Oh you're totally fine! I didn't interpret your comment that way at all, but that's thoughtful of you to check :)

Once you say "yes, I think trans is a real thing" many people these days will just interpret that as "I think being born in the wrong body is an actual thing".

Yeah, that's true, that interpretation has become very ubiquitous now.

"No one is actually saying that sex is not real" / "No one actually means that" has by now also turned into people literally saying and meaning just that.

Exaaaactly. It really bothers me when some trans people say stuff like that denying what are common phrases and points of argument for many other trans people.
