To those Transvestigating Shen

https://youtube.com/shorts/ob1ZwUI-Zqk?si=PzgUkN9tOB8AGDJn

This has probably been done to death, but I feel like this video has a pretty good message in relation to what I've been seeing in some of this sub.

That being;

I don't think it's our place to care about whether or not Shen is cis, a repressing trans person, or some secret third option.

I'm sure those telling him to stop "repping" aren't doing it out of genuine malice. They probably just don't want someone to go through what they must have on their way to finding their true selves.

Yet my point still stands.

Whatever he is, it's HIS BUSINESS. Leave mothafuckas alone.

Why the fuck would anyone even care?

Because they think Shen is a traitor for making a comic about a GNC cis man instead of a trans woman, so they are trying to make him look like a hypocrite by claiming he is actually a trans woman himself.

There are other related reasons, but that's the current one.  There is a group of trans women who despise GNC men, especially cis men.

I almost wish I had the time and energy and mental illness required to give even one iota of a shit that. No one passes the purity tests these days.
