crypto thread Anonymous 03/12/23 (Sun) 04:40:36 PM No. 11642

>A person who conceals or masks their gender-critical views, especially from friends or within trans-inclusive spaces.

Thread for cryptos to share tips, vent, and talk about why they're crypto and if they're going to stay crypto. Have you managed to peak anyone by being crypto?

Any celebs you suspect of being crypto? picrel she kept her daughter from trooning out by letting her experiment with androgyny. jolie has also actually left the western feminist bubble

My workplace and family didn't fall for gender ideology so irl I can be a terf, but every online space I'm in is infested by TRA and troons alike so I'm crypto on all social media.

I will never post or interract with troons on my own and I keep it polite and short to anyone who brings it up. At most I will make statments like "of course I support LGBT issues! I have many gay friends who I love and support" so I can be seen as an ally while still changing the focus away from trans and onto gay people instead. That way if they insist on keeping the conversation up I can largerly ignore any trans opinions and focus on supporting gay people by going "my gay friends say this and that…".

Some example of cryptoterf excuses:

>Why don't you talk about trans issues?
(if you don't do any activism)I don't talk about poiltics on social media because no meaningful political conversation has nor will ever happen on twitter or tiktok. I only talk with the real people around me who matter and who can make actual change.
(if you occasionally do activism for other things)I don't personally know any trans people that well and I only listen to my closest friends when it comes to any kind of "activism", so I would go to my close gay friends to support the exact LGBT activism they say is good and valid. That way I don't accidentally support a bad person or organisation, such as Autism Speaks or Peta which both famously turned out to harm the people and animals they're supposedly helping. It would feel wrong to promote trans things when I have no idea if they're correct or if trans people even agree with them.

>Why don't you have your pronouns in bio?
(if you're ESL) English is not my first language and that isn't a common thing here. My local friends would think I'm a ameriboo and make fun of me if I had foreign pronouns in my bio, it would be like a weeb having japanese they can't even read in their bio just to look cool.
(if you don't have your own face as a pfp) Men in the past have been really intimidating and sexist when they found out I'm female so I'd rather keep myself anonymous at first glance so only my friends or people who stick around know I'm female. I think there is value to letting women and minority groups be anonymous online to prevent discrimination.
(fake woke excuse) I don't really like labels and I'm not sure what gender I am or if I'm like agender or something so I don't feel comfortable putting anything solid down. It's like if I actually write it down it becomes more real so I want to kind of figure myself out first.

>Trans women are women, right?
(lie to get them to drop their guard but don't repeat the phrase) Yeah, of course. Oh speaking of X, here's another thing… (immediatedly change topic)

Another fake-woke argument I've read for not having pronouns in bio is that they're actually problematic, because some people might be closeted or just because someone has a certain identity doesn't mean they inherently use certain pronouns. I kind of like saying that I'm "any pronouns" (except "it" or something made up) while only calling myself a woman, just to kind of show that's meaningless, and I don't care about "misgendering". Why should I care if someone calls me a "he" when I'm clearly a woman and look like one, lmao.

good thread idea anon.

i've been playing ignorant with some people, and just asking basic questions as if i know nothing about the gender debate. which always results in the other person saying something along the lines of "yeah… I know it doesn't really make much sense but… I dunno" or "I know what you mean… but…umm"

you can tell a lot of people just don't want to think about the logic or reality and want to be kind and it's fun to watching them expose how fickle their support actually is, just by asking innocent dumb questions about gender.

in the end they sympathise with my confusion because they know they can't explain it. i don't know if this will make them re-evaluate their stance though, that is yet to be seen.

Yep, I take art commissions and like participating in fandom projects, so I have to be crypto to not be blacklisted everywhere. Has anyone succeeded in finding fandom friends that aren't gender believers as a crypto? Sometimes I'll see people with no pronouns who never touch trans topics and wonder, but I'm not bold enough to risk outing myself by asking them.

Seconding this strategy, it works to protect yourself and you can get away with being a tiny bit "terfy and ignorant". I think it works best with 1 or 2 basic questions before you change the topic as if you're not really that interested.

>>11750
What do you need to do to not be blacklisted? I'm fairy certain I'm blacklisted in a few spaces based only on not having pronouns in bio kek these people can't handle anyone having a different opinion than themselves

>>11753
nta but I think saying things that a normie would think but that are now seen as evil and bigoted can work. Like saying "trans people are men/women who feel like they were born in the wrong body and like they should have been born as a man/woman instead right"? "i don't really understand non-binary, how is it trans if you're not transitioning at all", "wait but boys can like pink and barbies too, that doesn't mean it's a sign a boy is trans, right? it's so sexist to say that being a girl means you like pink and barbie". "Only transwomen who had the vagina operation go into female changing rooms right? no real woman even if trans would want to expose little girls changing there to dicks, that would be so creepy and gross"

If you’re crypto anywhere but at work you need to cut that shit out. I genuinely believe you are all contributing to this madness and for what? To avoid a brief potentially awkward encounter? Nearly every time irl when I say my opinion when trans shit comes up non-gendies agree with me like they were just waiting for someone else to say it out loud to have permission to think. Quit being such a coward, you don’t have to go around making every conversation into how you think all male trannies are pedo just say something honest if the topic is brought up by someone.

