I’m afraid of them because they are all so beautiful and hot and I wanna hold their hands
Same
I’m afraid of their power. The onion told me some can be in every bathroom everywhere all at once. I totally support them in that, but it’s also scary because what if I have to use the bathroom really bad!!
Thankfully, most trans people aren’t even at the breaking laws of physics level yet. Bad news though, once a trans person reaches space-time bending levels of transness, they become completely invincible.
The gap between doublejumping and wavedashing is already quite large, reaching spacetime bending is quite out of most of our reach
Maybe they’ll evolve to achieve the powers faster, like megafauna that grow faster to become basically immune to predators.
I hear they attract lions :(
Don’t worry, I have this rock that repels
tigerslions.
Women fear me. Fish fear me. Men turn their eyes away from me as I walk. No beast dare make a sound in my presence. I am alone on this barren earth.
Jk the men aren’t that polite, they just stand there and stare at me. The rest is true tho
But you’re so pretty and/or handsome, how can they not?
Okay who of you jumpscared this little guy?
tehee
How are you afraid of Trans folk?
Simply present fearlessness, and your life will be better. Roll unafraid in every situation and be set free.
People fear what they don’t understand or are not used to. I have had a number of acquaintances and even a few friends that are. I support them. Do I understand it, hell no. Does it make me a bit uneasy, yes. But I’m a bit ASD so all social interaction tends to do that. That’s a me problem and I don’t take it out on others.
A few years back a known guy from a game I play said something similar on twitter. Though he said it was specifically because he has had only bad experiences with transfolk so as a result he’s now literally scared of them/instantly gets a bad feeling interacting with a transperson.
Sooo many people cancelled him for it but I never saw the issue, you don’t control your fears and if anything it’s just confusing that we use the suffix -phobia for bigotry but in some cases it’s a literal phobia. If you interact only a few times with members of a small group and it’s always negative you’re almost guaranteed to end up with that reaction, and no one but the person themself can know how bad the fear is.
In theory someone could agree that trans women are women and trans men are men, but at the same time be against the idea of transitioning. Not sure why, but it’s not impossible.
I guess it’s the same as someone not believing that other races are inferior or otherwise different in any way other than appearance and still be racist.
Some doctors are transmedicalist and deathly afraid to help trans people transition in case they aren’t trans enough™ so that is indeed a thing.
i mean, there are many transphobic opinions one may have which aren’t in conflict with “trans people are the gender they say they are”
it’s often what comes after the dreaded BUT
examples of transphobia (and enbyphobia) where this applies
- trans women are women BUT they shouldn’t be allowed in female shelters if they get abused
- trans men are men BUT kids shouldn’t be able to transition, they should wait until they’re 18
- nonbinary people are nonbinary BUT we shouldn’t change language to reflect them since they are so marginal in society
imo opinions like these are even worse than blatant bigotry, cause the people who say them often present themselves as safe and “allies”, so they’re much more pervasive and harder to ignore
I must make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish brothers. First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.
“how can i be racist if i hate ALL of them EQUALLY?”

They’re not scary, they’re awesome. At least I don’t find them scary. Maybe some people might be intimidated, but once you get to know some trans people that’ll go away.
I suppose I’ll just have to get to know myself
