Hi, I have a transmasc boyfriend and am part of the LGBTQ+ alliance. However I started my first year of college and encountered uneducated men who just did not believe that trans people had their rights under attack. One of my friends even told my trans woman friend that she had more rights than him. How or what can you do to help others become educated without “debating trans existence” or starting an argument? Thank you.

    You could try dropping the condescending tone. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn’t mean he is uneducated.

    I would also recommend being polite and using the charity principle. You generally won’t change someone’s mind by berating him.
