somewhere between the soul and soft machine

Text: decoupling pregnancy from femininity means accurate and more inclusive language and treatment, but it also allows cis women to refuse motherhood without refusing womanhood, which is great for feminism and terrifying for misogyny.

–THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS. As a sterile cis woman who doesn’t want to have children anyway I feel this is every ounce of my being. “Define woman” types tend to do so in a way that excludes me too, so I got to stand with my trans sisters.

i know y’all like to pretend it’s not possible, but there are trans men who can get pregnant, there are also trans men who still want to keep that option open while being respected as their correct gender. don’t push us out of discussions & issues regarding pregnancy / forced sterilization.

trans men have every right to be publicly involved in discourse abt reproductive rights, this is our reality and our bodies, we don’t have to keep silent to avoid upsetting truscum / ignorant cis people.
