1. La Transfobia como Herramienta de la Supremacía Blanca.
La transfobia se manifiesta como una herramienta para mantener estructuras de poder basadas en la supremacía blanca, el patriarcado y el colonialismo, afectando desproporcionadamente a las mujeres de color y a las personas trans no blancas.
- Yeah transphobia/transmisogyny is heavily intersected with racism and white supremacy.
- Transphobia is inherently rooted in white supremacy and misogyny, misogynoir in particular. Scratch a transphobe and a racist bleeds.
- Transphobia is inherently linked to white supremacy, because to a white supremacist the distinction between man and woman is built on white standards of femininity.
- Your reminder that transphobia is the leading edge of white supremacy. Their approach is basically "all minorities are guilty of sex crimes until proven otherwise".
2. Interseccionalidad: Transfobia, Racismo y Misoginia.
La transfobia no opera de forma aislada, sino que se entrelaza con el racismo, la misoginia y otras formas de opresión, creando experiencias únicas de discriminación para las personas que se encuentran en estas intersecciones.
- Transphobia and racism always go hand in hand. There’s a racist stereotype which stems from slavery, for example, of black women looking more masculine than white women, and black trans women have been stopped due to this.
- The transphobia is knotted up with racism, sexism and homophobia! it’s all about setting a very narrow model of white male humanity at the top and punishing everyone else based on our distance from that “ideal.”.
- Transphobia and racism r not exclusive from each other, nor transphobia and misogyny, they're not separate things but just the various faces supremacist bigots wear.
- Transphobia is always either misogyny or racism at its core. . I mean, it's usually both, but i was using the inclusive or!
3. Impacto Desproporcionado en Mujeres Trans de Color.
Las mujeres trans de color, especialmente las mujeres trans negras, sufren de manera desproporcionada la violencia y la discriminación debido a la convergencia de la transfobia, el racismo y la misoginia.
- Damn, it’s almost like transphobia is intrinsically linked to white supremacy and disproportionately affects women of color, just like black trans women have been saying forever.
- Transphobia was always rooted in white femininity and misogynoir. Its foundation is criminalizing black women, girls & femmes who can never be seen as feminine enough to be protected. It’s another reason to fight anti-trans ideology. We should not participate in our own destruction.
- Racism often goes hand in hand with transphobia, with black women often being wrongly accused as being too “manly”!
- Racism in combination with transphobia is the reason that black trans women are the victims of violence 3x as much as whites women.
4. Colonialismo y la Imposición de Normas de Género.
El colonialismo ha desempeñado un papel fundamental en la imposición de normas de género binarias y en la supresión de las identidades de género no conformes, contribuyendo a la transfobia global.
- I’ve always tied transphobia to colonialism considering how many bipoc cultures recognized trans and non-binary folk before europeans forced their culture on them, so hearing a black person doing this hurts. Being trans is not a “white thing.”.
- Transphobia is rooted in white supremacy (white cis heterosexual masculinity) and colonialism, both of which rely on a rigid gender binary. The intersection of racism, anti-blackness and negatively impact trans people.
- Transphobia is linked to other forms of bigotry. If you don't have eurocentric features, dress the eurocentric beauty standard, or behave the eurocentric version of a woman, they're going to accuse you of being trans. So transphobia can be linked to racism, ableism, xenophobia, and more.
- Transphobia is a factor of white supremacy and settler colonialism. Do you ever dissect on why homophobia and transphobia existed in this plane of existence. This is all due to colonization and white supremacy.
5. La Necesidad de Solidaridad y Acción Interseccional.
Para combatir eficazmente la transfobia, es crucial adoptar un enfoque interseccional que reconozca y aborde las múltiples formas de opresión que afectan a las personas trans, trabajando en solidaridad con otros movimientos de justicia social.
- Oppression for some is oppression for all. Transphobia is hand in hand with cismisogyny and racism.
- Anyway, racism, homophobia, and transphobia, are all tied together in this narrative. So you can't really fight against things like transphobia without also fighting against racism & white supremacy.
- Respectfully, as a trans person, i've seen way more transphobia coming from white women than any other group of people. Yeah "not all white women," but it's enough to where i don't feel safe around them in general anymore.
- Transphobia is rooted in racism and you cannot possibly hope to abolish transphobia without first going after the racist ideals by which it is founded on.
