   Slowly for the TEHMs at the back ... not fancying a trans man (if you’re gay) doesn’t make you a transphobe. Making a big issue of it, or ironically claiming you aren’t transphobic just because you don’t find trans men attractive, means you probably are transphobic!

   can we also stop pretending like terf rhetoric doesn’t also deeply affect trans men? bc terfs are often the ones to spread misinfo like this and indoctrinate ppl into being TEHMs
