AKA trans-exclusive radical feminism. All those women in pussy hats at the Women’s March were not radical feminists. Mike Pence is not a radical feminist, or a feminist at all. Words have meanings! And when we use the word…
I worry about my daughter, who adults a generation ago would simply consider a “tomboy,” and how she hears / interprets the messages she’s bombarded with today that might negatively affect her perception of herself and gender. At her age she could be easily manipulated, preyed up or confused by those with agenda’s…
We need to evolve, but we also need to listen to why people are having hesitations and why these people from all different directions and parts of life are seemingly, confusingly to some, finding some common ground and really understand them. I do see myself identifying with SOME ideas that seem to get me labeled…
Being a part of Mayday. Rescuing Hannah. Taking down Waterford. Turning Serena Joy. The revolution against Gilead.
She doesn’t have anything useful to contribute, AND she’s a liability. There will be a price on her head. She just put a million marthas, Nick, and whoever else from Mayday in serious jeopardy. I’d be surprised if she doesn’t return to find out that all those people were executed. She knows this is the reality; she…
It was a frustrating ending and made no sense. June was breastfeeding—but she sent her child on a long journey knowing there was no formula, bottles, or anyone else to feed her. Given that all the Marthas risked their lives for her, and Nick held Waterford back with a gun, and Serena gave up the baby, it would be…
Hannah won’t be in constant danger while she’s still a child. And June knows (from Hannah’s own words) that the Commander and Wife she’s with treat her kindly. I assume June is not planning to rescue Hannah after she’s become an adult – that would equal to failure to rescue her at all. Organizing a rescue from outside…
June is an anti-hero-- a certain kind of character in a particular kind of story. The foundation of June’s character is that she is one normal, average woman among many who were thrusted into this perverted situation. To go and make her the face of the entire resistance wouldn’t be true to her character or to the…
June returning is utterly ridiculous because she would have no realistic expectation of surviving upon returning home, and it puts the security of the Marthas in jeopardy too. The eyes will (or should) torture Marthas in front of June to make her give them up - and THEN execute June. The idea that she can flip this…
“As it currently stands, June doesn’t appear to have anything particularly important or useful to contribute to the overall resistance movement”
I’m sorry, but as a Main Character™ she has the class skill Main Character Clout, which gives her +1 to all rolls, and once a day, she can reroll any roll of her choosing…
I understand your point but I have to politely disagree.
Honestly, can you please for the love of anything explain how anything this guy has written is transphobic or hurts trans people? He is advising caution, using the limited data available and first person accounts, about drugging up of children we do not allow to consent to sex, we do not allow to drive, vote, or…
Claims the group has bias against trans group think.
I know people are deeply upset about what Signal writes. But I would point out that as an ally who is not fully up-to-date on all of the debates around trans issues, Signal comes off as quite reasonable in almost all of the screen-quoted conversations. To be clear, I’m not saying he is being reasonable. I don’t know…
I started doing trans activism in the late 90s when I was still a teenager. I went to one of the only trans friendly colleges in the early 2000s in the country, and continued to do that activism. I agree with almost everything that Jesse says. The trans activist community (not the trans community itself) has become…
THANK YOU.
People can both call bullshit on these rankings and speak to the reality of life as a woman in the States simultaneously. Women have it FAR worse in many other countries not on this list, but what singles out the U.S. is the incredible speed at which women’s QOL and rights have regressed. This country can’t even ratify…
