Well, that Youtuber is quite amusing and cleverer than most TRAs. Also loved the turn of phrase employed when explaining why so many males who identify as trans are presenting hyperfeminine. Very useful in understanding that aspect.
However, most of their talking points are misdirecting viewers by not addressing the concerns supposedly being addressed or minimising them by acknowledging that the concerns are valid but we ought not to get worked up about it because either this Youtuber is a good trans who would never say/believe these things or they're just fads that'll blow over.
Never addresses the real concerns:
- male violence and the oppression of women qua females resulting in structural inequalities that many provisions are designed to redress that are now under threat.
half-addresses others:
- abolishing gender is such a huge ask there's no reason not to externalise/internalise opposite-sex stereotypes until that is achieved,
- pretends that womanhood is based on a common experience that all women have (which doesn't exist therefore womanhood can be had by all) while ignoring the fact that what women qua females have in common is that only females can ever have certain experiences such as menstruation, falling pregnant, childbirth, various instances of oppression on the basis of our sex (FGM, child marriage, enforced pregnancy, demotion after baby break, worse health outcomes because the male body is taken as standard and so on) and therefore the only other people to ever experience these things are fellow females.
Around 99% of us menstruate for instance, 80% become mothers, 70% are sexually harassed - the group of women with whom we share many experiences really is huge and so many of us are experiencing similar things that womanhood is indeed a collective experience shaped by being female and all that comes with it but is not dependent on 100% of us sharing the exact same experience.
- posits that all that underlies concerns is disgust for trans people because of a Germaine Greer quote and a few choice quotes taken from a reddit rant about AGPs
- equates trans struggle with gay rights movement (which did not seek to remove rights from another oppressed group)
- reduces female oppression to wolfwhistling and being talked over by men and such like to claim that males who identify as trans experience the same misogyny.
- claims that feminists only ever target males who identify as trans for presenting hyperfeminine but have nothing to say about the Kardashians. Obviously has never actually frequented any feminist space then.
- misunderstands socialisation completely to claim that males who transition in adulthood are thereafter experiencing female socialisation even if they've been socialised male beforehand (except Caitlyn Jenner. I am starting to think they all seem to despise CJ for being so stereotypically AGP).
- thinks not being misgendered offline means males who identify as trans pass. Forgets that most people but especially women will not make any remarks even when we do clock a male - I mean why should we do that in a petrol station for instance?!
And that while clocking a male is a survival skill for females, no matter how they present, the same isn't true for males which is why males are not as good at clocking someone presenting hyperfeminine as male when they've made a serious effort to pass.
Finally, I cannot work out whether this person is disingenuous or really doesn't understand enough feminist theory and the reality of female oppression to think this video actually counters TERF concerns but is very very free with not only using the term but also defending its use as a slur as justified by likening gender critical people to racists.
It takes real effort to analyse this video though because it is superficially plausible and the misdirection works well, especially if you're not actually familiar with feminist thought.
The most important takeaway is that this Youtuber doesn't address and would not agree that it isn't the mere existence of males who identify as trans that we consider a threat to us, it's the ongoing campaign to abolish women's sex-based rights by allowing males to claim membership of our sex group and denying sex - one of the three most important axes of structural oppression alongside race and class - as the basis of female oppression by males.
