Rabbit Cohen on Nostr: I think a lot of transandrophobia denialism comes from a place of misunderstanding ...
I think a lot of transandrophobia denialism comes from a place of misunderstanding intersectionality. Like, people think it’s “marginalisation 1 + marginalisation 2 = double oppression”, and then they end up thinking “well trans people are oppressed, but men aren’t, so trans men and trans mascs only experience regular transphobia”. But it’s not really like that. You can’t just add up the vectors on the axes of marginalisation, you have to account for the unique ways they interact.
