Edit - I changed the phrase "aggressive support to "unambiguous support", as there was some confusion over the intent behind my previous phrasing.

Can you explain the girldick thing? I'm a transman and that comes off as one of the many things that are low key alienating in expressions of support, but it's possible I'm just mistaken.

The original reference (which triggered the OP to post) is a cis man saying he wouldn't sleep with a pre op trans woman.

He said something along the lines that girldick is disgusting, I'm saying it's hot.

If that's problematic I can delete (not sure how that works on lemmy though). I would rather hear it from a trans woman though. If you want to discuss, go for it.

I'm not the person you were seeking clarification from but I took her comment to mean that she is a cis woman that's sexually attracted to women, but also enjoys P.I.V. sex. Therfore she would be happy to discover that a woman she is attracted to has a penis.

That's just my interpretation though.

How far removed from the instigating post is that? It doesn't seem all that different if we're immediately diving into fuckables and unfuckables.

I think you're saying I didn't help you understand her position, fair enough.

I mean this post is a place to voice support for the trans community and she said she likes having lesbian sex with trans women. I don't think the statement was meant to support trans men, just trans women. Trans women tend to be the focus of a lot of the conversation. I think trans men and trans women have different experiences with transphobia and need different supports. If you'd like to talk about your feelings I'd be interested to learn.

But also, she's a lesbian so again it's not too surprising that she would center women in her comment.

I'm a cis het man that wants to support you. It occurs to me that the less time men spend thinking and talking about lesbian sex, the better adjusted they are. So I'm going to excuse myself from this conversation. Good luck out there man. I'm pulling for ya.
