TERFs are very often terrible about the mentally ill too. You can see it in the way they use "mentally ill" to mean "violent and dangerous", or the way they say "delusional" as if delusions are something people do on purpose to troll them. I may well have a uterus and a second X chromosome in there (not that I've made a effort to check), but this brand of curtain twitching feminism for nice normal people excludes me anyway.

I don't know any trans people personally, so I can understand how someone in my friend circle might not see the issue with Rowling et al's poo poo because they haven't seen the people it affects. It rarely comes up, but when it does I make it clear in no uncertain terms that I will not tolerate TERF bullshit, and so far pointing out how literally all of it is just reheated homophobia has been enough to turn them away from it.
Yeah I know and care about a lot of trans people, so I'm more attuned to it, but it's also... once you start noticing this poo poo you can't turn that off. And I don't want to turn it off, because it's so unfair that people have to put up with it and then feel like they'd be called crazy if they pointed it out.

And I got a drill through the nail to reduce swelling, x-rays, a splint, and a prescription for antibiotics and T3s because I wasn't posing a potential danger to the doctors and nurses.

Being a sketchy-rear end feminist ally is apparently a bellwether for being a TERF piece of poo poo. It shouldn't surprise me that people who are bad at respecting women are also bad a respecting trans folks, but in the back of my brain is always the little voice that goes well, maybe he didn't mean to imply that infertile women are monsters and maybe the fact that he fired that one actress when she got pregnant is a coincidence, after all, he says he's a feminist!

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Re: the TERFs.

I can kinda sorta understand their bigotry. (long story short, as I understand it it's a eww boys are icky, no boys allowed in our superduper special magical white middle class "feminist" club. Also no women of colour or gay people or poor people unless they completely agree with us and act subservient.) It's hateful, and evil, and wrong. But I can understand it's logic. There's also the peripheral, "only real women can have babies", "trans women are all paedophilic male rapists trying to trick us into letting them have a piss next to us" etc. which is just as hateful and wrong. gently caress the TERFs.

But what I can't and never will understand is how dedicated to their hate they seem to be. Linehan lost his job, his wife, his twitter, and any sort of professional respect he may have earned over a long career just because he hates trans women. He had multiple opportunities to wind back the hate, he could just have stopped tweeting about it and instead tweeted about cheese sandwiches or something. But no, he and Rowling and others of their ilk seem to make it their entire life to hate trans people. Why? Surely you have other things to do in your day. Or even why be so hateful so often?

Even most racists have learned that it is not helpful to yell "I hate the loving N******s" 7 times a day out your window at nobody in particular. Yet that was what Linehan was doing, and now JK Rowling. Fair enough, you are a hatelful middle aged bigot. It's a sad fact but the world is full of them. Just shut the gently caress up about it, and go on with your day. There's no need to harrass and dehumanize normal boring law abiding trans folk every second of their lives.

And also, (but this I suppose works for all flavours of bigotry), but I can guarantee that none of the vocal fuckwitted TERFs have ever met a trans person in real life. Coz if they had, they would realize that they are just normal people trying to live their lives, and not the evil "gender traitor" demons kidnapping kids to throw in their conversion cubes and raping ovary-having women in the Ladies room that they think they are.

If you go around saying the N word the majority of people think you're a racist oval office.

If you go around saying transgender women are a danger to cis women and/or throwing around the T word the majority of people either don't really get what you're on about and don't have enough of an opinion on the matter to really care that much one way or the other, or think that kind of language is still acceptable and/or funny.

It doesn't provoke the same backlash as racism when it really ought to, and that's part of the problem.

They aren't interested in meeting trans people or knowing more about them because they believe they know all that their is to know. Any meeting would not have been significant enough to develop empathy or understanding.

Terfs believe trans people are dangerous sexual deviants, and/or trying to undermine what it means to be a woman. I haven't seen anywhere near as much fear or frustration about female to male transitions.

I read a good paper in a masculinities class that was about trans men's experiences at work after transitioning. They were almost universally treated with more respect (one worked in a law office as a receptionist and had several clients tell him that he was much better "than the last girl"). African American men were the only ones who felt short shrifted in their treatment post transition, being treated like "angry black man" stereotypes.

there's a growing amount of fear about trans men, actually, but it shows differently. you don't see sexual predator bullshit, instead you see concern for "women" giving up their ability to give birth before they've really considered it. (The rapid-onset gender dysphoria stuff that TERFs talk about is also for trans men, while autogynephilia is the similar transphobic academia that TERFs use against trans women.) That's the thing, a lot of transphobia is the unwillingness to treat trans people as their real genders, and instead extending concerns about their assigned sex at birth, as if the trans people in question haven't already thought about that and worked through it themselves.

the rapid onset poo poo "amuses" me bc my own experience and that of many, if not a majority, of my transmasc friends has been exactly the terf-decried "one person in a friends group comes out and then they ALL catch the trans" and it's been, to a man, bc we didn't think of "trans man" as a thing that exists, much less a thing we could be; and the weird relationship with the world which we're subsequently identifying, one by one, as gender dysphoria was one of the traits we shared which helped forge our friendships, so no poo poo we all caught it

For Rowling, it's the Hollywood bubble. No one in real life ever says she's wrong to her face, so when people online criticize her, they must all be trolls. I guarantee that if someone approached her in an elevator or something, she'd hem and haw and then write something vicious later because she's a coward. Just look at how quickly she shut up when Stephen King (another rich/famous person, aka someone whose opinion she actually cares about) disagreed with her.

Linehan is a weird one because he seems addicted to attention. Like, actually psychologically addicted, to the point where it's ruined his life. He's a poo poo person and I don't feel particularly bad for him, but dude should probably get some therapy. If things had gone differently and he'd gotten internet famous for being rabidly anti-Semitic or something instead of a transphobe, I have no doubt he'd be posting memes about the International Cabal of Jews or how white Christians are the real persecuted minority or whatever. He doesn't care whose life he ruins as long as he gets those sweet sweet mentions.

I don't know enough about media history to say for sure, but I'm sure there were TV/radio/movie personalities in the 50s and 60s who went all in on the segregation thing and saw their careers crash and burn as well.
