When you're raised in a patriarchy, it's easy to struggle with femininity and womanhood, because misogyny is all around us. Trans women and cis women alike are raised in this misogynistic world, but it affects us slightly differently, especially before and after transition. Today we're talking about our own personal experiences with misogyny, how it affected us, and which parts we had to unlearn from what we'd internalized.

Patriachal misogyny affects us all! We sometimes define our womanhood in opposition to it, rather than by defining it on its own terms. When you're raised in a misogynistic world, it's easy to internalize some of the ideas about what "femininity" and "womanhood" are SUPPOSED to look like, and unfortunately a lot of times that means trauma. SA. DV. Boiling our entire identities down to whether or not we're able to reproduce or conceive children. And that's what patriarchy wants from us. In today's discussion, we break down how trans women and cis women alike are affected by misogyny and how we need to unlearn those beliefs in order to grow into the fullness of our feminine power.
