This has DEFINITELY been on my mind, & I'm a heterosexual male. I have a sister who is also very concerned of males role playing & claiming to be females as well. I don't see any state in the U.S. (even conservative ones) being fully able to avoid the trans insanity/delusional nonsense. I have a lot of empathy for biologcal females & I'm p***ed off for them.

Also as a heterosexual male, I want to be able to look for a REAL woman to be romantic with & not apologize, or "question" myself for not being into natal MALES!!! It's crazy how this conversion therapy, coercive rape rhetoric is allowed. Yeah, I'm definitely looking at other options.

Where I live, in conservative rural US, the teenagers (mostly white, like the town) march with "Black Trans Lives Matter" signs last summer. I know every single black person in this town, and none of us is trans. Those kids were not marching for the local people, neither for our lives, nor for the people who gathered to watch their small parade.

I say this to illustrate how the mindset is everywhere, taking over everything, every movement. It is the internet. We have had high speed internet/wireless phones for over a decade now. I doubt anywhere is safe, and I am mad about it. I am glad some men are also mad about it- speak up for all of us, please. For your sister, mom, your hoped for partner, and those of us you don't know or even like.

I am happy that there are men who can see through the bullshit and who will stand up for women. Thank you.

Have you looked at s/SuperStraight?

I don't know if there's a state where you can fully avoid it, and many Americans can't afford to pick up and move, so maybe it's best to stand and fight.

I would advise against using "natal" unless you're doing satire (I'm assuming you're not, it doesn't look like you're quoting anything). You are a man. I'm not trying to police language (it's fine to use it here). I'm really just giving advice if you want to discourage the usage of language TRAs use to try to find a "in-between" of conflicting mentalities. I wish you luck. I hope to find a man and not have to find out it's a TiM/TiF (either a male who is trying to be a woman or female trying to be a man) after sharing bits of my life story with him. Dating takes a large amount of emotional and psychological investment which I can't afford to waste so I know how you feel.
