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.

Transwoman encouraging sexual abuse and paedophilia - what’s new?
But in all honesty this one actually shocked me a bit. I have a visceral reaction at the thought of my dad making comments like that- it would tip my whole world upside down and make me feel scared and sickened.
There was one time when my dad made a comment about how my breasts weren’t as big as when I was younger (they were actually bigger later - I just stopped wearing a padded bra) and up until that point it hadn’t crossed my mind that he might have noticed or looked or thought anything about my breasts. The context was about whether I had reached a heavy enough weight or not when recovering from an eating disorder. It really upset me and I still feel deeply uncomfortable wearing anything that is close fitting to my boobs around him and I am anticipating in a nauseating way that he might look down.
My dad is a good person and would never abuse me, but that doesn’t change how uncomfortable it all makes me. So the thought of him making an even more explicit comment like in OP’s post is just awful.
I’ve had dreams ever since I was small where my brain is basically fearing a man or even my dad being sexually aggressive towards me. That hasn’t happened in real life but if it did it would literally be a nightmare come true. This all just shows how these scrotes are the very worst type of males and how all their claims of ‘feeling unsafe’ are complete and utter bullshit.
i think most girls experience this moment of traumatic revulsion when they’re told to “cover up” for or by their dads/male family members. i still vividly remember the first time my dad told me to cover my chest. i was 12. i had no tits except whatever tiny bit of fat was starting to accumulate. it made me feel so ashamed of my body.
TIMs will never understand what it’s like to be female.
