As a trans person...

The "stuff" to be laughed off was anti-trans slurs from someone verbatim saying they were anti-LGBT

Attacking transwomen's rights is what makes things less safe for ciswomen. Any ciswoman that doesn't perfectly look like someone's idea of what a "real" woman looks like is open to attack and harassment for being suspected of being trans.

Downvoting makes me think you don't give two shits about keeping women and girls safe. You just want to hate on transwomen.

It's like people that are supposedly anti-abortion that also don't want any of the programs that provably prevent the demand for abortions in the first place.

It's a "myth" I've seen play out in front of me and so have other people. Pretending it's a myth is at best ill informed.

Also I didn't say you did. I said attacking them makes women and girls less safe. Forcing girls to drop their pants for perverted adults that insist on knowing what's in her underwear before she can run track and field is fucked up.

It's what's being done in the name of protecting women and girls.

"Their" safety concerns that see that happening are being expressed by bigots on their behalf. Which was my whole point. But you're trying to have it both ways in that we need to bar trans women from those "protective spaces" while also trying to somehow protect the women and girls being stripped of protection in those very spaces by accusing them of being trans.

What I'm not doing is I'm not taking bigots "Safety concerns" seriously when I know it's disingenuous bullshit. Bigots want to sexually and/or physically assault my cis het daughter in the name of making sure she's really a woman when she uses the bathroom she's been using since she was born.

I'm on the side of actually protecting women. Not paying lip service to their protection while helping push an environment that sees their safety stripped away.

I'm campaigning against male violence and bigotry. You're giving them cover to enact more violence and bigotry.

why on earth do you keep writing it like that? multiple people have corrected you already that it's trans women not transwomen and yet you ignore it. funny when that's exactly what transphobes do but you insist you aren't one and yet using all the same language 🤔 lot to ponder here

it's been an issue for many years now. auto correct should be fixing it for you the way it did for me when I wrote it the way you did aka incorrectly. I criticize you for it as if it's intentional because it seems very intentional. one user responded to you by quoting what you wrote and correcting it and you proceed to continue to use it incorrectly, what else are people meant to think except that you're using it that way on purpose?

well yeah that's how that works, you use a phrase that's transphobic, people mention it, then you use another, people mention it, etc. we can't know what you'll say before you say it, that's not how humans work. the list as it is isn't arbitrary, it's been static for a very long time. you're just hitting every single one like it's a bingo card or something.

"funny how the list of things that qualify random people as transphobes keeps getting longer and longer with more and more arbitrary things added" funny how bigots say the exact same shit about other forms of prejudice (misogyny, racism, queerphobia, ableism etc), it's almost as if they can't understand that bigotry isn't just direct violence
