Males have long held the belief that women owe it to them to affirm their gendered beliefs about themselves, and now this same entitlement leads them to claim that if they identify as women, women owe it to them to make them feel feminine.
Emasculation:
- women are expected to modify their behavior to make men feel masculine
- men believe that their manhood can be destroyed by women’s failure to affirm it
- men react with rage and indignation
- men characterize it as an attack on their rights and their core identity
- they often use or excuse violence in response, in the name of securing their manhood
Misgendering:
- women are expected to modify their behavior to make trans women feel feminine
- trans women believe their womanhood can be destroyed by women’s failure to affirm it
- trans women react with rage and indignation
- trans women characterize it as an attack on their rights and their core identity
- they often use or excuse violence in response, in the name of securing their womanhood
