I stopped caring about this kind of arguments when I realised that they can argue and rationalise all they want, but a penis is still a penis, and a dildo is still a dildo. If you’re someone who really would like to adopt a dog, but can’t for some reason, you might put a leash on an orange, for example, and walk it around like it was a dog, pet it, feed it (or try to lol), and meet only kind people who will pretend that’s really a dog because they don’t want to see you hurt. But in the end even if everyone agrees that’s a dog, it still won’t be, actually. Reality is not what anyone agrees it is, it’s what is materially there. Don’t know if I explained myself clearly. This actually makes me sad for people with dysphoria in a way, not gonna lie, because I can empathise, but we can’t all agree gravity pulls objects up from the ground and get angry when that doesn’t make it happen for real :/. I think trans people should just accept that some people might be attracted to them, and accept them and love them the way they are, but stop being aggressive demanding that ALL people look at a dildo and see a penis instead. Or that the categories of people they WANT to be attracted to them will do that if pressured enough, because that’s not looking for love, but for validation. People who love someone might want to validate them, or people who are kind, or think the same way, but not everyone is going to, and no one owes validation to anyone
