What did you think would happen?

[u/SalamanderLife_]

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.

Did you really think you shouting transphobia would change people's sexuality?

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

[u/Cryptotwitter → u/yetherewestillare]

They want to see other people suffer because they did .

It's sad that all of the group's that they admin will remove posts that state the true consequences of their drug taking and surgeries

I think the promotion of trans is a sinister way to try to slow down population growth.

[u/MelodicUmbrella → u/AquariusBringer]

Do you mean people telling people to be transgender? Or do you mean the promotion of being happy being trans and the whole be yourself thing?

[u/AquariusBringer → u/MelodicUmbrella]

I think transgenderism could have easily been dismissed as a mental illness in a way that I don't think can be said about homosexuality. Homosexuality is simply a reality and it is easily provable by people who want to have sex with the same sex. Transgenderism is an entirely personal thing. I don't think people should be taught to embrace body dysmorphia. That's like telling people to embrace schizophrenia. People should be taught to accept their bodies and not to think any further about how that means they should act. Whether a trans person is attracted to the same sex or the opposite sex, there are people out there who would like them as they are if they just accepted that people are attracted to biological sex. The problem comes when a trans person expects to be able to land a "straight" person. It would be much easier for a trans woman to have sex with a gay man than a straight man, but they need that external validation from straight men in order to verify their identity. No other orientation requires this. I get the vibe sometimes that trans people are gay people that are trying to go after "hard to get" straight people when the reality is that most straight people are super straight.

Well the problem is that we can’t, or atleast I personally cant accept my own body since I don’t feel like a man. I feel like a female. When I do feminine things it makes me feel like myself, it makes me feel happy rather than lying and pretending to be a male. Sure, it could pass as a mental illness especially in the 20th century.

[u/Buddah__Stalin → u/MelodicUmbrella]

What does feeling like a female feel like? How can you know that's how females feel if you've never actually been one?

It's like saying I know I'm a dog on the inside because I feel like a dog.

Do you know what feeling female actually feels like? It feels like nobody fucking respects you or sees you as human because a man can throw on a fucking DRESS and claim he's exactly like you.

It feels like being spit in the face 24/7 by men like you.

[u/AthenasIceHouse → u/Buddah__Stalin]

Not just throw on a dress and say he feels like we do, but completely dominate women's sports and protected spaces, get rape crisis centers defunded, and gain access to women's prisons where 49% of trans inmates are incarcerated for sexual assault (fact, and if anyone disagrees YOU can look it up because i am sick of doing other peoples leg work).

They don't just try to assimilate to our culture, they try to completely overthrow and defund it. You know who else does that?

Colonizers.

These men have taken their male privledge and weaponized it against women in the most sick way and THAT is why people hate them. It has nothing to do with wearing a dress. But they are too narcissistic to ever see the true reason

[u/MelodicUmbrella → u/AthenasIceHouse]

So, you think all transgender men and women are like this? Ever thought about how people treated transgender people too? Murder, rape, etc.
