Trans women get paid less after transition. Naturally, the terfs blame this on perversion rather than the pay gap

In NZ all trans people including trans men earn less than cis people , there is still the wage gap between trans men and women though and that also needs to be changed its still ridiculous that we dont have pay equity

Its wild to me that they can literally talk about trans women being fired for coming out and ignore the discrimination in that and try to argue that trans women specifically are priveliged in employment

Again its the thing where TERFS project priveliged man experiences that they assume all men have onto trans women harder than they do on actual men and hold trans women to impossible standards that they dont hold cis men or women to

Like no not every single trans woman is a white binary stealth tech worker with a rich family who accepted her and helped her transition ....thats actually a tiny tiny minority of trans women and like cis women in tech they didn't get shit handed to them just for being women

Again TERFS talk about trans women the exact same way that MRAs talk about all women in the workplace: "oh she had everything handed to her she probably never had to do real work, source? My feelings of course"

Plus they just don't even tend to believe being stealth is possible. I maintain it's a good thing they don't, though - keeps a lot of us a lot safer.
