To address my tweets and replies from the last 24 hours: My behaviour towards a transfeminine person's transition was uneducated and based on my personal viewpoint as a TME (transmisogyny exempt) person, and I thank those who were willing to point out that I was being bigoted.
I apologize to the trans women and transfem followers of mine who I have directly alienated and hurt, for making unsolicited judgmental comments that weren’t my place to give, and to Sparxxx for invalidating her transition with my uneducated opinion.
No one owes me forgiveness for this. I understand that I hurt and betrayed people who respected me, and your anger is justified. Please know that I'm listening and open to criticisms given to me and am taking steps to privately process my harmful biases as a transmasc/TME man.
I have deleted the replies I made to Kaiju, who was more than civil with me last night regarding this and would like to personally apologize to her as well for doubling down when confronted instead of listening to her perspective.
Thank you all for being honest with your criticisms, I'm taking this to heart and will do better in the future. I will learn from my mistakes and work to understand how transmisogyny seeps into my perspective, and make conscious effort not to let it color my interactions again.
