yeah... consequences of frequently being called an "attention seeker" back when i was a minor for the crimes of opening up to others. as a result now i live with worrying if i'm bothering others by opening up or expressing my psychological needs.
wish others understood it like you do because come on, we're not fucking robotic tin cans. we're people with emotions. fuck this toxic individualistic nonsense where you get told that "It's nOT otHEr PeOPleS' job" to validate or comfort you 😒

for context i experienced transphobia in an online space somewhere and it really would've helped.
sorry for being a fucking attention seeker.
don't fucking lecture me by saying that i "don't need others to validate me since i'm already a woman" or that "i don't ACTUALLY need others to validate/affirm me, i can do it myself". like yes i can do that but it fucking hits different when someone else says that. especially if it's someone close to you. but apparently it's too hard for some people to tell a trans woman in need that they'll "always be a woman". even if you explicitly fucking request that. even if that someone is your partner who also happens to be a trans woman. apparently according to her i don't need anyone else "to tell me that" because "i'm already a woman" i hate this constant dismissal of what i need. just tell me what i want and i'll get out of your fucking way. makes me wonder what's the point of having friends/partners even is when you can't even depend on rely on others and ALWAYS GOTTA FUCKING DO EVERYTHING YOURSELF to get what you want

Yeah, they're Brazilian. Matter of fact, they said they actually use translators to talk with me and non-portuguese speakers.
So I think these would be very helpful sources for them to look into. Thank you. ^^

Boccher the Yandere 😳
they have been (for whatever reason) studying about wars currently going on in the middle east since apparently brazil doesn't document on this enough, as well as reading up on zionism. they've been seeing "a LoT oF eXtReMiSm FrOm BoTh SiDeS" and assured me that they weren't trying to "question in defense of zionism because they don't know everything about the subject and that they are just a student seeking further information about it" i was already thinking of: - showing them pictures of disgusting zionist settler colonialists sitting on roofs watching IOF genocide and bomb on palestinians live - showing them pictures of the barbarianism committed by the IOF (stuff like them descerating a lifeless palestinian's body? wearing a bra on their genocidal missions? idk, pics of them had surfaced on lemmygrad some months back) - that one video where a zionist settler-colonialist goes "if i don't steal it, someone else will" to a native palestinian - a news article where despite having the deeds to the house, zionist settler colonialists just up and start living on the palestinian's house and kick them out - mention how the IOF murdered palestinian ***babies*** and pulled an US by expanding more than they were permitted to - mention that it's pretty disgusting/insensitive to paint this as a case of "extremism from both sides" when it's clearly about a group of oppressed people being genocided on their own lands finally fighting back against the show of power they've been doing for the past decades. (i wonder if they'd ask "further proof" of this) - show proof about the zionist project's existence being only a recent thing over palestine's, which had existed for a long time (though i wonder if they'd try to pull the bible verse about "israelis" and shit) is there anything else i'm missing here? or am i good to go?

sadly scientists are indicating that bats are closer to primates/humans (somehow) than mice/rats. 😔
otherwise i would've agreed with you.

i'm now curious about what these wild takes they have about non-white trans women like me.
but i pray that i don't have to meet the kind of trans women you mentioned... and that they can eventually see the light and the error of their ways.
unbelievable that some people - despite being oppressed by the system - could be like this.
coincidentally, do these people also happen to be truscum/transmed? or even some "tucutes" are a part of this? because i feel like it'd make sense for truscum/transmed trans people to hold such reactionary views.

It’s partially white ignorance, most whites didn’t see the shit Black women go through; the voices of white women were elevated because of their whiteness so their own concerns came first in the public discourse; Black women were rationally reluctant to raise their own voices in the face of white terrorism;
ok, this explains it
Blackness has been coded as masculine and male by white society to better superexploit their physical labor
...and i'm back to being utterly baffled because i'm not understanding the rationale behind people labeling blackness as "masculine" and whiteness as "feminine". makes zero sense to me to genderize(?) a whole race/group of people like they're a completely different alien species.
increasing the population of Black labor was no longer seen as desirable by white society after the end of slavery
now this gets me wondering, did white people back then try to control the reproductive rights of black people (or even kill black children or force black couples into aborting their children) to achieve this goal?
white women believed they could easier acheive their own liberation by focusing only on themselves and excluding Black women.
...yeah, i'm calling cap on their belief. i don't think white guys could care less if you included black women or not. i don't think they'd still be willing to give you rights or treat you as every other human being.

still plenty of them around today
how??? how are they still able to operate in this era???
how do they reinforce their beliefs???
do they seriously think white guys will happily give them rights just because they're throwing their black sisters under the bus?
i'm so baffled by this, their existence. how can you exclude black women from your space or think they don't deserve rights...
especially in an era where you'd think people would know better. :\

¿¿¿???
this... isn't a competition re: who could get rights first...???
if anything, the white women in question should've been able to show solidarity with the black women because both of them are in a similar situation (neither could vote)
but white supremacist sounds about right
gross... did not expect this

see, i don't understand this.
maybe it's because i'm from the 21st century or just that i don't know much on the matter, but i'm literally clueless on how the fuck could the suffragettes - despite being feminists - not sympathize with black women or be inspired to be anti-slavery after seeing the shit black women go through (granted idk how the lives of black women were when they weren't doing slave labor like their brothers, but still).
like, it's just not registering with me. someone please explain this to me.
/genq. I don't live in the west, but I am curious about this.
