Watching cis people try and talk about trans people can be amusing
Thank you those were both great stories, you have successfully related to me and alleviated my concerns.
I know they tried/meant well it just was funnyIt's very similar to people of colour, yeah most of the time racists aren't openly racist when other white people are around that are normal. It's when it's just you and a racist, that's when the wild shit comes out. And also, it's underappreciated by the hegemonic culture - but racism, homophobia, transphobia can be just so fantastically weird, yeah it can be scary and rude and deadly. But sometimes, you hear the weirdest out of pocket shit and then think back on it the way home and realize "wait they were being transphobic, the fuck???"
Also the amount of people lacking in self awareness to just come out with some random vitriolic comment.
Or you get people who are usually normal then just casually drop some racist etc comment without any self reflection whatsoever
I don't have any friends but if someone did this I'd just not associate with them
We must treat the cis with kidgloves 'cause they're dweebs
But they always seem so happy walking their dog!
Yea they really are.
Yeah it's like most interactions are fine and what not but like bad things do happen and people, when anonymous, are very judgy about us so it just messes with me. Cis people don't really get this at all because they don't suffer the same kind of discrimination as we do, well some queer people kinda do
The judginess messes with me too, especially since I live with some people who don't understand.
