          Victim complex. Maybe instead of making everything about you and your struggles, just take it for a funny post that has literally nothing to do with trans people.

            this post literally has something to do with trans people because a trans person posted it and shared how they felt, as a trans person, when receiving this message.

            but go ahead, discredit trans people by saying we have a “victim complex”. it outs you immediately as a transphobe so it’s useful for me

              Wow. You seriously just said “everything I interact with is about me”. That’s some serious, like not even funny, clinical level narcissism. I’m not even joking anymore, you should get therapy for that. It’s a really unhealthy outlook.

                Did you read the OP’s comment and explanation? That I was replying to? You actually seem lost. You’re trying so hard to be condescending but boo… like did you read the comment?

      wowwww a trans person making unfair assumptions/criticisms of people for quoting an extremely popular piece of pop culture.

      let’s all say it together!!

      Being trans does not grant a prejudice pass!!

        Someone literally just shared their experience as a trans person, and it was downvoted. Maybe listen to what the commenter said, instead of just down voting it?

      I think the people downvoting took “quoting Harry Potter sounds like you hate me” as “quoting Harry Potter means you hate trans people” (stated as fact). The OP said this is how it feels to them, we shouldn’t downvote people for sharing how they experienced something.

      Also I think people are reading it as “the worst pickup line.” rather than “the worst pickup line (for me as a NB person)”

      Being non-binary is not the same as being trans… and perhaps they were being downvoted for a different reason.

      I always find it odd when people assume why someone is being downvoted. You never know why someone votes the way they do.

          I stand corrected; non-binary people are transgender. I apologize for my ignorance. I just didn’t know.

          What I also don’t know is why you’re so angry. All that happened was I didn’t know something. I learned my mistake, apologized, and hope you’ll relax a little and realize that not everyone knows everything you do. Please don’t be mad at someone’s ignorance.

            Maybe don’t speak so confidently on trans issues when you aren’t trans! Esp considering the transmed vibe you have given off, inadvertantly or no. Just stop speaking for other people.

            And I rewrote the comment in caps not out of anger towards you, but out of a desire for clarity for anyone who reads it. Don’t take everything so personally. If you use transmed talking points, even inadvertantly, expect to be called an asshole. Same thing goes if you were to spout any bigoted talking points you didn’t understand.

              Again, I said something out of ignorance. I learned from my mistake. You still insist on being a drama queen about it.

              I hope you have a better day once you get over this drama.

                hmm I wonder why I might be “dramatic” over a topic that impacts me and most of the people I love most. hmmm.

                not buying your ignorance explanation anymore, you seem really dismissive.

                  “not buying your ignorance explanation anymore, you seem really dismissive.”

                  Of course I’m going to eventually be dismissive toward someone that is antagonistic from the beginning. The second I lash back you play the victim. Get over yourself. You wanna see dismissive? Go …

          Not necessarily. One can be non-binary and not be trans. I know someone that identifies as NB and they never “transitioned” into their current self. They’ve always been that way and never transitioned.

          Edit: also, what’s with the vitriol? Is this such a contentious subject that you’re angry that I might have a view other than yours? Why does that make me an “asshole?”

            It’s not a “different opinion”, it’s denying people’s identities which can lead to people denying trans healthcare. It’s a huge asshole take.

            Okay so like, 1% of nonbinary people don’t identify as trans but it’s generally accepted considered part of the trans umbrella and it’s fucked up to the vast majority of nonbinary people to say they arent trans… esp when there are tons of asshole transmeds trying to say that.
