I Welcome Your Hatred, Robyn

Because I call crap out, ain't 'scurred' to talk about whiteness, white privilege and how it deleteriously affects this community and call out the TS separatists (and others) for their racism and bigotry I have more than a few white sheet wearing detractors who straight up hate me.

Ho hum, Robyn Carolyn Montague is still bitter because I won't add her to the now 1800 people on my Facebook page.  All I have to say to you and the people that share your opinion of moi is I welcome your hatred.

And yeah, bear in mind that I've been active in this community for 15 years and contrary to your jacked up vanillacentric perspective, my friends in it who have my back don't always share my ethnic background.

The TS separatist ranks that you'd fit in quite nicely with because they are in the 'I Hate Moni' club ranks with you are chock full of bitter, rancor filled selfish idiots like you who are pissed off because they assumed they would hold the same level of white male privilege they used to have in their new femme bodies and society said otherwise.


And yeah, I sure am getting off my fine behind to help do my part to organize the next Creating Change conference coming to my hometown. I'm four videotaped hours and counting into an enjoyable oral history project at Rice University that will preserve my thoughts for posterity.  My seven year old blog is approaching 5 million hits and is archived.   I was honored by BTMI last March with an advocacy award named after me. 

And oh yeah, did you see who made the inaugural Trans100 List?   Sure wasn't you.

As I told your trifling, bitter butt back in February, my Facebook page, my rules.  Your continued nekulturny antics make that decision I made then to NOT add you to it look even wiser in the four months since I made that call. 

And you are still role modeling what I said about you four months ago. 

You're not a lady, you're another late transitioning asshole that still is carrying around that WMPesque attitude you spent much of your life marinating in.

So if you're going to post a derogatory comment about moi making an allegation about what I said, at least make it accurate.  Take the time to cut and paste what I said about you down to the syllable

On that note, I've wasted enough bandwith playing with you.  I have trans human rights I have to help our community get, stories I need to shine a bright spotlight on, trans people I need to inteview who are actually doing something to make a difference, speeches to write and a presentation to finish.

And naw, I'm still not adding you to my Facebook page

Twans Sep Twying To Start Twouble

Was minding my own business Tuesday night when I received an e-mail from Janet Mock that my name was being dragged into a discussion on her FB page about a piece Janet wrote for XOJane..  

Basically it started with the Twitter war between Azaelia Banks and Perez Hilton in which transphobic insults have been flying from both parties.   Janet called them both out for the transphobia and wrote a post for XOjane to clarify her stance.   

I also love this post at Dyssonance and Dyss' take on the Twitter war

Lisa McDonald, the TS separatist who chickened out of a debate with Cristan Williams, tried to start more shyt by going on Janet's FB page and attempting to drag my name into this mess.  She cited this almost year old post in which I called out the WWBT's for their vanillacentric privilege among other issues I castigated them for in the post.  McDonald then proved the point I made in the post about their privilege in the first place by disrespecting Janet on her own FB page.

Sniff sniff.  Probably was mad because their separatist talking points are being blown up and they are being rendered irrelevant   Oh yeah, another message for you and your friends for the 2k13.  Don't start none, won't be none. 

I stand by every word, syllable, and sentence I wrote in that post.   If you Twans Separatists don't like it, too damned bad because you already know I have no love for y'all anyway and your pursuit of pseudo cis privilege .   When you 'Twoo Twanssexuals' stop kissing up to the Whyte Radfem Womyn Gone Wyld, I might be inclined to revisit my assessment of you peeps. . 


So Lisa, another question for you?  When are you going to debate Cristan instead of doing what you seps do best and troll the Web?    Inquiring minds wanna know.

TS Separatist Chickens Out Of Debate Wih Cristan

If you believe strongly that your ideas are superior to someone else's, you should have no problem standing up in any venue to calmly and rationally debate someone with opposing points of view in the glaring light of public scrutiny.

But as radfems and their TS separatist auxiliaries routinely prove, they are incapable of doing that for multiple reasons.

They know deep down in their vanillacentric souls their positions are not only unpopular, they are on the wrong side of the moral arc of the universe and won't stand up to intense examination.

So they do what any group that's stuck defending a position based on a quicksand like foundation and a series of loud and wrong talking points does.  

They employ 'fear and smear' demonize the opponent tactics.   They use electronic brownshirt tactics worthy of the most seasoned conservative Republican operative.  They comment swarm opponents blogposts.  They lie, shout down and attempt to intimidate anyone who calls their azzes out.  They try to silence anyone who has irrefutable evidence that deconstructs and demolishes their erroneous, loud and wrong talking points they base their whole worldview on. 

