#TERFLogic is our daily effort to prove that the anti-trans hate movement calling itself “Radical Feminism” and/or “Gender Critical Feminism” is neither.

These TERFs’ conversation is officially the *stupidest* commentary on trans people I’ve ever read. And I’ve read most of the other posts under #TERFLogic! (Thank you for starting this new feature; it’s helpful to gain insight into an enemy mindset, though perhaps you should add a disclaimer to each post warning the reader not to drink anything while browsing.)
Seriously, yaoi and narratives influenced by it, such as many examples of M/M fan fiction, can be instrumental in helping transmasculine people discover their identities. It sounds as though this trans guy’s “””friend””” is bitter that he didn’t fit her ideal of a budding “liberated woman,” and her fellow TERF is backing her up with the bad kind of Freudian rhetoric translated to a trans dynamic.
So the first TERF is a licensed psychiatrist who can diagnose friends with multiple conditions? In my experience Aspies, including me, tend to be less rigid about gender and orientation. Whose business is it anyway? This woman was never a friend to the man in question.
Believing that one is qualified to make psychiatric diagnoses despite having no credentials would explain a lot of TERF behavior, honestly.