I do art and I do commissions, I'm also on twitter.
Everytime I see my husbandos (which are all "golden retriever" men, what a coincidence.) with top surgery scars I puke in my mouth a little but I guess the tifs and tims money that don't know where it ends up to quickly soften the nausea.
I also refuse to put my pronouns, saying that not only it makes me extremely uncomfortable, but I stated before that I want people to look at my art, not me, so whatever they want to call me it's fine, since I don't care at all about misgendering and some guy calling me a dude will not ruin my day. I hate that I have to play the "My gender doesn't matter!!!" card to be left alone but I think that this fad will go away in some years and either I will see people acting like nothing ever happened or disappear completely to avoid shame. I suspect that Marina is a crypto but sadly her fanbase is ex tumblrinas so she has to keep up with this shit, poor woman.

I've been honest with real life friends and family members since I know we can disagree on things peacefully, but there's no way fandom people on twitter are going to do anything but call me an evil genocide lover, so why bother arguing with them when I'm trying to have fun watching my silly shows?

I'm the collector of TIF friends somehow.

Best friend is a TIF. Not a weird fujo but one of the butch lesbian "trutrans" variety that trooned out because she couldn't handle the expectations from her hyper conservative korean family who wanted her to get married to a nice korean man and have 3 children by age 22. I love her to death but I know the second I bring up GC shit, that's the end of our friendship right there. She already called all the JK Rowling stuff "terf dogwhistling" and I asked her if she read it and she said no, fucking lmao. She was the one who could benefit from reading it the most.

Then one of my writing buddies online also trooned, got top surgery and everything. When I met her she was just a cool lesbian living with her partner and then in less than a year she got gender therapy and cut off her tits. It's a good thing she did that because that instantly killed all of my desire to be her friend.

It makes me incredibly sad tbh, I feel like everytime I gain a cool GNC girlfriend, I lose her to troon shit. I'm only crypto to the bestie though, everyone else knows I'm GC. Luckily our friendships don't overlap. I do feel that inevitably she will figure it out and it will instantly implode our friendship of 10+ years. Just waiting for that moment, tbh.

Depends on the gendie and what you guys have in common. A handful of my friends are gendies, but they don't base every living day of their existence on them being gendies so it's easy to focus on the things that the foundation of our friendships are based on before I peaked.

the culling of cool GNC lesbians is real and makes me very sad. one of my best friends i've had since childhood has always had body dysphoria and hated having breasts etc. since puberty - this was long before the gender shit was a thing. for a long while she was starting to work through it, after she came out and got into feminism and learned that performative femininity was bullshit and there was a reason puberty made her uncomfortable etc. but now she has been given this new shiny explanation for all her experiences as a woman not fitting right and think she is just getting sucked in. plus she equates trans and non binary people with "being gender non-conforming" which is especially annoying. I've tried subtly questioning her and saying "but aren't those things the opposite?" but felt like i reached a limit before i would have to go full terf-mode and definitely don't want to lose her friendship. i will put up a huge fight if she starts taking hormones or considering surgery though.

I’m crypto mainly to keep one specific childhood friend who is a mega TRA. If she didn’t exist I wouldn’t care… I post about Hogwarts Legacy in my “close friends” stories that she can’t view. I wouldn’t be surprised if a couple of other friends were disappointed by it bc I care a lot about general social justice like racial issues and obviously feminism. but they at least know that it’s stupid to care that much about a game.

I also shared one of Laetitia Ky’s posts to my public story recently. If anyone simply clicked the post and read the caption they would see I’m supporting a TERF. Kind of hidden in plain view I guess kek.

To avoid losing our jobs nona. They have proven to harass workplaces and family members of complete nobodies for speaking up online. I can't speak against it but I can completely ignore it and not give it attention. I can only talk freely with people in person, which I do so they know exactly how deranged these people are.

>>11774
Yes, but any time they bring up gender stuff it's annoying as all hell, but they can peak. I've had woke friends who are now peaked terfs.

Pretty sure Lauren Mayberry is crypto. Prominent feminist, speaks out and posts about lots of social issues but completely silent on trannies and gender shit. A few years ago she was harassed and receiving death/rape threats for speaking out against Chris Brown, so I can definitely understand wanting to just live in peace these days without stirring the pot. I have a good feeling about her and really hope I’m not wrong.

yes you can definitely have gendie and handmaiden friends as a crypto but i think it's wise to keep in mind that not everyone will be open to being peaked or peakable at all. some will be open to it depending on the issue being discussed and their own personal experiences but some just won't allow themselves to open up to the "wrong" way of thinking and risk getting weird and aggressive.

