I know I'll get flamed for voicing my opinion on this, but I don't care.
I just don't understand why there is so much hatred for trans people on here.
Yes, some trans activists are extremists and no I don't agree with them, but should all other trans people suffer because of them?
I get that there are issues that need to be addressed, as highlighted by recent items in the news and recent threads (which prison should trans people be sent to, can a MTW be a girl guide leader and various others). I don't have a solution for these, but I feel that as a society we should work together to make it work, rather than just spout hatred and insults.
It is especially disappointing as there are a lot of people in the trans community suffering mental health issues, often as the result of how they are being treated, and MN is usually a safe haven for people with MH issues.
I used to enjoy reading the Feminism chat (or most of it anyway), now almost every thread on there is transphobic
Most of us here are women, a lot of us are from ethnic minorities, or have a disability, a lot of us have been discriminated against, we know what it feels like so why do it to others??

To be baffled by and disappointed with the amount of transphobia on MN?
