Tma and tme is just refering to someone as their agab and a stupid terfy concept
@budsofstone it's not a stupid terfy concept unless you think transfeminists are all terfs
@trans_caracal @budsofstone it also doesnt refer to people as their agab is the other thing
@lz @trans_caracal people use it in that way. Its exclusionary in its common usage towards nonbinary and intersex people especially.
I've said this before but it frames trans-misogyny as a special sort of oppression. its just an intersection of it like any other intersectional bigotry.
Its assuming a lot about someones experiences, people don't fit into boxes.
The concept has criteria that often enough boils down to are u to transitioning from an assigned masculine role to a feminine one.
@budsofstone @trans_caracal aaa i didnt mean to unfollow im just bad at clicking buttons
@lz @trans_caracal there by excluding any trans/genderqueer people that dont fit that box. From talking about the misogyny they experience.
To elaborate on this further, it has a bio-essentialist feel for the social sphere. With an implied call to "socialized as a" ideology, which we know is terfy.
Exclusion helps no one and plenty of people who you might not think experience transphobia AND misogyny do.
Its not a good look to let oppression define our identities and community politics.
