The most confusing thing about talking to transphobes is rejecting my explanation of how I was suicidal before I accepted my gender identity, and now I’m perfectly happy. It’s not a hard concept but people refuse to accept it.

I think it’s because people think the suicide rate for trans people is because they’re trans, not because of the lack of acceptance and bullying that comes with being trans, and feeling like you’d rather die than be forced to live as someone you’re not. I guess it doesn’t fit into their ‘mentally ill’ narrative though, so when met with someone like me they’ll bend over backwards to try to explain the inverse correlation between my suicidal thoughts and my acceptance of my trans identity lmaooo

they legitimately think that being trans is the mental illness, not the gender dysphoria which transitioning treats, so it gives them an excuse for their actions

There’s genuinely no convincing these people otherwise and the most we can do is hope they go back to their little hidey holes once trans people aren’t the ‘cool’ minority to pick on anymore

If someone is anemic would you tell them that they are right and shouldn’t eat?

I’m 99% sure they meant anorexic or something because anemic people eat a normal diet, but the fact that this guy can’t even get that right means they’re too lazy to even ragebait properly and it’s very disappointing

So what part of “I was suicidal before i accepted being trans” is lost on you? Because if someone starves themself they’ll die, but if I don’t present the way I want, I’ll probably end up suicidal again (i.e. die). So like there’s a very different treatments for anorexia and gender dysphoria.

You seriously just can’t let go of this “being trans = mentally ill” mindset when you have a trans person staring you in your face telling you I would have killed myself if I DIDNT transition in any way. Like I said, literally no changing y’all’s minds.
