Thanks, yeah, it seems like past trans people acknowledged biological reality. I wasn't in tune with these issues prior to about 5 years ago, but from what I've seen, they weren't so angry. They were accepting, they had a sense of humor about their situation. Now it just seems like TRAs make people feel permanently victimized and offended and entitled, whereas earlier generations knew they were outliers and just wanted to be treated with decency and respect. I'm sure that's simplifying things a bit. I have read that there were problematic elements in the trans community going back to the 70s. But it surely wasn't as common as now.
