  • You mean you're not engaging with a nonbinary person. Which is your personal definition of transphobe. You know, if I was a cis man and a trans person told me I was being transphobic, I would at least spend 10 minutes questioning if I'm wrong. I'd do that basic courtesy. But if you're telling me you're incapable of that, then fine. I'll let everyone else know exactly how you feel about the prospect of admitting maybe nonbinary people are real.

  • Believe it or not, other people care about supporting trans rights. Other people will actually make a new account (and abandon their @mechoselachia@lemmy.world) account so that they can ask you to display the barest shred of empathy for a nonbinary person.

    And you will listen to someone asking you to have empathy, and you will decide to ignore them and attack them, because apparently you have no empathy to give to nonbinary people, and you don't care.

  • The mission of Starfleet is to seek out new life with curiosity and enthusiasm. You found someone with a gender that you didn't understand, and instead of approaching it with curiosity and enthusiasm, you declared that xenogenders are transphobic.

    To quote Picard in The Measure of a Man: Starfleet was founded to seek out new life; well, there it sits! - Waiting.

    I have never posted a transphobic thing in my life. You simply think that the existence of xenogenders is transphobic.

  • It doesn't feel like news to you because women have been saying it for a long time and you've gotten used to the idea of women being strong and independent. That means the feminist movement has had some success. But there are plenty of men for whom it is news, and plenty more who hear it often but refuse to believe it. That means there's still progress to be made, even if you personally have been converted.

  • Men don't call themselves strong and independent because society already expects them to be strong and independent. It's not news. It doesn't need to be said. Thanks to the patriarchy, it's unfortunately news when a woman is strong and independent. Even if most of them have been strong and independent for a long time.
