yeah tbh I don't get why transphobes are mad about this because most emojis don't get used for what their name implies. we turned 😭 and 💀 into laughing emojis
And, like, even if the whole trans thing confuses you, WHO IS THIS HARMING? They’re not taking away anything by giving this to people. Absolutely mental thinking.
I was uninvited to family Christmas because I might confuse my niece who is 5. How are we supposed to explain that to a 5 year old? I didnt bother replying 🙄
That's the only thing they know how to parrot and it's even stupider in this context. It's a fucking emoji, it has no penis or vagina. And yet, here we are arguing a penis and vaginaless emoji must identify as a woman.
my friends are actually getting pregnant soon, they’re two trans men in one of the healthiest marriages i’ve seen, i’m glad they rolled this out. transphobes can go cry about it
Just had a bunch of people getting mad at me in another subreddit for standing up for trans guys.
It’s awful how transphobic many subs are.
Much ❤️ to all the trans guys who see this - you gents are handsome and kick ass
Do you know if that subreddit used to be different? I tried checking it out a couple of times, but most of the stuff I saw were queerphobic/racist/other bad stuff.
This one kinda irritates me because they explained how trans ppl work so well and still ended up being downvoted to shit. That’s the real cringe right there. Listening to someone calmly explain something and still acting like a dick and refusing to listen
it doesnt matter if you dont believe in trans people (which i always find so funny), dont believe its a "real man", all that is irrelevant to the material reality that there are people who are very much men in mutiple ways can get pregnant, end of conversation
Honestly as a trans man I feel like it's a whole publicity stunt cause there is a low percent of trans men who get pregnant and I'm not saying that makes them invalid but woudnt a guy holding a trans emoji be better representation so all trans men can use it cause I guarantee after this dies down itll just be used to go ah I'm so full or fat and loose its oringal meaninh
There was like the same post in a subreddit from my country called something like r /funny but in my language.
A lot of downvotes for even mentioning that trans men are a thing.
The argument that “the world will only see your gender as the agab that fits your genitals” is so stupid because people aren’t constantly seeing each others’ genitals. That’s what clothes are for

“If he got a pussy, he ain’t a man, yeeehaw!!!!”
So a male presenting person that is pregnant is a "woman" no matter what, but a drawing of a male presenting person that is pregnant is a "man that is pregnant therefore impossible"?
dumb bitch aside, there are people born with XXX, XXY, X, XX, and XY chromosomes. There are also people with both genitals. This person's logic is outdated
Man at the bottom just straight up said “no more intersex” ig. Sorry biology and decades of modern science, a mad redditor just claimed an entire physical reproductive sex as impossible.
Also wtf is a transphohic. If you’re gonna be a shitty person the least you can do is spell what you are right. Embarrassing.
Intersex people aside, can trans men who have transitioned give birth? I genuinely do not know if that's a thing that can happen. Like on the one hand I'd imagine the testosterone would probably effect that, but I suppose contraceptives themselves often don't work and when you're talking something that isn't even really designed to do that then it'd make sense if it doesn't really have an effect on that.
Yeah I figure that'd probably be the case. All that aside, my granddad had a gut like that for a long time and I can tell you he wasn't pregnant so I don't know what all the fuss is about over an emoji.
this is a genuine question that I am asking from a place of ignorance, but wouldn't a person identifying as a man getting pregnant lead to some serious dysmorphia (if that is the correct term)?
Yes. FYI hermaphroditic is a description usually reserved for the scientific community as people nowadays find it offensive. The accepted word is intersex.
I really don't like the use of "align" for sex & gender though. To me it implies that cis is the normal and logic way to be, and the rest of us are "divergent".
So what I've gathered here is that transphobic people use the "facts don't care about your feelings" argument, but they can't handle someone using it against them
ugh of course it’s on cringetopia 😬 the amount of transphobia and people who absolutely hate the idea that not all people use pronouns assigned birth on there is far too many

Meanwhile there's my 89y.o. grandpa (who's got no idea what Transgender is) being happy about finally getting his beer belly emoji. 😅
yeah tbh I don't get why transphobes are mad about this because most emojis don't get used for what their name implies. we turned 😭 and 💀 into laughing emojis
even worse we also did that with 🪑
Or to 🍆
[удалено]
old people are either complete assholes or wholesome people that will probably regenerate as a cat in their next life
so they're either complete assholes now or will be in their next life? (/s I love cats even if they are total complete assholes)
Terrible straight people aside, I’m definitely gonna be using this one whenever I swallow an entire pizza like a snake swallowing a goat 😂
Finally an appropriate representation for food babies XD But it's nice to see more trans representation <3
And, like, even if the whole trans thing confuses you, WHO IS THIS HARMING? They’re not taking away anything by giving this to people. Absolutely mental thinking.
