If your position is "I would never sleep with a trans person" you're just transphobic. I usually respond with "but what if they pass and are post op?" and the answer is almost always still no, because the problem isn't some specific sexual preference, the problem is they still view you as your AGAB.

I am being harrased by the women lobby

I'm a woman so I was never in a situation like this. I have more than few trans friends, including my neaphew god-father (that used to be his god-mother) and the problem with this meme is that the 👍is never the answer the comunity gives. They are indeed always very angry and are usually the first ones to say "transphobic". As I told my friend I think that we should use the word Transphobic with more care since there are a lot of really hateful people in the world that do indeed want to hurt you guys,.

The people this meme is about are also women.

But they do have problems like this and this js what I'm talking about. The fact that you jumped head first to the conclusion that I think they are not women is the problem. Give people the benefit of the doubt

"I am a woman so I haven't been in the situation that these women have been in" doesn't make sense. Ypu clearly don't think they are women. Also, you are not the victim here.

You have 99 problems but I'm not one. Friendly tip: maybe look into some therapy

If someone just comes up to someone out of the blue and says they won't have sex with you there's nothing wrong with being angry or telling them to fuck off... I'd do the same if someone came up to me and said that and I'm not trans. The situation in the comic is not about someone's preferences, it's about people who constantly bring up their preference out of the blue for no reason other than to use it as a weapon. You've never experienced that problem, neat, good for you. A lot of trans people do.

I've heard of people who have complained about trans people showing up in their dating feed, mixed in with the cis population, being labelled as "transphobes" and harassed, but good to know that we've overcome that.

Those are being transphobic, yes

But eh, one act does not define a person