It sucks because with everyone I would love to see be GC, I know that "coming out" would essentially end their career and even ruin their lives. For non-celebs the stakes are a bit lower though we still may risk jobs or relationships. At least we won't be subject to stalkers who send rape and death threats. As much as I'd love to see someone like Dolly Parton say that men can never be women, I know it's just a wild fantasy.

I tried to see if an old internet friend was a TRA by joking about teenagers taking over the internet with their pronouns and such but she ignored what I said and we talked about other stuff instead. I didn't think it was too forward because we used to be real and mean like that all the time. Sad because her sister and mom are lesbians especially her mom is gnc butch so I would have thought they'd all be fellow terfies but maybe not kek.
Also I'm in this weeb women's community and various discords as a crypto. There's TiFs and pathetic enbie women in their mid 30s everywhere but at least everyone's female kek.

I have to be crypto because I'm in music too and the scene is painfully woke where I am. It sucks because some gendies are genuinely nice people in casual conversation. Hilariously though, the second I have alone time with a non-TRA it's like they're dying to talk about how silly and irritating they find it. I truly believe a lot of people act politically correct and kind in public but have peaked a long time ago in their minds. In creative industries in particular, optics and reputation are so crucial and easily shattered that you can't risk saying one easily misinterpreted word/dogwhistle. I have to play dumb all the fucking time and pretend I don't know about trans rights.
It's tiring nonnas. I feel like I'm always looking over my shoulder. I'd make a gc twitter or something but I've been off social media for a while and I feel like it'd just make me more unnecessarily outraged and upset on the daily. Reading lolcor comforts me enough in knowing there's more cryptos out there.

It really goes to show how a lot of libfems really don't give a shit about women who are abused in any capacity. It makes me so sick tbh. I also really don't like how right-wing men tend to hijack threads made by terfs to propel their own bullshit, if i ran an account i would block them right away and tell them to fuck off.

Same. I made the account so I could follow TERFy people without being noticed but it ended up being too intense. And I watched women I respect start to become unhinged from it all, the more they got sucked into arguments with TRAs and going down rabbit holes. Part of me wants them to take it easy but we also need women speaking up as much as possible. But I don't think you can be consistently involved in that conversation, every day, and not become crazy in some way. The gaslighting, abuse, completely nonsensical arguments is too much.

whenever i see a terfy hashtag trending now, it's always overtaken by right wing moids (nearly always matt walsh) that are just piggybacking off of feminist arguments, that in reality they don't give a shit about but are just using one aspect of an argument to push their anti-LGBT or whatever.
it reminds me of how Tommy Robinson made the grooming gang story a right-wing issue by piggy-backing off of feminists who first raised the alarm for girl's safety, and then he distorted it into an anti-muslim thing. all the women's hard work in uncovering and trying to protect those girls was now undermined by Tommy foaming at the mouth about immigrants. this kind of shit is always happening.

i peaked recently and a few months before that, my online friend (also autistic because of course she is) came out as genderspecial (literally just wanted people to call her fake pronouns and identified as enby because it "felt right"). i played insanely stupid about feeling enby too but i am not sure what gender identity even means i overthought it i'm just so dumb and confused :(

and naturally she was unable to tell me anything coherent and kept sidestepping the question lmao. i pushed harder and said i fell into a rabbit hole and i didn't know there was so much controversy about
being trans and i just don't know who to trust. she talked about how it's okay that i still need to "educate myself" but that those views are causing trans people to get genocide'd and parents of trans kids have to escape the states (absolute bs like "life saving healthcare", made me want to barf).

i just ended up being like i'm sorry idk what i'm talking about i'm tired. she didn't get mad because she's a pretty good person (why i am trying to peak her) but she's been in a genderspecial community for so long and has many, many troon friends, so i'm not sure if it's possible. might risk it and make a last ditch effort by sending her a link to "the new backlash" but then not push it and going full crypto on being gc because all the spaces i'm in are full of trannies and i don't feel like being ostracized currently thank you very much.(. :( )

This is my issue kek sometimes I consider just openly pretending to be woke because it's the norm, but I just can't live with people thinking I support child genital mutilation and that I denounce real science even if every woke person around me thinks it's all ok. My moral compass just won't allow it. My moral compass would however let me take their money and donate it to anti-troon causes against their knowledge.

I'm gonna lose it. Even when they complain about men hating on women's interests, men get to be labeled men while women are "vague unknown entities who are the primary audience of such interest but must not be named because it triggers my and all my aiden friends' fragile mental states to see this category of people be applied to my interest". As if the act of calling it a women's interest is somehow worse than moids seeing us brainless subhumans on the basis of being female. I feel for TiFs and their dysphoria and their method of coping in a woman-hating world, I really do. But I am so sick of them.

