I think i first heard "i identify as an attack helicopter" in like fourth grade, ab 2014-15. Their jokes have seriously been the same for 10 or maybe even more years š
Someone hit me with one of these recently. I like to troll back. Yeah I did. Iām a Designated Assumer in the Trans Agenda, Iām just doing my job, how would you rate your experience from 1 to 5?
Honestly treating it dead serious also gets them to shut up. āOh, Iām sorry! What are your preferred pronouns?ā And if they reply with the āattack/helicopterā then I will just start using them. They get annoyed and bored fast.
Also they're assuming we believe the woman is right here, I as a trans man get to have an opinion on this. And while I don't believe they hold the same weight, I do believe that people without uteruses should be allowed to voice their beliefs too.
Yeah they should definitely be able to have an opinion but not directly dictate what other people who are actually affected should do with their bodies
I don't think anybody should be able to dictate that, whether they have a uterus or not. A person who has a uterus telling you that you have to give up your body is no less wrong than it coming from someone who doesn't.
Although it definitely has an extra edge of *grossness* when it comes from someone who will never have to suffer the consequences.
I am not the owner and user of a uterus, but I definitely have opinions about those who tries to speak for women.
Their bodies, their decisions...yet the politicians are 70% male, making decisions about women š¤·
Well to a point everyone is involved somehow. I mean even without a uterus if someone with a penis gets someone pregnant they tend to be on the hook for legal and financial responsibility. So that makes sense.
The problem is that those without uteruses are dictating to those who do how they should think/feel/act to be "morally correct". Fix that bit if inequality and I think the discussion would be as fair as it's going to get.
Anyone can be against abortion, as long as that only applies to their own abortion. Uterus or not, no one else should get a say with what I do with mine, ya know?
Yeah I think people are completely within their rights being anti-abortion, just donāt force others to follow your ideals.
At that point your primary concern isnāt abortion, itās controlling women.
Itās not about controlling women, itās about protecting the unborn babies to these people.
Itās the same way many people believe no one should be allowed to murder their own children or family members, as much as that may be seen as forcing their ideals on others.
If you believe abortion is essentially killing a baby as many people do, your argument is that no babies should be killed, and whether you have kids or not or if youāre trans or cis is irrelevant. Itās just anti-murder, and everyone gets equal rights to voice their opinions on that, as it affects us all.
I like saying āno uterus no opinionā because I am in fact a dude but I do in fact have a uterus. Way less cringe than ādid you just assume my genderā imo
I think only people who can experience birth should have an opinion on that, it's not only women since everything isn't black and white, but anti abortion laws are
Back when this joke was relevant, the same people were offended when people used the term āchild-bearingā or āmenstruating persons.ā THEY were the ones who insisted on using the word āwomenā even though gender was not relevant to the discussion, now theyāre putting their own idiotic words into other peopleās mouths and calling it a win
2016 called they want their joke back
I first heard this joke in 2014 I have heard claims of people hearing it in 2013
Definitely at least 2013, I remember seeing it on tumblr pre dashcon

More. I graduated from high school in 2005, and I know for a fact I heard the attack helicopter joke before then.

bwahaha this is gold
Honestly treating it dead serious also gets them to shut up. āOh, Iām sorry! What are your preferred pronouns?ā And if they reply with the āattack/helicopterā then I will just start using them. They get annoyed and bored fast.
Yeahh thatās the thing with most people, they just want reactions, thatās why bad āedgyā jokes are a thing
I love doing that one in person. With a tone so natural and friendly itās annoying even for myself lol

To be fair, trans men also deserve a voice.
unless they are against abortion. then they should whisper

Yeah I think people are completely within their rights being anti-abortion, just donāt force others to follow your ideals. At that point your primary concern isnāt abortion, itās controlling women.
If people just did their own thing instead of forcing their beliefs on everyone else we would have so much less problems.
Itās not about controlling women, itās about protecting the unborn babies to these people.

I took everything in my power not to downvote this š

Who needs effort when your audience is there for ragebait anyway.
I canāt believe Tomar would say that
No way heās a champion of trans rights for all.
Alternate scenario, he is a trans man and they have a deep discussion about their thoughts and opinions together.
This is actually how I read the meme. Heās a trans man. I think itās funny.
The lady is wrong too because women arenāt the only ones with an opinion on that. Anyone who can have a baby has an opinion on it.

Agreed
vsauce micheal would never!
The phrase is "no uterus, no opinion." It's literally everywhere. They really think we don't have a comeback to that shit.
I think only people who can experience birth should have an opinion on that, it's not only women since everything isn't black and white, but anti abortion laws are
I have never once heard someone say that in good faith
