shared this earlier regarding discussions about transmisogyny (what it means, who experiences it, etc). the encyclopedia entry I link to (in the "Transmisogyny and Intersectionality" section) has my most thorough articulation IMHO...
yes, I discuss the interplay of oppositional & traditional sexism a bit in this essay: juliaserano.medium.com/what-is-tran...
but flesh it out further in this encyclopedia essay, specifically in the "Transmisogyny and Intersectionality" section: www.juliaserano.com/av/Serano-Tr...
What Is Transmisogyny?
My 2007 book Whipping Girl is probably best known for two things: It popularized “cis” terminology (which I did not coin) and introduced…

Accidental banger of a reading list, tho. Current events in America are an incomprehensible mess of irrational behavior if you don't have some baseline knowledge of those subjects.

Every time I see people complain about TME/TMA it really amounts to 'I don't understand intersectionality and I'm entitled to ignoring qualifiers in conversation.'

Refusing intersectionality is one of the many bigot signature moves lol

I love that he needs both "Intersectionality 101" *and* "Critical Race Theory"

Not to be an insufferable etymology nerd, but the term transmisogyny was coined before the term misogynoir. Of course, the framework of intersectionality predates both words.

She got that white woman presumed intersectionality

lol, it's nuclear and AI intersectionality. fossil fuel is still the over arching weapon.

just thinking how much less of a shithead I’d have been in my 20s if “Intersectionality 101” had actually been a required class

It IS in fact weirdo behavior to not have each others backs in solidarity, or to have community in mind.

Intersectionality seems to just go out the window for some people and it’s an ugly look.

istg the amount of people that dont actually understand intersectionality

Excellent presentation today by @winnifredlouis.bsky.social on the "Trajectories of Collective Action and Social Change."

Network analysis and intersectionality is the way forward.

The intersectionality discussion once again has hit the white gay towers

Also, learn about intersectionality you clowns.

White feminism without intersectionality is just white supremacy

I mean the popular understanding of "intersectionality" is that it's a term that can be used to dismiss struggles that you don't care about, so what is there to abandon?

But no, struggles being interlinked doesn't mean that understanding how they reinforce and build upon each other is useless.

Thank you. Stop bashing the home team. What happened to intersectionality?
November 2, 2026 at 4:05 PM
Like no, I don't really want to look at tumblr memes mocking intersectionality as "Trans + Woman = * more oppressed *" and talking about how people on the internet are too dismissive of the concept of misandry.

I don't mean that intersectionality is a bad framework, but if we're saying something like anti-Black racism and transphobia and misogyny are all independently some form of transmisogynoir by themselves, then intersectionality theory needs an update. Which is fine, of course

Totally unrelated but I wrote a book chapter in 2019 called “Black-Palestinian Solidarity: Towards an Intersectionality of Struggles” that also includes the importance of Jewish solidarity, so please don’t read it as Jewish Insider would call you antisemitic

Van Jones warned that antisemitism threatens the historic alliance between Black Americans and Jews, cautioning that young people are being targeted by online messaging aimed at turning them against Israel, as he was honored at the American Friends of Magen David Adom’s annual New York City gala.
At MDA gala, Van Jones calls antisemitism ‘poison that is being put in’ the Black community
The CNN commentator headlined the annual American Friends of Magen David Adom event, which was emceed by actor Tovah Feldshuh

i write horror with an uncomfortable focus on identity, intersectionality, and making everything you know you should avoid just a little too enticing to deny. let's get freaky with fear together.
