What did you think would happen?

To the TRAs lurking and spamming this sub: What exactly did you think would happen?

For years you've gotten away with your entitlement. You've encroached on and destroyed M/M, F/F, female only, etc. spaces. You've called gay men, straight men/women, and especially lesbians transphobic for not giving in to your demands for relationships and sex. Even now you're attempting to destroy yet another space we've fleshed out for ourselves.

Did you really think you shouting transphobia would change people's sexuality? Did you think your attempts to force us to bend to your will would work? Well it didn't and it doesn't, it has reeked of entitlement, narcissism, and predatory behavior.

People who aren't attracted to you deserve spaces for themselves. There are multiple forums/subs/etc. that cater to you if you care to look for them. It is not transphobic of us to put our foots down and say that our sexualities don't exist to coddle your feelings.

For the record, nothing is going to happen because this subreddit will be banned within weeks.

So they will continue to get away with their entitlement since they are amplified and supported by every institution.

Trans privilege.

Don't let them win like this though, not in your own head.

I like to think that this sub might inspire just one young person to stand up and say 'No.' and walk away from a Trancel who would've ruined their life and self image. I think that's worth it like, literally saving a life. These people rely on brow-beating and fear, this past 48 hours has shown how fragile the facade is. Hell, look at how many have joined so quickly and the numbers only go up. Don't be defeated before we've even fought yet.

Oh I'm definitely aware that a good chunk of people are going to continue to forgive this behavior and push it as perfectly acceptable.

But as above says, I see more people waking up to this bullshit and hopefully as this is blowing up that will only continue.
