I have a buddy who is single and went into a Joe Rogan spiral. Apparently his new biggest fear is talking to a woman who happened to have been born a man.

When I asked him why? He made up a hypothetical situation of them breaking into his house?

    Oh god could you imagine how horrible it would be if a transwoman broke into your house

    They’d just eat all my snacks and download F:NV

    These guys are telling on themselves. "She used to be a man, so she'll do [horrible thing]."

    So you do [horrible thing] to your partners??

    Homophobia and transphobia, when you dig into them a bit, are often based in a fear that they'll be on the other end of toxic masculinity instead of the one they're used to.

    It literally only just now clicked that the guy who I was friends with before I transitioned who immediately flipped on me afterward has always been a big Joe Rogan fan. I don't know why that took so long.

    Anyway, thanks Will Ferrell.
