I've met a few. Usually either great comrades or on their way, or the most vile truscum you'll encounter.

meeting a trans person that has supportive parents is like meeting an alien for me
Most of my coworkers are trans, and all of them have difficulty relationships with their families and we talk about it a lot at work.
Meanwhile I'm here like
and it almost feels like I'm doing something wrong.

Still not rich tho.
another supportive parents bingo winner!

[CW: Transmed Nonsense]
It's funny how these more privileged people call enbies like me "functionally cis" and say we don't understand all the hardship they've gone through when I had to lose so much family over me being trans and literally deal with the shitty legal and medical consequences of being a trans person in Florida as well as literal, explicit discrimination from strangers on the basis of me having an androgynous gender presentation. Make it make sense.
Apparently, to these bozos, "functionally cis" is:
- Taking estrogen and seeking out surgeries
- Experiencing harsh transphobia that leaves you without a family
- Identifying as trans and relating to various common trans experiences
- Being literally diagnosed with gender dysphoria and feeling the crushing weight of it constantly.
And, no, just to be clear, you obviously do not need any of that to be trans. It's just bizarre how these are the things that transmeds will point at and say "enbies don't go through this stuff, so they're not trutrans!" when I literally go through it too damn frequently for my own comfort. Imagine having all this in common with me, but because I don't identify with a binary gender role and I favor an androgynous gender presentation, you will use that as an opportunity to hate me instead of expressing solidarity. This is insanely fucking ironic for a trans person to do!
Also, why is it that transmeds have two conflicting views of enbies:
- They're upset with enbies who don't medically transition because they make "real trans people look like a joke."
- They're upset with enbies who do medically transition because they're "taking away resources from real trans people who actually need it!"
What a deeply unserious and irrational group of people.

:sicko-wistful:
i get weird vibes from so many of the trans influencers that get traction, like there are a few who are good but idk
also maybe this is just me being old or something, but along those lines there's something about the 'doll' stuff that's gotten popular that gives me the ick idk
Not sure what you mean about the doll stuff? I only know that as a slightly-older term for trans women
it's a slightly older term that's coming back around with the younger generation on TikTok, and idk personally the implications of being 'plastic', of being fake or being a toy or just generally being a term that is slightly dehumanising is what's getting me
like, i'm not about to start pulling people up about it or anything, it's on-going discourse and i can't always expect everything to be stuff im comfortable with but it really is just one of those older terms that I think should've stayed old
