Remember when we didn’t need a Venn diagram for sex?
Remember when Venn diagrams made at least some sense? Lol
Remember when Venn diagrams made information clearer?
Remember when people knew the difference between Venn and Euler diagrams?
This reminds me of doctors in the 15th century who thought women just had inverted penises. That's essentially what we've returned to.
So there's no issue then calling TIMs misogynistic, fetishist, male crossdressers then righty? It's just DESCRIPTIVE
The amount of men who have dedicated hours of their time to argue something that doesn’t affect them is staggering. Like literally a playbook on mansplaining.
This more than anything proves that they see TIMs as men. I’ve witnessed it in my own friend groups; one of them transes and their biggest defenders are their male relatives and friends. Accusations of sexual assault that the transition was suspiciously timed around? No one yells louder about “respecting her pronouns” than these males, especially in the faces of the victims.
That’s one of the things that peaked me. A stupid Facebook group started up during COVID, full of progressive wokies plugging their OnlyFans, and someone was warning of a local spiritual guru/yoga instructor who had a thing for assaulting his female students. Immediately she was undermined by his abrupt NB coming-out and treated like scum for “misgendering” the penis that hurt her. It was immediately clear who was on whose side and I wanted none of it.
LMAO I can't believe that dude is serious with this. He's really fucking serious lolllllllll
This is like the worst diagram I have ever seen. It implies that there are "people with a uterus" that are not cis women, trans men and afab enbies. What are those other "people with a uterus"?
It is embarrassingly bad. It’s like someone is making an intentionally confusing parody.
Sorry, it should have said that this includes 'people with an imaginary uterus'.
This is really funny. Of course he’s called Brian and of course he looks like that. He’s so earnest - “hey folx, have y’all heard of these things called Venn diagrams ??”
I like his "specific, and not exclusionary" comment. You can't do both.
Their whole ideology is filled with contradictions like this
Fremdschämen (reflexive, informal)- to feel secondhand embarrassment; to feel ashamed about something someone else has done; to be embarrassed because someone else has embarrassed themselves and doesn't notice
These people will be shocked when nobody respects any of their opinions in the future.

I'm pretty sure that's not how venn diagrams work.
It's times like this I almost which I had a Twitter account so I could make suggestion after suggestion to improve the trans-inclusivity of his Venn diagram (one suggestion for each new diagram he produces, of course), just to see how much more convoluted it can get.
Okay, I’m ready for global warming to take us down and for something better to rise from the ashes.

There are a ton of hilarious replies. I think some of them might be cut off by the archive link, but the actual twitter thread is full of them.
Okay I did not expect to laugh out loud this much today. Thank you for your service.
The "what the fuck" one is most helpful.
