@kittenlikeasmallcat @salt basically ildottore is sorta like the German and Polish Haitians who were made honorary Black Haitians after the revolution because they weren't choosing to be complicit in French colonialism. because it isn't in the material self-interest of any men to align themselves with women's struggles (much less that of trans women) I don't as a rule expect men as a class to ever be on my side, but it's always possible for there to be exceptions to the rule of individuals being intelligent and decent people instead of just going with whatever is already the miserable status quo we're all condemned to.
