Making fun of how someone looks invariably targets other people. Like why do it all?

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I wasn't advocating for it. I just wonder where it crosses over to transphobia if the target is trans.

My point is it doesn't really matter, there is already sufficient reason to not do it at all. But I think it's safe to say joking about anything in her appearance is transphobic since her transness is inextricably tied to it, and more often than not transness is reduced to how someone presents themselves.

I'm just wondering how it would work here. One perspective I was thinking about was what you mentioned, how there's no way to joke about her appearance without it being transphobic
