banning hrt is a part of rape culture, its absurd that this connection is not implicit at this point, its absurd that we have to even spell it out and its absurd that cis women dont see this as part of shard struggle around bodily autonomy.
there is the direct control of bodily autonomy, which is the most obvious part
and there is the fact that the people who specifically fetishize trans women are not going anywhere, they just want us, our autonomy, our sense of any mutual support or personal dignity, our capacity to self-organize, and our existence in daily life to be reduced, to the point that we are back to being either entirely dehumanized objects for sexual consumption and violent destruction or completely and entirely dependent on them for all access to transition care.
I have already seen the old conversations about how easy it is to manipulate a trans woman into doing whatever a man says because she is so broken down as a person come back in chaser spaces. This shit is not a threat for them its a welcome sea change
people are to goddamn ready to just see their obvious words about being threatened by trans people and just not see the implicit sexually coercive nature of the threat behind whats happening
this post inspired by trying to make a list of what my asks for solidarity from cis women would be and losing my mind at how much basic basic basic ground there is to cover (which, btw, if people have things to throw on a list like that, dm me)
