So @mayadeanewriter and I decided to write an essay about How To Read A Trans Fem Writer - about the hyper-criticality and scrutiny that our work is subjected to. And we invited some of our fave trans fem writers to comment! Check it out: open.substack.com/pub/kaiche…

As a general rule, carnivores are male and herbivores are female. The larger an animal is the more it tends to be male. Wild animals tend male whereas domesticated animals tend female, however this can be overridden by size and carnivorousness.

vinted enforces gendered categories for baby clothing, which means that even non-gendered hippie organic stuff with applique animals on it has to be gendered by the seller. This gives real-time insight into the way that certain animals are considered to have an intrinsic gender.
gender is such an interesting scam. like tell me why i regularly find myself thinking ‘what gender would you expect someone who enjoys this music to be’ or ‘can men understand this film’ with my operative human brain. bro. it’s sounds. it’s pictures

Sometimes I see a medical image so striking I have to call Briar over so that they can look at the things a human body can do, which it would seem include some real IRL Uzumaki shenanigans.

i thought you had to like own property, stocks, or a business to be bourgeois; certainly there are plenty of non-wealthy people who would count (i'd be one, technically), but a trans starbucks worker in a major US city (say) would prob. not fit the def.

granted, i'm not an academic and i'm not into theory, this is literally just from reading marx in college & knowing marxists. maybe there is now a competing definition where "bourgeois" can just mean "comparatively privileged/well off next to many people in the global south"
