I’m cis, but I’m a rape survivor. And let me make one thing abundantly clear.
You fuck with trans* women survivors, you are fucking with my sisters. And nobody fucks with my family on my watch.
If you are a cis woman that believes cis women are incapable of rape and abuse, and believes that trans* women don’t experience rape and abuse at our hands, take...

MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNING
This spectre of rape that cis lesbian “radfems”...
– Queer Feminism (via transfeminism)

How hard it is to be a rape and abuse victim when people are claiming it isn’t possible for you to be raped?