This is extremely based, honestly. When I was a kid I was a "tomboy" and used to tell my parents that I wanted to be a boy, and I'm so fucking glad my parents didn't take that seriously and just let me play and be a kid. I grew out of it once I got into high school, turns out I'm a bisexual woman who loves being feminine and also being outdoorsy and shit. I can't imagine how upset I'd be now if I had woke 2023 parents who made me troon out as a child just because I liked playing with action figures in the dirt with the boys.

Yeah, I feel lonely knowing I'm possibly the only sane person in that space. If I didn't have a few peaked friends and lc to vent on I'd go insane. I try to limit my time in those spaces now because I realized no one can grow as a person nor thrive in a space where mistakes and honesty isn't allowed.

The TRA community is practically the definition of toxic positivity: always affirm, be kind at your own expense, reality and truth is too mean so we must deny it, disagreement is seen as violence, honest mistakes are acts of internal bigotry.

These people will rarely get out of the cult unless they want to themselves, they will only spiral further and there is nothing you can do to a whole group. For the sake of your own mental health you should really try to stay out of those spaces and find better ones. You know these people will not accept you as you are, they will not tolerate your thoughts the way you are tolerating theirs despite knowing the harm they cause - are they really your friends?

sorry for necro but i need to vent. i made friends with a girl today at my liberal arts “gender diverse” women’s college today and we get along so well! she’s in my major and we both love our subjects and we want to do similar work over the summer. but then she starts talking (out of nowhere) about how she dropped her friend because this girl is a radical feminist, specifically because she was anti sex work and “believed women are oppressed”. i wanted to rip my hair out. and i just had to play along.

it’s so depressing making new friends you actually like for once and then realizing they would drop you in a heartbeat if they knew anything about you. it’s so disillusioning. i feel so isolated because almost everyone is like this, and i constantly have to perform. i also have adhd and as a result i tend to blurt stuff out and say more than i mean to, so i am terrified i am going to betray myself. i just feel worn out from having to so carefully monitor myself so often.

I'm newly peaked so for now I'm keeping quiet and waiting until the shock of learning the truth wears off. If I let my emotions take over, I will sound like a hateful rambling alt-right nazi scitzo lunatic TERF and my words will be dismissed. And it's really fucking hard because the deeper I go into this rabbit hole, the more insane it gets.
For example:
>The World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), the international association which sets guidelines for the medical ‘transitioning’ of children, has been collaborating with participants of a fetish forum that hosts and produces fictional child pornography and extreme sadomasochistic content.
https://reduxx.info/top-trans-medical-association-collaborated-with-castration-child-abuse-fetishists/

If I came across this article a year ago, I'd think it's some misinformation spread by hateful bigots and wouldn't even bother to read it. And here we are.
Most of my friends end up agreeing with my GC takes but still respect trannies pronouns because well, they (my friends) are good and well-meaning people who don't want to be mean and offend anyone. I don't want to lose any more people, so I'll take it slow.

I always wonder if those types of women (misogynists in mostly female spaces) only like men because they're not around them so they conflate their fantasies of future male partners with men irl.
What opened my eyes to men early on was the way men acted online, especially when they thought they were only around each other. I made the mistake of joining an old school star wars forum back in the day and my experience there always sticks with me. Not to mention 4chan and reddit.

I don't know how you even tolerate their presence, the second I hear extreme gendie shit from people's mouths I've already relegated them to nothing more than an acquaintance. If she'd choose to side with sex offenders in skirts over you then is she really worth your unconditional love? Unless you're going to attempt to slowly peak them, don't waste your time. There are actually some women out there who are more neutral about the subject and won't crucify you on the spot for presenting different ideas, as long as you aren't too extreme about it

My best friend turned into a troon too, at first it wasn't bad but the last few years of our friendship all she talked about was wasting her college fund on a tit chop and eventually started referring to women only as 'bitches' and getting deeper and deeper into the gendie cult. She didn't even sound like she had an original thought. She did some shit to me too so I cut her off and even though I still miss her every day it was such a huge relief. If I'd met her today I wouldn't have gone near her, at least I have the memories. Hope you nonna's can work it out somehow, it will be okay.

i am so exhausted. im becoming closer friends with these girls at my college and we have long, lively conversations in our dining hall and spend hours talking about anything and everything. and today i brought up the idea of beauty rituals and how anti pornography i am… and they agreed with me! keep in mind we haven’t known each other super long yet and being antiporn is super “terfy” apparently. but i did my best not to mention gender. though one girl was like, sexuality has to do with actual sex yknow… and i couldn’t tell if she was talking about genitals or having sex, because both were relevant to the conversation. they also joked about me being anti pornography. i am hopeful but also terrified because i can’t tell if they were just agreeing with me to be passive/get along or actually agree.

i go to a very very very very terf-phobic school, like public ostracization if you’re even considered a terf and since i’m the head of the gay club it’s double danger. so it’s very dangerous and you have to be annoyingly careful, because people here LOVE to hate and are extremely catty and insane. i don’t know. it’s very stressful being crypto and having to constantly monitor yourself, especially since i accidentally got too comfortable too fast. i’m trying to practice thinking before i speak. it’s just difficult and a lot of energy. i wish people could just agree to disagree and leave it at that, but it turns into a sort of social witch-hunt.

