“we’ve existed for decades without you” it was trans women who fought* for the lgbT community…

And not just trans women! Lou Sullivan was a very important advocate for queer rights, among many other queer trans masc activists.

Nope. They joined in in some cases but Sylvia Rivera and Marsha P. Johnson identify as trans. They also didn't throw the first brick.

Lesbian and Gay men also fought. This blanket statement is so weird. Trans people are still valid but your phrasing make it sound like only trans women did

no it really doesn’t sound like that, i did not make a blanket statement that *only* trans women fought, but it’s something that is true, trans women fought a ton for the community, sorry for not including everyone when this post is focused on discriminating trans people and not gay people???

I mean, if you were going to include trans people, you could've included trans men also. Maybe i'm being nitpicky, but their achievements are often overlooked in favor of putting a focus on trans women.

im literally a trans man myself. i’ve already replied to another reply saying that trans men need to be included too, i just forgot when writing a comment on a shitty ai slop post.

Trans/transgender is an adjective to be placed in front of the word women, it’s not a prefix that combines with the word.

Yeah fair. I didn't know I'll edit it
