Reddit “MtF”- I am truly disturbed

[PocketPenny]

Hi all 👋

I’m new here so not sure if this has already been shared. I’ve always been somewhat gender critical but I stumbled across this on Twitter and it absolutely sent me.

Looking forward to being more active in the movement, Its proved difficult to find other gc feminists at my uni

A comment:

Yeah, really
A cis person should not transition just for social activities or bc they want to look a certain way.
We should live in a society where people can be and do whatever they want. And I understand that practically, that's not always the case.
But transitioning is not a solution for someone cis.

Why is this guy "cis" when "trans" often means exactly this, and the trans community is clear you don't have to have dysphoria? In what way is his magical gender essence "cis"?

Although I thought when I read your OP and the title of the Reddit thread you were going to link to this sadly underappreciated musical wonder of the world:

One of his follow up comments: “I was at my daughter's ballet recital dress rehearsal last night and all I could think was - I will never be like that in a million years.”

🤢🤢🤢

Cuddling up with a stuffed animal? Someone pinching my cheeks? (I'd deck 'em) Skipping???? FFFS!! What ludicrous world do these morons inhabit?

It's totally how women are. All the time. I mean, don't you skip to work? I know I do, after I've put my hair in bunches.

Why do so many wish to emulate literal children?

Watch my YouTube though, it's a treat. It's a music video.

My head is going to explode.

wow 😂

Placemarking to read when im not eating 😉

Yeah, I just skip through my life giggling and preening...!

WTF with the giggling ?

Giggling (outside of small children) tends to be what happens when you've been taught not to take up too much space in the world, not be too loud, not be unladylike, cover your mouth, suppress your feelings, don't be TOO MUCH.

Yet another example of mistaking female socialisation for some sort of innate ladyshit.

wow

There are few words, really!

I can never unread that. 😒
If you want to be a girl, 🧚‍♂️ magic, you are one.
It's all cute laughs, cuddles and pats...
It's such a total pile of poop!!

That topic is a rabbit hole. Holy fuck.

Is that YouTube a spoof?

"I want to live as a woman"

"Ok. What does that look like? What will daily life be like when you're living as you, as you are, just 'as a woman' instead of a man?"

"I want to drink wine and watch movies, get dressed up and go out and have people check me out, cuddle behind me and pet my hair, I want to do my hair and put make up on..."

"You could do all of that right now as a man and it would be great? Why does this involve a transition to do this?"

"But I'm going to giggle, and hug a stuffed toy, and skip and blush and have people pinch my cheeks...."

"Er, I think you're talking about age play here, not transition. There are catalogues where you can get the little dresses and the mary janes, and relationships where you can cosplay this kind of role to your heart's content - women don't actually do this. Even little girls don't actually do this.... "

Why doesn't he just do it? You don't need to transition to another gender to behave like a 50s girly! (I'm sure there are clubs that would facilitate this). And if this is how he thinks real woman act, then he needs some therapy.

That is hideous. And so offensive.

Kenn Dodd No it is not.

I was born female and the only person who has ever cuddled me and petted my hair is my mother. And it’s not gender specific - I cuddle my son and pet his hair.