And they refuse to debate them.

Like any vanillacentric group with privilege finding themselves being challenged by the marginalized one they terrorize and oppress on a regular basis, they try to flip the script and laughingly claim victim status. 

Cristan Williams has been hard at work along with others in the reality based trans community confronting the lies and compiling the research that has blown up many of the TS separatist talking points they've been pimping from their closed corners of the Net.

When they accused her of making it all up, she challenged their spokesmodels to debate her.

Lisa McDonald stepped up and accepted that challenge, but as we in rational trans world suspected would happen eventually weaseled out of the debate that was scheduled for last month. . I'll let Cristan tell you the rest of the story.

This is all I have to say about it to the TS separatist side.

TransGriot Update:  I struck a nerve in TS sep world with this post.  Lisa sent Cristan a note threatening 'legal action'.  It only shows the depth of Lisa's cluelessness and still doesn't detract from the fact Lisa backed out of a debate she proposed.   And after personally watching Cristan eviscerate our local Reicher Dave Welch on Fox26, I can say with reasonable certainty had Lisa honored her commitment, Cristan would have pwned her too.

I Don't Hate WWBT's, I Hate Your Vanillacentric Doctrine

Over the weekend I actually tried to have a dialogue with a transsexual separatist on a Facebook trans group to find out for myself why they have their panties in a bunch over the transgender umbrella.  

The person I had the discussion with was one who had been kicked out of her home for being trans, admittedly had a sixth grade education and a hard life.  But that's no excuse for her obviously having a problem with award winning chocolate trans me being in this discussion. 

Despite me picking up on the bigotry in her comments, I tried to let it slide and attempted to focus on the discussion until she accused me of  'playing the race card'.   At that point I had enough of playing nice with her azz and dropped 50 megatons of knowledge on her behind.   She responded in typical WWBT fashion by tossing out the 'Moni is fixated on race' spin line, misgendering me and then when I called the person on her BS flee from the conversation while attempting to cry white women's tears .

As I've said and noted before in numerous posts about the TS separatists or as I call them the White Women Born Transsexual, they have a major problem with any transperson who doesn't think like they do or questions the genitalia=gender 'true transsexual' medical model.  

They especially have a problem if the transsexual who has a contrarian opinion is intelligent, non-white, proud of her heritage and is not going to bow down or stifle what she has to say in deference to them.

The fact that I am a longtime Trinity Award winning Black trans leader making the same arguments many of my white trans counterparts do with an Afrocentric twist in favor of an inclusive and expansive transgender umbrella and definition of transsexual makes it too damn easy for white TSers to revert to their old vanillacentric bag of silencing tricks and attempt to dismiss what I have to say.

They claim I hate then, attempt to use conservafool projection tactics to hide the bigotry and vanillacentric privilege, 'mud slinging' or try to paint me as 'angry'.  Every time I try to reach out individually to some of them it results in transsexual separatists disrespecting me, silencing attempts, outright racist slurs and bigotry aimed at me.  They also like to deploy a new trick they picked up in trying to use the 'white women's tears' gambit.   

As we say in the Lone Star State, that dog won't hunt.

As I said in that long ongoing thread, I'm not 'throwing around a card'. I'm speaking truth about my chocolate trans life and you refuse to hear it.  I get tired as a POC transperson of having that charge leveled at me in mixed racial company discussions because my truth does not and will not always neatly line up with yours because of the reality that my trans experience is filtered through the prism of me growing up Black in America.

And some of y'all can't handle that truth.

Race and class and the inequalities they cause exist in trans world along with white privilege and only a fool would deny that reality.

While having discussions about labels that affect all of us in the trans community, it is illogical to have a discussion that attempts to reimage any term applicable to the overall transgender community without having non-white transpeople and our leaders front and center in that discussion especially in light of the fact it has been POC transpeople's blood that has disproportionately been shed in this march for trans human rights.  

Some of those leaders that we in POC trans communities choose to take part in those discussions will not be palatable to you, but that's your problem, not ours.  

News flash:  In the second decade of the 21st century trans POC's have the talent, education and ability to hold thought leadership positions in this community.  You don't like that new paradigm, too damned bad.

Translation: to break it down for you WWBT's the discussions about trans labels that impact all of our lives as ttranspeople isn't going to be a whites-only party and y'all need to get over it..

