I can’t handle talking to a wall… it always happens. I try to do the slightest thing to help talk about cissupremacy and some cisscum radscum fuck appears to say that there’s no such thing as cis privilege…
Yeah, we’re just making all this shit up. Brandy didn’t really die blocks from where I live… the whole Trans Day of Remembrance list is a hoax…
I can’t even…
Did this cisscum piece of shit seriously just say there’s no such thing as cis privilege?
Or that trans* people are included in the gay community?
Yet they don’t realize that their denial of cis privilege in itself proves that cis people are not a part of the gay community??
How can you possibly say there’s no such things as cis privilege??? People don’t get jobs because they’re trans or, if they do, they might very well lose it for the same reason. PEOPLE FUCKING DIE FOR BEING TRANS FAR MORE THAN GAY PEOPLE DIE FOR BEING GAY! The gay community tells us we’re not welcome, the queer community excludes trans* womyn. We don’t get access to health care; we die in ERs that refuse to help us; we’re killed by cops who supposedly protect us.
I have no reason to listen to you anymore and I seriously, truly hope that you die in a fire.
Oh look, my first death threat. Nice. Right along with the denial of homophobia. Yes, yes, I’m totally wrong, my lesbian self is so incredibly privileged, I’m making it up when I talk about the police brutality I’ve experienced, I have so much privilege as a female-bodied woman, I’m just a privileged piece of shit who couldn’t possibly have any real empathy or interest or desire to support the trans people who I consider part of my community. I’m just an evil little bigot who thinks that gay teens deserve support. Yup, that’s me.
Not a death threat, good reading skills for a professor.
Also, I’M GAY TOO! I’M NOT DENYING HOMOPHOBIA YOU FUCKING DOUCHE!
YOU’RE THE ONE WHO IS DENYING PRIVILEGE! YOU LITERALLY SAID THERE IS NO CIS PRIVILEGE! YOU ARE CLAIMING THAT THE SHIT THAT TRANS* PEOPLE DEAL WITH IS A LIE AND NOW YOU’RE ACCUSING ME OF DOING THAT TO YOU??
Also, I am just as female bodied as you. fucker.

So tell me why we’re focusing on gay suicide?
The statistics here are incorrect. Transgender people as a whole, and gay and lesbian teenagers, have nearly the same rate of suicide risk - 41% to 40.3%. Please don’t think one group is more important than another…both groups needs help and support.
(Hey, Check Dat Privilege, still want to argue that people understood you “didn’t mean” that trans people were more important that gay and lesbian youth?)
I think that number you’ve posted is incorrect. I’m reading the data in the link you provided and it ranges WILDLY, with the number you’ve provided being the absolute highest percentage found in any study.
Be sure to check the type of study. The 40.3% is from the study that is closest to the methods used to get the statistics for the trans population. The difference is not that huge.
Regardless, the fact is that there is no effort to talk about trans* suicide while gay suicide has celebrities endorsing ad campaigns.
On top of that, trans* womyn (especially TWOC) are disproportionately the targets of violent hate crimes. Yet nobody is doing a thing to help us.
There is no denying that trans* people, especially trans* womyn (especially TWOC), suffer more deaths at the hands of cissupremacy than the gay community suffers at the hands of homophobia.
I kind of thought that trans people were part of the gay community.
Throw in the many facts about how we have so much less legal protection than gay people and the picture becomes quite clear. Cis people have privilege over trans* people REGARDLESS OF ORIENTATION.
This is something I disagree with you on. Particularly for women, there is no “cis” privilege.Am I saying that makes us more important? No. However, I AM saying that we are a group who is suffering more and getting WAY WAY less support and attention.
“Suffering more.” Yes, when you say this you really are saying that one group is more important. You are saying that one group deserves more help - which is exactly what Check Dat Privilege said when they created this post. And now their misinformation and that hateful message are going to keep spreading the idea that gay and lesbian youth are not suffering as much. What a wonderful thing to be putting out there.

I mean, you are literally fucking saying that a trans* womyn and a cis womyn, all other things being equal, HAVE THE EXACT SAME LEVEL OF PRIVILEGE!
What. The. FUCK!

reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally need to think about their experience with academia again.
don’t get me wrong, I’m about to graduate. I wouldn’t trade these last four years for anything. but that doesn’t stop me from being critical so that we make sure to not continue the name nuances of racism into our future progression of thought. The people who wrote racist literature of the past are the people who decide what literature is worthwile, are the people who established institutions, are the people who taught our professors, who are the people who are the gate keepers for literature now.
i’m not about to just sit down and think we’re just going to make steps to progress without actually saying anything about the system.
How could someone possibly suggest that there isn’t racism in academia?
Wow… to actually compare my use of the word douche to your transmisogynistic bullshit… and to suggest that I’m just misinterpreting… REALLY??
Who are you?
WHY are you?
Die… just fucking die… please please please fucking die.
volefleshe replied to your post: The image was insulting Kourtney Kardashian. Plain and simple. Living with a chip on your shoulder and attacking every person who says something you disagree with isn’t going to get you very far in life. Call me whatever you want. The only person being offensive is you. Making personal attacks based off of nothing. You’re acting like the very people you have so much rage and disdain for.
Dear cis people: Thinking wont kill you. Talking might. So shut up and figure this shit out. Calling someone ugly because they resemble a trans woman is offensive. It. Is. Offensive.
