“male socialization” is often the rhetorical stick used to force trans women into the “man” category without wrestling with the differences in our experience.
be careful when reading, lest the term become a thought-terminating cliche.
“male socialization” is used to imply that all trans women and all men are evil. It’s 1) assuming a monoculture 2) assuming that you can blame culture and not people/perpetrators and 3) lending support to a flattened discourse.
