IME trans spaces are kinda just low key hostile to men in general. Not in the way where everybody is hostile or anything, but if you pay attention you’ll notice that misandrists get away with a wild amount of shit slinging in trans spaces as compared to most other flavors of bigotry being policed quickly and harshly
My experience is that it’s generally worse when in the milieu of an institution (e.g. university, larger orgs) or anywhere power imbalance is structural. That there are more examples of good in independent spaces.
I’m not much of a gender expressionist so maybe it doesn’t translate to a transmasc exp.
damn, i didnt realise even trans spaces are hostile to trans mascs :< thats ass
It’s more that many spaces lean heavily transfem, so it’s hard for transmascs to relate or feel represented
And sometimes the high prevalence of transfems in certain spaces leads to people accidentally doing things like she/her’ing everyone by default.
Lmao I’ve almost done this with my friends
