It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

body count could be loosely associated with STI risk but if you're hooking up same night, you're implicitly waiving any potential right to a screening.
i'd prefer to know what i'm working with ahead of time and i'm stopping at second base if i don't like what's in your pants but whatever standard of disclosure we have needs to first and foremost be about the safety of trans people.
Somehow I don't think that many of us are waiting until things get hot and heavy to discuss our anatomy if it applies, since that frequently results in us getting fucking killed. Pretty sure this is more of a, 'post op perfectly passing trans woman DIDNT TELL HIM!!!1!' scenario, because it's not like chuds & terfs acknowledge any other kind of real trans person.
yeah it's always a little weird trying to figure out who the hogs are talking about. I can't imagine putting yourself in that situation with a stranger deliberately.
Reliable assumption: some kind of nonexistent boogeyman. This case is an exception however, because if you are a passing trans woman with a vag, there is obviously no requirement to tell anybody about your gender, and given the option many trans people would likely happily skip the "discussing my gender with a guy who might kill me" component of a hookup, which is a valid choice and where this comes from.
