    A bit of a tangent but just today I watched a short about the history of what British colonialist did to the Hijra in India.

    Basically they went over there and went “more than two genders? THAT’S ILLEGAL.”

    Yet nowadays we have transphobes always reciting how it’s somehow a woke new thing to not have the sexual sensibilities of a Victorian British person.

      It’s just so weird to give a fuck about how other people choose to live their lives with a literal child molester and human trafficker in the White House, a protected British royal child molester and a rapist on the Supreme Court. It’s really sick. Just let peaceful people exist in their own way. The gender role structure of how people should act and feel is all based on colonialist pseudoscience.
