They Hate Moni

TransGriot Note: I know I said a few days ago that the 'Hate on Haters' post would be the last time I wasted bandwidth on these WWBT clowns. But it has come to my attention that one of my WWBT haters went nuclear in their 'Attack Monica' campaign on her blog. Since I'm not even going to respond to her diatribe, I was inspired this morning to do one of my infamous song rewrites about this situation.

They Hate Moni
Sung to the tune of 'They Want Money' by Kool Moe Dee

I'm thrivin'
They’re hating on me
All the so called WWBT’s
While I’m kicking knowledge
They rant incessantly
And incoherently
No need to deny to me
You latte-drinking heifers don't like Moni
While screamin' and yellin' like crazed banshees
No I ain't got no time for you tricksters
But slide your number
And I might chat with ya
You calling me racist
You shouldn't of said that
You played yourself
And I know where your heads at
Jealous of you don't make me laugh
You tramps all want my autograph
Or wanna be me so bad maybe
But I ain't sweating you so-called ladies
Forget all the silly rumors you heard
Here's the deal so spread the word

Yo,
I’m laughin’ at you girlfriend
Yo,
More woman than you are
Yo,
Proud of my history
The WWBT’s
Naw, they hate Moni

And I can see 'em a mile away
And when they act up
I just smile and say
Back up off me
Smell the coffee
Keep screamin' and plottin'
You mental softies

Watchin' you fume from the second I diss ya
Hear racist bile in your careless whispers
I know the game it's old and lame
Peeps respect my name and it drives you insane
I’m livin’ life and that pisses you off, hon
You’re home alone while I’m having fun
WWBT’s are whacked, yeah I said that
It ain't fiction it's a plain fact
Intellectually hanging with me come on
Your brains are already too far gone
I’ve got style
I’ve got class
You WWBT’s are nothin’ but crass

Yo,
I’m laughing at you girlfriend
Yo,
More woman than you are
Yo,
Proud of my history
The WWBT’s
Naw, they hate Moni

The WWBT crew I'm givin' them fits
‘Cause this transsistah is mad legit
I don’t sell woof tickets or take no shh..
Whatever I post it’s getting hits
So listen ladies and take the hint
I’m not an intellectual wimp
Oops, got an interview be back in a flash
Is that your dentures I’m hearing gnash?
Tired of wasting precious bandwidth
Admit you’re bitter and deal with it
So they wanna hate on
The media master
Keep proving my points
You’re social disasters
Neocoochie? Don’t care if you have one
Sorry that nothing’s happening
In your bedrooms to make you grin
You girls keep trying to crash my party
One day you might become somebody

Yo,
I’m laughing at you girlfriend
Yo,
More woman than you are
Yo,
Proud of my history
The WWBT’s
Naw, they hate Moni

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.

Does Homophobia Go With That Hate?

The latest in my ongoing series of song rewrites was motivated by the recent instances in Kansas and New Jersey of alleged 'christians' stiffing their wait staff out of their tips because of their bigoted perceptions they were gay. 

So y'all know the drill, break out the iPods and sing along to Moni's remixed lyrics

Does Homophobia Go With That Hate?
Sung to the tune of 'Do Fries Go With That Shake' by George Clinton.

Oh oh
Oh ohh
Oww oww

Oh, I see the damndest things
Working in the restaurant game
On duty, my feet are tired and ache
Then a big party comes my way
I had a big tip coming today
Instead all I received was hate.
Making my blood boil again

(chorus)
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?

They said my gayness they could see
And that means there's no tip for me
A Christian?
That's a big fat lie
All that means is I got stiffed
Less cash for me at the end of my shift
Don't even try it

Does homophobia go with that hate?  (does homophobia go with that hate? X4)
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?

You know homophobia isn't marvelous (x2)

I'm working hard
Don't need this shyt
Judgmental christophobes  
Make me sick
So don't try it
Ooohh, this homophobic bigotry isn't sweet
Its got me and my peeps ready to riot

Ohh, Does homophobia go with that hate?  Does homophobia go with that hate? X4)
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?

Oh oh, oh oh

With LGBT peeps you got beef
So don't blame it on Christian beliefs
You need to stop telling that big lie

Does homophobia go with that hate?
Does homophobia go with that hate?
(fade to end)

What We Has Here Is A Fauxgressive Failure To Communicate 3

If you white transpeople (and cis people) wanna hate on drag queens, leave the inaccurate over the top 'it's just like blackface' rhetoric out of it.    That's appropriation of my people's history, disrespectful and not applicable.

Blackface was specifically designed to denigrate, demean and dehumanize African Americans, hence the name for the those performances that started in the 1830's. 

I get it some of y'all have problems with drag queens and have a foaming at the mouth hatred for certain types of drag queens.   But just as you hate it when people consider all trans people the same, we have to be just as respectful of the fact that not all drag queens are monolithic in their behavior either.

I'm bringing up this point again because of something that unexpectedly blew up as I was innocently web surfing this morning..  I was reading a comment on Kelli Busey's FB feed concerning this DC Metroweekly article that caught my attention because of the hatin' on drag queens and inaccurately linking it to blackface.  

If you read the original article, you'll note drag queens aren't even mentioned.. Now on to the fauxgressive fail.

***

Madisyn Barbosa I hate dragqueens. its blackface for transwomen. the only thing worse that dragqueens are transvestite fetish sick bastards

Monica Roberts ‎@Madisyn...Drag is NOT 'blackface for transwomen'....That's problematic for African American transpeople to mischaracterize it that way.

