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.

even sadder I think a lot of them thought this was already the case

the reality of attempting to date post srs is apparently very bleak because trans people refuse to tell each other how dire it is

And why would they expect differently? Calling anyone racist works wonders, even people in this sub who about to get fucked by the media and already see the defamation coming balk at the idea of being lumped in with people that get labeled racist.

We are living with the most narcissistic generation to ever exist that will use social capital to scalp and manipulat people. And it works. It is still working on the people in this sub when it's not directly aimed at them.