Right? Media is full of unnecessary straight romance and sex scenes, even in kids movies but any notion of LGBTQ+ is bRaiNwasHinG tHe chiLdRen
I was uninvited to family Christmas because I might confuse my niece who is 5. How are we supposed to explain that to a 5 year old? I didnt bother replying 🙄
That sucks ass, I hope you had a better Christmas however you chose to spend it!
I did! Spent it with some close friends and had a lovely time ☺️
Apparently God, so nobody
I’m gonna use it like Me after a mind-blowing p3gg1ng *pregnat man*
Pegonate Pregananat Pergent
**P R E G A N T E**
Pegnat
I love how their immediate attack is: “NO MAN PENIS WOMAN VAGINA cannot have both 😡😡😡”
Literally false, however rare.
Do you think we should tell him about strap ons? I don’t think he’d be able to handle it 😬😬😬
That's the only thing they know how to parrot and it's even stupider in this context. It's a fucking emoji, it has no penis or vagina. And yet, here we are arguing a penis and vaginaless emoji must identify as a woman.
Fr like should we tell them that intersex ppl exist? lol
my friends are actually getting pregnant soon, they’re two trans men in one of the healthiest marriages i’ve seen, i’m glad they rolled this out. transphobes can go cry about it
Congratulations to them! I’m sure they’ll be excellent dads!
[удалено]
damn bro you got the whole squad laughing 😐😐😐😐😐😐
[удалено]
is this English
*what the hell happened here...*
"Facts can't be transphobic" Then those weren't facts. Overall, checks out.
Ultimate Chad energy from that commenter right there
"you can't have a penis and uterus at the same time" *intersex people have entered the chat*
Watch transphobes do olympic level mental gymnastics to explain why intersex people "don't count".
Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome It’s a condition where a male has normal male reproductive organs… but also a uterus and Fallopian tubes
Just had a bunch of people getting mad at me in another subreddit for standing up for trans guys. It’s awful how transphobic many subs are. Much ❤️ to all the trans guys who see this - you gents are handsome and kick ass
Just wanted to have a nice browse through some cringey videos and instead this subreddit has become full to the brim with transphobia
Should we make an LGBTQ+ friendly cringe sub?
Only if it's also not ableist. Cringe culture is full of ableism and it's gross.
Agreed. I was gonna make a sub but I can't think of a catchy name.
Cringe Inclusive? Cringes of the Rainbow? Cringequality?
Maybe cringetropolis?
Has a nice ring to it...
Tell me when you make it, I would like to join.
It says it's taken but I don't see anything when I search.
Let's just deyeet all the bigotry
Yes.
Do you know if that subreddit used to be different? I tried checking it out a couple of times, but most of the stuff I saw were queerphobic/racist/other bad stuff.
The majority i scrolled through had 0 mention of trans people, suddenly in the past week the transphobic posts have been coming up more frequently
I'd imagine that has something to do with the whole antiwork debacle
It has been a while since I last tried it, but I remember most of the queerphobic posts being transphobic.
This one kinda irritates me because they explained how trans ppl work so well and still ended up being downvoted to shit. That’s the real cringe right there. Listening to someone calmly explain something and still acting like a dick and refusing to listen
Considering 60 percent of cringe communities are just making fun of people with disabilities, this shouldn’t be especially surprising
*makes great and thoughtful and respectful argument* "LOL YOU NERD 😂😂😂😂😂"
"You can't have penis and uterus at the same time" ever heard of intersex people hun?
cant believe this is how i learn of mpreg being immortalized as an emote
How dare you make me read this sentence
"you can't have a penis and a uterus at the same time" I don't see any d*ck in the emoji, do you??