She repeated the following comment twice.
Madisyn Barbosa Yes dragqueens are blackface for transwomen. they mock . nuff said.

I messed up the comment I meant to post I immediately behind this one and deleted it for revision.  I wanted there to be no mistaking what I was about to say next in response to the double dip of fail. .

Madisyn Barbosa Okay so its twice as worse.

Mx Tam Pax Do drag kings mock transmen? Or is that something different?

***

And this is the one I intended to follow up her double dip of fail

***

Monica Roberts ‎@No Madisyn...That's your white privilege talking that ignores the painful history of blackface...it's not even close and you wouldn't be saying that BS if you were African American

Monica Roberts ‎@Madisyn...Explain in longer than a sentence, how drag is 'twice as 'worse than blackface'?

***

You know the old saying..give somebody enough rope and they'll hang themselves.  Here's where Madisyn begins to tie the noose and drape it around her neck..

***.
Madisyn Barbosa Im not white. im spaniard. shows how much you judge people by the color... tsk tsk stupid girl.


Madisyn Barbosa

Drag queens do nothing but mock transwomen. dragqueens are a joke and by visual streotype assosiation make transwomen a joke as well. blackface mocks black people just like dragqueens mock us. i stopped going to gay clubs and dragshows long... ago because everyone asked when im performing. im a real person. im a real performer. im a professional bellydancer. i have real talent.since when does caking on clown makeup and lipsyncing to cher and beyonce become talent,its not. its pathetic. pick a damn gender already. 

 Madisyn Barbosa White priviledge my ass..

Monica Roberts ‎@Madisyn Spaniards are from a European nation, ergo they do exist and are considered white  So who's stupid now?

If you have issues with drag queens, then pull up the big girl panties and hate on them without incorrectly dragging my people's history into the mix

***
Madisyn starts going off the rails about now because it's clear I plucked a vanilla scented nerve...

***
Madisyn Barbosa Youre wrong. not white. take the race card out of yor ass and go show it to someone who cares. did i hurt your duct taped tucked pride? why dont you go lipsync your problems who doesnt think youre a joke. dont hate me becuase im a transwoman,hate me because you dont have the courage to be yourself so you have to crossdress for attention. im too skinny and fine to wear big girl panties...im perfect size 0.

Monica Roberts Blackface mocks, denigrates and dehumanizes a specific ethnic group...therefore it is inaccurate to say that a drag queen performance is 'just like blackface' when there are ranges of drag performances.

Madisyn Barbosa id be upset to if i had your face. but thats the way the world is...the unpassable will always hate on the beautiful...hate away monica hate away...prove me wrong....

Ambalika Williams Sounds like someone is completely ignorant in the drag subculture (queer theory lesson much needed here). Oh and a black history lesson would be wise too.

Madisyn Barbosa I dont need to know jackshit about dragculture or queer lessons im a straight girl. im better than that.

Before I had a chance to blast her on that one...Ambalika beat me to it.....

Ambalika Williams So ur homophobic and you like to talk about issues you don't know jack shit about. Plus you admit it. WOW! Much respect for admitting your total lack of knowledge.


Mx Tam Pax And yet lots of trans people have phases in their lives of exploring their gender in different communities and areas, including drag, cross-dressers, two-spirit, berdache, kathoey, hijra and queer communities.. Sounds like kicking ourselves overall this specific kind of transphobic hating..

Madisyn Barbosa All drag is a joke. i dont care what kind of performers they are. caking on clown makeup and lipsyncing is not performance nor talent. anyone can do it. dont think youre some kind of awesome because gayclubs make you feel like a celebrity when you have no actual talent.

Mx Tam Pax ‎*whoops too much info, y'all can google the terms above to find out more..

Monica Roberts

All you have to do is look at a census form and your own history. Latinos were considered and lumped in with whites until the 70's.

People in the Dominican Republic who hated their African roots emphasized their SPANISH lineage, not their African one...you can check out Henry Louis Gates' recent PBS show 'Black In Latin America' for that one.

And Madisyn, you're proving my initial point about your white privilege. Only those who wield it and bask in its vanilla scent walk around with the arrogance to presume that they don't have to learn anything about other cultures and can appropriate at will.

Monica Roberts ‎@Madisyn...trying to call a Black woman ugly because you are intellectually outgunned by her is another manifestation that you have white privilege....My suitors would dispute your less than scientific impression..

Mx Tam Pax bizarrely sounding like phrases used to beat on trans women now "you think you're a real woman, you're a freak, you're nothing special, you're just a gay man in a dress, you're a pervert wearing too much make-up..." which often leads to violent hate crime..

I'm going to skip down to the money post by Jami Ward....

Jami Ward

‎"the unpassable will always hate on the beautiful..."
"im too skinny and fine to wear big girl panties...im perfect size 0"
"im a professional bellydancer. i have real talent"
"im a straight girl. im better than that"
"I dont need to know jack...shit "
"hate away monica hate away...prove me wrong"

Ummm...Madisyn? Based on your blurbs above, it would appear that you've done Monica's job for her.

***

Yep Jami, that she did..  As the old rap song goes, she played herself.  The more interesting part is that she's a cis woman spouting all that ish and more than proved my point about the WP she was wallowing in.

But it's just another day of Moni dealing with fauxgressives who don't have a clue, much less don't wanna have a clue.
