Mx Verda<p>who are cis people? What is a cis man? What makes a man cis? What makes a man trans? </p><p>(in case anyone wants to misrepresent any of this video or my posting of it -- no one is or should be disposable. Even if you don't like them. <br>I might say otherwise in my own personal experiences with a handful of people who have behaved unconscionably towrd me, but that's neither my ideal nor what I think would bring a better world.<br>Even less so on demographic grounds. Like, I understand if Person A abuses you, yeah you will be experiencing a range of emotions -- or shutdown, or cycle through them. But that's individual, not systemic. anyway.)</p><p>Obvious one we should all be able to agree on tho: posturing based on attacking others is not "real" gender. It's just insecurity getting defensive at other people. </p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_k8aMvIV0Q" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=D_k8aMvIV0</span><span class="invisible">Q</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/femmephobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>femmephobia</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bottom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bottom</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bottoms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bottoms</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bottoming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bottoming</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/queer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>queer</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/gay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gay</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/gays" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gays</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/les" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>les</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/lesbian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lesbian</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/lesbians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lesbians</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bi</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bisexual" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bisexual</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/bis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bis</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/queers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>queers</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/sex" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sex</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/SexEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SexEd</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/SexualOrientation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SexualOrientation</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/Sexual" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sexual</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/sexuality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sexuality</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/masc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>masc</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/masculinity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>masculinity</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/PositiveMasculinity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PositiveMasculinity</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gender</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/behaviour" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>behaviour</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/people" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>people</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/human" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>human</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/person" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>person</span></a> <a href="https://lgbtqia.space/tags/gendered" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gendered</span></a></p>
