Gender inclusive term?
Context: I'm nonbinary (trans masc / genderfluid, he/they), and in a wonderful relationship now - weve been together almost a decade, happily married to my wife who is also trans!
I'm also a survivor of nonconsensual incidents in past relationships, and its part of my C-PTSD. >! multiple incidents of SA/rape, some by women and some by men - the men used physical force, and there was fear of becoming pregnant, so those were scarier. !<
There was a moment I was triggered recently, and I realized I lacked a word for my experience.
I want a word to describe the othering / marginalization, which is inclusive of all people with the capacity for pregnancy. Feeling very tender about this subject in today's political climate, esp when The Island and lack of justice for the victims are brought up.
My goal is being thoughtful/ sensitive in this discussion re the feelings of folks who wish they could give birth too.
UPDATE - sorry for multiple edits, I worded my initial question poorly and wanted to make sure I correct this so I don't hurt others with poor word choice.
>! Rape is rape, !< can happen to anyone, and no one deserves it. I don't want to diminish the experiences of other victims. I'm a survivor as well, and dont want others to have to go through it.
I'm not sure how to frame this experience, want to be thoughtful and inclusive with the term.
Example: person A is capable of becoming pregnant, and is forced to carry a child of >!rape!< because of some awful legislation, and person B is not capable of becoming pregnant. If person B wishes, they don't Have To pay attention as closely to that legislation.
Is there a word for the specific discriminatory experience of person A that is inclusive of all genders?
Is there also a word for being able to "not worry" about being forced to experience this situation, which is also inclusive of all genders?
I ask this second question because in my own experience, ive noticed people of all genders in my life who do not have pregnancy capacity (all wonderful people who I love very much, cis and trans) don't necessarily keep informed as well about medical/ legislative issues that would affect people who Do.
( Ex: legislation on birth control/ marginalized bodies with the capacity for pregnancy, or to politicians advocating for forced births of >!rape!< victims.)
