The difference being, If I was assigned "male" at birth and society categorized me as "boy/man" and treats me as boy/man but I don't "feel" boy/man and would like to be treated as girl/woman, what will that society do?
Somebody talking about a near death experience with God occasionally, probably won't get them lynched, denied housing, proper and dignified medical treatment, the ability to have a romantic relationship, etc.
A society deciding that its weird or uncomfortable to know that a hetero cis gender person marries a person who happens to be transgender, that's not being uncomfortable with "fickleness" that's drifting into bigotry territory.
I also want to push back against this because the data in pretty much every country in the world will prove that the men who want to sexually harass anyone do not go through a charade of cartoonish proportions just to be able to do it- they just do it. A man will not think about disguises so ingenious and clever that no one would be able to tell he's not a woman just so he can go into the women's bathroom- he just goes into the women's bathroom. I don't know where this notion comes from but it's incorrect and, like many things, likely just plays to cisgender heterosexual insecurities.
wow... that was a "yikes!" comment from kredditacc.
