!!PLEASE READ!!

seeing someone claim "attack helicopter" is a gender,especially by someone you respected is harmful for trans and enby people.its transphobic and was used as a way for transphobes to make fun of enby people(1/4)

bc there are more than 2 genders. transphobes believe they made it all up that there are more than 2 genders when its not at all! these transphobes would say they identify as an attack helicopter, or any other inanimate object to poke fun at enby people. trans people are (2/4)

still affected by this because we are often associated with enby people, since a handful of us transition to make ourselves more comfortable in our bodies. (remember: not all trans and enby people transition tho! its not "required" so this is why i said handful.) so this is (3/4)

something that affects both trans and enby people in a negative light. poki, if you manage to see this, please don't claim attack helicopter is a gender bc it is harmful for us trans and enby people. this is my approach at trying to educate people on the situation.
