I am not very close to many trans people so most of my approach just comes from wanting to be able to be ‘buddies’ strictly plutonic friends with people of any gender.
I found for CIS people that homie was welcoming and friendly and more likely to get thrown around by everyone as its a little silly
I can appreciate the importance of recognizing someone’s gender especially if they are experiencing dysmorphia and I appreciate you pointing out that importance
Lmao it’s platonic. Plutonic sounds like you’re radioactive or something.
Also, dysmorphia is when something is “morphed” differently and it is dis-tressing, a la shape or physical attributes. Like seeing yourself as overweight when you’re not, or obsessing over your nose being too big or too small. In usually unhealthy, obsessive, and inaccurate ways. Think: anorexia.
Dysphoria is the opposite of euphoria. It’s very different. When somebody has gender dysphoria, it’s a fundamental opposite-of-euphoria about ones gender. Trans women do not want to be men (because they’re women), trans men do not want to be women (because they’re men), and enbies don’t want to be whatever it is they don’t want to be (because they are actually chaos and you should definitely go on that journey with them, I guarantee it’ll be interesting .).
All LGBT and queerness and liberalism is doing is trying to make the world suck less for people who are actually different. It’s not some weird, alternative lifestyle crazy people. It’s just that some people didn’t fit into the stupid little boxes enough (trust me, nobody fully fits into them) that they said “fuck you and your little boxes, this is stupid and I’ve had enough. Why do we even have these stupid little boxes anyway?” And proceeded to examine why, and what they found was a deeper and deeper and deeper rabbit hole of bullshit that infected everybody’s brains and was hurting EVERYBODY needlessly and only served the billionaires and the string pullers of society at the top and was in various forms around the world, perpetuated by almost all religions and, while having various times in history where it was seen and less an issue, keeps having resurgences because it is so fundamental dismantling of so many tools of control that the billionaires fear.
It’s like, seeing through all of it (the bullshit) leads to asking too many questions about our existence and fundamental social structures, which leads to loss of power for the billionaires over generations.
Haha that was a lot.
Thank you for that perspective.

Why DO they fear trans women so much?