I was pretty crypto for a while, then two years ago I got a gf who was nonbinary at the time and I respected her because I really did love her still. I tried to be a lot more open about it, but I always found a way to wince at TIMs and feel pity for TIFs. Then, about a year ago now she's come out of being nonbinary without me saying a word, surprisingly thanks to the barbie movie and meeting other TIMs and TIFs irl in some gay club, which made her rethink the whole thing. Made her realize that she just didn't feel like a stereotypical girl is all because she is not super pink or frilly. Now we are both really terfy for sure.
It's easier for her to be out about it since her campus doesn't care, but mine is very ""inclusive"" to say the least. Last thing I want to do is be friends with some guy, they're always a risk, and being friends with another woman is hard since they usually are pro-porn and tirfs. I'm happy to have my gf but other than that, total crypto.

I know it can feel isolating when you first peak, nonna. I also have a lot of rabid TRA friends and even some friends that have trooned out. Though I’ve kept my distance more from troons now because I’ve realized they’re always unapologetic degenerate coomers and often narcs, I’ve come to accept that I’ll have to overlook differing beliefs if I want to have friends in liberal circles. Occasionally I drop some of my real views, gently, like how I don’t support troons competing in women’s sports, and I’ve never received any backlash for it. I do genuinely believe more and more people are starting to realize that gender ideology is stupid, or that it’s at least gone too far

I'm in the same boat, but I've kinda started showing my actual female friends screencaps of males being awful & links to news stories and pointing out how it's ALWAYS MEN pulling the awful shit and I've successfully gotten them in full agreement that most men are indeed evil. I've carefully floated rephrased SCUM manifesto things and they ALL agreed with it every single time. Even my genderspecial girl friends. AFAIK, none of them have read it, or at least have never openly said they have. I've also never directly asked, purely out of fear!
They still will say all troons are valid & TIMs are women tho, and gladly include them when they want to be… I really wonder how many of them are just trying to be careful & avoid trouble. I just try to avoid having to give my opinion about troons whenever possible, and never ask. However, one of my close friends admitted that she thinks a large number of TIMs are just AGP, when we spoke at length about Chris Chan in private.

You're right, it's super hard. Walking on eggshells sucks but like.. Sometimes you can plant a little seed, or get tiny little admissions, or get them thinking. They probably agree with more than you think, if they're women. It's just really hard to get anyone to admit anything because we're all so scared of being rejected by our whole circle friends. It feels super culty, it reminds me of when I was leaving my religion, and I don't like it. I still love those friends though..

You don’t have to do anything extreme like block or unfriend them on social media, just stop messaging them, mute or unfollow them if you want, and focus on spending time with sane friends IRL.

This is so creepy because it's like it's made for children, those with a childlike mentality, or some form of repression/trauma around their genitals or sex characteristics. Who cares that much about the names of things as an adult? No mature adult worries about calling their vagina cute names (unless they grew up being extremely shameful about vaginas).
It's gross that a big chunk of transition feels focused around keeping people in an infantilized state while calling itself "therapy". Though it makes sense when you know they target autists and anyone in an infantilized state is more likely to walk into a therapist's office and unconditionally trust and follow the path in life they tell them to follow for a "better and easier life". "Trust the adults to tell you what's best for you but we'll make you think it's your idea cause you're letting us 'guide' you". Much easier to guide you down the path of lifelong medicalization if you want people to dictate your life for you and you trust others to do the thinking more than yourself

Right? There's merit to be had in proper packaging and troons have that down pat with their constant assertions of victimhood and "genocide" while everybody classically hates an angry woman who doesn't know how to sell herself. We need to be more strategic about this.
But it's hard when the cause is something that's so difficult to be public about. And furthermore, so many who do grouo up and get public about it then turn around and get into bed with right wingers for the ironic male protection of it all. I feel bleak about this often.

I used to be a tra and with my interests being in anime and I attracted troon friends like a magnet, not even on purpose. But now i've been secretly peaked for a few months and what pushed me over the edge was seeing TiM boxer "Fallon Fox" beat up a women in a ring and popped a euphoria psycho boner saying like "yeahhhh wasn't that a nice sight to see" and I was like fuck i've got this whole trans shit wrong. Of course the reasons for men and women to transition are diffrent but nevertheless I realized how fucked women have been by accepting and coddling this shit me included. While i'm not close to some of the few troon friends I have, I'm starting to regret being friends at all with any of them at all especially all the fucking eggshells I have to walk on but on the other hand I feel like with there being no other reason to drop them aside from their delusions since technically they haven't done anything bad to me, i'm kinda stuck with them with if I do drop them I run the risk of committing total social suicide and being suspected as a terf. I'm jealous of the nona's who don't run into this ideology irl cause as a SoCal fag even if I go out of my way to avoid troons, I still see them at school, I see them at work, I overhear non tranny tra's talking about trans rights in public and I also have handmaidens in my life that I also just can't drop unfortunately. It's like something is in the fucking air, like the smog is filled with cross sex hormones making everybody retarded. On one hand this is my home but on the other hand I fucking hate here it's so annoying. I feel so alone sometimes, I wish to have JK Rolling levels of fuck you money so that I can be ideologically free but all I can do is hang on to a sliver of hope that this will all comedown eventually somehow, someway even if it makes me as delusional as a tranny

