Exclusionists are fucking laughable tbh. Imagine making hatred a core facet of your fucking identity, what a joke. You must be a riot at parties.
“But they’re taking up all of the LGBT resources!!!” lmao what the fuck is this? Age of Empires? Fucking ARK? I WANT TO BUILD AN AUTO TURRET BUT THE ASEXUALS HAVE BUILT PILLARS OVER ALL THE METAL SPAWNS :((((((
it IS cringe to still give jkr your money and i’m tired of acting like it’s fine as long as you’re aware she sucks. yes even if you’re lgbt+ it is still cringe and terrible stop doing it
it’s not cringe it’s hateful. by giving JKR your money you are actively fueling transmisogyny. That’s not cringey, that’s bigotry.
I’ve missed this (I’ve been taking a Twitter holiday for the last month, for my own mental health), but I can imagine. I’m sorry.
Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Trans rights are human rights. I’m sorry that some people have such a hard time getting their heads around that. But the world is changing, and history is with you.
This, from 13 months ago, has just been noticed by transphobes, who have been screenshotting it, announcing that I’m jumping onto a bandwagon and they won’t read my books any more. So I thought I’d reblog it, because there may be some trans men or trans women out there who need reassurance, and this might help. (Thank you to all the people who turned up on my Twitter feed hoping for a fight for reminding me to reblog it, even if that wasn’t what you thought you were doing.)
alright a little explanation for listeners who might not have run into this stuff before:
the concept of a ‘gold star’ is all about assigning some kind of moral purity to having not fucked someone in particular.
By pretending this is a thing worth giving a shit about, these people hope to make incredibly sexy people (bisexual and transgender and also you specifically reading this) feel like they can’t participate in the lesbian community because they aren’t pure of twat or whatever.
I will never assume someone who asks about this is asking in good faith. I will tell them to fuck off. They are exclusionists, they are doing an evil thing and they are wrong. Period.
Love you lots bye
people are going around spamming this ask just to try and re-normalize the definition. it’s a terf initiative.
