Hey, as a trans man, please don’t spread this “gotcha.” Transphobes KNOW we exist. We also face violence if we use the women’s restroom. We don’t get a “pass” for being afab. It isn’t only trans femmes who have to avoid using public restrooms for their own safety.
I like that you say that like it's an unintended consequence and not the exact purpose.
They WANT trans people shit scared.
They don't even care about “biological women” or “females” or whatever their new words are, they care about oppression of trans people, and trans men are a very acceptable sacrifice to them.
We have been saying this all along. Police are following cis women and harassing them in bathrooms and now men can just walk into a bathroom. What these idiots don’t understand is that a bathroom for a Trans person is a terrifying place. We are more likely to get assaulted or discriminated against. We just want to go in use the bathroom and get the hell out without making a scene. People need to place themselves in the shoes of others just once and see what it is like to live there life
Another point that needs to be made is that the transphobia will not stop even when there’s no more trans people in public life. They will continue to keep cracking down and invading people’s privacy while reinforcing strict gender norms on people. If you value your freedom, if you value your human rights, you must defend the rights of trans people!
