Saying that you aren't "OK with trans" is like saying you aren't "OK with trees." Being trans isn't an adopted belief system. Trans people exist. They are who they are. If someone can't accept that, then yeah, they're a bigoted asshole and shouldn't be accommodated.

lol at the tree analogy. trees are trees. men aren't women. it is an adopted belief system.

and yes, i am proudly a bigoted asshole for accepting that men in dresses and poorly applied makeup aren't women.

My fave was "I wouldn't allow a transphobe at my wedding no matter who they are to me. I won't have that in my life."......fight on, proud warrior, fight on.

The funny thing is that most of the ppl in support of the bridesmaid seem to be laboring under the impression that the bride's dad is going to be screaming anti trans rhetoric while beating the shit out of this kid for the entire event. My thoughts are "would the dad even notice ?...would he really care, given that it is a pretty big day, probably going to be family he wants to catch up with.....also, maybe he isn't all down with the trans stuff, but he probably has a filter and a sense of decorum and isn't actively going to make a scene at his daughters wedding." Those are crazy thoughts, silly me.

The whole thing highlights the extent to what trans and trans adjacent people think the world revolves around them. This woman cannot conceive of a place where the kid isn't the center of attention simply do to the fact that the kid is trans and as such will suck all the oxygen out of the room with the wonders of transhood. Pssst, lady, nobody at that wedding will give a single stinky shit.

they really think that the "transphobes/GCs/TERFs" are always plotting violence against them and that it will happen at any moment. sometime. eventually.

Trans trees are trees, phobe.
