Welcome to the itsafetish circle! We document examples of fetishism (primarily autogynephilia) within the trans community and discuss implications from a feminist perspective! We typically use Blanchard's typology of transsexualism as our framework.
The Rules:
Mods may remove comments and posts at her own discretion to help ensure that this community is conducive to being women-centered and maintains a healthy amount of critical analysis & intellectual curiosity. The following rules are in addition to the site wide rules.
1. Be mindful of your words. Do not promote bigotry, encourage violence, or use dehumanizing language.
2. Keep posts on-topic and in spirit with the circle. Flair posts appropriately. Use archive links for social media posts.
3. Content involving or by minors is not allowed.
4. When linking to Google docs, put a warning in title, so that users know prior to clicking.
5. No explicit pornographic material.
6. Censor images that use real women without their consent. Take a generous approach regarding blurring / censoring people who are unrelated to the displays of fetishism.
This totally reads like a truthlighting bait post from a deep-cover terf (where "truthlighting" is a word I made up right now for... like gaslighting, but planting the truth). But #nope, we got a real live self-awarewolf here
Truthlighting is a great term! I used to post on r/gendercynical with little truthlight lanterns. I always got upvoted there too, it's a very confusing subreddit...
Lol they aren't the brightest. The place is filled with ppl who literally think they can magically change sex
I'll have to go look and see what /r/gendercynical is about (I've never rlly used reddit outside of a couple subs strictly focused on hobbies/activities/languages)
Good luck! I always go in there with an open mind, hoping one of them might have some logic I have yet to explore or something. But, nope. The mental gymnastics they employ is hella confusing to follow. They lean on logical fallacies for their arguments which makes it hard to understand what they take issue with. It is a strange place for internet babies with no critical thinking skills.
That could describe any of the trans subs ahah
Is this one different from the others in some way? or will I just be gawking at more of the usual train wrecks and rotting word salads😅?
It's word compost there. They don't interact with all our posts, they have some kinda byline that their mission is to point out how we aren't feminists or something. They know they can't interact with all our posts or else r/gendercynical would be a peaking machine. So they cherry pick posts where they see us discussing race or sexism and then they say: "this is just thinly veiled __________" insert: racism, ableism, denialism, etc. Nothing is ever interacted with on face value and the post has to supposedly deal with a conflict in feminism (in their opinion) - which is also why they have days and days between posts. Their options are: twist our words and make up hidden meanings or refuse to interact because our post makes them feel dysphoric.
Ohhhhhh so it's like a stalkery Ovarit peanut gallery? My word. I'll be checking this out soon🤪
It's hilarious
