a thread: i am sick and fucking TIRED of cis straight people telling me i shouldnt be afraid of being hatecrimed. whenever i leave my house, even if its just to get the mail, i am TERRIFIED that someone is going to hurt me. and im getting a job in the summer that might deal with
customer service. if someone misgenders me and i correct them, and they were a bigot? i would most likely be spit on and called a tranny. i am not fucking exaggerating. do you know how many times i have tried to express that im scared of being hatecrimed yet everyone tells me
“its just what happens, you cant control it, it wont happen, if they ask what you are then say ‘im me!’” its not that fucking easy. i could tell some random ass person on the street that im trans and they could literally murder me. especially where i live. you as a white cishet
dont get to tell ME, a trans gay person, what is easy and what is not when it comes to bigotry. you cannot tell me why i shouldnt be terrified for my life every time i leave my home. you cannot JUSTIFY transphobia in any way. so if youre cis, listen to your trans friends and
family. dont downplay their concerns and experiences. maybe even help them get protection from physical assault.
also, trans people are more than a porn category to wank you .4 cm dick to.
END OF THREAD
also a psa. just because im trans and gay doesnt mean i dont have the privilege of being white. you can pass as your preffered presenting sex but you cant pass as a white person unless you are very very lightskinned. before bigots see trans, before they see gay, before anything
to so with sexuality or gender preferences, they see your skin color. i am so lucky to be a white person. i dont think white people understand that. the worst fucking thing ever is that black trans women are the most oppressed community in america. do trans people, specifically
trans women of color, justice.
