random insecure trans woman: the only way to gain followers on bluesky as a trans woman is to post nudes. it's exploitative and fetishizing how that's the only way to grow an audience

Katie Tightpussy — random insecure trans woman: t...
like come ON y'all why do we do this discourse every three weeks. it immediately falls flat every time.
yes, there's something to be said about sexualization and objection of women on social media, especially with how trans women are fetishized, but y'all are missing the forest for the trees here.
I mean you can say "there can be a feeling of peer pressure to take part in it and I struggle with it" (which is true of me) without saying there are powerful trans women doing it on purpose. selfies in general not just nudes. and I hope nobody is going to be conflating those for dunking purposes
sure absolutely! i'm not seeing people talking about selfies in general, but lewds specifically. huge difference of course
I follow a *lot* of trans women here, & not even a quarter of them post noods / lewds. But I can see how people could develop a perception that it's more common than it is.
I mean. Look I don't have an issue with it, but I will admit I get a little salty when I see a ton of nudes on my skyline and I feel like I don't have any engagement.
I just think it's a me problem and don't really complain about it, plus... Sometimes nudes are fun.
1/2
I also have pretty big social anxiety and frankly guilt over participating.
I guess I don't know what to say here other than I do recognize both sides of the coin. I'd never tell anyone not to post. It can be hella validating and it's not like there aren't filtering tools if it REALLY bugs you.
I mean, you have to actively *choose* to see nudes here. And honestly, social anxiety about participating in convo's absolutely will greatly limit your engagement. I don't know any way around that, other than get IRL famous for something, or work at engaging more yourself.
Like you're doing now. :)
bluesky's all about jumping into the conversation. i promise most people won't bite, unless you want them to i guess, but for the most part it's just Jumping In.
Jumping in, just, like
without being an Average Cis Man about it
I hear you.
I used to jump, but then people (trans people for the record) started bitching at me for being in their mentions or replying to threads that they apparently didn't want me in because I dared to express a different point of view.
1/?
I'll admit I had a bit of an immature bitchy meltdown over it. Got blocked (fairly) by some of them.
But then the same thing happened a few days later on a different topic.
Now normally: I generally subscribe to The if you keep running into assholes, theory.
But I generally try to be respectful.
In the end I blocked some people who apparently obviously didn't care or want to hear what I had to say, but I've also moderated and don't jump in as often as I used to.
all a question of when, where, and how you're jumping in. by jump in i just mean reply to people normally without fear, but that doesn't mean get super over-familiar or start beefing with people or shit like that. just gotta act like you belong and you'll be fine
I get that. I didn't think I was doing any of that tbh and since blocking those handful of people it really hasn't been an issue since.
Still made me a little shy about it though.
def start at the shallow end of the pool to get a feel for the water. you'll start to develop your regulars and things like that and it'll be chilling
Yeah good corollary cause people will actively bite here just, you know, like with consent
I'll second this, for me BlueSky has been a much more "social" version of "social media" akin to old forums and shit.
People are way more interactive with posts than I'd gotten used to with Twitter and crap.
This has mostly held true across my feed on various topics.
my only issue is that I'm far too lazy+unclever to be a noticed recurring name in people's notifications. but it's very obvious to me how this site works.
and if someone's skyline makes them feel like they need to post lewds to fit in, didn't they sorta cultivate that for themselves?
yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
... Clock is the new feet?
I’ve been trying to figure out the best phasing for “post clock on main” without success, so I’m just gonna respectfully leave it here and scamper off.
You done good, kid.
Katie we all know you're just a badly drawn Microsoft paint clock irl. you've been posting nudes from day1
unlike ME, a good christian chaste trans woman who has NEVER posted ANYTHING with less than 3 layers of clothes and room for Jesus between me and the camera
EXACTLY!
hey wait
Go Home Productions - Papa was a clock
Two classic songs mixed!Coldplay - clocksThe temptations - Papa was a rolling stone
youtu.beidk i followed for the nudes
the long con. i respect that
It’s like that Venture Bros. gag about The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
i haven't actually watched much venture bros.
worth watching?
