    I was called a bigot by 7 or 8 different people because I dared to suggest that when someone finishes transitioning, they are no longer trans.

    They are a man or woman, or whatever else they identify as.

    That made me a bigot.

    They don’t help stomp out anything, they turn people against trans people. They literally give conservatives ammunition.

      I believe trans refers to gender assigned at birth, so unless someone detransitions or time travels to change their birth gender I don’t think fully transitioning can make you not trans.

        Trans people continuing to call themselves trans after transitioning is an entirely different topic.

        My point is that I accept trans people.

        Someone wanting to call themselves trans after transitioning, in no way, justifies calling me a bigot. That is the most braindead way to try and influence change in the world.
