Obviously reporting transphobic comments to a transphobic mod isn’t going to result in any action, so I’m wondering if the admins are going to do anything about it?

    Alas, cis-women with natural advantages are the biggest losers. (Edit… Trans people are hurt the most and lose the most from transphobia. What I should have said was “cis-women with natural advantages are also victims.”)

    They tend to get caught up in the anti-trans nets and checks due to their natural biology being different from “platonic ideal of feminine woman” and being excluded (or even called men, cheaters, and rapists, and attacked and threatened). Which really shows that the people pushing this care more about excluding trans-women than giving cis-women a space to flourish.

        You’re right, I could’ve worded that in a much better way. I was too blinkered by rhetorical flourish.

        Trans people of all stripes lose harder from transphobia.