It’s very good though I haven’t seen it all
I've seen all of it but the movie, & it gets better & better over time. That said, I think it's one of those shows that if it doesn't click for you after maybe 4-8 episodes, it's probably just not your kind of thing.
I think you can say that about nearly anything. If you're over an hour into a piece of media and you're not enjoying it, move on. Life's too short.
Yeah, it's not a bad guideline, but sometimes it is worth giving a show extra time. I'm thinking particularly of The Expanse, which I found very slow for the first 4+ episodes, & ended up being one of the best SF TV shows I've ever seen.
Yeah, sometimes shows get rough starts due to budget and time constraints, and we've all got that one game we fell in love with after the first two chapters were slogs.
I don't think that there's any requirement to post nudes and I don't even know if I'm thinking about the same posts you are, but I very much feel like a sizable portion of the transfemme part of this site has a presumption that other trans women are all interested in highly sexual posts
Like I'm not running away from the site because of it but I am a little tired of trans women taking parts of their sexual lives that they find personally affirming and extrapolating it to be an inherent part of trans identity
i think that is largely a function of who you follow and i'd suggest following less outwardly sexual trans women. there's plenty of 'em
I'm almost certainly falling prey to selection bias, it's true
If it helps, I’m pretty sure the only unclothed pictures I’ve posted here are of my dog ;)
Nobody here has seen my face, let alone my body. Just my terrible terrible posts, as it should be.
So you’re saying I should change my name to Tally Newpussy for clout?
oh, oh, i'll be nattie nopussy
wait what’s your actual name?
well, it's not lisa. i go by nat
Can you get everyone to please stop calling *me* Nat because I don’t like it :P
i've always called you natalie!
It is appreciated.
that's why you're the respectful transexual
the sole reason
people keep shortening Antinoë into "Anti" instead of "Tina" i hate it 😿
Do you ever get Antigone at Starbuck’s or Costa or whatever equivelant there is in France?
oh, i use Tina directly in these cases ^^
We just call it "le Starbucks". Because of the metric system.
My favourite joke about that Pulp Fiction scene was in some Saturday morning cartoon where two generic crooks are like
“You know what they call cheese in Paris?”
“What?”
“Fromage”
“Fromage!!! Haha! Like they got a whole other language or something”
My favourite joke about Pulp Fiction is a whole fake trailer made in the 90s by French news parody show Les Guignols, where the various characters are replaced by right wing politicians, and Vincent Vega is played by Jacques Chirac, who goes on to kill the various other right wingers.
(the 1990s election had two conservative candidates, Chirac and Balladur, and was perceived as a "civil war" among conservatives, and Chirac nicknamed as a "sniper")
1995*
Auto generated subtitles are shit. Mostly Chirac talks about liking coffee, then they notice they're early, they talk about killing another politician, then Sarkozy says Édouard Balladur won't run as president, and the punchline is Chirac still enjoys the job after 20 years.

youtu.beOh and his mate, Philippe Séguin, just says "That's crazy" again and again
Man I haven’t thought about Chirac in forever. I remember him being a lot more prominent in Canadian news than Marcon or Sarkozy. But maybe that’s because the EU made individual trade relations less important or something?
His opposition to the Iraq war made him newsworthy in the early 2000s
He also visited Nova Scotia for a G7 summit when I was a kid there!
I don't remember there even being a G7. Wonder who was the 8th addition. China?
Probably? G7 was Canada, US, UK, France, Germany, Japan, and… um… Italy, I think?
In retrospect, Eastern Canada was a good choice for hosting in that you’ve got 4 of the 7 countries’ languages handled.
