It doesn’t seem like you want to understand others. Instead, you want them to conform to your understanding. That doesn’t seem fair. Once again, not every trans person wants to transition. You don’t need to be sexually attracted to everyone, but respecting their autonomy and personhood would be cool.


Not saying that I should be sexually attracted to everyone. I like women but when it comes to what woman I want, I want a biological woman who isn't trans.

That’s mildly interesting but doesn’t seem particularly relevant to the current discussion. A person’s identity is about them, not about what turns someone else on.


Yeah.

Then how can I tell who is a woman without biological aspects?
So, this isn't actually about making things better for trans people at all, this is about making you more comfortable. Thanks for letting that slip out, it makes it much easier to understand your real motives.
His posts sometimes read like a 1960s Conservative's screed against men with long hair.

"How am I gonna tell if I'm looking at a boy or a girl with all that long hair?" -- spoken by my junior high-school principal, whose school dress code also prohibited trousers for girls, skirts above the knee, boys' hair not touching the collar, girls' hair not above the collar, and neither dungarees nor sneakers to be worn in class (except gym class).

This is the same teacher who pushed me against the wall and threatened to call the cops on me because I had only said "Good morning" (with a smile) to his daughter.

His behavior was considered normal for the time (late 1960s).

Yeah this thread is transphobia dressed up as superficially pro-trans. Transphobia is against WrongPlanet rules. Ergo, locked.
