I really think assigned gender at birth and trans status must be the ONLY personal identity/anatomy related lies or omissions that are considered to render a consensual encounter retroactively rape.

Right, no one's going "you said you were nineteen but you're only fifteen? it's juvie for you!!" (but also, and frankly what I was thinking of: no one's coming for young-looking thirtysomethings who pass themselves off as 28 to seem more desirable or date younger people, etc)

been thinking a lot about how consent language got twisted into a knife against trans people. it's like the "social contagion" propaganda fully metastized into our personhoods being a transmissible (sexual) disease
