I'm 44 and the "metrosexual" fashion you're discussing is now the norm for transphobic bigots like Matt Walsh. He dresses like a Queer Eye host from 2006.
I was denied access to any trans role models outside of fringe figures like Genesis P-Orridge. Transphobia was the norm.
I don't want to hang around weird gay dudes and the minstrel component of drag when performed by white performers is disgusting.
Have fun getting validated by middle aged white women who misgender you the second you're out of ear shot.
If you ever shit talked DIY HRT as being "unsafe" before the Texas move to ban all gender transitioning healthcare, I wish you nothing but ruin until your final breath.
May ever pore on your body become infected. May you never know sleep. May all your meals taste of ashes.
I didn't have a single trans person in my Florida high school in the 90s. I didn't so much as meet a trans person in Florida until I arrived at New College in 99.
Fun reminder that DeSantis completely destroyed everything special about NCF once he realized he could.
Please don't blow smoke up my ass that visibly queer people in Palatka didn't get the shit beat out of them on the reg. We were sideshow freaks on local talk shows like Monsters. We were sideshow freaks everywhere in all major media outlets and even PHouse drag shows.
I heard countless stories of Chud showing up in the DMs of trans people on twitch, many of them skewing on the Quite Young side and coming off like a chaser freak.
I pass by a bar that does drag nights every night I leave work and I don't having a single thing in common with the tenderqueer patrons who frequent the place.
Remember when your actions contributed directly to a woman setting herself on fire when you helped get her GFM for GCS pulled?
I walk through that park where she killed herself regularly.
Who the fuck out here defending Catholics when their church has an institutional history of protecting child abusers?
You have to fight the white woman mind virus, not succumb to it.
