I think it's a joke

The setup makes us assume no nudes are being exchanged.

We expect that the transphobe is warning the writer that one of the people receiving nudes is trans. We then expect the reveal to be that the write is trans or something along those lines. It was difficult for me to follow too.

The punchline is that nudes were indeed being exchanged. The transphobe was just a subversion.

Oh, sorry - it was hard for me to follow your comment as well, but here's my understanding:

We read about OP sharing nudes with a friend.

TERF warns OP that they are sharing nudes not with a fellow woman, but with a man (TERF is assuming friend was a trans woman, assumes OP is a cis woman).

We expect OP to reveal they are actually a trans woman, but instead we learn OP and his friend are cis men.

Does this seem right?

Sorry, these moments make me feel like I must be autistic or something, lol