im sort of in the same position. honestly im just ghosting them and just attributing it to just naturally growing apart with age because I dont have the energy to even argue with these people anymore.
idk what to say to this really, but try to just learn to tolerate being around these people since unfortunately they will be in our working/education spaces until the tide changes, but don't ever involve them in your life or become enmeshed with them in any way. If youre feeling brave enough try being subtle and bring up terfy viewpoints and see if theres someone in your group of friends that seem more open minded. I got to still keep certain friends because either they dont give a shit about politics too much, or i was kind of an anchor they'd be able to lean on when they want to secretly complain about TRA's.

Being a crypto is so isolating. I peaked about 3-4 years ago, of course I'm a fucking zoomer too so all my peers either support or are trannies. I can only trash talk trannies in front of my boyfriend and mom, I'm so completely done with having to switch my thoughts to pc when I'm with other people. The thing is too that I'm sure a lot of people think this way as well, they're just not vocal about it.

This is kinda stupid, but I've heard nonnies complain about it so I'll share it anyways. I used to be semi-popular in a community for MxM art on twitter. I exclusively drew the bottom as biologically male for obvious reasons, then came the bitching on curiouscat from self-inserting tifs and handmaidens alike demanding why I wouldn't draw (certain character) as ftm or like/follow anyone that does because he was heavily headcanoned as trans. I replied and went on a tirade about how I choose not to interact with ftm trans content because I was traumatized from being forced into transition by an abuser and it's heavily triggering. I had to include shit about being forced into it because if they had perceived that I was a detransitioner I knew I'd get shit on even further and labeled transphobic. It worked wonders and even dissuaded the commisioners from asking for ftm art, because trannies operate on a system of trauma/oppression levels, the worse it is the more protected you are. If your problem is the opposite (FxF artist being pressured into drawing mtf/futa shit) I honestly don't know how you could relent rabid mtfs from not harassing you with rape threats even if you do make up a story about an abuser. Tifs for a fact are substantially less of threats than the tims are.

Agree with >>24067 on just ignoring them, they usually get tired after awhile. I'm surprised you even got away with the forced transition explanation because I've seen so many troons shit on detransitioners for simply feeling like they were pressured to transition and didn't use the word forced.

I think saying something like "I don't draw trans content because I'm cis and I don't want to speak over trans people/misrepresent them" also works. This goes for any left-leaning related stuff but as long as you wrap your reasoning in wokespeak (like trauma as you said, making it into a privilege/representation thing, or just asskissing the group in question) they'll accept your explanation.

I feel like I'm always just observing people in group chats I'm in talking about how it's so bad and trannyphobic or whatever to say (thing I believe), and generally try to not engage in those topics at all around them. It always gives me this feeling of whiplash and I struggle to respect most people when they would hate me if they really knew how I think. I've always felt isolated and like others don't understand me so this troon brainworm they have is just an extension of that feeling. I've never felt comfortable around normies and now even fellow nerds and weirdos on the internet are all people I can't feel comfortable with either like I used to since they're all retarded and believe in this shit. It's even worse because people keep trooning out in circles I'm a part of and then the trannies think I'm supportive of them even though I never really say anything positive (or negative) and constantly beg for my validation…And then I have to find ways around it since validating troons and their misogynistic shit makes me want to blow my brains out. I shouldn't have to hide my opinions or feel like I'm a "bad" person for recognizing basic shit, it's really annoying and makes me hate people and how stupid they are

I’m in a weird spot where one of my best friends is a genderspesh but she always agrees with me on radfem rhetoric lol. She hates men, is suspicious of anyone male including TiMs, identifies as misandrist, hates most porn (she’s fine with like fanfic erotica), thinks most TiFs are pickmes, etc etc. But she respects everyone’s gendie pronouns and uses they/she. I think honestly she grapples with really bad sex dysphoria due to trauma stuff and the only thing that keeps her from straight up TiFing out is that she isn’t an idiot & she SUPER identifies with lesbianism and butchness. I hope for her.

It's all so exhausting, I feel like I'm tearing myself apart. I'm not a professioanl artist but I still do love art, painting, drawing, music, etc, so my friend group has always been made up of progressive artsy people. I'm pretty progressive and liberal myself, so it was all good for a while.

