Good afternoon everyone, I hope you have had a fabulous day in Australia and for those who are elsewhere, I hope you have a great day coming up! #transwidowsOz - today, we're going to talk about abuse. 🧵
I present part III of @PankhurstEM's analysis of AGP males in heterosexual relationships, involving unwilling women, coerced into doing things they don't want to do. uncommongroundmedia.com/agp-males-dome… 1/*
It's hard when the domestic abuse that these women experiences doesn't involve physical violence as we understand it. For years, domestic violence, even with the white ribbon campaign has focused on physical abuse, drugs, alcohol etc. 2/* #transwidowsOz#transwidows
There are other forms of abuse, emotional, financial, sexual. Coercion is used to force the female partner of the AGP transwoman to participate in dressing up, going out, holding hands, or other acts that I won't discuss, but you can read more here shorturl.at/bHJM0 3/*
I could say not all men, not all AGPs, however, there are studies showing that AGP men, get off on COS playing as women, & transwidows have discussed elsewhere being used by their spouses & children to participate and validate. There's no consent here. 4/4 #transwidowsOz
Good afternoon everyone, in Australia, it's a great day if the Federal ICAC passes through parliament, to friends on the other side of the planet, winter is coming, buckle up. Getting to today's subject of sex, kinks etc. 1/*
Many women who've been involved with transwomen who are AGP, would agree, there is a strong element of pornography. Not all the time, but it's safe to say, that it's the opinion of this account, that pornography serves to validate & normalise this behaviour. 3/* #transwidowsOz
On another note, while reading articles on sexuality & gender for couples who have a transitioning partner, some papers are presenting the concept that female partners have left rather than stay. In my experience, that hasn't happened. However, there's not enough data yet.
And interestingly, all the papers suggest affirmation and sexual therapy for both people in the relationship to learn how to be with each other again. That sounds like conversion therapy to my uneducated eyes, so more reading will need to be done.

This is part II of a series of articles that @PankhurstEM wrote regarding Autogynophilic men in relationships with women. Despite a few people who believe that AGP has been debunked, it hasn't. shorturl.at/bdTY2

Dr EM discusses the techniques used in these relationships to maintain coercive control, emotional blackmail.
If you support the AGP man as being brave and needing support, you are contributing to the loss of agency that the spouse (wife) has in this situation. #transwidowsOz
Women in these relationships are subordinate to the male. AGPs claiming their spouse supports them, is causing deep psychological harm to the woman that they think they love, and their children, by forcing them to accept a change that they did not consent to. #transwidowsOz
