Tilting

It’s all in the angle of the head. Glinner on that Magic Moment:

It’s one of the most magical moments in a young transwoman’s life, when she tilts her head to the side and instantly becomes a woman. Who would have thought that rotating your head ever so slightly gave instant access to women’s changing rooms, sports and women-of-the-year lists.

The same people who knew that duck-face can work the same magic.

    Shit! So every time I’m concentrating on trying to locate the source of a sound I turn into a woman?

    Acolyte: It’s like Christianity. If while tilting your head you feel deep in your heart, then it must be true. No other “proof” or reality required.

    I don’t know how I’m going to break it to my dog that tilting his head means he’s now a bitch…

    The picture on the lower right is Marsha P. Johnson, a prominent drag queen/activist who was present at the Stonewall riots (but did not start them, contrary to revisionist fables by ideologues). Johnson is on record describing himself as a man up until his death, sometimes in ways that would send the trans activists who coopt his image straight to the fainting couch—he called himself a “transvestite” and a “mister sister.” But like Mormons, TRAs just can’t stop themselves from dragging the unconsenting dead into their cult. (The transing of the dead is actually more sinister than baptism of the dead, because TRAs again legitimacy by claiming historical figures as their own, whereas the Mormons just come across as weird and creepy.)

    But But But TWAW, therefore, the word “trans” is redundant in the headline.

    For all their carry on that TWAW, are they sure that constantly labelling people “trans” is helping their cause?

    @4 It’s even more sinister in that any woman who doesn’t behave in an appropriately feminine manner is by definition labelled male–leaving no actual women in history doing or being anything besides feminine stereotypes.

    “TRY AND TELL ME TRANS WOMEN ARENT FUCKING GORGEOUS I DARE YOU”

    Trans women aren’t fucking gorgeous. Argumentum ad baculum. Piss off with your allcaps, dipshit.

    #7. I also question the claim on the term “gorgeous” to somehow apply only to women. There are many, many men who are gorgeous as well!

    Now, someone larding their face up with makeup and plastic surgery and mincing around deliberately catering to the most reactionary stereotypes-I find that hard to define as gorgeous.

    Brian, I have known some beautiful people, but I wouldn’t call them gorgeous, their beauty wasn’t entirely superficial. I usually use that word to describe animals, of all kinds, but horses in particular, and I agree, irrespective of sex.
