I just got this answer from a woman on a lesbian dating website, after she contacted me based on my profile photo, obviously without having read the text on my profile that clearly states that I'm trans. After I asked her if my trans identity was a problem, "oh sorry, I'm only interested in real women" was horribly painful to read.? You'd think people in the LGBT community would have more tact. I'd have been happy to accept if she'd simply said that she wasn't into pre-op transwomen but she didn't like penises, but to deliberately invalidate my identity felt terrible.
Women calls man a man - Dude doesn't get his precious identity validated and gets salty. The rest of the thread is a homophobic trainwreck where everyone is sooo opressed because they don't get dates and the lesbian community is full of terfs (I hope that's true).
Examples:
*Cis gays and cis lesbians have been on average the most transphobic people I've spoken to in my life.
*I don't think people realise what they're saying half the time. I constantly have to remind myself that your average person equates male with man, female with woman, and describes themselves as being "born a man/woman" despite this being impossible
*What do you mean by biologically male? Are you referring to chromosomes, sex organs, hormones, something else? Is our brain and our internal sense of our own gender somehow not biological? "Biologically male" is poorly defined, problematic, and I think not really much better than "real man". I think throwthepearlaway is spot on. What they're really after is someone who is cisgender.
*Don't expect too much from the lesbian community, it's crawling with TERFs.
(LMAO awesome :3)
