      My sister taught me a lot about trans people when she transitioned and was just as awful as she was before. I held out the hope that it would somehow “fix” her from being a loud jerk, but that’s not how transitioning works.

      That being said every other trans person I’ve ever met has been perfectly lovely so I know it’s not bigotry.

        Trans people, like all other people, can be assholes. Assholery transcends everything. But so does goodness.

          One of the best parts of equality is the ability to see people, past their differences, and realise some are just absolute fuckwits regardless.

      My ex and I split up many years before I came out. This was pretty much my exs position on me when I came out.
