A counter to another TERF lie

This is from my coming weekly news posts, but I consider it significant enough to separate: 

““Female Socialisation” is a Transphobic Myth - Devon Price”   https://drdevonprice.substack.com/p/female-socialization-is-a-transphobic-myth-97747d1c7fb2   ““Female socialization” is a really common TERF talking point. Trans-exclusionary folks love to claim that since many transgender women didn’t experience a conventional, cis-woman “girlhood,” they must not know how sexism really operates. They must have had it easier. And since TERFism lauds feminine suffering as a sign of moral virtue, any woman who didn’t experience a traumatic “girlhood” must be suspect. Entitled. Predatory. A faker.   Unfortunately, it’s not only trans-exclusionary people who think this way. Many trans allies (and many trans folks ourselves!) still dabble in the idea that a person’s gender assignment at birth determines how they grew up and who they are at their core”   This is a brilliant article - and fits in to other articles about the varieties of “female” socialisation which include strength for rural/farm women, service in the military, and other variations throughout history that show the superficiality of current neochristian oppression  

and while I am at it, there is  also    

“Revisiting “Female” v. “Male” Autism [CC]”   https://youtu.be/KkeoxlqR2WI?si=udhF0MbXhkS9HLPz   An excellent video  

 

If they are of any use of interest, the activism information links from my former news posts are available in this post.

Remember: we need to be more human being rather than human doing, and all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering”.
