While I agree the sentiment is transphobic, it is a choice. The other choice is that you hate your life and suffer and maybe die but your default setting is not transitioned, you have to do something for that to happen. People are arguing different points

You can't read. I never said being trans was a choice, I said transitioning is an active choice that you have to make. If you wanna argue against things I didn't say, go for it, it's your right :)

You are arguing that people can hide their queerness by not transitioning which is objectively not true

Yes it's not the same as racism, no shit, but many queer people cannot hide it

That's actually not my argument at all, I think I say pretty explicitly and clearly what my argument is and it has nothing to do with hiding anything

transitioning isn't what makes someone identifiably queer. actually, NOT transitioning usually is identifiably queer. you are arguing people can choose across the board whether or not people see them as queer