Such a shame they couldn't bee there for the fall of the Montreal wall though
La Vie Mode d’Emploi
The 8th was Russia, added in the 90s in a "yes dear, you're very important" ego-salving gesture during its post-Soviet slump. It's been the G7 again since 2014, because when someone annexes the Sudetenland you stop inviting them to parties.
also, he personally took charge of a lot of diplomacy stuff during the 97-02 cohabitation because he had nothing else to do politically so he was doing lots of international trips
And I forgot Hollande even existed until just now 😂
Ah, yes, the French Joe Biden
Oh my I remember that... Funny enough, in my head I'm not even able to ear the real voice of Chirac, only the Guignol's one

People don’t use end-of-name nicknames enough. They’re often much nicer. Like I INFINITELY prefer Tally to Nat.
I think these days Drew and Beth are the only common English ones?
topher? nny?
Topher is pretty rare, though.
I’m trying to think cos there must be more but I can’t call any to mind.
yeah, alright you did say common, my bad
A friend of mine calls me Gogot and the only reason I haven't killed her for it is she's a good singer
I would have guessed "Titine"
it *is* a vast and terrible burden to bear, i agree. i will do what i can.
I tried changing my name to Katie Tightpussy a while back, & it didn't do shit for my numbers. :(
We all got out on a blocklist for that day 🤣
We all got put on a blocklist for that day's shenanigans 🤣
What, really? It can't have been by anybody very notable.
Lol oh hell on
One sec lemme find it; it's named with such butthurt
Oh yeah! I remember this! I think I ended up on it too.
Any idea why they where upset about it?
I think they just hated Katie in general like the dumbass du jour hates Kairi
That's the vibe I picked up yeah
Meh
"Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke"
the list is also extremely just a transphobe list. like 50% of the people don't follow me on there and are just random trans women
lol. No loss there.
My name already combines anime and pussy and don't know how much further I can take it.
I post nudes of my pussies all the time too.
(fun fact, for years at the Bad Place on the birthday of Eva creator Anno, a Japanese artist would tag me in fan art thinking I was affiliated officially, I tried my best to tell this adorable artist boi I wasn't but he didn't understand English, I hope he's doing well)
yeah... I dont see a lot of nudes but just from the jokes most of the funniest people I follow are trans women 🤷
your nudes are your movie reviews, they are deeply revealing
so true
like, i see your core when you're like "this korean movie? slaps!" and we're all like "aw hell yeah katie mmmmf"
LOL
I don't get the drive for followers. Making friends (or at least friendly acquaintances), sure, but why would anyone treat becoming an internet microcelebrity into a goal? The cons seem to outweigh the pros like five to one.
Like I guess if you're building a brand for some project you're trying to get off the ground, like a writing / art career or something, it might be worth the stress, but otherwise? It's just "line goes up" silliness but with internet nerds instead of money.
yeah exactly. at first it's fun to see number go up but then you realize there's absolutely no merit to it if you don't have something you're trying to sell, so now number go up mostly means more people being insane towards me lmfao. that and more people to talk to, which can be good
I had a twitter account hit 10k in the early 10s and I deleted it. it's awful having any amount of followers! people think you owe them stuff!
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
I'm not sure what the point is in gaining followers for followers sake. Number go up? I understand if you need MA or are someone who makes money off the audience (SW or not) but it's just as good (maybe better) when you have less followers.
All it does for Katie is get her fake cancelled eight days a week and weird bozos in her mentions sometimes it seems. I've had bozos in my mentions it's no fun.
i like getting to talk to more people but the downside about getting to talk to more people is that it also means less normal people
Meanwhile, I don't post nudes because I generally want to keep my followers...
NEIL.😅 which btw, we need to talk jewelry— so if you posted some of that… i wouldn’t be mad
I posted a new piece that just got in yesterday. People hate it. Story of my life. ;)
It’s definitely never boring in tightpussy land, for sure.
Drama for daaaays
Speaking of which… I need more popcorn.
Like as a trans-woman i always found it annoying that they do that. Like i get it some trans women are fucking hot af same with some trans-men but like. I just feel like it gives us a bad rep sometimes idk.... :(
I feel that, imo as a trans-woman myself i find it very annoying when people do this because. I get the feeling thats how people see us.
space between trans and the gender please, not a dash
:p finneee
it's an important clarification
well iam a transwoman and i am just use to doing it is all
I see, I see. Nudes OR ritual cancellation.
