Brava! I wish I could travel back in time with your Terf Origin Story and make my beautiful Goth niece read it. She was a raging lesbian goth, now she identifies as a 'he' and is slowly dying from T poisoning. Thanks for for honesty. (Oh, I'm Fema Lism)
I would have been so honored Fema/Renee if we could! I seriously wish I could reach women like myself & show them that they are missing out on so much, by denying the reality of who they are. Pride & embracing womanhood used to be a given right of passage butch lesbians used to embrace! I was very lucky to have found those older butch influences in my life that helped guide me towards self acceptance & not delusions or self harm. I’m very saddened to hear about your niece. Seem like we would of gotten along & I definitely would of tried to tell her that she doesn’t need hormones that weren’t meant for her body!
You are reaching and helping many, many women all over the world (thanks to the internet - who would have thunk eh??). I'm old and strong young women like you, give me hope in hopeless times! Thank you!
Thank you so much this was 1 of the most touching replies I have received and if it helps any of the women in this community (especially those I value as a comrade ) find hope that’s an honor!
This was very moving. Your writing is inspiring. Being brutally honest about your experiences and your emotions, throughout this part of your life, is commendable. And difficult. I give you so much credit. I want to say much more. But I'm still processing it all, I guess. I just want to end with this. NOTHING could ever "disqualify" you from this life you are living. You are wise. Brave. Engaging. Aware of your greatest qualities; as well as what may have been mistakes. What are mistakes, though? If not, lessons learned, right? I don't know. Anyhoo. I'm in awe. Keep On, Keepin' On. 😽💜🤍💚
Awe blush …besos thank you. I’m glad my words speak to others that can relate. Seriously that’s why I’m adding my voice to this and encourage all women to speak and peak. Cuz somewhere there’s a woman who needs to hear it herself and doesn’t want to feel she’s insane for thinking those thoughts that don’t fit in the boxes expected of us !
You summed it up perfectly here. Thank you again. You've also inspired me to start working on my writing (on substack) finally. So, that's what I've been doing these past five hours! lol. Thanks for that. Hope to talk to you soon. Have a great day.😻💜🤍💚
Ditto and post yr link in the group. Terf Pride is all about us all celebrating each other so take every opportunity to self promote as we are all hungry for more terfy content to be put out there!
"The battle that chose me" - It chose me too. I was unwittingly in training for it for a very long time - then suddenly this battle came along and all the wrong and right turns I ever made are my power skill-set. My whole life my whole story my whole everything is a perfect match for this. This battle is my True Love.
My true love is us fighting this, but the fact we even have this battle is the vein of my existence cuz nothing of this should even be a thing. It’s a reflection of how much men hate women & how much gaslighting abuse society affords men over us. However definitely glad 4 all the good 1s some of us forced into this standing on the right side of history!
Thanks Christina! I have so much of it I figured I could use this as an outlet for some of it! Looking forward to seeing how yr CS event goes! Trust me wish I could have made the trip! Nothing beat in person activism for me. Anyhow glad to see you in my comments on here & I’ll catch up with you soon on drunken terf talk tomorrow though I’ll probably be heading out shorter after it starts! But yes most importantly we all got to shout out of the rooftops to get this to stop! Whatever it takes. Totally with you on this! Rage on ! 💪💜🤍💚
I’m happy too that you did 💜 Karen’s Terven brings together many of the fiercest among us! Like I said she’s getting an invite lol but yes our community was once on the right path sending all the right messages about lesbian/gay Pride telling our youth that they had brighter futures to look forward to that we were all fighting for. Now they tell them everyone is their enemy & that they would kill themselves if they don’t pretend to be the opposite sex or that they should be raped or murdered for not being open to the opposite sex. I knew when they criminalized “gay conversion” it was because they found another way to fuck us all over via trans the gay away! I just didn’t think so many of our peers would green light & go right along with it! Definitely not the old school butches that I knew or my peers that I partied with that had no problems attracting the ladies. I’m glad it couldn’t touch those of us that had already experienced the joys, pride, and acceptance of embraces our lesbianism!

So glad to see you expressing yourself on here! Ride the Rage!
This is what it's all about. All of us women speaking up, telling the world this is not OK. Women say NO. Keep it up. Your voice is important. 💕🔥✊🏻
