IF ALL TRANS PEOPLE WANTED TO DO WAS ABUSE YOUR CHILDREN THEY WOULD SIMPLY BECOME PRIESTS OR BOY SCOUT LEADERS OR COPS OR JUST NOT OPENLY IDENTIFY AS TRANS.
IF THEY WERE “JUST MEN THAT WANTED TO INVADE WOMEN’S SPACES,” THEY COULD DO THAT AS REGULAR HETEROSEXUAL MEN.
YOUR PATHETIC TRANSPHOBIC RHETORIC HAS INFLAMED THE PUBLIC AGAINST AN OBVIOUS SCAPEGOAT AND IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE TO CALL YOURSELF TRANS OPENLY IF YOUR ONLY INTENTION IS TO MOLEST CHILDREN BECAUSE THAT KIND OF ACTIVITY HAS BEEN CONDONED BY STRAIGHT CIS MEN FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL. WHY MAKE THINGS MUCH HARDER FOR YOURSELF IN LITERALLY EVERY WAY IF THAT WAS YOUR SOLE GOAL???
why does this not make sense to these braindead dumbasses?
Anyway.
Carry on.

And they weren’t narcissists. These were average parents whose abuse was normalized by society.
And that’s why I don’t trust any of this “narcissistic abuse” bullshit.

Neurotypicals do not and cannot understand the autistic trauma of being trapped in a situation where you can’t escape from a noxious stimulus.
Especially when it’s something everyone else may only minimally react to or be able to hide their reaction to it.
It’s especially bad when the trauma is compounded by being shamed, belittled and laughed at for having a strong, visible and involuntary reaction to a situation that is horrifying and inescapable.
Fuck you. A lot of you NTs out there are so fucking cruel to autistic people who are being traumatized and I hate you for it.

A lot of people seem downright allergic to the idea that sometimes parents are not just bad but one of the core threats to their children.
It kind of reminds me of how the narrative around rape is so focused on strangers in the bushes and the like even though statistically the rapist is usually someone known to the victim. Child abuse is like that as well.
But focusing on strangers is both more comforting to the average person and less threatening to the ~respectable authority figures~ who would rather keep abusing people without suspicion.

Why do so many people hold onto beliefs even after they’re proven false with clear evidence?
Why do so many people allow enormous amounts of violence from people with power but label as “terrorism” the smallest amount of violence from people who fight back?
Why are so many people blatant hypocrites, such as those who want to legalize child marriage and force children to give birth while labeling their opposition as child groomers?
The answer is very simple. It’s because children are spanked.
When a child is spanked, they have to make sense of something that has no logical basis in reality.
Parents who spank insist that it’s good for their children despite clear and obvious evidence right in front of their faces that it isn’t. Parents who spank insist that they can use whatever violence they want without it being considered abuse while their child simply looking at them the wrong way is disrespectful. Parents who spank and who are proud of the fact that their children are afraid of them point their fingers at other people and say “those people are dangerous, stay away from them”.
And the children have no choice but to play along, because they’re completely powerless.
But their parents have most likely showed genuine kindness and genuine intelligence many times, so they can’t just dismiss their parents as abusive monsters or as dangerously stupid.
