Oh geez it was you who posted that. Now I understand what you meant, but your comment came across as a 4channer troll arguing in bad faith. People are really sensitive about that stuff rn because politicians are literally pushing to have them executed for existing in public.
lol no they aren't.
They... really are, Otome. If you pay attention to what's going on in Florida, where they're trying to make peeing in a bathroom that a child happens to walk into a sex crime against a child, and sex crimes punishable by death by an 8 person majority of the jury.
We might disagree on the ontology of gender variance, and we can have that debate, but they want everyone who doesn't fit in their black and white, either or boxes, and that includes you as surely as it do me.
Saying, "I'm not transgender, I'm transsexual!" will not save you. Nor will Blaire White's pick-me videos. There is no way to appease them beyond being cishet all your days, and you aren't. I wish that it was safe for you to go on believing that, but it's not, and I really don't want you to be hurt.
Words mean nothing to fascists, they want you dead regardless if you're not considered to be one of them. Anyone who is "different" or an "other" is a target for those fucks.
