An intrusive thought is an unwelcome, involuntary thought, image, or unpleasant idea that may become an obsession, is upsetting or distressing, and can feel difficult to manage or eliminate.
Why did you give the definition of an intrusive thought? This doesn’t feel like a shitpost.
“trans woman” not “transwoman”. Trans is an adjective, like tall or short (it’s not “tallwoman”). “Transwoman” is a slur used by fascists to avoid acknowledging that trans women are women.
My girlfriend told me she prefers “transwoman” because it looks neater that way. Neither she nor I heard it was a slur.
Bigots just call them men. They don’t have the mental capacity for grammar.
It depends on whether they’re pretending not to be bigots (or are unaware that they’re bigoted). It’s easier to mask transphobia as common sense if you use nearly the right terminology.
That’s fair. I’m sure there are nefarious “centrist” type bigots who are trying to seem sensible in their hate. It’s just really hard to notice them with all the screaming psychopath type bigots.
I’m in the UK, where the majority position seems to be I accept that trans people exist, and will be polite enough to use their preferred name and pronouns, but they should be banned from sport and toilets and domestic abuse shelters and all their legal rights should be based solely off their DNA and intersex people don’t exist, and also children shouldn’t hear about any of this because every person who claimed to be trans before they were an adult changed their mind and regretted any treatment they got, and all of this is science-backed common sense and anything else is extremism, with the self-aware bigots being the second largest group.
Oh. So they’re bigots who are too cowardly to be up front about it. That’s sad.
Some things are worth dying for.
1999 was a long time ago.
Society has definitely improved a lot as far as queer acceptance goes.
Its certainly gotten better but theres still a significant population that wants to drag us back to that time and worse.
