As another trans woman it has been so hard for me to connect with other trans women because of this.
I’m very critical of men and the way they behave in our society, and my cis girl friends and gay male friends almost always agree.
Now every time I bring this up to trans friends they jump to defend men, girl why are you defending men when they’re literally the ones killing trans women and cis women at exponential rates and you’re telling me that men don’t have a problem??
I genuinely don’t understand that need they have to defend men…
You know what? I get it. You’re venting. This is a safe a space for trans women and I may be queer but I have no business questioning your experience.
You could word this differently, say the same thing and get zero pushback from your friends or the community imho. Not every day is a good day for wording things carefully though.
