laissez-nous-danser:

The word but never even came into my mind. No matter what we’re all fighting sexism and it doesn’t matter if you’re trans or cis because sexism is still sexism and it shouldn’t happen and if you can’t acknowledge that I am fighting sexism side by side with the trans community then I don’t think you can say anything since you aren’t even observing anything. I can have an opinion and you can have yours.

This is just dodging the actual matter at hand. I never said you aren’t fighting sexism. I never said you can’t have an opinion, either. Having an opinion doesn’t render you immune to critique. When you are ready to address the points I actually raised, I encourage you to do so. This conversation isn’t a personal attack against you. I won’t spend my time responding to dodge after dodge.

    I thought the op was a cis girl? Like I didn’t see anything on their page that pointed to trans. Did I miss something?
