RaveGetting others to admit that trans is a fetish
It’s a small victory, but I’m at least feeling slightly justified in the little steps I’ve been able to make.
My TIM brother has been causing more trouble the past few days, and I’ve had to give warnings to people to watch out for him after he was evicted from his last place to stay and ended up at my parents. I did some investigating as well, and found his latest Reddit account. The last few posts, leading up to the day he was evicted (knowing a week ahead of time that he would be), were all in a diaper fetish page where he made “tell me what to do/control me” posts. Absolutely disgusting and repulsive, but he’s already been vocal about it to people so it’s not shocking. There were also posts where he ranted about not being able to keep a job or have a place to live, and how it was everyone else’s fault because he’s trans and has mental illnesses.
All I had to do was tell people to look at that account, and mention that he likes to use anything he can to get a victim complex. Piece it together, and he doesn’t actually care about being trans. He’s using it for his near-pedophilic fantasies, and getting off on dressing like a little girl in public, while being able to cry about how the world hates him and discriminates against him.
Not one person has been able to say otherwise, and most people I know that used his trans name and “she” pronouns for him has coincidentally stopped now.
It’s only a little bit of progress in making people around me open their eyes a little more, but I’m hoping things keep going from there! Most of them have only seen trans propaganda online, rather than how it actually affects people and what it does in real life—Him and his “trans community” are definitely a good example of what TIMs really are and want.
To be fair and honest - there are a lot of men on the childfree reddit sub. (I've also seen trans people there, fishing for validation .. ugh!) Parents do get called breeders, and there are terms for children that I'd rather not repeat, so it's not all daisies and roses. But given the subject of conversation, I'm not mad when discussions get heated. I've read your other comment, and for me you really nailed it. If mothers are so happy with their life, why are they so mad the second childfree women talk about their lifes? I've seen other users here argue that even calling ourselves "childfree" is fundamentaly wrong.
I really don't get it. I don't want children and I get shit for it all the time. Why am I not allowed to be annoyed about that? And talk about being annoyed? Why are only mothers allowed to talk about their struggles? Instead I have to listen to constant arguments that I'll regret not having children, when I'm old and dried up(!!!) and becoming a mother is the true meaning of life for every woman. - I'm happy for everyone who feels that way. Enjoy your life and let me enjoy mine. Why is it impossible for mothers and childfree women to co-exist?
Well that's fair, men are disgusting about everything.
Also you're right, mothers say that type of misogynistic stuff to us all the time but if we mention it we're the misogynists somehow.
