nocountryforlesbians:

the worst part of the “cotton ceiling” is that it isn’t about lesbians who are transphobic or “terfs”. it was specifically about lesbians who supported trans women, viewed them as women, and welcomed them into their spaces, but just didn’t want to sleep with them.

“cis lesbians’ tendency to support trans causes generally but draw the line at sleeping with trans women or including trans lesbians in their sexual communities”

“cis queer women will be friends with us and talk day and night about trans rights and ending transmisogyny, but will still not consider us viable sexual partners.”

It isn’t enough for you to be their friend, fight for trans rights, accept their view of gender identity, and use their preferred name and pronouns. It’s all meaningless to them if you won’t also fuck a transwoman. It’s male entitlement to women’s bodies by another name.
