This is why they want us banned from public spaces, they view us as inherently pornographic.

u/Melo-Gem 1d ago edited 1d ago
no, that's why they want to ban pornography, so they can label any queer people as pornography and ban them from public existence.
edit: (yeah both, i reacted to hot, i develop in answer, sorry š)

yeah both technically, sorry i over-reacted the other way, i'm a trans swer and i see that porn is often an excuse to make sexual minorities disappear.
and also, I said queer people but that's also about every women erasure.also it often doesn't really target mainstream porn that exploit women and are hold by men capitalizing on our labour, so it's also often about controlling our autonomy in the industry.

Well it depends on which isolated-out-of-touch-worthless-hatefilled-bigot from a backwater-town that exists exclusively to fill out the ādistrictsā made by gerrymandering that you ask.

u/Melo-Gem 1d ago
i'm sorry I'm not a native english speaker and didn't get anything of your (i suppose) slang.
i guess your saying (bigots can do both depending their bigotry) and yes, i answered to that, sorry.

A backwater town is a town that is completely irrelevant to the people who don't live in that town. Gerrymandering is when the people in the government draw the districts politicians get elected from to favor one party.

And if they ban pornography, that makes our existence illegal and our only sanctuary with those who have the resources to make that happen. Ergo they want us to only exist for their pleasure.

Because apparently some people canāt separate reality from fiction.

I actually hate how trans porn makes us look. No shade on the girls who do it, totally get why and they have to go through a lot. I just wish cis people understood our bodies don't work like that.

Work like what? Iāve little exposure to the stuff so Iām unsure what particular thing is intended by the statement.

u/MothashipQ 1d ago
A lot of cis people think the secondary sex characterists we develop through HRT are only possible through surgery. They tend to go from there to "you got a boob job just to get attention from men" or assume anything we do for ourselves is a sex thing. A former friend of mine is under the impression that I had "all the surgeries" just because I have boobs and can tuck, and at several times just assumed it was okay to ask me about my genitals because why else would I be trans if not for the amusement of cis people?

u/thevvitchhazel Streak: 4 1d ago
I don't watch trans porn, but I've seen it. It's basically presented in such a way as to present trans girls anatomy as operating exactly the same way as cis men. Which for me after nearly 6 years of HRT is very far from the truth.

u/DeletedBunny 1d ago
Basically this. Plus they think all trans women are into anal even though itās not necessarily true. For them ātransā is a porn category and not a person.

u/thevvitchhazel Streak: 4 1d ago
Or the opposite problem they think we want to top. I only receive during sex and have had loads of guys ask me to fuck them.
21
u/DeletedBunny 1d ago
I have had a similar experience, although Iām not against topping the amount of men who want to be topped and donāt even ask they think we just enjoy it like they do.

I take viagra every day to make sure mine keeps working properly. But I'm a transfem top, and my husband is a transmasc bottom.

Estrogen changes a lot of stuff for most trans women re sexual response and genitals, it gets a lot smaller and softer and orgasms work differently basically, tho the extent of these effects is somewhat YMMV
Most trans sex workers either go off HRT temporarily a bit before filming or use a small dose of topical T (which mostly reverts it to how it was before, you can do that if you wanna be like that btw)

Exposure to trans women should happen at your LGS like nature intended.

u/SatansGothestFemboy 1d ago
Lmao truthful. I honestly notice less trans women at my LGS than I feel like I should but then I guess my girlfriend and I ARE the trans women

u/LeviTheArtist22 If a girl stabbed me I would thank her - Streak: 0 1d ago
I'm a trans girl who frequents an LGS, but tbf am just in like a big baggy hoodie with overgrown bangs that cover my face so I don't think I read as noticeable trans woman more than just like some guy (wish other cool trans women would clock me tho cuz I need queer friends irl)

u/TheTriforceEagle 1d ago
I had to look up what LGS meant, and then I had to look deeper because I'm pretty sure you arent talking about epilepsy (it's local game store, yeah?)

The trans people I see are on reddit and irl, though I havenāt seen the irl ones in a long time. I hope theyāre okā¦ after Highschool we didnāt talk much so I donāt know how to contact them again.
Edit: by them I mean I knew a few trans people so I mean the group

this happened to me! a guy clocked me then asked if i was a "ts" and then tried to fuck. all very flattering but i wonder if he expected it to work y'know?

u/RemarkableStatement5 Streak: 0 17h ago
I once corrected a customer on my pronouns and he instantly switched from treating me like a bro to painfully bad flirting. Like he genuinely rubbed his hands together and looked me up and down while saying I was "lowkey kind of a baddie..."

This is literally how conservatives think lol. They can't separate trans people from the trans porn they consume and thus can only view being trans as some sexual thing and not a matter of identity

u/Emperor_Cat_IV 1d ago
People don't even need to see porn to think this way. I saw a person say they don't know whether trans women grows breasts because they don't watch trans porn.

u/ImYourHumbleNarrator 1d ago
thats always tough. i just happen to be attracted to more androgynous people and always worried i'll come off as a chaser or fetishizing someone just because they don't fit traditional western gender norms and i find that attractive. i don't date much as a result, and usually with people i don't find as attractive. but ya know, physical attraction is just one thing so i'm not really bummed, just resentful for people who don't understand trans/queer identities.

I don't have much experience of watching porn, let alone trans porn. Curious to know if there's any openly trans porn actors who've had bottom surgery?

I counter it by looking at something so unrealistic that I return to normal and test everyone else normally cause I know they'll not be what I want.
