[Serious] That Trans Thread

[The Grand Nudger]

I'm entirely certain that I've been in the presence of trans women and not known it - or known who. I just find it amazing that there are people who, upon suddenly realizing as much, would then seek to assuage their throbbing insecurities with the idea that the other person just tried to rape them by deception.

I mean...whats the play here? There are a bunch of trans women slinging big dick trolling bars for straight boys to cornhole? What the fuck?

Are you suggesting that the abuse @Jehanne suffers isn’t because she’s trans? It was her personal story after all. I don’t know how the people in these videos are relevant to Jehenne’s experience as described in this thread. Do you have the courage to say that to her directly, rather than talk about her, right in front of her, like she doesn’t exist? That’s pretty disrespectful and dehumanizing. Is that the line of discussion you want to take in a thread with a ‘Serious’ tag? I’d think very hard about your next move if I were you.

No doubt can exist whatsoever that I suffer abuse due to my appearance, as there have been multiple times (have lost count) when I have been walking on public streets in the community where I live (Cedar Rapids, Iowa), and complete strangers come out of their homes to confront me as to, "What are you doing?" in their neighborhood.  I was at a business in a nearby city (Marion), and a customer associate told me, "I see you out walking".  I have also had the police called on me, but, thankfully, they just drive by; usually, such happens when I am traveling and stop in some small Iowa town to finish my daily step count in some new area.  I had a Linn County sheriff's deputy who spent a significant amount of time shadowing my whereabouts one day in one small town (Coggon) after some woman came storming out of her house at me, before turning around and going right back inside without uttering a single word.  I am not sure if he was there to protect me or he thought that I was going to do some petty theft, or whatever.  In any case, it was nice walk; I got to see some purple wildflowers.

But remember the cause of your harassment is that some people on Tik Tok didn't disclose their genitals

Because the bigoted subset are super onboard with people exposing their genitals on tik tok in order to satisfy their ethical duty not to rape by deception.

You betcha!

Fucking seriously? You don’t consider being followed by the cops just for walking in your own neighborhood, or, for that matter, being angrily confronted by perfect strangers as to why you’re walking in your own neighborhood, to be harassment? I am almost certain that if another black person talked about the same shit Jehanne talked about, word-for-word, you’d consider it a textbook example of the racist shit black people have to put up with. There’s no way you’re acting in good faith here.

He’s not interested. He might have to humanize her in his own mind if he did that, and that’s off the table as a possibility.

Not to mention she described being physically assaulted.
