      It’s so incredibly stupid how even things like making food, one of the most basic necessities of any living thing, are somehow meant to be done by a specific group of people only. Well, according to some twats.

      Everyone belongs in the damn kitchen

      Cooking or baking something good, and having everyone like it is the fucking best.

      Alright, had to rant a little. It’s not a problem in my family, quite the contrary. But I know some guys that just… ugh

          well if the feminist movement is all about deconstructing gender and removing fixed ideas of gender, then surely the trans movement is reversing this by reinforcing stereotypes in how people dress etc. /s

                “So are cis women who like wearing dresses pushing stereotypes by existing?”

                If they think so, point out that, by their logic, the only way to destroy gender stereotypes is to force women to wear certain articles of clothing, which is likely counterproductive to their goals.

                If they don’t, probably don’t even waste your breath on them. The component keeping their internal logic together is likely some transphobia they’re not willing to admit to.

                  but isn’t the difference in one case free gender expression, whereas the other is (e.g. for trans male to female): I think I’m a woman and to show this I’m going to specifically dress in the ‘stereotypically womanliest’ way possible?

                  or, more generally, people shouldn’t be using gender as the reason to dress and act the way they want to. else they’re affirming that a certain gender means a certain form of acting.

                  obviously this is an exaggeration. but since we’re playing the game.
