Not gonna go on a massive rant to you about the build-up to Trump’s election and the kind of slapfights I was getting into with progressive sorts over them giving out free passes for people who were body shaming trump and especially (dick) size shaming. You already know what it would have looked like.

Imagine me telling progressives that they aren’t actually trans allies because they will attack men over their dick size and that they aren’t feminists because they will bodyshame people and that they aren’t queer allies because they were valiantly defending the Putin/Trump edit of “My God, Help Me to Survive This Deadly Love”. I wasn’t a popular person lol.

I can’t imagine what it’s like to be trans and to have people insisting that they’re trans allies or wearing “you are safe with me” pins when they turn around, do shit like that, and then lecture and gaslight you over why it was actually the right thing to do. It must be incredibly isolating: “If these are my allies then I’m in danger.”
