Trans people are a minority. Despite the public media attention currently, there just are not that many trans people.
The minority status, as in literally not many people existing as in other groups, means trans people automatically feel more isolated, even in welcoming communities, because there are not many other trans people.
Losing a large community where it is easy to connect, relate, and catch up with other people like you is awful. Just look at how many of us are here from reddit, and imagine if it were the 80s and all our parents were still anrgy at us for “Being on that %@#$ computer again! It’s just a fad anyway!” Now think of that, but it’s not just a hobby or a career path, it’s who you are.
i don’t know whether you’re a reactionary, you’re trolling for attention, or you’re incapable of reading the room, but it doesn’t really matter either way. since this is at least the third obviously offensive, insensitive, or just plain rude thing you’ve said today that’s been reported i think it’s pretty obvious this is not the instance for you. i wish you luck in finding a space you vibe more with.
What? There may be a lot of trans-friendly spaces online, but there are, if anything, even more spaces that are actively hostile to trans people, and it’s not always easy to tell which is which. And even safe spaces for trans people tend to get raided regularly.
In the million bajillion other trans spaces? Trans folk are some of the most protected identities online, you’ll be fine.
Your reply is disingenuous at best here.
