So there I was thinking about posting on r/bisexual and then I saw the comments on the sub: “How does being a transphobic cishet white guy with a vagina feel?” What? There were many transphobic comments like this? Well of course there were, they were the kind that just think that I have to do whatever I want to be if I don't like the genitals of a girl, so why are you calling me a bigot and not even bothering to check my profile? I'm sorry, I'm not a transphobe, I'm just being a reasonable human. But I just cannot stand being told “your genitals are so hot, you're not even allowed to be mad about it because of what I said” I'm not transphobic but I just can't stand being told “your genitals are so hot” just because they think that I have to be happy about my genitalia? Why are you asking for more than me just telling you that your genitals are so hot and I am willing to date your genitals because I think that you are a valid man because I am just a trans person, so why don't you get my permission to be happy about it? Also I'm not going to say that my vagina is fake and not a fake penis because I said it that way, I am not saying that it has no sexual characteristics (which it does have), I just don't agree with some of the things you have said in this post because it doesn't fit into my own definition of being a woman and a woman has no sexual characteristics.

        It’s a sad moment to me. The amount of transphobia we have in our society, even in our own community, is almost like we don’t have anything.

      The trans community is interesting, yes, but you shouldn’t beat yourself up over this one sentence paragraph. I’m sure some people here are gonna be nice and be happy for you, I’m sure some people won’t be. But yeah, if I were to post a link to an article about the trans community, I’d get a lot of hate from trans-inclusive groups and it would get back to me in a really bad way. I think it’s more important to point out that there are many interesting aspects of the trans community, and that’s a good place for that. But don’t beat yourself up over this one paragraph.

        Yeah, it’s a good place to say this is a really bad place. I think it’s just a big problem for the community as a whole, and I think we need to start talking about it more.
