Shout out to Minneapolis, MN for being so trans accepting that they have a large enough community that they can make the list the right way

Ironically, they’re treating trans women the same way they treat cis women—as sexual objects who don’t deserve bodily autonomy.

They can't get off if it's mainstream, they need their fetishes to be taboo, and preferably illegal. So, they make it illegal, then rub themselves raw over it.

Huh, and here I thought we didn't like any of the same things.

You see the performers as people. They see the performers as fuckmeat. You are not the same.

Very good point. I also see now that this is only focused on search terms for MtF folk. I'm an equal opportunity gooner, I enjoy some fine-ass FtM peeps in porn too. I have a feeling they don't.

Everyday I find myself completely baffled by human behavior. There are days I legitimately do not think I'm the same species.

If I hate someone, I genuinely hate 1athem. Like Gary that I worked with in 2003. 20+ years later, and I STILL think he's one of the biggest 1assholes I ever met.

1At NO POINT do I want Gary porn. Maybe Gary death porn, but not sexual porn. I'd like to see him walk into a walk-in closet, when a bunch of spinning blades shoot out and cut him into tiny dice sized cubes.

But these people claim to hate trans folks, but then go home and beat their meat to them? Where's the hate then??? If you're going to hate someone, truely hate them because they stand for everything you dispise. Otherwise, you're just saying your own values mean nothing to you, and you shouldn't be taken seriously at face value.

And in this particular case, why even bother hating trans people at all? Just accept trans people for who they are, and bust all the nuts you want without being a hypocrite.

Aside from kids and animals, there aren't many kinks I'd look down on people for, as long as they're just true to themselves. I may not like the idea of licking feet, but if thats your thing, own up to it! Be yourself!

Question:
What's up with those 1s in front of your 'a's in paragraph 2?

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 26 points 1 week ago

Typos. I was walking while typing this, and my finger must have touched the keyboard a few times.

The only exposure Republicans have to the outside world is through porn

Yeah, that's so unbelievably not fucking surprising. A weird amount of harassment I've gotten for being trans has been kinda (or occasionally extremely) sexual. Also the redder the area the more I get street harassment.

ETA: Oh upon reading the article, the city I'm thinking of (Lexington, KY, I basically couldn't take a walk without being catcalled there) is in the top 10 cities.

And yeah, anti trans bigotry is interesting because it seems to be an alliance of exterminationist bigotry ("x people should not exist or should be hidden and we should work towards that goal", examples of targeted groups include disabled people, Jewish people, and gay people) and supremacist bigotry ("x people are our lessers and must be forced into their place beneath us", anti black racism is the classic example). You have plenty of transphobes who just want us gone no matter what, but you also have quite a few who think our place is as discreet sex workers and are mad that we are insisting we deserve to live in society as equals and do whatever work we want. They were fine with us as prostitutes, but not as mechanics, as shameful side pieces but how dare we say we deserve to be spouses.

That perspective of us is deeply entwined in the insistence that anything pertaining to us is sexual. They look at us and reduce us solely to the lens of sex then condemn us for it. Then when some of us internalize that our only value as people is as sex objects they point and say "see look, we told you".

Everything going on with the femboy heatmap is incredible. All the red and blue areas of the southwest doing the handshake meme. The population cachment areas of fucking Scranton and Pueblo of all places going all in for some reason. The smooth cultural gradient in Cascadia.

It's also in the wrong article because femboys aren't trans, but it is funny to contrast it with the map for 'shemale' (eugh)

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

femboys are just trendy the past few years. like incest porn was awhile back.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 24 points 1 week ago (7 children)

They don't even hide it, the Manosphere paradoxaly loves femboys.

I mean we've seen Alex Jones with a "Naughty tbabe" tab open on his phone.
