stepping in because this whole chain past the parent comment seems to be arguing completely past each other and i think i'm seeing where those wires are crossed here.
as i understand it, the parent comment here is specifically talking about legislating transphobia, but most of the comments arguing against it seem to be talking about handling social transphobia. these are not the same thing and should probably be handled differently and distinguished. for example: in the former case, wanting the case for trans rights to be "respectable" and "presentable" seems more understandable because you need a broad coalition to pass legislative issues most of the time. in the latter case "respectability" and "presentability" are asking for people to compromise who they are interpersonally to bargain with people who mostly want them dead, which i think we can generally agree is unreasonable.
