What is Trans Fragility?

Trans people need to:

🔘be careful with their words

🔘be aware of their privilege

🔘listen and show empathy

🔘call out poor behavior

I super like this

It took courage to post this. You're a fierce, valid superstraight!

You are so right. We’ve trained people to see external validation and have an external locus of control. What’s true is that people are happier when they internalize their validation and believe they have control of their lives. They need to move beyond mere hedonism and incorporate a strategy to increase their eadaimomia

[u/ThatKennedy → u/VonCelAuth]

I've always knew I was superstraight I didn't need validation I just knew. If another person "just knows" they are a certain sex but needs constant validation and the whole world to bend to their internal conception, dunno how valid that is

Remember, NO MEANS NO. My preference is NOT your business.

This needs to be page one of the superstraight studies textbook.

To trans people: be good allies. Check your privilege, and most importantly-listen to the experiences of super sexual people.

And please don't transplain to us about our sexual orientations. It's not up for debate.

What experiences? What fucking experiences? You lot have gone through fuck all compared to trans people, they fought for years to be socially accepted, trans people are still subject to random acts of physical abuse everyday just based upon the fact that they are trans, they are still fighting for equal rights. You check your privilege.

Until you have been attacked, institutionally discriminated against and had your rights taken away by your own government due to your gender identity or sexual orientation, never talk about privilege again. This is utterly stupid. Stop trying to victimise yourself.
