Stuff a cis female would deck you for, but makes us smile :)

I have a buddy of mine, he is me thinks having fun letting me be female

Of course your gaming is suffering, you're a woman

Numerous references to the kitchen.

It's funny the things he will say, that would likely irk most women, but, it is kinda nice to hear the affirmation in the silly comments.

[Ms Grace]

I really don't know if I'd find it amusing for long, depends on how condescending it was I guess. That said, I find I've always preferred being in the kitchen with the women!

[Yukari-sensei]

God I've heard so many comments concerning the kitchen! One of my friends joked (or at least I really hope it was!)after eating at my Thanksgiving feast, "I wish I could get you pregnant so I could have you chained to my stove!"     

I wasn't out last Thanksgiving...

My female friends are all convinced I'm becoming the Latina Martha Stewart. They just ask, "what's on the menu today Martha?" and I use any excuse to say "it's a good thing"

[Lesley_Roberta]

A blanket chuckle to the comments.

Yeah I used to joke with my buddy, good thing I'm not a woman, I'd need to get on my knees like the other girls do when you fix their computers for them

Hmm might need to discontinue that joke

[Yukari-sensei]

That guy is still living in the ice age .

No, he just acts that way. He does look a little bit like a caveman though. 
To be fair, he's not the only guy that said he wanted to get me pregnant so he could keep eating my cooking.

The argument that my culture is a little bit misogynist has some credibility.

I read that and it reminded me of Chris Rock's joke about p***y being a universal currency.

Well that method of payment is staying in my purse for sure! Assuming I can ever get my application approved.

Guess that depends on how you feel about it now

The kitchen doesn't bother me... I've always been more at home there - though I'm not eating much interesting these days!
I'm looking forward to the jokes, though. If you can joke about it and not make people nervous - you're both in a great place.

That sort of stuff only bothers me when it turns nasty (even if I sometimes still laugh...). Today a couple coworkers were being very mean to a cis woman about our age (mid 30s) who had recently ... bulked up... It was funny, but not at all nice.

[missy1992]

I would not tolerate such degrading language in my presence, much less participate in the bullying. I don't find these comments amusing, but belittling at best.

[chibiStephy]

it would be nice to have some friends to joke around regarding my transition but... well I don't have so .. All I can say is enjoy ^_^

I think this thread is meant to be only humorous Missy.  I find myself having to squelch a lot of old bad habits, posts like these help me get past them.  I doubt if there is any intent to offend anyone.

I understand that, however, the compliance in female oppression in our language needs to be addressed. It is the root cause of a lot of the sexism in our world and one of the reasons why so many of us hide in the closet until we've built up enough courage to come out.
We shouldn't try to "forget" that such thoughts were commonly expressed in language however we me most definitely should not be celebrating it, something I am afraid this thread is doing (no matter how subtly, or whether or not the OP even intended).

[Lesley_Roberta]

Missy likely is not aware I am the most male hating girl on the forum

But all the same, it is such a major hill to climb to be given credit for even being female for those of us that are MTF.

So that is why some of us who have truly good friends, will often goof around with us in silly forms of vintage male bad behaviours that are obviously as fake as the day is long.

Ok first off, even if I was a randy wench and would gladly drop his pants and help myself to his pride and joy as a thank you for yet again fixing some damned thing on my computer, the reality is my buddy A. would rather drop dead than let ME play with it, and B. he has no need to worry, because I'd rather have you pull the trigger on the gun aimed at my head, than do that for a man (unless I was married to him and he had previously done something to earn it, and let me tell you it would be expensive).

This isn't me saying sexual slurs are acceptable at all. It's me saying a good friend will know, that we face a seemingly daily battle up a very steep hill, and they will say silly things tailored to the person that that person will think is funny and make us laugh. As such, each of us will have our own special acceptable funny things that may well only be funny to us.

Believe me, there are things you better not say to me, but there are lots of things that will make me laugh too.
But generally speaking, most cis females don't need re affirmation of their being female.
This is all about TG people realizing we sometimes need to laugh at some of the stuff we never dreamed of needing to care about before.

[Megumi]

All throughout my life since I've been working this one constant joke has been thrown at me countless times.

Scenario: I'm cleaning my work area.

Random person I work with says: Man Megan "not gonna use my real name " you're going to make some man a happy husband one day cleaning up like that.

If they only knew, if they only knew

Buzzkillette here.... I think there are too many different personality types out there to find something that would offend cis women but not a trans woman.  That's just my opinion. 

[Ms. OBrien CVT]

The best thing that happened to me was when I was a cashier at my last job.  A angry customer called me "A F'ing B!tch".   Best day ever.

[Alainaluvsu]

IDK, I'm not so easily offended anyways. A guy could say the most retarded, sexist thing to me and I wouldn't really care. But then again, getting the validation is a bit old for me. I guess once you get that enough, you start to look at it the same way as most cis women do.

If a guy makes a kitchen joke, I make a take out the trash joke. I think any woman that gets offended over kitchen jokes is too high strung...

My therapist is tolerant of my blonde jokes, but she says that menopause is still off-limits.

A lady I work with just had a hysterectomy. I pick on her all the time about her missing uterus. She doesn't seem to mind.

I have never once been called "Ma'am".  I was thoroughly, completely delighted a few months ago, during an argument with my neighbor, when she called me "B!TCH", intended in an angry, hurtful manner to my male image.

Is bitch really female oriented?  I don't know but I'm so used to hearing it for both genders.  My sister always says what's up bitch to me (in a playful way), so I always so it is gender nuetral.   My dad even used to call me his "little bitch"  (again playfully).  I feel like "guys" get called that as often as girls do nowadays.  But I guess when anger is placed behind it the meaning does change.

  If anyone wishes I were in the kitchen then the joke will be on them because I FAIL at cooking!  (Ironically I seem to have inherited that from my mother.)

[Alainaluvsu]

I make a mean tuna sandwich. I'll offer one to anyone and not think twice about it.

I'm a good cook, but I clearly inherited my cleanliness genes (or lack thereof) from my father.

[Lesley_Roberta]

Everyone has weaknesses. A woman that has done case worker counseling for my wife and I for several years now, she's a LARGE girl. I'd be surprised if she could casually laugh off weight jokes.

Me, it's my education.

Some terms, they get used by both genders, but it is generally known the term does have a gender target. You don't call a male a c*nt, and you don't call a female a d*ck. A female is generally a b*tch while a male is generally an a*shole

Hey the best cooks are generally men, just need to watch TV. But, men are generally stuck in the hunter role, not the fire tending role.

Tailors are men but we do have seamstresses. It's just we are used to the notion that mom fixes your clothing, not dad.

Mom is assumed to be the person that does the dishes, dad is assumed to be the person the cuts the lawn.

But there all just chores, and if you are single, you get to do all of them.

And as it stands, the worst of the chores performance levels among my friends, have all been females

But I was raised in a cliche 50s home. Mom never cut the grass, and dad never did the dishes. Mom was a housewife, and dad worked. And I was so not raised in this century

My current cane screams out masculine. It has a handle designed to look like a handsaw. My mom mentioned it looked too dissimilar. I'm thinking of making a new topper for it to either look like a steam iron or a blender The thing is, the design needs to have a handle in the end. I realize my two choices are overly sexist seeming though. I just don't care
