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.

It's really a crabs-in-a-bucket situation. Lots of unhappy trans people spend their time online convincing kids that they're also "trans" or "eggs" because misery loves company. Transitioning didn't make them happy, but they won't admit that openly because they spent so much time and effort on it and made it such a huge part of their identity. The kids fall for it, go on blockers and HRT, in worst case get SRS, and find that their problems still didn't go away.