Growing my audience by being dope w chill vibes
literally that easy
I have literally NO idea what you even look like.
lmfao yeah there's like 4 pictures of me on bluesky and none are selfies!
I’m sorry…this is NOT A SELFIE?!
No, *this* is a selfie of Katie.
That one is a portrait.
how'd you get this image of me
He collected all the strawberry’s fam
Hell yes new sicko!!!!
there's a bunch of katie sickos 😭
Gotta collect them all now
Have a MadCat if you don’t have one already
I did was about to post it but have kitty!!!
ROBIN YOUR HOOD
I simply chose to believe that you look like that Madison from Celeste pic you posted and refuse to consider any alternative.
you are just your profile picture but irl somehow.
I've never felt any pressure to post nudes- hell, I don't even post any pictures of myself!- though in fairness I also don't care about growing an audience, I'm just here to inflict my musical opinions on everyone whether they want them or not. 😝
that's how you gotta do it
you post hot tho (funny and transsexually)
see exactly you get it. hotness is a state of mind
aheh, uhm, sweatie? You have pussy in your name, heh, that's just as bad and sexualizing as nudes, didn't you know? *pushes glasses up nose*
also you know one of these days your ultrakill photo is gonna be lumped in with people's actual nudes, if it hasn't already
i hope it is. that'd be really funny. a single non-sexual legs-only thirst trap is basically on par with full front nudity
They're calling it "the road less taken"
kid named autism:
fr
i literally follow you so i can gush to you about f1 and why driving sucks and to read ur film reviews
that's what it's all about!!!
clocks, f1, movies, and nightly cancellations.
There is a lot of overlap between Ebikers and Trans forks. I wonder if it is the willingness to live without consideration for others projected place in society. A Women should look like this, a bike should be like this.
Regardless, a lot of people need to not worry what's between some ones legs.
If what is between my legs is causing you so much mental stress, I think you have the problem not me.
We struggled to get to this place, we were here first, this is our area, etc. I can understand some of the envy or lust for our easy of adoption. I hope the people stuck can find a way through.
random trans woman: "I can only get followers by posting nudes, lifes unfair"
Me: "Well, yes, life IS unfair, but the only thing that gets less traction than my nudes is me asking for MA."
1/cont
People rarely follow me for my nudes, and, genuinely, I'm actually happy they don't.
Idk, maybe it's just me giving nothing about followers or simply seeing myself as hot as I am, but my pictures aren't even something special. Its just me.
2/cont
And I'd rather want people follow me because over similar interest/friend-/relationship building, rather than being sexualized.
3/cont
Yes, I could use the money I "possibly" could've get from the nudes. I mean, I'm disabled and living only from bare retirement benefits, without proper medical infrastructure, but I genuinely just posting them because I love myself to the point where I simply don't care about monetization.
4/cont
And yes, life is unfair. I stopped crying about as well, learned to accept how the cards are that got dealt to me, and now I'm moving onwards from here - and I genuinely waited WAY TOO LONG with THAT.
Those who'll follow me will, those who don't just don't. THAT IS LIFE.
5/end
Clout brain: not even once
I'm just here for the funny posts! I don't think anyone got e-fame for nudes more than their posts
I've literally never seen anyone doing this. Just block those people and move on.
honestly all I've seen is people bitching about others whining which does absolutely nothing to change these issues. Just ignore it, block those people, and move on.
you missed it then. it was a whole thing and it was very, very, very stupid
Again; if you're that butthurt about it, just block these idiots and move on. Most of us know these people are morons.
Making posts about it is just perpetuating useless drama, and I'm sick of people like you showing up on my discovery feed.
"people like you" so what, trans women?
I see more people like you whining than I do people genuinely causing problems for this website. This site was made to stop perpetuating immature twitter drama, yet half the people who have migrated here since it's been opened up just love starting shit half of us never see.
just wondering: have you been here for one week or for two?
