Genuinely boggles my mind how trans women are the only people who are never considered in the ways we are depicted or discussed. The fact that SOME trans people are gender nonconforming doesn’t change the fact that the vast majority of trans women aren’t.

Many trans women have a complicated relationship to masculinity, but if you’re not a trans woman, is it really your place to use trans women to explore gender fluidity? I think it’s so much safer to base your portrayals of trans women on actual visible people to avoid misrepresenting communities and to reassure them that you’re doing them justice.

There’s a reason you never see trans women artists drawing trans women with full ass bushy beards

The reality is that all of us exist in a context where transmisogyny is rampant and there is no way to divorce singular acts, innocent or not, from these existing circumstances. Imagine making a post about someone of another race going “there’s no one way to be asian!” some struggles are just not yours to explore.
