A great piece by Julia Serano on 'male socialization', and misunderstandings about transmisogyny.

    Oh interesting. Yeah I'm sure it makes sense in context. But to me my socialization was outside of my control, but clearly socialization may explain certain behaviors, mannerisms, etc, but obviously socialization doesn't determine gender anyway. An AFAB person could be socialized as a male for one reason or another and end up still a cis woman, but have more ""masculine"" mannerisms or behaviors or something.

      socialization as a concept is a real enough thing. 'male socialization' and 'female socialization' as immutable constructs applying broadly and equally across humanity is crackpot terf shit.
