socialization as a concept is a real enough thing. ‘male socialization’ and ‘female socialization’ as immutable constructs applying broadly and equally across humanity is crackpot terf shit.

first thing i would stress is that trans people should be separated as two words, not transcomrades or transwomen or whatever. I only stress it because the academic transphobe contingent prefers the conflation of transwoman or transperson into a wholly new type of being rather than trans being a descriptive term, like brunette woman or tall person.
for the rest, Julia is a fairly prolific writer and you could have your questions answered by actually reading the entirety of her work. I do think it’s weird to come to the trans comm and talk for an hour about how burrhus frederic skinner is being unfairly maligned by julia serano.
What is the problem with most disenfranchised folks say in the last 5 years on articles or discussion boards engaging in pseudoscientific dismissal?
i mean that doesn’t seem very good faith
i am open to becoming a very annoying online defender of the f35 if one of them bombs or goofily tailspins into abbott’s home/office
they’re easy to get in new , I like them
tbh nertpow is very catchy and you could absolutely sell knock off nerf products under that name
the easiest way to make amerilibs, canadialibs, eurolibs, and anzaclibs completely indistinguishable from one another is to take away the treats. it’s like a hitler particle voltron
a similarly carbrained and demonic entity so that’s only natural
phoenix is a horrible city to walk in. between the heat, concrete, endless sprawl, and the teens in lifted trucks hucking circle k big gulps at pedestrians because walking is “gay”
a gender reveal party for a baby may not determine all of these things in some yes/no binary fashion but i think it’s a little weird to imply that people explosively celebrating their new infant’s baby bits are not in any way invested in it. gender reveal parties are obviously not the genesis of gendered expectations in society but it’s certainly building on those foundations. i’m not pretending to have all the answers and maybe i, a trans woman, am just being identical to a men’s rights activist, idk. in any event, im a person on the internet so you don’t have to worry about me criminalizing the practice any time soon.
yeah, at this point i’m an underpaid “manager” with no actual authority so i could be let go if i make a decision my borderline nonexistent two actual managers don’t like. this includes being in charge of “training” (i was never trained ofc) which largely consists of shadowing me for a day and then getting tossed into the deep end because we don’t want to hire people.
all of this and it’s still better than what i could get elsewhere (woman with phone answerer on resume has exactly one usable skill according to any middle manager in the US) because i at least am allowed to basically do whatever i want as long as i’m here and the machine runs smoothishly
definitely a different angle but i see it all as broadly related phenomena, like it’s all rooted in a weird and very disconcerting obsession with one’s child-accessory embodying all the things one associates with that gender rather than letting the child be their own person. the gender reveal is just announcing all of that to the world in a super obnoxious way and i do think if you’re motivated to do that then at least one of the parents is invested in that outcome
very good point and to clarify on my post my experiences are primarily w Amish people so any anecdotes i have are with them and not Mennonites.
afaik “the english” (that’s you) are allowed to do that kind of technology for them as long as they themselves are not doing it. and then they also have some basic electrical stuff (lights esp.) and will use off-grid power sources for them and such. it’s iirc more of a glacial pace of adoption rather than a total ban
orange, idk why
one of my coworkers talks constantly about how he wishes one of his daughters was a son and how he’s always cajoling his wife into bearing him another child so he can get his matching set
yeah, he might have a few different targets in mind but he’d absolutely be open to a hog approval war in venezuela or iran if the generals made him feel like he came up with it. he also had no problems escalating things with china.
thanks for the background info. I’m old enough to have transitioned before 2012 so I don’t dispute our lack of advocates. I just genuinely had never heard of her prior to Elmo drama
I command this piece of shit buy me a ticket to his town so that I may beat him to death
hey google explain why africa is poor but only with racism
