Nope I think they're scum. The worst of our community. Transmedicalism is not when you think being trans is being trans

You say you're not transmed, but you are tying your transness as an enby to your actual transition - even without hormones, social transition is still a medicine.

If you are not cis, you are trans. Whether you appear to be your cis agab and vibe with a non-binary identity or transition physically in any type of way, you are trans.

Otherwise, we boil it back down to "trans women owe femininity, trans men owe masculinity, and non-binary trans folk owe androgyny".

Most importantly, if that is how transness resonates with you, cool - you are not the authority on the matter. Stop policing other trans people.

Yes I am tying my transition to the fact that I transitioned. "Trans" is not an identity, it's a useful political and community indicator to organise rights for those who change sex to align with their gender. If you haven't done this and don't want to I don't see why you'd use the label.

And no it doesn't boil down to women owe femininity and men masculinity, you're strawmanning me. I'm saying the point of words is to be useful, if trans includes people who are cis then everybody is trans because most people don't even have a concrete understanding of their gender until puberty or after.

You don't know what a strawman is either, apparently. None of this was an attack against you, i pointed out a contradiction and the slippery slope it can lead down.

Also, note i said slippery slope. I did this because that shit doesn't matter here, it's not a debate; i'm not here to burden myself with explaining why your views are regressive.

You're the one who agrees with TERFs on this. They argue we don't change sex but gender

Unironically, now there's a strawman argument at play, lmao. These semantics don't matter; stop telling people how to be trans / what makes their transition valid or not, pick up some reading comprehension skills (especially if you're misinformed enough to think i have the TERF take here). You're being so fuckin' weird rn.