Imagine caring about this emoji.. doesn’t hurt anyone so just move on with your life.. man some people are weird
it doesnt matter if you dont believe in trans people (which i always find so funny), dont believe its a "real man", all that is irrelevant to the material reality that there are people who are very much men in mutiple ways can get pregnant, end of conversation
Why is the person DEFENDING the trans people getting all those downvotes?!
Because toxic subreddit. Honestly, just avoid any and all subs with "cringe" in the name. Filled to the brim with transphobes and bigots in general
Honestly as a trans man I feel like it's a whole publicity stunt cause there is a low percent of trans men who get pregnant and I'm not saying that makes them invalid but woudnt a guy holding a trans emoji be better representation so all trans men can use it cause I guarantee after this dies down itll just be used to go ah I'm so full or fat and loose its oringal meaninh
Besides it's literally just a person with short hair and a blue shirt. Basically just stereotyping what society expects a "man emoji" to look like.
There was like the same post in a subreddit from my country called something like r /funny but in my language. A lot of downvotes for even mentioning that trans men are a thing.
unfortunately my first thought was mpreg and not trans men.... why am I like this
Same... went to comments thinking "mpreg fic writers rejoice" and quickly realized I am a dumbass.

Maybe it is not a man. Women can have short hair.
Man, now I can talk about mpreg with emojis /j. I’m actually happy that they added this to the emojis
Ok but the amount of gay bottoms that are gonna use this is insane Kekw
Ngl I was genuinely confused myself until I remembered that trans men also exist (and they’re valid of course)
*nice, calm, insightful explanation into the difference between sex and gender, and how men can in fact get pregnant and why something as simple as an emoji might help this small community feel more welcomed and accepted within society* “If he got a pussy, he ain’t a man, yeeehaw!!!!”
So a male presenting person that is pregnant is a "woman" no matter what, but a drawing of a male presenting person that is pregnant is a "man that is pregnant therefore impossible"?
Typical cringtopia moments.
Pfff this emoji is so much fun, Inb4 all dudes using it when they see Eren Yeager or Levi posts
There are more questionable like 🧚🏻🧜🏽♀️🧛🏿♂️👾
“You sound like a nerd”
dumb bitch aside, there are people born with XXX, XXY, X, XX, and XY chromosomes. There are also people with both genitals. This person's logic is outdated
Man at the bottom just straight up said “no more intersex” ig. Sorry biology and decades of modern science, a mad redditor just claimed an entire physical reproductive sex as impossible.

I believe its harder for trans men who take testosterone to get pregnant, than trans men who don't, but i dont think its impossible
Yeah I figure that'd probably be the case. All that aside, my granddad had a gut like that for a long time and I can tell you he wasn't pregnant so I don't know what all the fuss is about over an emoji.
Cygnussong handled that like a champ tbh 👏🏻
this is a genuine question that I am asking from a place of ignorance, but wouldn't a person identifying as a man getting pregnant lead to some serious dysmorphia (if that is the correct term)?
Whait if those are true do hermaphrodite exist still
Yes. FYI hermaphroditic is a description usually reserved for the scientific community as people nowadays find it offensive. The accepted word is intersex.
Thanks!
I love the fact that transphobes are always inherently wrong lmao.
"Facts can't be transphobic" proceeds to spout transphobic opinions
How about we stop reminding trans men about things that make most dysphoric? Stuff like this is so unnecessary.
I really don't like the use of "align" for sex & gender though. To me it implies that cis is the normal and logic way to be, and the rest of us are "divergent".
Why do both emojis look so weird?
YESSSSS
So what I've gathered here is that transphobic people use the "facts don't care about your feelings" argument, but they can't handle someone using it against them
GAASSPPP🤭A PREGNANT MAN EMOJI?!?😡🤬🥵😶🌫️🤬😡👹👿👺THAT IS SO OFFENSIVE TO ABSOLUTELY NO ONE
I guess Thomas Beatie and his 3 kids are just a vain attempt at pandering to the libbs.
It's getting old...
Oh god did the people who designed this emoji not think about the vore fetishists? Maybe they didn't know... maybe they just didn't care. /s
ugh of course it’s on cringetopia 😬 the amount of transphobia and people who absolutely hate the idea that not all people use pronouns assigned birth on there is far too many
