  • The original post was an image with the text "Hey you, straight dude: are you attracted to women or to femininity?"

    I posted a response that said I like boobs & pussy, and then someone (who turned out to be ace, and just was curious) asked if I would date a trans man.

  • Ah, okay. Because behaw defederated they're not seeing anything from lemmy.world. They're also not sending anything to lemmy.world. But they are sending stuff to blahaj.zone, so you can read that stuff.

    I wonder if they're seeing my responses, from kbin, to your comments, from lemmy.world, on blahaj.zone.

  • but it’s weird so its gonna happen

    But it shouldn't happen.

    "This is how things are" is a terrible excuse for why we should allow them to be that way.

    Hopefully you're just being sarcastic tho

  • Let me just make sure I got this right

    Dee is on lemmy.world

    Zoop is on beehaw

    This thread is on lemmy.blahaj.zone

    So Dee and Zoop can see each other's comments since neither lemmy.world nor beehaw is defederated from blahaj.zone?

    It's like a border state or something

  • Most people seem to agree it wasn't transphobia, but here's the context: https://lemmy.world/post/1893561

    There was some transphobia that came crawling out like usually happens when a trans topic starts getting active, but they got shut down pretty quickly

  • I'm not particularly attracted to any gender; I have no gender preference. I am however exclusively attracted to female sex organs.

    The original thread asked "Hey, straight man, are you attracted to women or to femininity?" I didn't answer that question because I think the question was too vague. I think "straight" means you like female sexual characteristics. Pre-op trans man, post-op trans woman, cishet woman, they all qualify.

  • The issue with "labels" is when, every time you use a label, you end up having to explain what it means anyway. "Flexitarian" might be a good label amongst groups of people who commonly discuss vegetarian/vegan/other diets and understand the vocabulary, but it's confusing to a broader audience. Much like any jargon.

    If it's a broadly understood label, it makes sense. If it's a relatively niche one, it's counterproductive.

  • Thread was nuked, here's my response

    The full comment, not just one cherry picked sentence

    I hate to say it, but of the 7 trans women I've known, 6 have been like this. Everyone is the enemy, giant chip on the shoulder.

    I mean, I get it. I grew up very poor, and for a long time any time I saw a rich person I wanted to deck them. Even if they did nothing wrong personally. Because my life was hell and they didn't have to go through it, and they're passively contributing to the system that made my life hell. So I hated them.

    So yeah, I think trans people are just people, reacting to a hateful and cruel society in the way that any person would.

    It is difficult to stay friends with someone like that. A lot of trauma. And collateral damage. I know, I lost friends over my issues.

    Strangely enough of the 4 trans men I've known, none have been like this. Maybe they just internalized it.

  • I would totally date a pre-op trans man if they were okay with me liking their boobs.

    Gotta be a pretty rare scenario, but if it happens, sure

    There's a trans man who posts some nsfw pics that I follow, and his philosophy is "please enjoy my boobs while you can, bc as soon as I can afford it I'm cutting em off". If I knew him irl, I'd enjoy the boobs irl. But even then, he'd have to be pretty nonchalant to not get triggered or depressed by my appreciation of his feminine body, so I dunno if it could work out. Not to mention the more masculine he gets (hormones, surgery, etc) the less I'd be physically attracted to him. So definitely a short term thing.
