Regarding Shirley Ferrante...
4 months ago
Recently on Twitter, Rhythm Bastard made a post calling out TERFs on their bullshit. I replied to him with my character Shirley Ferrante and said that she has a long track record of slaughtering transphobes in my stories, which is why I gave her the nickname of The Transphobe Slayer. However, some worthless fucking parasites thought it would be a good idea to bullshit me about this. One of them accused me of being misogynistic because I am against TERFs. Being against TERFs does NOT make me a misogynist. Obviously this piece of trailer trash is uneducated and transphobic. Yes, I am a bisexual Atheist who supports the rights of trans people. Yes, I paid Desperado Dave to draw Shirley. It's obvious that Rhythm Bastard knows that I'm all for the rights of trans people given the fact that he too supports the trans community and went the extra mile by making a song calling out TERFs on their bullshit. He actually gave my reply a like, which I thought was pretty cool. Dave also knows about my support for the rights of trans people. The reason why I decided that Shirley should be trans is to add more diversity to my roster of characters and that she has executed transphobes in extremely brutal ways in my Hell's Archangel stories. And yet, people like to get their panties in a bunch at the sight of a character who is canonically trans. Some dumbfuck on Twitter claims that having a trans hellhound who slaughters transphobes is corny, which is hypocritical since this shitbag has an anime profile picture. There's nothing wrong with having characters who are trans, even if the characters in question hunt transphobes on a regular basis. Most of the trans people I've interacted with in real life and on the internet are generally good people. The same can never be said about the transphobes, including TERFs. Transphobes are among the many enemies of the LGBT community, and that's a fact. I'm not getting rid of Shirley, but I am going to block anyone who talks shit about her and/or gives me shit for supporting the trans community. Trans rights are human rights, and every sane person knows that.

What does TERF stand for?

It stands for Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist. In other words, they hate trans people and want to destroy their rights.

That's new to me. But I have another question to ask too.

What is it?

If someone doesn't support gender ideology or transgenderism or LGBTQ+ due to their personal beliefs but are respectful about it, wouldn't respect still go both ways?

I don’t know.

Here's something to keep in mind - you can earn respect, but not demand it.

You did nothing wrong.

OP
Neither did you, and the reason why I wrote this journal is because of how pissed off I was at those transphobic pieces of trailer trash that were attacking me and accusing me of misogyny. Rather than arguing with the transphobes, I did what I always do and simply blocked them.
