    Conservatives don’t want you to exist. All other arguments they put forward are just soft-pedaling to that end goal.

    Bro is more masculine looking than me by half, handsome to boot, and has very piercing eyes. Maybe they don’t want him in the men’s room because they will feel inferior or sexually confused (again).

        He never wanted to be.

        Which just makes it so much better. I hope OOP has a long, happy life as the man they were meant to be.

      sexually confused (again)

      When half-conscious homosexual stirrings clash with the knowledge that he’s a trans man, ho boy

    I love the sentiment - but does anyone know if it’s real? Or who the original poster is? @ickplant posts a lot of… borrowed content… I mean it’s great content - but I sure don’t trust the veracity. Fact checking and due credit matters - even on ‘feel good’ stuff.

    That’s not at all weird. First off, you are assuming that their arguments are in good faith. I’ll give you a way to always know when their arguments are in bad faith: They’re conservatives. It’s the only arguments they have. Second, they want you in the women’s bathrooms and locker rooms so that they can gang up and kick your ass because you are clearly a man. That’s the whole reason.

      Or to hide away at home so that they don’t have to explain to their children that sometimes other people do stuff that isn’t your business.

        Nah the kids are strictly an excuse of convenience. So much of conservative antipathy toward gay, queer, trans, etc people amounts to ‘get back in the closet so that I can forget that people who are different than me exist.’ They are willing to heap a lot of hate, discrimination, etc upon other people just so they don’t have to be a little uncomfortable occasionally. Pretty much any time someone drops a ‘Won’t someone please think of the children?!’ what they mean is ‘I hate this but I can frame it as being about protecting children so I don’t look like a hateful bastard.’

        Well it might also make the women inside feel uncomfortable, which is a bonus. Now more people are uncomfortable about the issue, so they can further drive wedges.
