Until recently, I have always been a very loud pro-trans ally. I've attended protests on behalf of trans rights and ended lifelong friendships over even a whiff of transphobia. But watching so many of my trans friends continue to ignore and even defend the issue regarding porn and its' fetishization of pedophilia and violence against women and has been incredibly eye-opening and shocking to me.
I've gotten into SO many arguments lately with trans people I've known for decades regarding the ethics of "barely legal" and lolicon porn. They'll defend it down to their last breath, swearing up and down that making any move to attempt to regulate pedophilic porn will "lead to a trans genocide." They make these arguments… while knowing firsthand that I was groomed and exploited as a kid by a man using lolicon manga. They were IN MY LIFE when it happened. Some have even explained that I am "using transphobic rhetoric" for being against lolicon at all… because "some trans women realized they were trans because of lolicon."
At first, I thought maybe it was just that my "friends" were just not the people I thought they were. I thought, surely it can't be the entire trans community, right? And while I definitely see some trans people advocating against pedophilic porn, there's the entire "pro-paraphilia" side of the community, as well as a huge portion of the community that is basically like "well, ~I~ don't like it, but we can't have ANY censorship because then trans people will be censored!" The violence against women and children have to be ignored so that you don't have to fight for your own rights a little harder? You'd rather protect the pedophiles and sadists than work harder to separate your community from them?
If I am now magically "transphobic" for having an issue with these things that had a direct impact on my life, and so many other women's lives, then so be it. I won't harass them, I won't cause them trouble, but my advocacy for them stops here. I will always prioritize women first and foremost from here on out… because clearly nobody else but us will.

this site being so full of desperate appeals to normies really is saying a lot
