Welcome to TransLogic!
This is the Radical Feminist Circle to document the various illogical, incorrect, misogynistic, racist, and otherwise caustic rhetoric spouted from TRAs themselves.
The lies, misinformation, threats of extreme violence, and the dehumanization of women who dare speak up against this misogynistic, racist and conservatively homophobic ideology are legion. Trans activists' stochastic terrorism has already turned to real world violence against women and children.
Use this Circle to record what they say -In Their Own Words-
Note: this circle is also to showcase the lies, fallacies, and misogyny of men in general, whether or not they are trans-identified. This can include MRAs, TRAs, or just your average Joe.
Rules updated as of 8 Sep 2022.
Posts can be removed by mods for any reason for the health of the community including ones that don’t land or are confusing.
Tip: If you aren't sure where a post should go, check out o/ItsAFetish and o/Radfemmery to decide whether or not those would be better circles to post in.
Rule 1: Appropriate Posts
Screenshots and outside links are allowed. The preferred format is a screenshot as the post with an archived link for the screenshotted information in the comments.
Accepted outside links include: research papers, Imgur links, links to other photo hosting sites, archive links.
For Twitter, please screenshot the tweet/thread rather than linking directly. Utilize the archive function and imgur.
NO direct linking to TikTok, Reddit, YouTube, or misogynistic accounts (i.e. Blaire White or Contrapoints' Youtube channels).
NO genital pictures, including neovaginas and neophalluses. Mastectomies and breast implants will be taken on a case-by-case basis. NO MEDICAL PICTURES OF MINORS ARE ALLOWED
NO text posts or copypasta.
Rule 2: The NO List
NO misogyny, racism, sexism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, ableism, ageism, colorism.
- NO slurs: No n-words, misogynistic slurs (ex: bitch, slut, terf, cis), t-slurs or their derivatives (ex: trunacy, troon, Timmy, Timothy)
NO debating. Take debates to other circles. Do NOT debate tenets of various philosophies here. No derailing or sealioning. No DARVO.
NO posting about minors.
NO template gripes.
NO conversion therapy (aka "genital preferences are transphobic") or other right-wing, conservative talking points allowed.
NO joking about any and all illegal activity that could actually happen
NO talking about downvotes. For the love of all that is female, STOP talking about downvotes. Mods are sick of it. No griping about how many downvotes your comment or post got, or another person's comment or post got. Those comments will be deleted even if they accompany otherwise good commentary.
Rule 3: Redactions
Reddit names do NOT need to be redacted, neither do Chapo Chat names, etc.
Do not redact the Twitter handles of TRAs and misogynists.
Verified users are always fair game.

They continually act like something only counts as true if 100% of all cases match with it all the time. They do this with everything.
What part of this is supposed to be the gotcha? The fact that when you have incredibly scant remains left that show some ambiguity, you will at times need to make an educated guess based on what's there in no way negates that the living person those remains belonged to had an essential, biological, immutable sex...or that said person's life was shaped dramatically by how gender roles were applied based on that sex. Just like if human remains are too degraded to extract DNA, it doesn't mean the living person didn't have genes.
Hehe, forensic investigators are sometimes at a loss to determine whether a murder occurred, this proves that murder isn’t a binary state of affairs :)
That just makes archeologists look stupid and calls into question assumptions made about women’s roles and activities in ancient cultures based on archaeological evidence.
Pelvic bones are usually different shapes between males and females. Width is only part of what goes into determining sex. There are always going to be ambiguities out there, but thanks for reducing all of archaeology to "lol we got no clue duh look at comb".
Exactly. And the technology is only going to get better from here.
I'm currently watching Bones again and if a tv show from the early 2000s shows how the sex of a person can be determined from things like a skull alone, these archaeologists of the 2020s better step up their game.
(Yes I know a tv show is not a reliable source of scientific information)
Hello Kitty necklaces are essential, immutable and binary
Lol <3
Men have historically never combed their hair. Good to know.
Quick, someone tell the ancient Vikings who both bathed and combed their hair!
This was also my thought.
If sex isn't biological and immutable, why is she acting like archeologists can get the sex wrong? Her premise admits that the person had an objective sex; just that long into the future, there is the (slim) potential for an archeologist to incorrectly surmise what that objective sex was.
To my understanding it's virtually impossible for archeologists to determine the exact age a person died from their skeleton alone. This doesn't mean the person wasn't that age. And yes, archeologists probably would use context clues to help pinpoint the person's age, even though they could potentially be misleading.
I think she's really optimistic if she thinks humanity will survive for another 1000 years.
The highly evolved cockroach archaeologists will see the hello kitty necklace and say “yep this one’s an AGP”

TERFs: Sex is essential, biological and immutable
Archaeologists: We tried to sex the skeleton by measuring the pelvis but that isn't surefire so we did some isotopic analysis and the results were inconclusive, anyway it was buried with a comb so it's probably a girl skeleton :)
