What trans girls hear in conversion therapy lol
Literally nobody is running around demanding that feminine cis dudes transition into women. Literally no one. Nobody is pressuring cis men to live as trans women, but the reverse sure as fuck is true.
Imagine thinking that the second a trans woman throws on a skirt, everybody and their dog trips over themselves to tells her how much of a female girl woman lady she is. Imagine thinking that trans women are so accepted in society that in the rush to correctly gender us that they’re affirming the womanhood of anyone who could potentially be a transfem.
The majority of people can’t wait for the chance to call transfems men, so I highly fucking doubt literal actual cis men are struggling to be labelled as male lol
IMO whats happening here is simple. people see trans women make egg jokes (which are essentially someone saying "haha i used to do that and so did my friends"). however, a trans woman is, in terms of social capital, the worst gender you can have. so to compare someone to a trans woman is the most gendered insult you can throw out. Now, because we want to be ostensibly accepting of trans people, we need another framwork to say its not ok to do this: misgendering. And so the egg joke gets interpreted as actual pressure to transition, complete with wording that sounds like if you asked ChatGPT to write SFW sissification. Which is ridiculous, but makes sense if you want to explain why a trans woman going "hahaha i used to do that when i was repressing" makes you deeply uncomfortable.
People on the Queerest Website on the Internet™️ when trans women talk about transmisogyny and the million and one ways society including LGBTQ people express their deep discomfort with trans women simply existing and having fun: lolololol anyone here smoke weed???

i gotta say i agree that exposing children to algorithmic content feeds is going to make them grow up with one billion new kinds of mental illnesses and it's a serious societal problem that urgently needs addressing but it makes me v. v. v. uneasy when i see posts going around that identify this issue and come to the conclusion 'this is why it's important for parents to know what their kid is doing online' and uh girls there are a lot of kids out there who would be dead if their parents knew what they were doing online
"yeah this aspect of capitalism is extremely alienating and traumatizing" and im nodding and smiling and then they add "which is why we must retreat to the safety of the family" and i start abruptly high-pitched screaming like a fire alarm

ultimately every time i see Egg Discourse happen it boils down to people just defaulting to vocabulary and ideas developed for discussing systemic oppression and using them in a totally inappropriate context--and so taking what is at worst an individual interaction where a trans woman is presumptuous and rude and framing it as if it's on par with overwhelming societal norms that are enforced with social & physical violence
i mean i also think it's kind of an unpleasant and invasive thing to do to offer someone your unsolicited opinion on their gender situation. but framing it as an organised system of 'pressure' or acting like people need reassurance and affirmation that it's okay to be cis (!) because of the machinations of those perfidious trans women--or even making the comparison to the gender binary, which has the weight of legal systems and sanctioned social and physical violence behind it worldwide, is making vesuvius out of a molehill. like i'm sorry if your friend called you an egg and it bothered you but sort that out with her instead of posting about it like it's a systemic axis of oppression we need to organize ourselves against.

[capitalist voice]: in the dystopian commie hellscape that is china, housing just keeps getting cheaper and cheaper, leaving people who buy and then re-sell houses instead of doing actual work high and dry, while mean greedy workers selfishly buy houses, to live in.
