like, if I’m nice (as I would prefer to be), a man might get the wrong impression, but I’m also afraid to be rude or do anything to upset them so I have to be the right kind of nice or polite - it’s a real double-bind, and something I don’t experience with women

    Trans women are, I am reliably informed, women.

    You can tell by looking at the paychecks, for all society might say otherwise.

    Edit: possibly double extra women, going by the paychecks.

      Definitely double extra women. I just got handed a gender and don’t even think about it, they fought for and won theirs, that’s a goddamn battle trophy.

        Yes but you’re talking about a narrative that implies a universality or underlying truth. I’m talking about math that implies an external perspective from the assholes who centrally manage our economy from the pedo island.
