I have a question about the orange book involving brain worms

brain worm stuff and I guess spoilers for the plot

I know a little bit about 4chan tttt and general internet trans brain worms but not much, and I try to avoid learning about these things even if it's to debunk them

I read the Wikipedia summary of the plot and I see it involves discussion and debunking of AGP and controversial trans "researchers"

If staying away from brain worm stuff is important to me should I avoid the book?

[–] magi@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The "brainworms" stuff isn't going to poison your mind if that's what you've afraid of. The AGP part is a few pages but it is a debunk and is unlikely to have a negative effect if you were to read the book. Certainly less CWs in Nevada than some of the other mainstream trans novels.

this gas actually convinced me to check it out I struggle against the AGP brainworms to this day

[–] magi@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

AGP is a bit, it was made up by a guy.

Frakes will remind you

But seriously you should read it

god i hate carrying around other peoples' mean thoughts, he doesnt deserve to be living rent-free in my head. i feel like reading the Gender Accelerator actually helped because I feel like I've peeked behind the curtain to the truth of it all, I found it very freeing.

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

You're gonna love Orange Book, it's awesome. The Guy's "theory" is literally just cisheterocentric bullshit and it's all revealed. It's fuckin awesome, gender theory slaps ❀

[–] rtstragedy@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

"this gas" i am not sure what I meant by that. maybe "this post"?

love the link lmao i love how the music stutters all over the place hahahaha

i'll check it out!! after gender outlaw

[–] magi@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

This has is what I read it as ^^

Yeah I like to use that for this very reason, keep that in mind as it's an elaborate bit and it may help against the brainworms.

Keep us updated on your progress!

As someone who reads the same romance novels that cishet women read, can confirm that β€œAGP” is just the same old pathologization of female sexuality that’s been going on forever

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

yea unsurprising, in fact it's kind of a self-report on the fact men have no fucking idea about women

[–] naom3@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I was thinking of making a post on it later today, but having grown up with these anxieties about not really being trans and it being just a fetish and then reading romance novels and seeing the sort of stuff cis women fantasize about was wild.

blanchardismAlso, it’s not just that he has no idea about women, his theory for HSTS trans women was that they were too femme to ever be desirable to gay men so they transitioned to sleep with straight men instead, since gay men heavily prefer masc partners which is just kel-what. Like this mf has literally never heard of a twink before. Like he saw a tom of finland painting once and went β€œah yes, this is the gay male experience”

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

my man Ray!Lmao yeah I forgot that for a sec, but of course he knows queers even less than women. Joke guy, poor quality bit.

[–] buh@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

spoilerIt only gets really brainwormy in the second half

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

and I try to avoid learning about these things
