Wow, I forgot that was a thing. Its interesting just how different trans people were 10 years ago. They desperately wanted to pass and blend in as women. They actually didn't always use their genitalia during sex. They didn't make all these insane demands and try to re-write biology.
Goes to show how much the AGP lifestyle has taken over the trans community, because all of these points and many others are polar opposite.
They've always been like this. There are examples of TIMs harassing lesbians as far back as the '70s.
Maybe some, but I definitely remember when it wasn't like this.
I too remember when trans people hated their genitalia. How did we move from that to "women have penises"?
I had a textbook TIM as the LGBT counsellor at my college in 2010. He was the usual stuff, ex-military, sending pictures of himself to the girls at college, once gave one of them a bullet vibrator 😬
The landscape has definitely changed, but I think these people were always there but have been emboldened.
It was always a lie, I feel like they just said that at a time when they knew people would feel sorry for them and it would lead to more TiM-acceptance in women's spaces.
Many TiMs (like men in general, obviously) absolutely get off on talking about their dicks, so even if they said "I'm so ashamed of my little girlpenis uwu~" it was just a way to get women to talk about penis, basically fishing for sexualized attention.
"I can chop it off for you for free if you sign this paper which waives your ability to sue me."
Remember when the line was "and transwomen are so dysphoric about their penis you won't even know it's there! They won't try to fuck you with it, they hate that part of themselves!" Such horseshit, their goal was always to penetrate lesbians.
