What horseshit. They just want to have it both ways so they get to be the victim no matter what.

If you require an instruction manual for people to interact with you and will find fault with everyone else no matter how far they bend backwards in order to appease you….maybe the reason people want nothing to do with you is not due to a “phobia” but simply because normal people find you fucking exhausting to deal with.

That was what pushed me over the "peak trans" moment. Actually I had several of those moments hit people I was friends with and 1 or 2 with me. It's like at every opportunity they find some way to make you not want to interact with them.

Unfortunately the friends seemed to end up bowing to the peer pressure and went full cult and i haven't really talked to them anymore. The fact that the cult hurt them in the first place helped push me over the top of the mountain and over time i become less and less interested in appeasing them.

reminds me of the "gentle suggestion" I saw on here that friends go to a cafe or somewhere before meeting a TQ friend and practice using their new pronouns; and that's on top of the "you shouldn't act like you want a PRIZE for just doing the bare minimum!" ingratitude and the "I don't want overt compliance, I want you to want to think of me this way" ego-tripping

fuckin' unsatisfiable black holes, even if you dedicate your life to someone with no personality other than TQ you're still never more than a replaceable non-player character
