Something about the Anglo-Saxon skullshape that makes people into imperialist transphobes.

Twitter thread in case anyone wants to yell at the transphobes in the replies.

    Certain regressive strains of feminism are just as gender essentialist as the patriarchy they claim to oppose - they just invert the value judgments. They take regressive notions like "if you have a penis, you're a man" and "men can't help themselves around women, it's just the way we are!" and instead of saying "this is why it's up to a woman to behave properly so she isn't raped" they say "this is why penises are evil."

    (Funny enough, Andrea Dworkin, despite being the go-to example for many of a "man-hating feminist," fully supported transwomen and believed that SRS should be a guaranteed right)
