     dysphoria can come from the distress of not having a choice in the matter of being seen as female; hearing the “wrong” pronouns certainly doesn’t help dysphoric ppl when they’re taught by gendies that pronouns matter more than they do in terms of gender/how ppl see you

     once you try to honestly engage with gendies it becomes painfully clear that they do not think women are oppressed. even if they do point to some kind of oppression, it is usually like "men say nasty things on tinder" and like five of them will say "child marriage"

     it’s funny when a gendie tells me to go outside as if people outside believes in infinite genders and males becoming women

     Gendies are so American/Western centric.
     Y'all in the quotes saying "womanhood has never included you, let it go"
     Well explain fgm? Explain breast ironing? Mutilation done to women in the name of ritual, cos we're believed to hold special powers in our vagina. Explain that too!!
