    I got called a bigot by 7 or 8 hexadytes for suggesting that when people finish transitioning they’re no longer trans. Cuz they’re done.

    HB is toxic, if anyone is even on the fence about trans rights and they talk to those people? I bet, if any of them were actually aware of HB, conservatives would fucking LOVE that community. “Look at all these unstable freaks! This is the trans agenda!” or whatever other dogshit they might spew about trans people.

      Honestly, yours its a weird take. it is based as if being trans is something to be cured and overcome instead of something that defines you, even after transitioning. also throwing another trans people under the bus is not as good as a strategy as you think.

        Why does being trans define you?

        If your entire goal is to become what you feel you’re meant to be, then why would being trans be anything other than a temporary state?

        Lol, no you just assumed all of that and have no causal reasoning for it. Just like all the other hexbear users!

        also throwing another trans people under the bus is not as good as a strategy as you think

        What are you even fucking saying? How can you be so braindead to treat acceptance as some underhanded “trans people are mentally ill” message, and then make the other MASSIVE leap to me throwing trans people under the bus? Actually, do you even know what that phrase means? Because you used it incorrectly.
