The experiences trans men and women have with misogyny will never not be fascinating to me. Like, for the first time ever we have this huge sample size of people who have experienced how their gender presentation affects how people interact with them, giving tangible proof of misogyny in action. And it can't just be swept aside with 'MaYbE tHe wOmEn JuSt miSuNDerStOoD' or 'mAYbe tHe mAN diDN't MeAn iT LiKE tHaT'. I mean idiots will still make idiot arguments but at least it chips away at them a little bit.

I told one of my friends that I'm being looked at differently in crowds now, and he just said "no you're imagining it".

Many people just do not believe what trans people tell them. At all.

Women aren't believed, are you a trans woman? If so it could be either that you're a woman or that you're trans.

(I hope not to misgender either but) bro, she knows. No need to mansplain it, read it again:

I was adding to it, not explaining it.

But is it because of being trans in general, or because of the direction of transition?
