MODERATORS
I mean, unless you were raised by hippy parents who raised you androgynous from birth, if you are a trans woman, you experienced male socialization. All that means is people treated you like a male. It doesn't mean anything beyond that. Socialization refers to things external to you.
I think there's a degree of internalized transphobia in rejecting such a clear and straight forward concept. I get not wanting to acknowledge our pasts, but it is internally transphobic to deny one's own trans experiences.
There's nothing shameful about having been socialized male.
Ew. I have nothing more to say to you if you're gonna start asserting things about me. Disengaging from this conversation and I hope you will too.
So you can accuse others of internalized transphobia, but not the other way around?
You directly accused me of internalised transphobia. I mentioned that internalized transphobia may be a factor in some people's attachment to the concept. Disengage.
