One is completely and easily reversable, more like a minor inconvenience to just drop the sword. The other is permanent and damaging. Not really comparable. But I am glad you wanted to come argue with me on a meme. Awesome.
there's nothing really permanent or damaging about taking estrogen in the short-term (i.e. like wielding the sword), you can stop it after 3 months without any permanent effects, and after that the main permanent effect is breast growth
I think wielding the feminizing sword actually then is more like taking estrogen than you give credit. 🤔
Also, the meme doesn't mention the sword's effects are temporary - I assumed the sword's estrogen effect wouldn't disappear immediately upon being dropped, but that is an interesting idea (and maybe more aligned with the intent, I don't know - I would assume as a trans meme oriented to transfem forced feminization fantasy that it would be disappointing for the estrogenizing effects to be temporary).
sorry, I don't react well when people treat trans people as separate or not the same as cis people in terms of their gender - I was probably reacting poorly to the implication that trans men are somehow different than cis men in terms of how feminization effects them.
I don't mean to be unpleasant or argumentative, but I think you have a point here, I do come across that way.
I'll just block you so you don't have to interact with me again. And I'm really sorry for not interacting with you well, I hope you have a better day (and better interactions with others). 🫶
Forced castration isnt permanent or damaging at all? Really? Taking estrogen is one thing but thats not whag we are talking about