Until the troon menace came. Now it's gender this, nonbinary that, the most vile troons, both tim and tif, saying the most vile shit, and all I can do is pretend I don't want them all to die in a fire. Even the normal ones now play the gender game, talk about trans rights, etc. Most of the parties now are free for trans people. Wtf man. They're a higher caste now. Fuck I want to cry and shout from the top of my lungs YOU'RE NOT A FUCKING WOMAN/MAN, YOU'RE DESTROYING WOMEN'S AND GAY RIGHTS!

I recently made a new social media account (not going to specify which) which I wanted to use to post about the fandom I'm in, but unfortunately said fandom is completely infested with trannies, to the point where just avoiding them isn't really an option if I want to make friends in it. At least it's a very female-targeted media with hot guys so I only have to deal with TIFs and not TIMs. My profile makes it clear I'm a woman but I also haven't mentioned anything to do with trannyism, only my thoughts about the character I like in said fandom and always using male pronouns for him. I've been fine being crypto like that so far (I think, anyway) but I do block TIMs and other undesirables on sight and I do worry that would be my undoing if it was found out.
I recently got the discord of a mutual I really wanted to be better friends with, I won't elaborate for obvious reasons, we've talked a little but all I want to do is see if I can peak her out of the nonbinary nonsense, she's worth saving from the cult to me. It hasn't come up in conversation yet but I'm so worried of anything I try to attempt not being successful and I scare her off a result.

I was part of the enstars fandom (I'm assuming it's that one or maybe project sekai) and I became friends with a she/they lesbian. I had a huge crush on her and we would talk so much everyday. One day I just said, fuck it, and I told her I was a radfem. She took it surprisingly well? She told me she didn't really mind, it's not like she had any DNI in her bio or whatever and she didn't care about me being a radfem. I guess she realized I wasn't the monster trannies always describe and like to whine about when talking about radical feminists, kekw. And she was pretty chill overall. I did use the tranny pronouns for Arashi out of respect for her though. I just liked her so much. We ended up ghosting each other after three months, but I hope everything goes well for you, non.

Do you ever feel like some of your RL friends are crypto too? I had this interesting discussion the other day with two good friends where it really sounded to me like they were heavily hinting at being crypto as well. It felt like we were all pretending to believe in trutrans because of the climate of paranoia (if one of us turns out not to agree, the rest is gonna get the terf label slapped on and all that it entails) but the tone and the eyes were kind of saying it all to me. It really hurts to have to keep it to yourself.

Maybe it's the female socialisation in me, but do any other nonnas sometimes feel guilty for "deceiving" TIF friends by not being upfront about how we truly feel about troonshit? I've known some fandom people for over 5 years now and they're genuinely kind (a lot kinder than I am) but their heads are buried so far down in the sand about gender crap. They don't even have the excuse that they're young, they're in their mid 30s.

I have one Tif friend who sadly started transitioning at 15 and is now, 14 years later, doing pretty bad healthwise. We haven't seen eachother for a couple of years but met up recently, i turned up in my harry potter scarf and i misgendered everybody trans we talked about but her and she didn't give a fuck. I was also saying that you can always tell who's a dude anyway, she said it depends on how expensice surgeries they get, but didn't get offended by me. I think it went well, i didn't have to lie, i was just more nonchalant about things but got my points across. She knows doctors fucked her up, health insurace company fucked her up revealing recently that the only brand of testosterone that was payed by insurace was the the most toxic one. It's quite horrible when you know your life is ruined and you can't do anything about it anymore so i'm compassionate with her. This meeting confirmed so may things i was afraid are happening. For the years we didn't see eachother i was afraid that she'll hate me for misgendering the other people we know but she was quite angry at troons too. Especially our troon classmate who's spreading propaganda at schools and tried to fuck her when she was drunk one time. Vile dead eyed creature.

I go to a school that’s well known/prestigious in my profession (animation) and I have a somewhat sizable following for someone in my community. It makes me kek so hard that I’m surrounded by untalented, navel gazing troons, tifs, and handmaidens 24/7 in real life and in my online sphere and I’m somehow managing being super crypto while also having plausible deniability because. You know. I want to have a job in this troon friendly profession. not trying to navel gaze myself, but it my sphere alot of said gendie/troon peers respect/ look up to me/are bitter and jealous and it gives me a mini ego trip that I’m also their political enemy KEK
If it makes you nonnas feel any better, the students who work their asses off in animation and actually end up getting jobs/internships and don’t end up e begging on Twitter drawing porn are non gendie or crypto women.

I'm pretending I don't know or care about any of that stuff irl but my friends are getting on my nerves saying TRA bullshit everyday and trying to see if I agree. We could be talking about work, our families, our hobbies, etc. and it's always the same one trying to force the conversation to be about politics, JKR being a demonic transphobe, troons she started following on instagram, etc. If she or the other friend find out I don't see men as women and never will I wonder how they would react, but I'd be worried they'd ruin things for me to punish me. They're not the type of people who do that usually but they're so weird when they repeat TRA talking points I really don't know. What's funny is that I can easily guess out other friends who moved to other cities and who we see a lot less often irl don't see troons as women at all and are closer to being normies in general so it's easy to guess but the topic never comes up when we see each other irl so I know they don't have to worry about it.