I'm making it abundantly clear where I stand and you can run tell that to the rest of WWBT World and your radical lesbian separatist allies like the Exterminationalist Twins where I stand.

I hate your WWBT doctrine, the racist memes you're pushing, and the failure to realize that transpeople have 'been there done that' when it comes to the medical model.  It didn't work from the 1950's to the 1980's and it damned sure isn't going to work in the 2K10's.

I don't hate you TS separatists individually, I despise your selfish vanillacentric doctrine. 

I have to ask the question once again.  If you hate the transgender label and the community that has been coalescing and evolving around it, why stay in a community you loudly hate since you're women now? 

You are free to leave, adhere to the failed medical model of transsexuality and go on your quixotic mission of chasing pseudo-cisgender status. 

What I'm saying about you are some of the same things we've been saying in the Black Trans Revolution Will Not Be Televised discussions we in chocolate transworld have been having for years about TS separatism. I'm just the one who is in the position and ain't 'scurred' to bring that hard dose of reality to your behinds in living color, pun intended.

And you and your separatist buds can hate that all you want.

I don't hate WWBT's, I hate your vanillacentric exclusionary doctrine you're trying to pimp.

WWBT Haterade Spoiling The Holidays

For some reason the holiday season has brought another infestation of WWBTism into trans community comment threads from the usual white sheet wearing suspects. 

Hmm, maybe they're upset because people have been ignoring them and their revisionist bull feces.

Before y'all start hollering, "there she goes again' I have a confession to make. 

Contrary to the spin being propagated in WWBT transsexual world I don't hate 'errbody' who identifies as WBT.   Nor am I in favor of any trans person  having their path to genital surgery blocked should that be your desire. Anyone who says otherwise is a bald faced liar.  

My contempt is focused on the segment of transsexual separatist leaders who have attacked, misgendered and disrespected me for simply having an opinion grounded in truth and 15 plus years of working for the human rights advancement of all trans people to the point I'm tired of it. 

I'm simply reacting to the negativity aimed at me by Sharon Gaughan and her WWBT minions who continually exhibit the behaviors I castigate them for.

So since trying to talk to them and get them to focus on common concerns all trans people share is like trying to use logic and reason with a Tea Klux Klan member, I'm done with that.

Come to think of it, given their pattern of ignoring facts, trying to rewrite history and sowing dissension, wouldn't be surprised if many of them did attend Tea Klux Klan events.


Ahem.  moving on. Since they've been disrupting comment threads again, I'm saying what I need to say about a few subjects including the latest blowup on these electronic pages.

So what are the goals for trans human rights?   They are to build community unity, advocate for comprehensive trans human rights laws with enforceable teeth, ending the violence aimed at us, education about our issues, and making it easier for transpeople to transition without barriers.

Denise Norris and countless other trans folks in this community get that.  To point of what she said in a recent online discussion before it was trolled and disrupted by WWBT's:

Transgender, as a meta-group, unites all those individuals who society would cast out because they present a non-conforming gender expression as judged by society.

Transgender, as a meta-group, stands up to society and says that everyone should be treated equally, no matter what their gender expression.

Protecting just Gender Identity is not enough. We need to protect Gender Expression as well. Imagine being told by your employer, school or community that "we respect your gender identity is atypical, but don't express it in public." That is exactly how the discrimination will continue if we don't protect Gender Expression.

But to protect Gender Expression, we need to be willing to protect ALL forms of Gender Expression. This is why Transgender casts a wide net of inclusion.

Trans separatists don't want a wide net of inclusion.   The desire for recognition in the WWBT transsexual separatist ranks is wrapped up in a stank package of white privilege, bigotry, shame, guilt,  classism, self hatred, the futile chase for psuedo cisgender privilege and the willful disregard for the issues of transpeople of color and those who are just starting the feminine transition journey.

Anyone ever seen a self identified transsexual separatist advocating for other people's human rights except when it furthers their own selfish and exclusionary vanillacentric agenda?  

You won't because they don't believe there is a trans community despite reams of evidence to the contrary.

Get to stepping and go hang out with your rad fem buddies at MichFest, if they let you onto The Land. We're tired of you trying to redefine transsexual to fit a failed narrow medical model so you can cahse the fool's gold of pseudo cisprivilege.

I'll say it again.  If you peeps don't want to be part of the trans community, step.   It'll make it a happier place for the rest of us and a more pleasant holiday season without your drama.
