fuck spinster
@nik @tuxcrafting TERF instance, Extremist Feminists (the kind people love to make fun of), but as a bonus they also hate trans people
- Out of 8,000+ users I've witnessed about 2 who genuinely hate trans people. There are a number of trans users on the site (transsexuals, mostly) who want more freedom to have the full conversation about gender.
- The discussion happening on Spinster right now is about porn being linked to sex trafficking, which is a horrible reason to hate it.
@tuxcrafting @alex @Meeper @nik Yeah that’s not my experience with it. So many posts I saw were talking about “men invading womens spaces”. Nah, its a pretty terrible place.
However, I’m pleased that Alex runs the site (because its funny that a man runs the feminist site) and also that it contains them in a nice little box.

> I've witnessed about 2 who genuinely hate trans people.
Never been a huge fan of #Spinster as a whole but I've found some nice users from there more recently. A big problem I'd run into would be the user I try to engage with is sexist and hates men; as soon as I replied to their messages, they'd accuse me of "mansplaining" and block me lol...far more people on that instance hate men than hate trans people
But again, that's not everyone, just my initial experience. My experience with the users is a bit better now.
Trans women ARE men. But nobody hates trans people as much as their supporters tell them they do 🤷🏼♀️
Wanting protection for women’s rights isn’t hating trans identified people 🙄

>nobody hates trans people as much as their supporters tell them they do
lol go tell that to my parents who held me down, emptied my pockets, then threw me onto the ground and told me to fuck off from their house for being trans
they made me homeless for something out of my control, took my access to my own money from my job away from me.
It’s a shame they couldn’t have arranged mental health help before that stage. But you were an adult.
@nik @Meeper @mewmew @tuxcrafting @realcaseyrollins @alex @shebang
No but we have no other context. At the end of the day you can’t force people to affirm the feelings of others. Nobody has to lie for anyone else, that includes parents.
@realcaseyrollins @nik @Meeper @mewmew @tuxcrafting @alex @shebang
If that person is asking you to call them a woman when they are a man you have absolutely the right to say “not in my house!”
@realcaseyrollins @nik @Meeper @mewmew @tuxcrafting @alex @shebang
Only abusers feel you should support them in everything without questioning.
He was 18 , so an adult. An adult choosing to take drugs not really intended for his sex class.
Parents/house owners have every right to decide who lives in their property.
@realcaseyrollins @nik @Meeper @mewmew @tuxcrafting @alex @shebang
Your adult son being gay doesn’t impact on your life. Unless he is asking to have an active sex life on your kitchen table ... Your adult son claiming you be woman asks you to suspend your grasp on reality for their ego.
Two VERY different requests.
@mewmew @Meeper @tuxcrafting @realcaseyrollins @alex @nik @shebang
It’s asking someone to deny reality for ‘feelings’. It’s pathetic and incredibly narcissistic.
Why should any woman have to lie for a man’s ego?
@mewmew @Meeper @tuxcrafting @realcaseyrollins @alex @nik @shebang
if they dress up and act female then it seems more realistic to treat them as such than to pretend they are male.
They are MALE. Born male and will die male.

LOL why tho? I wouldn't treat a cosplayer as the character they're dressed up as, nor would I treat a furry like an animal.
dressing up doesn't change who you are.
