Maybe I'm a bit slow, but is the joke that trans women like misogyny because it validates them as women?
Its a concept known as Ewphoria
I love it when people provide a solid source. I'm cis dude and small words and pictures really help. XD
Nah, pretty sure ya’ve heard “gayass mf” before when you’ve done something nonhet conforming. It's the same thing. The only dif. is you’ve been confirmed as male, but still “ew.”
I say that as someone raise in da hood. Street bitch through🖕and🖕through.
Thanks for that. Never heard that term before but I guess it makes sense in an odd way.
Yes, but that's mostly not how it works. I'm trying to get turned into a man-hating™️ lesbian or something atm
Me when my co-workers started mansplaining my own job to me.
Reminds me of something I read where someone taught someone something, transitioned, and later had that same person mansplain it back to them.
Well, that's probably only true for some people and only for a certain period after coming out to yourself. Sure, it was euphoric feeling seen in my gender identity when I faced misogyny for the first few times. But once I felt more at home in my gender identity, it wasn't pleasant anymore.
I actually know plenty of cis straight women who are repeatedly seeking out men that treat them awfully because they think they don't deserve anything else. I would so far as to say that straight culture is based on misogyny.
Well, that’s probably only true for some people and only for a certain period after coming out to yourself.
I've sorta experienced it long before I had any sort of egg cracking and it wasn't even about the other person seeing me as a woman (so not misogyny) - I just felt that having such a experience made me better be able to relate to women and somehow for some reason that sorta compensated.
Agreed that it probably falls off as you either become more self-confident or get more regular external affirmations that aren't awful.
I hate this meme
why
Do you really need someone to explain to you the following??? That:
- Misogyny is bad
- Characterising trans women as liking misogyny plays into harmful stereotypes
- Announcing in mixed company that "no, actually, women do enjoy misogyny," might encourage people to engage in misogyny
Trans people making memes for other trans people are allowed to make jokes about their own experiences with ewphoria. Yes, misogyny is bad. Doesn't mean sometimes people don't have a conflicted enjoyment of it despite also hating it.
That's a decent thought, but I think the solution here is to spend more time on social media taking memes way too seriously.
Yeah, and? I'm allowed to dislike those memes.
I'm dum.
end of story.
It's okay
Whom amongst us
thanks for being understanding ( ╹▽╹ )
No thank you, I'm sick and tired of misogyny.
I like the art
Even long before my transition, I've been a feminist and but wholly believe in a matriarchal society. So, nope! Not in a million years. Fuck off with this male-dominated ego bullshit.
... Edited for clarity!
feminist
matriarchal society
This doesn't compute, you're not a feminist lmao.
Why don't you go look that definition up, then correlate it with today's society and WHY feminism is needed more than ever.
Genuine question; how do you reconcile matriarchy with gender equality? Wouldn't that just take the problem we have now (patriarchy) and flip it instead of actually freeing us from gendered hierarchies?
I don't reconcile it. I misspoke (edited).
I'd rather just live under a more matriarchal society. I believe such a society would eventually balance out to equality, but as it stands now, here in the US in 2026, we're cooked.
Yeah, that's not an explanation why you think feminism is advocating for matriarchy.

Oh look, no mention of your fringe theory. Maybe actually respond to what was asked rather than throwing up a smoke screen.
Matriarchy would easily become equality. Men, however, would never hand over the reins, but instead slowly work towards equality. It's a control/power issue. Who knows how long that's gonna take!
I love being dominated by my Mummy but I only believe in matriarchy in the bedroom, not in society