I've been on here since it was closed beta. Ever since it's been opened up all I see is unnecessary drama. No amount of blocking seems to stop it, since unlike with these people you're complaining about. People who whine relentlessly are not flagged, and easy to block on here.
have you considered following more people who you deem as drama-free then
so take yr own advice—block em and move on
Doctor, heal thyself
could you not take yr own advice and block the drama off of your discovery feed?
bc rn you are complaining about someone complaining about skeets.
just seems hypocritical is all
you know, if you took your own advice instead of condescendingly telling strangers to take your advice, i’ll bet everyone involved would be happier.
You’re on my feed a lot for someone complaining about people being on your feed for complaining

a trans woman misinterpreted another trans woman (not great but happens, all respect to her)
and to show how bad it is for trans women to throw trans women under the bus…those same people are throwing the first trans woman under the bus.
BE KIND. BE NORMAL WHAT THE FUCK
but I've learned in my months on bluesky that being hot and posting nudes is the only thing trans women are good for on here, including to other trans women, so I don't know why I bother to post anything else

Bananas how cleanly the "if a woman has TOO many muscles, is she still a woman?" debate in this movie maps on to the current "are trans women women?" mainstream discourse.
trans women referring to trans women as "dolls" was extremely common on older social media sites like the birdsite to be clear it's not a bluesky invention
and on a tangentially related subject why yes it's legal for cis women to be jealous of how gorgeous trans women are
"trans women are truly the women of women" "trans women are like elves" "don't call me a cis woman because it's rude to imply that i'm a type of woman that trans women can't be" "t4t is like incest" "circumcision is good because it makes it harder for trans women to get bottom surgery"
incredible
The patriarchy doesn't like women allowing themselves to be sexual on social media. They use this as a vehicle to deny women especially trans women from women's spaces as they try to make out trans women are sexual perverts that only want access to women's spaces for the sole purpose of sex. WRONG!
It's a website of missing and dead trans people. We do get murdered far more, on average. One way that happens is when trans women get forced into men's spaces. It's not the only way, and it's not just trans women (see: Nex Benedict), but it is one way.
the #1 thing i've never understood about transphobes is the idea that trans women are somehow taking something away from you. as if there's only so many women that are allowed to be on earth at a time and every time someone transitions they have to wipe out a cis woman to keep the numbers right
ok, being on trans bluesky has really opened my eyes to the whole "trans women were worshipped in ancient cultures" thing.
not only are we all literal goddesses, but every trans woman I follow on here is shitposting at a religious level.
Looking back on the "racist trans women" discourse it really takes a shitload of contempt for queer people to compare a random trans woman to a fucking Nazi
i love how everything being reduced to yelling at a trans woman online was because that trans woman was being racist to a bunch of other trans women and white trans women are making it about that specific trans woman because they want to be the white pussy she obsesses over
I saw a post on Instagram about trans women in sports making no reference to the fact that cis women in sports are already the generic elite, and only going on and on about trans women POTENTIALLY having higher bone density than ...THE AVERAGE WOMAN.
SIR, CIS WOMEN ARE NOT A MONOLITHIC BIOLOGY
I see a lot of trans women come across my timeline. I like trans women, but I’d like to be following more trans men. Where are the trans dudes on Bluesky?
the only followers I gain on twitter are pornbots now
they're pretending to be trans women now which is somehow creepier to me
And, whilst I have your attention, ABSOLUTELY THE WORST thing you can do is to call a trans woman a "trans identified male" (TIM for short). It's a term only used by the most extreme terfs and it denies trans women both their identity and their agency.
Trans women are women. The end.
A reminder, prompted by some nonsense I saw on Xitter: it is always transphobic to call trans women “male” or “males.” It makes no difference if you put “biological” in front of it.
I think it's almost always offered in good faith, to be fair.
(To anyone wondering why some trans women find it problematic: it's largely to do with the implication that a trans woman only "becomes" a woman post-transition. Most trans people would regard themselves as having always been trans).
