I have a buddy who is single and went into a Joe Rogan spiral. Apparently his new biggest fear is talking to a woman who happened to have been born a man.

When I asked him why? He made up a hypothetical situation of them breaking into his house?

It literally only just now clicked that the guy who I was friends with before I transitioned who immediately flipped on me afterward has always been a big Joe Rogan fan. I don't know why that took so long.

Anyway, thanks Will Ferrell.

These guys are telling on themselves. "She used to be a man, so she'll do [horrible thing]."

So you do [horrible thing] to your partners??

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 16 points 3 hours ago

That was my response! I said, "So in a relationship, that's what you do?"

And he got kinda mad and changed the subject.

Oh god could you imagine how horrible it would be if a transwoman broke into your house

They’d just eat all my snacks and download F:NV

Hey, I don't want to go over the data cap on my "unlimited" internet

[–] scops@reddthat.com 27 points 7 hours ago

So his concern is having a potential partner that he couldn't physically outmatch? Can't think of why a guy like that might be single

Insanity, especially considering trans people are more likely to be victims than perpetrators.

Yeah but if he keeps listening to those shows then they imagine it's happening all the time.
