@mischievoustomato @anemone @arcana I think this is low-key cope because no matter how ugly you think a spinster or woman might be, it's still quite obvious that it's a woman. Nobody is checking chromosomes or birth certificates when they choose who to rape or accost at the end of the day. T theall women or women with masculine traits or mannerisms are still obviously women to me (butches and mascs). Women who don't meet western societal expectations of beauty or perform femininity will be discriminated against (esp if considered fat) and treated poorly but they are still marked as women in society. It's mainly that men don't respect women unless they think they have a chance at fucking etc. I also think this is why my transmasc or trans guy friends also get harassed or threatened with rape a lot more often. All the visibly Butch people I went to school with (pre transition) were severely bullied, harassed, and followed the entire time from kinder- senior year.
