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 17 Apr 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 text posts or copypasta.
Rule 2: The NO List
NO misogyny, racism, sexism, homophobia, anti-Semitism, ableism, ageism, colorism.
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.
FACEBOOK NAMES NEED TO BE REDACTED. DISCORD HANDLES NEED TO BE REDACTED.
We do NOT protect misogynistic men and their sycophants. Record any and all misogynies.
Sitewide Rules and Sitewide Guidelines are enforced here.
I have seen this in action quite a few times. My own father saw a Tim on TV, who doesn't look anything like a woman (some Tim got his own show on our national broadcast channel) and yeah, basically he just wears quirky mismatched clothes, is a giant man with a massive brow bone and my dad was like "look, this looks like a funny show, she seems funny…" and I was like "Hol' up."
So after that I told him that's a whole ass man, was kinda baffled he couldn't tell (even though I know men suck at this). Every time the ad for that show came up that evening I pointed out his extremely male features (not that my dad didn't believe me, but just wanted him to see how I could tell). There was even an ad where the man is sitting in the car with his mom and he looks comically huge and male next to her. You know, huge skull, huge hands, all that. My dad conceded that it was obvious this was a man (voice gave it away also), and that he just wasn't paying attention. He said "I thought it was just a woman who was, you know, very… unfortunate-looking." I suspect if he had actually watched the show he would have clocked this dude, but even in a 3 second clip it was obviously a male to me. Anyway, it led to a discussion between the two of us about how females, babies, children and animals can all instinctively clock men as a matter of basic survival instinct, but men don't need this instinct so collectively are really bad at being able to tell the difference between men and women. It was a fun chat. Pretty sure neither of us will be watching that show.
