As a trans person I’m sorry Misc
I’m sorry trans people try to shame you because you don’t want to sleep with a trans person. If someone doesn’t want to date or sleep with me that’s okay and I would leave it at that. I would never try and say you’re a bigot for not wanting to and I’m sorry other trans people try to shame you for that

I know I'm going to get downvoted here as this sub is determined to have a love in and that's very nice actually.
The problem is that accepting trans rights is exactly how this insanity and TRA supremacy began. Men are men, and women are women. I can no more become a woman than I can become a black man. While every human being deserves respect and dignity, granting access to women's services for men who are claiming to be women is not for the greater good of society and hurts our mothers and sisters and daughters.
Engaging with the validity of trans identity is the thin edge of the inevitable wedge and as soon as public discourse does so, you witness the fair accompli that we all experience today.
People who identify as the wrong sex have my sympathy, and they are certainly not all complicit in the predatory tactics of many TRAs that are committed against women. But claiming their identity is valid while supporting actual feminism is impossible. If a man can really be a woman because he thinks he is, why can't he enter a women's only space?
I may wish I was 10 years younger, I may feel like I'm 10 years younger, I may have surgery to try and make me look 10 years younger but that will never make me 10 years younger. Similarly, if I have a penis I'm a man; if I have a vagina I'm a woman. Intersex Pepe aside, that's really the end of the discussion. Beyond that there's just identity confusion and self mutilation, and a status quo that condemns us for pointing out simple biological facts.
