cumtown is a homophobic podcast

b b-but dunking on gays and disabled people must be ok if these fucking brave lads of the left are doing it :O=

can't wait till those new contrapoints viewers proceed to eat up all her takes about nb people & male privilege that other trans women have been pushing back against

I know you second thoughted that but can you explain plz? What are her thoughts on nb ppl and male priv? Or is this just some TERF thing?

wait is contrapoints bad

Everyone is bad.

have watched at least 45 minutes of contrapoints and am fairly confident she is good not bad

There's a zero percent chance some adult men who run a podcast called Cumtown aren't total pieces of shit

oh that much is true but I'm not talking about them

wish i cld find a good thread or post covering these bc i'm not a trans woman myself & don't want to misrepresent intracommunity discourse, but for now-- regarding her video "the aesthetic," there's been criticism about her using the "tabby" character as a sort of strawman, & her glossing over both in the video & in a subsequent (& then subsequently deleted) thread of the violence of gender non-conformance & her describing non-passing trans women as not quite women bc of their inability to pass

shld mb clarify by "her" i mean including takes she's endorsed, e.g. the male privilege thing is in regards to cosigning andrea long chu's thread about trans women having male privilege before they transition, which... others have pointed out is unnuanced for various reasons & however true it might sometimes be is rhetoric used towards explicitly transmisogynistic ends. also cosigning a thread from alc about gender being primarily determined by how society sees you, which overlaps w "the aesthetic"

there are certainly trans women & nonbinary people who agree w natalie on most those points (including alc herself natch) but a lot that don't, & there's something not-great about cis people & people who aren't circumscribed by those debates taking those positions to be self-evident when rhetoric at the v least adjacent to them is used to justify violence

*by "her takes"

what if it's the name of their dog

strawdog

oh nvm lol

i mean obv this isn't like a "cancelled" thing or w/e & i'm sure her videos on like incels are incisive

cosigning andrea long chu's thread about trans women having male privilege before they transition, which... others have pointed out is unnuanced for various reasons & however true it might sometimes be is rhetoric used towards explicitly transmisogynistic ends

oh cool i hate this argument

you're roundly otm here eric thank you

Thanks for the elaboration, eric. I haven't followed the response to her video on "The Aesthetic", but did find it murkier and more conflicted than many of her others. There is a risk if cis audiences are taking these to be the definitive trans perspectives.
