It may look like I “hate” trans people, but in fact, I don’t. I actually have a lot of sympathy towards those who suffer within the confines of gender. What I do hate is how the transmovement is adhering to and validating a patriarchal ideological foundation based on the oppressive hierarchical concept of gender. I hate that it is reinforcing something so anti-woman without even an ounce of self-reflection. I hate that the transmovement has become a war against women, and not a fight to be free of gender roles. I hate how it reduces “woman” to a feeling, forbids us from speaking of our biology, how it denies a biological reality between men and women, how it pushes lesbians to sleep with dicks or otherwise ostracizing them, I hate how it takes away our words to name our oppressors and the very basis of our oppression - our sex,- but I also hate what it does to confused young people, and even children.



I hate that it tells adults, teenagers, and children who do not fit into rigid sex stereotypical boxes that they must just conform to the opposite binary, or even see themselves as a split version of either, by calling themselves “they”/”their”. I hate that it tells them to take damaging puberty blockers and hormones that can cause them serious health risks while they are not even old enough or properly informed to understand the long-terms effects of these choices. I hate how it recruits them in its witch hunt against women and pushes its agenda on them unknowingly. I hate that it validates their feelings of being born wrong and tells them that “yes. You are indeed wrong”. Instead I want to tell the confused that no wonder you feel wrong in your own body; you live in a society that tells you that as either a female or a male, you are by nature the complete opposite of each other. Society splits our likes/dislikes, interests, hobbies, personality traits, behavior, etc., into a rigid dichotomy. You are told that females - girls and women - inherently love pink, purple, and red colors, that we love make-up and the act of beautifying ourselves but that men do not, that girls and women are inherently nurturing, empathetic, sensitive, emotional, weak.. and even inferior. Boys and men learn early enough that they must emotionally castrate themselves, be strong, confident, and ‘manly’, that they are naturally logical, brave, and rational, that ‘real’ men like sports, the outdoors, and physical activity, that they are the doers, the innovators, the explorers, the CEOs, and worst of all, that men are naturally aggressive and sexually uncontrollable.

So if you do not rigidly fit into this gender binary, you must be born wrong, right? When in fact, something is wrong with society. It is wrong for telling you that YOU are wrong. You can have whatever interests or hobbies that you like, you can wear, think and feel any way you want, without it meaning you were born in the wrong body with the wrong brain.



I want to tell all of you that you are fine and lovely just the way you are, and if anything, unique, for not fitting into an oppressive system of stereotypes. That you have a fundamental right to be exactly who you are without having to surgically alter yourself or fearing for your life.

As a society, we cannot call ourselves truly progressive until the day comes when we can cross the limitations of gender and still get to call ourselves men and women, without having to change and mutilate the very body that society disapproves of – because on that day it will mean that patriarchy itself is crumbling, that the gender prison is being torn apart, and that women no longer will be oppressed on the basis of their sex. But that day is not likely to come any day soon, but I certainly will fight for every inch of it in the hope that it does. So if I seem angry, this is why.
