is the interaction with art and the culture of expression considered consuming content. is reading poetry or going to an art museum considered consuming content. is listening to music considered consuming content. if watching sports is consuming content does going to a game constitute content consumption? is the implication of this poll that an accusatory finger is being pointed at you, the media consumer, suggesting that you need to interact with something other than art? how did watching a film devolve into “consuming” “content” rather than an honest interaction between a storyteller and a fellow human being? is reading a book the same type of hobby as watching tiktok? what is the purpose of dividing the ways we interact with the world into categories like this?

TORTUGA SWEEP

OP do you think this is two bears

YOU LOOK AT SSC'S LINE OF MECHS AND TELL ME THAT THERE'S A SINGLE GODDAMN BEAR. THERE ISN'T. IT'S ALL JUST WOMEN WITH THEIR FEET OUT

for hell's sake i was half-tempted to use the Death's Head for SSC's bear, but White Witch was higher in the original polls

THE POINT OF SSC IS THAT THEY HAVE NO BEARS BECAUSE THEY'RE THE COUTURE MILITARY EUGENICIST FACTION! THEY MAKE WAR CRIMES LOOK SEXY AND THEY THINK THAT FATNESS ISN'T MARKETABLE. YOU SHOULD HAVE JUST PUT THE BARBAROSSA IN RATHER THAN TRY AND GET ONE OF ALL FOUR CORPROS

Girls I really appreciate the in depth analyses you're giving to afabs who wanna call themselves transfem and why that hurts us but I think the only real solution is to make fun of them by pointing out that they want to cool cultural mystique of being transfem without the transmisogyny and hardship of being a tranny. Like that's the whole reason why and you can't convince me otherwise

other trans women can put it better than me but there's this, tension, between "radical genderpunk you can be whatever you want forever-ness" and "trans woman as politicised identity"

one views any engagement with your assigned gender at birth as like, being trapped in a prison of your own making,? as using the tools of the enemy or whatever. and the other is "yes my assigned gender is a prison, it is a prison the outside world is constantly enforcing on me and i would like to be able to talk about that a little thanks"

so you get this tension, where one side (made up of predominantly people who aren't trans women) says "the ideal world is one in which you can be whatever the fuck you want forever! so call yourself anything you want as long as it makes you happy, you can be an afab trans woman if you want it's all made up :)" and the other side says "hey hi yes i broadly agree with you on the whole ultimate gender liberation front, but we do not live in an ideal world and transfemininity is uniquely demonized even as far as trans identities in general go, so i would appreciate it if maybe you didn't act like our identity and oppression was something made up that you could just put on and take off whenever you like? we sure as fuck can't do that."

and then the other side goes "hey all these trans women are invalidating us! why are they gatekeeping and being so exclusive! assigned gender at birth shouldn't matter so why are you acting like it does!?"

and they say this while we live in a society where your assigned gender at birth very much does matter, and if you're a trans woman it is borderline impossible to escape that.

it's like an is-ought problem where since we're not acting like we already live in a gender utopia where one's relationship with assigned sex and gender is completely arbitrary, we're treated like the enforcers of the gender binary.

this is where you get stupid bullshit like people calling trans women radfems

Basically boils down to:

"I don't see AGAB" 🤗

And much like other similar "I don't see...", it's just coming from a position of privilege; how nice for you to be able to go about life without having to worry about that.
