cw: targeted towards trans femmes :')
Who else would such a meme be targeted to especially when this is a women’s space.

This isn’t a transfem community, nor a transfem enby-excluding community, afaik. There is a transfem community on Lemmy, but it’s explicitly inclusive of enbies, so still not just a women’s space.

And it’s connected to the whole rest of the Fediverse, which is certainly not a women-only space. Things you post here will be seen outside the context of this magazine.
Transfem and enby are mutually exclusive terms, a person can be one or the other but not both.
- WalrusDragonOnABike [they/them] ( @WalrusDragonOnABike@lemmy.today ) English4•4 months ago
Enby is an umbrella term that can includes people who are transmasc (ie: demiboys, libramascs), transfems (ie: demigirls, librafems), multigender, agender, genderfluid, and xenogenders. Transfem just describes the direction of transition and is not just limited to binary trans women.
That doesn’t make sense, a person cannot want to be “NonBinary” and also want to be a trans woman at the same time.

Why not?
because nonbinary is being neither male nor female and transfem is being a woman, a binary gender. They are not the same thing.

how is this a women’s space?
“how is this a women’s space?”
> Majority of memes in the community are transfem memes

the way you’re trying to exclude trans men from a general trans space “because most of the memes are trans fem” is really othering and hurtful
i don’t feel like that reason makes it okay to be exclusive to trans men. if anything, that strikes me as a reason to be more considerate, not less
sort of like how a typical women’s space should be considerate in including trans women, since they’re a minority of a marginalized group, no?
incidentally, you should see that the rules of the subreddit which forbid bigotry and encourage tagging your post with the audience it’s aimed at
