I don’t know why so many of y’all need a reminder but “trans” is not a plural noun. It is an adjective. “Trans(gender) people” is the plural. “A trans” ❌ A trans person/man/woman ✅ “Some trans” ❌ Some trans people/men/women ✅

Also, it’s not ‘transperson/transman/transwoman’ or the plural as a singular word. There is a space in there.

Or the “that lifestyle” bullshit. Bitch. Being Queer isn’t a lifestyle. Being an ignorant asshole hating on Queer people, though, is.

There are the labels and there is the community. People saying 'that lifestyle' are probably just conflating the two, which is honestly not unreasonable given how outspoken the community is.

people who call it a lifestyle normally do so because they want to imply how they think it’s a choice to be queer :)

my dad is 66 and he said he was proud of me when I came out as trans. some of these people don’t even try to understand. I’m not going to be generous if they won’t do the same.
