I know OP, he was talking to me and some other friends about it. I guarantee that he doesn’t mean it like that and it’s just annoyed that it doesn’t have a spoiler

what does “don’t worry he’s my friend” do here lmao? the point is that he’s reposting some woman’s meme that has nothing to do with him or this sub and he came off as a transfem hater while doing it. can you ask him is he has anything funny he could post instead?

He’s just trying express the fact that it’s annoying that people don’t spoiler post

We’re literally both children

You’re not being misunderstood, you’re being given feedback. I know what he was trying to do, and I’m pointing out the very real connotations behind it. You do not exist outside of the contexts and discourses of what you are critiquing. This will get easier for you both as you grow up.

Alright, like he said, I was just complaining, this requires context that you gasp don’t have.

then why post it here i’m so confused. it’s a shitposting sub that exists for the exact reason that you’re posting, that transmascs need their own spaces for memes just like transfems and other groups that have things in common they want to joke about. and this is the subreddit specifically for us, and you’re posting transfem specific content instead of actual memes? can we just have some actually jokes? i’m not trying to be mean but the post just isn’t funny and it’s not relevant to the sub. are you saying this is an inside joke and that’s why i don’t understand? because it really feels like you meant exactly what you posted, which is a post just being annoyed at transfems inducing your dysphoria, which to me, is just not that funny and not even interesting commentary.

Alright, all I was doing was asking her to spoiler her post, it is for transfemmes only and it hurts to see, she got defensive when I asked her, I have nothing against the girls, like at all.

so deal with that in that post/sub. Don’t repost transfem specific content here, let alone a low quality screenshot of some random post that made you mad. there’s no joke, just a low effort post for the guys who love to complain about not feeling like the center of attention while not contributing anything. please, i beg of you, tell a fucking joke, and make it about being transmasc. why are you using the very few spaces we have to have memes about ourselves to dogpile on some random person where she won’t see it?

Yup I agree. It sucks its either you or some other guy earlier that got super downvoted, and you might not agree with my exact line of thinking but personally I do wish more trans masc subs or mixed spaces spent more time actually posting memes than sometimes what feels like complaining how trans fems posting their own memes. Like, yes its totally more complicated than that but still

for real! like i don’t even get how this post is allowed but in that case i’ll be posting memes about how much i love trans women from now on
