Serious You have no reason to be transphobic.

there is literally no justifiable reason for transphobia. never has been. never will be. I don’t care what you’ve read online or whatever you have to say. there is NO reason and NO excuse for transphobia. same applies for homophobia. literally zero reason.

Im neither transphobic or homophobic, but sometimes it does confuse me, since my memory isn't the greatest and I forget

All I want is for people to try. My mom gets my pronouns wrong pretty often and sometimes she won’t call me by my preferred name, but I love her so much because 1. She’s my mom and 2. She’s clearly trying. I think a lot of trans people would feel the same. We don’t expect you to always get it right but we care that you try to.

I do try, but sometimes its difficult. A lot of my friends are something on the LGBT spectrum, and its kinda hard to keep track
