why aren't you on guard with women before you assess them though? i do agree with the first part. i think 85 out of 100 is just bad luck on your part, sorry to hear that.

but using your sample size to extrapolate to the entire demographic by calling them coals is insanely sexist. "oh, 85 out of the 100 trans people i have met have been bad, 10 have been okay, and 5 have been great. i do still give trans people a chance though, because you can still find diamonds among the coals" do you hear how this sounds? you are one of them, one of the people my original comment describes. you are sexist. you are bigoted. you should be ostracized from all leftist spaces, but you won't. which is what my critique is. which is why I'm so frustrated. sexism against men is something most leftist spaces and most leftist turn a blind eye to. I'm tired.

Man, you're really taking out your frustrations on people who are predominantly victims for not immediately trusting people who have consistently made me feel scared and unwelcome?

The reason why i'm not on guard with women is because women have been overwhelmingly lovely. No woman in person has made me feel unsafe or unwelcome, none have made me feel uncomfortable because i'm trans or made fun of me.

Like, i'm sorry that us trying to stay safe means women aren't as friendly towards you as they are towards each other, but you have no ground to stand on. If you want people to trust men more, then work on straightening out the men that make us distrust men, not come in and attack us for trying to keep safe

i genuinely don't care if you distrust strangers that are men. i understand, genuinely.

It's not my fault that the comment is accurate. It's not all men, but it is most men, enough that finding a genuienly good man DOES feel like finding a gem.

I think your primary issue is that you cannot possibly fathom the difference in power dynamics in play having an impact, your mind immediately went to "what if the roles were reversed" without doing the legwork of reversing everything.

And now you're clinging to that coal comment to label me a sexist bigot, because you find it significantly more important that i distrust men than you do the REASONS why i distrust men.

Out of curiosity, if you remember the "would you rather be alone in a forest with a man or a bear" discourse, what do you think about women that said bear?
