Forcefem and "Forcemasc" (cw discussion of SA, kink, transmisogyny, reclaimed slurs)
@YKantRachelRead I don't agree fullyI agree with first part, its just true history
But I don't trully see how forcemasc is in on itself transmisogynist
Some afab people, while this problem is not AS big as with amab forcefem, are also subjected to ridicule when they seem masculine, they can be laughed at for something as ridiculous as having unshaved legs, or being tomboy, or whatever.
And forcemasc could be used to cope with that.
Now yes, like I've said, I agree that feminization of "men" (where its either cis men or trans women) is usually a much bigger issue, which forcefem was reclaiming.
But forcemasc still can reflect in some part similar thing.
And even if forcemasc is an invention, tbh so what, I don't really see how that actually harms trans women in the end. How does forcemasc really marginalize further.
History about where those came from is important, but I don't see how forcemasc impacts forcefem reception at all?
And tumblr thing, honestly idk using tumblr as an argument just seems weird to me because that (like most social media) platform is always gonna be filled with biases and disagreements and mods that suck, if moderation of tumblr is transmisogynist how is that relevant in the forcemasc thing in any way.
I don't wanna fight, I hope you don't read this as an attack or anything, but I really don't see how forcemasc impacts forcefem or transfems.
