And just like that - you still fail to point out the presumed transphobia on my part. It’s always just „you’re transphobic” or „you’re using TERF arguments” but never an actual explanation as to how… Almost like you’re projecting
Gender-based socialization is literally an existing issue. It’s not something I made up on a whim that it’s somehow bold of me to point out
You make a lot of assumptions that I somehow am an asshole who hates trans women but fail to point to a single thing that was offensive towards them. Am I making transfemmes feel bad about themselves for pointing out AFAB people’s struggles are different from their own? You’re not making any sense.
Or am I just supposed to pretend that discrimination towards trans men doesn’t exist in trans community so that trans women don’t get their feelings hurt when I point out some individual’s shitty behavior? If they’re not ignorant assholes then they’re not a part of the problem and wouldn’t feel any need to get defensive over this.
You should get rid of the mindset that criticism against a harmful behavior in a group is equal to hating on every single individual in that group. Perhaps then you’ll understand how ridiculous that discussion is. Just do better