I'm not sure I can call myself crypto online, I made it easy to avoid troons online even if it makes fandoms really empty. I barely use social media anyway.

If they were normal sure. If they started talking about how brave and stunning tims are and I told them to avoid the topic around me for this reason they'd suspect I'm transphobic. They're both the type who expect more from anyone who's a straight white man to the point where one of them is black and hates herself enough to positively compare white tims to black women all the time. I'm a minority too so I'm sure they would try to start shit with me over this. What I'm doing right now is ignoring them online and accepting to hang out with them irl less often but not only for this reason, I'm too normal and out of touch for them these days. I used to be the one initiating conversations online and once I stopped bothering they didn't make any efforts to compensate and I know other people around me like my relatives and coworkers aren't TRAs and don't talk about this topic.

i'm able to find like-minded people by being truthful but very overly kind when the topic arrises, i can go around with arguments like "i don't think i'm able to truly grasp that a trans person is the gender they identify, specially if they don't look like it. i tend to instinctively see trans as a separate gender from men and women, to be honest" and it turns out most people in trans-inclusive spaces think that way. idk if i ever peaked someone, but i managed to get actual honest opinions from a lot of people who were very defensive of trannies.
blogpost incoming
even though acting that way never brought me much animosity, i once managed to deeply upset someone from a rather numerous online fandom friend group i was in. she was an autistic 19yo yaoi crazed tif who wanted to make an "emergency" discord call with the entire group to ""frame"" me for transphobia. luckily nobody seemed to care except some bpdchan friend of hers and they left the group lol

I'm crypto because everyone in my life is a troon or a tra. Even my own Dad called me a terf as an insult once, a nearly 60 year old man. (Although my mum is a based anti-troon queen ♥)
What I study is full of gendies because it's a useless degree (although if you study it critically you would be a terf). Because I'm in anime circles like lots of nonas itt (through cosplaying) there are TRAs everywhere in my life.

I do have hope though because I think I know two cryptos, one is a fairly popular cosplayer/ influencer who has reposted radfem and gc stuff subtly, and the other is my irl friend. I'm not too sure on my irl friend because we both are friends with a TIF and call her him (she's one of those who doesn't try to pass in the slightest and is overly feminine but just autistic and probably has sexual trauma). When me and my friend see troons in public we laugh to each other which makes me think she might be crypto, she called a moid with a tranny flag wrapped around him a femboy once but it may have been a mistake and I'm wishfully thinking. She's a lesbian and will screenshot moids on dating apps using they/them or she/they that come up, and I doubt she would everrr date a troon, she makes fun of "lesbians" who do in fact. When I write it out she sounds more and more crypto actually which makes me very hopeful…
The cosplayer crypto is funny to me, because I know if troons ever found out her or I hated them they would 41%. They assume every cosplayer loves them because they're either super sweet anime waifus or OF costhots who need troonbucks.

I think there are way more cryptos than it seems. A lot of women are naturally disgusted by trannies unless they've conditioned themselves or been deeply groomed. It's just impossible to talk about even in all female groups these days, but a lot of the time when I have to talk about precious trans rights there's an insincere tone from everyone, like they're just saying what they're socially required to kek. IMO the worse troons get with arguing about women's bathrooms, sports, prisons and what not (especially the full-on hons), the more cryptos there will be.

I'm crypto in a female dominated hobby. There is a real mix of tifs, libfems, and a few who have expressed feminist views unrelated to troons that I agree with. I've understandably made more effort to make friends with the latter group. Quite a lot of them are anti-porn for example and will even publicly agree with the feminist opinions I share. I try to suss them out and see if any of them are also crypto and I honestly don't know what to think. Sometimes when I talk to them privately about this stuff they will outright admit to not really seeing tifs as men. They use female pronouns for our tif friends behind their backs and usually agree it's some kind of nerdy NLOG fujo thing. But when it comes to tims they all believe in trutrans and act like handmaidens. They just can't apply the same logic whatsoever. I'm not sure if they're trying to save face or if it's just male privilege in action. Is it just a case of everyone being too scared to say no to the weird man? Does anyone else experience this complete cognitive dissonance from other women? It feels like many of them are either crypto themselves or perhaps close to peaking, but I don't want to push further and it all go horribly wrong.

A few years ago I was friends with a trannie, he was the same fucking type as every tranny.
started ugly as fuck than fucked every single "straight" men they could and got upset when they didnt want to have a relationship with him.
years later, he went to live in the capital of my country to find acting jobs, no one knows shit about him right now, I bet he is in the prostitution business.
sad, he was part of a good family, no one talks to him anymore because nothing else matter to him more than pretending to be a woman.
