Yeh, I think another part of it is probably cis men being SO creepy that the only reason they could possibly think of “wanting” to be trans is so they can be perverts to women in women’s bathrooms, so they think that trans women can’t POSSIBLY be normal humans. Noooooo, “tHaTs a mAn fAkInG iT so he can be a creep!” When really that’s just them projecting.
As a trans woman I appreciate this. I think it’s important to acknowledge that while all of us experience transphobia it varies in degrees and severity. Like yall have your own issues and those are valid but people aren’t starting a nationwide campaign to label you as sex offenders while posting art on Twitter specifically designed to make you dysphoric…
