Alert the TRAs! Transphobia against transwomen!

The tweet:
Straight men: would you date a trans person (m to f) if they’re hotter than regular women

The responses are a bunch of straight 'cis' men displaying obvious transphobia. I wonder if the TRAs will tell them to DIAF, or threat to rape them? Given lesbians are ordered to 'love the ladystick', or suffer the consequences, I am very curious to see what consequences befall straight men.

Answers on a postcard.

I read that 'mic' report before. This is just so ....

"Cis gay culture is so phallocentric, everybody's expecting a penis," Jack said. "And, you know, some of us don't have that."

WTF? What else would they expect? No, some of us don't have that 'BECAUSE WE'RE WOMEN'.

From the twitter thread. 'Gender alchemists'. Brilliant!

Flooer: thank you very much for taking the trouble to do that. I definitely get the gist!

Which is why I feel sorry for the homosexual young people who are encouraged to transition in the expectation that they will find themselves happy in their modified body and then able to get the partner of their dreams. What they'll be doing is removing a very large part of their potential dating pool.

Yes. We have the middle aged autogynephiles who are bitter about not getting laid, who encourage young gay people to modify themselves so that they end up in the same situation. It's quite sad for the young uns.

Its not surprising that straight men see relationships with male people as gay relationships. Nor is it surprising that TRAs leave them alone, and its only lesbians who reject male people that are the problem. I highly suspect that ask gay men is they would shag a transman, the answers would be the same too.

I did, just for one foolish moment, consider verifying on google that the stories about some men and hoovers are correct BeyondSceptical. Sense prevailed though and I'm leaving that well alone.

Don't use hoovers in this way. Some hoovers have spinning blades in the nozel attachment to help uptake.

I suspect most of the men chanting on Twitter that Transwomen are women, are bisexual men who struggle to admit it.

Why? This is exactly the set of answers you'd get from any group of straight men so what reason is there to suppose that this group of men are not?

The responses are a bunch of straight 'cis' men displaying obvious transphobia.

None of the ones I saw are transphobic. Some a mildly homophobic. The vast majority are just "no", "nope" and "nah."

Not sure if you were writing tongue-in-cheek or you meant it.

Okay so I guess you cant upload in super detail on MN! Guess multiple screen shots would better! I tried though! And you can get general idea just from the Gifs anyway!

Floeer · 06/06/2018 14:24

Maybe this might work a bit better?

Thank you very much. Flower - that would have been incredibly impressive. !

Floeer · 06/06/2018 14:19

which would be telling anyway because comments wont reflect it!

Opheliah · 06/06/2018 14:18

Knowing Twitter though, the TRAs will get motivated and start piling on to click more "yes" votes.

Opheliah · 06/06/2018 14:17

I've only screenshotted the poll results

Alert the TRAs! Transphobia against transwomen!
Floeer · 06/06/2018 14:16

oh pants that didn't work at all!!

Floeer · 06/06/2018 14:15

Pratchet here you go. I hope how I've screenshotted a lot of the thread doesn't make it too long of an image.

Someone should ask Wee Owen if he would date a transman who was hotter than a man. Oh, wait. They did and Wee Owen threw his toys out of his pram.

Pratchet · 06/06/2018 13:46

Is anyone screenshotting (beg)

Pratchet · 06/06/2018 13:45

Blimey. Hypocrites.

SuitedandBooted · 06/06/2018 13:22

Be a useful tweet to link to though in future next time TAs start having a go at "transphobic" lesbians or a good tweet to link to next time TAs claim most people see TIMs as women

Quite - bookmarked it.
Though I wouldn't be surprised if it gets removed fromTwittter. Can't have reality creeping in.

ChickenMe · 06/06/2018 13:19

If I ever get a twitter account I shall make it sound like I'm a man and I'll be able to speak freely it seems

Where is Owen Jones @OwenJones84 and his dog whistle, why is he not condemning these men as he does women?
