@maymaym Another myth: "All ppl w penises are men" also intersects w. this form of rape culture rhetoric in so many transmisogynistic ways.

@wanderingpirate Yeah. I alluded to that in 3 words: "—and have penises?" I just…sat w/it for a bit & didn't have the energy for more words.

@maymaym *nods* Saw your allusion to transphobia in the rhetoric. :) I just wanted to specifically highlight the transmisogyny in it too.

@maymaym I'm thinking how to frame my shares to avoid that...but some will misinterpret regardless. System trains us to decontextualize.
