Many people have never met a trans person, they've never shook our hand, spoken to us, nothing. Too many people think of trans women as a man in a dress with tits invading womens rooms, trying to justify their perversion like MAPS do.
Pick your biggest insecurity and imagine you were born with it outright and there's not much you can do to change it after you've grown past 12. That's what its like. Imagine peeing constantly because of the remedy to this problem but not being able to use public bathrooms. Imagine being too weak to fight the angry men that attack you.
The fact that many people have never met a trans person (that they know of, right?) is a big part of why they make such a great bogeyman for conservatives.
Working to correct that should probably involve exposing those people to a larger variety of other humans. Unforunately I think they already “know” that humanity, much like education, the media, and the internet, has a known liberal bias and cannot be trusted.
Growing up in the 90s, if was gays causing AIDs.
My parents growing up in the 60s, it was Blacks ruining the American dream.
If we really want to go granular, every decade is some new BS.
