‘they seem to think it makes a big difference whether or not it’s true…’
direct translation: it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not
siri please define propaganda
they think that calling us ‘farts’ will make us look bad but it’s backfired here. nobody on earth will be able to look at the phrase ‘ongoing fart violence’ and take it seriously
When an oppressor group tells an oppressed group they’re unfuckable, undesirable etc etc that oppressor group STILL manages to make HUGE amounts of material that makes it clear that the oppressed group is still involved (however horribly) in their sexual desires (eg. porn, rape porn, other degrading material that fetishizes the ‘otherness’ of the oppressed group.) This is true for literally every oppressed group i can think of, whether it’s racist porn, porn fetishizing disability, or misogynist porn.
Lesbians as a class don’t do this because lesbianism isn’t a form of hate/oppression towards people who aren’t the subject of lesbian desire. Lesbians aren’t an oppressor group and “people who lesbians are categorically unattracted to” are not an oppressed group. Lesbianism is just a form of human sexuality and is just neutral in and of itself.
However i’ve seen LOTS of videos and drawings and essays and tweets from trans and bi people (who all call lesbians “ugly”, “unfuckable”, “undatable”, “fishy” etc etc) that involve depictions of unwilling lesbians in sex acts (in other words – rape); lesbians being “punished” for expressing boundaries. Several “queer” people i know shared a piece of art on facebook of a trans woman rubbing up against a lesbian who looked uncomfortable and shocked. The trans woman had a speech bubble over her head saying “it’s just a penis honey, get over it”. This apparently was totally normal content that was being shared on social media and no one really said anything about the fact that it was depicting rape. It was meant to be “funny”. There are also porn videos made by trans women who talk about wanting to “hatefuck” terfs, or implying that lesbians who have expressed a clear boundary “secretly want it”. (the most recent being that fetish video by
h**ley heartless
if i remember). Not to mention that transwoman who burned and killed that black lesbian couple and their son in their house.
Lesbian boundaries are fetishized and sexualized despite that fact that these same people would call lesbians “crusty and unfuckable”.
Lesbians don’t create rape porn of trans women to masturbate over. Y’all are the ones that do that to us, all the while telling us that any expression of our boundaries is a “hate act” that simultaneously justifies the creation and expression of this homophobic material in the first place.
