like as a trans woman I have felt massive demand to make myself sexually and romantically available to men and that demand has been institutionally enforced by therapists and outdated diagnostic models of transsexuality as well as broader cultural notions which demand heterosexuality as a prerequisite for womanhood. As wittig explains, to be a woman is to be heterosexual, which is why to be a lesbian is to be labeled by men as dyke or not-woman. That structure of compulsory heterosexuality for women is 100% imposed on trans women, in really acute and intense ways. The liberation of trans women cannot be separated from lesbian liberation.

I don’t trust reddit because it’s the only social network whose users don’t hate the website they’re using. twitter users hate twitter. snapchat users hate snapchat. but reddit users will get a neck tattoo of the goofy little alien friend and name their first born son r/gaming
