The problem with the concept that there are trans men who don’t have male privilege is that it seems to imply that there are trans women who DO have it, which is a concept that is widely agreed to be unequivocally transmisogynistic. Any rebuttal for this?
My rebuttal is; I know trans women who have lived in my house and sat on my couch and watched movies and played videogames with me who have told me to my face that they did receive male privilege on a similar incredibly conditional, individual, and situational basis similar to how I am describing for trans men, how it relied on the closet and total stealth, and very aware they had to be of the line they were toeing, and how much worse they are treated now that they are out and transitioning, and how afraid they are to say it because of rabid people online who are looking for any excuse whatsoever to hurt them when they deal with that enough in their everyday lives.
I am forever reminded of this older interview (mid-90s early 2000s I think) of transgender Japanese citizens and this one person who was probably what we would call a trans woman. And, like my butch friend, was trapped in a situation in which there was absolutely zero room to breathe. They were amab, married to a woman with multiple children, working as a businessman to support the family. They said how they always felt like a woman on the inside, and how they knew that could never be a reality for them, so they didn't see much point in pursuing anything because it would break their family apart. The only thing they could do was make various cute needlework girly things during their daily commute to and from work. They had some cover story for their wife that they were buying them from a shop for their daughters or something.
Do you think that this person, who is perceived by everyone around them to be a cis man for several decades, does not benefit from male privilege in any way despite probably not actually being a man? Do you understand what I'm talking about when I say that this is a topic that needs to be discussed with far more delicacy and nuance than "man privilege woman not privilege"?
Do you think that all of the accounts of trans women out there saying "when I came out and started identifying as and passing for a woman, people suddenly started treating me much worse" and "I frequently have to boymode because otherwise my life is too dangerous" aren't discussions of exactly what I'm talking about?
Privilege is a tricky, complicated thing. It's also something bigoted society bestows upon you, and not a moral critique of your own existence. TERFs and MRAs both have poisoned the well, but that's not a reason to completely disregard the much-needed grace that has to be had during these conversations.
Personally I think any trans person's experience with "male privilege" is shakey at best and entirely contingent on a wide number of factors that you can't just point at their gender and say yes or no. I think it's way more complicated than that. And I don't think anyone is lesser for having or not having it, either. Gender is a morally neutral thing. Gender presentation is a morally neutral thing. It is okay to exist. It's okay to have a complicated existence.

"it might be hard if you're autistic but everyone needs to learn to follow societal norms" why.
"well, it's the social norm! everyone does it!" cool. again why should i do it.
"because it's expected. >:(" you're still not telling me why i should be doing it.
"autistic people can't put themselves in other people's shoes or understand what they think, so sad :(" you're the one who's not understanding how fucking exhausting it probably is to try and follow idiotic unwritten rules that make no fucking sense but everyone acts like YOU should apologize if they're rude to you because you mess it up.
ah my favourite! you messed up these social things so we can treat you like a feral animal now! what do you mean inhumane? we are the truly civilized ones!

also the fact that a nonzero amount of people commenting on that reddit post decided that since op is a lesbian, she must be jealous that her sister is in a heterosexual relationship and can get pregnant...............💀💀
um. think long and hard why you would jump to that conclusion. and don't talk to any gay people until you've learned why.

back from arguing in a reddit thread <3 people on reddit are fucking insane when it comes to relationships and weddings and pregnancy. just be fucking normal for one second holy shit
i dread to as much as ponder what has been happening, i rarely stray onto the red website
i sadly have a genetically inherited affliction that makes me argue on the internet so i go on reddit a lot <3
this is the post that fucked me up today. all the comments are unhinged. what the hell are you guys talking about, how is OP the asshole when her family are clearly being weird as hell.
in other news, OP is diagnosed autistic but her poor neurotypical family obviously can't be expected to accommodate HER (even though she's presumably been like this for all 25 years of her life), because that would be soooo difficult. :( she should be the one to try to learn arcane rules that don't make any logical sense for her and then be derided for not understanding them! so much easier for everyone <3

Which path should he choose?
The path of the warrior, the path of the scholar, or the path of the artist?
he should wander away and have a picnic while he thinks about what path to choose
Great idea! But where should he have the picnic?
Under the tree, or under the old fort?
By the sea, so he can enjoy the sound of the waves
A lovely choice!
Should he build a sandcastle to pass the time? Or perhaps go fishing?
Perhaps he could collect shells he finds interesting
Sounds fun!
Which shell should he pick up?
This one
That's not a shell, it's a tiny earpiece.
Should he listen to music? Or to the mysterious pre-recorded message?
He should give it back to the crab in the largest shell, they thought they had lost their wave-pod and are grateful he found it!
The crab wants to give a gift in return.
Should he accept the gift of power, or the gift of knowledge?
the gift of friendship :)
Friendship acquired!
Should they celebrate with pizza or ice cream?
The crab friend cannot eat either of those! Let's split a nice seaweed salad instead. :)
So many options!
Should they get tossed salad, wiggly salad, or spiky salad?
Seasar salad
Nothing beats getting it straight from the source
Should they use scissors or claws to cut the seaweed?
What about that sword in the first panel?
The circle is complete.
Through choices, friendship, and salad, he found his way to the path of the warrior. But he won't walk it alone.
Their path is just beginning, but this story is over.
Thank you to everyone who participated!
This is all the worst and best parts of being a GM. Thanks OP. You did a great job.

Ngl “don’t assume someone is queer based on their appearance” is a very frustrating and norm core stance when you’re someone like me who prefers to dress like a faggot for the express purpose of signaling to other faggots that I am a faggot.
Please stop trying to make queerness just another attribute and accept that there’s a rich culture surrounding it and that that isn’t dirty or undesirable just because YOU think it’s obsessing over pain and alienation.
This post has made a very small number of incredibly annoying queers very angry and I’d just like to say, from the bottom of my heart, I don’t respect you.

... that entire thread reminded me of why i have social anxiety lmao, i had to close it after reading 3 messages
i understand now why you posted that you agree with the beliefs of autistic people
RIGHT??? why are you all beholden to weird and arcane societal rules, and then when someone doesn't intuitively understand them, they are an asshole?? it must be so exhausting to interact with them
*social interaction* how do you react?
person: polite but atypical reaction
buzzer: WRONG! prepare the gladiator pit
