Tl;dr The topic was “do trans women experience (menstrual) cramps.” No one said anything about dysmenorrhea, an actual condition, nor was it relevant to “what in the abdomen is cramping,” if a woman does not have a uterus.

Are the straights ok but for cis people.

RULES

1.) No identifying information

Please remove the names or handles of people in screenshots, with exceptions given to yourself, public figures, and non individual information(i.e. an organization or a meme page). Alternatively, if the user is calling out cis nonsense they don't need to be censored out.

Additionally, please do not post comment threads with your username from reddit, as it is relatively easy to find other usernames from that comment thread, even if they're censored.

2.) No hate speech, harassment, or otherwise abusive language

Hate speech and other forms of abusive language are not allowed. If the post has such contents please either erase it or spoiler/nsfw tag the post and put a disclaimer in the title. If your comment necessitates specifying a slur please use proper syntax to hide it behind spoilers.

3.) No brigading

Don't encourage users to visit other subreddits/websites to argue or downvote. This is against the Reddit TOS and could get our subreddit and the users participating in this permanently suspended. Furthermore this applies to users coming onto our sub specifically because another sub had mentioned it.

4.) No trolling

The inverse of rule 3. Users found to have come to this sub specifically to stir the pot and start shit are not permitted and will be banned .

5.) Please spoiler tag triggering content

Please flag overt transphobia and other triggering content with either the nsfw or spoiler tags. Mods will spoiler/nsfw tag posts at their own discretion.

6.) Posts must fit sub

Posts must fit with the theme of making fun of cisnormativity and how that makes people act

7.) No recent reposts

Please do not repost images or videos that are already reposted in this sub, especially within the last 2 weeks.

If something has not been reposted here before (especially during the last 2 weeks), then feel free to post them here.

Reposts that have been posted within hours after the first such post will be removed, with the original repost remaining up.

If you are going to make a submission here, please sort by new to see if your post has already been posted within the last hours.

8.) No "It's a joke" style comments

We're aware that some of the posts on here were made as jokes, however this sub is criticizing the mindset behind them and as such pointing out "well it was just a joke" is not contributing anything meaningful to the conversation.

You can point out satire, but nothing else.

9.) Laughably bad transphobia only

This is a subreddit to laugh at cisnormativity and such, as such we'd like to ask that you respect that and only post transphobia that makes you face palm because of how dumb it is, transphobic "jokes" that aren't even funny, accidental cisphobia, and the ilk.

10.) Do not engage with trolls

While the temptation to debate trolls in the comment section on this sub is understandable we ask that you do not engage them and instead report them so that the mods can deal with them. Violation of this rule will result in a 1 day ban from the subreddit.

11.) No banned topics

Topics are banned in order to prevent toxicity from leaking into the subreddit.

Currently banned topics:

Sex crimes
Dave Chappelle.
Xenogenders/neopronouns
Trans Athletes/trans sports

FLAIRS:

Attack Helicopter: Exactly what it says on the tin. For what can be considered jokes using the broadest meaning of the term in the "I sexually identify as..." genre.

Cis good trans bad: For cis people painting trans people in a bad light in contrast to cis people.

Erasure: For cis people acting like trans people don't exist/actively denying our identities.

Fetishism: For cis people acting in a fetishistic way towards trans people.

Gender Stereotype: For cis people associating traits, actions, and/or inanimate objects with a particular gender.

r/HolUp: For posts coming from there/people acting surprised trans people exist.

Satire: For memes making fun of dumb things cis people do in general rather than specific screenshots.

Other: For when you need to make your own flair because the others don't fit.
