It’s actually a pretty complex process for an Australian woman to be causing you, an American, psychic harm from across an ocean, by having wrongthink despite my voting for Aussie laws that protect transgender people from actual discrimination.

To be honest, Australians are scary on their own - they are living among poison spiders, crocodiles, scorpions and medusas, they are walking upside down and they have winter when we have here summer.

I can promise you that as scary as our wildlife sounds it’s mostly chill.

You’re much more likely to get king hit by some pissed dickhead named jayk wearing a Bintang singlet and crusty thongs at the pub. Or be accosted by a meth addict who will try and bum a dart and if you say no, steal your shoes.

At least the snakes you can avoid or yeet away if you know how to handle em.

True, snakes and spiders at least respecting you, unlike men :insert_chuckling_emoji_here:.

Bahaha, you’re not wrong tho. Once you’re in the habit of checking shoes and gloves for spiders, and stomping a bit as you walk through long grass the wildlife will leave you be.

Even most of the men can be deterred easily enough with a decent sized stick or a good loud shouting hahaha

We live in a global culture and arguing for us to be dehumanized and unable to be able to actually live in society isn’t being done in a void.

I’ve never argued for trans people to be dehumanised, or to be unable to live in society. Once again, you are projecting your own beliefs about yourself onto other transgender people, and misinterpreting my messages according to those beliefs.

Until you choose to stop filtering everything through your pain, everything in the world will feel like an attack. Your perceptions aren’t objective truths.

Yeah, you have. Making our access to necessary care harder or impossible. Arguing we shouldn’t have access to safe facilities. Arguing we should be restricted from things. Arguing we shouldn’t be able to protect ourselves by concealing that we are trans. That’s what you are doing.

If we can’t conceal who we are, can’t get care, have no way to live in the world since we can’t access necessary facilities, how is that living in society?

There you go projecting again.

Keep ignoring my points I guess.

It’s all you ever do in response to me. At least my points are points, not a repeated list of distorted perceptions.

Sure chief. Whatever you say.

Particularly rough day? You aren’t usually so determined to get the last word. All snark put aside here, white flag a-wavin.. is something like a trans positive helpline something you’d like links to? Idk if they’d be any help to you but I get the feeling you could use a friendly ear more than open debate that clearly feels like a personal attack.

All days are rough days. I may have less patience today because I’ve been working for 15 hours though. But no those resources would not be helpful to me.
