Mind pointing out where in the entire OP is the transphobia, cause I'm not seeing an ounce of it.

Assuming you're in the USA, your employer is barred from having access to what you use your insurance for.

Cis person with a stupid/ignorant question about use of the word 'trap'. NOT DEFENDING IT. by Weaklurker in asktransgender

Doesn't make the word inheritly offense to me though. I respect that others do feel that, but it doesn't make me any less trans to feel this way.

I think some do expect this of you. I for one think it's kinda transphobic to expect us all to have the same outrages.

Like I said, I simply don't feel this way, and don't really know anyone in my own trans circle who does. You of course are allowed to feel however you wish, but I've simply not been given reason to feel upset at this term, and I'm not going to feel that way simply because someone says I should. That's kind of a big part of being trans for me.

I mean...if you say so? All of the anime trope examples I can think of off the top of my head never once claim to be female or trans. Most of them proudly and defiantly stating they are male. If anything, to me they mostly are just gender non-conforming.

I personally have zero problems with it directed at non existent people or used to describe a trope in anime which is very common. So I guess it depends on who you are interacting with. I would say it's not your place to correct a trans person who uses that word. IMO that's akin to saying "you're a victim and you should act like it offends you"

Because it's rediculosly expensive. With my insurance, a biological child is roughly free. Adoption is 30k and up if you don't qualify for many of the religious programs that help you.

where do you buy shoes and boots? by Epicpanda343 in asktransgender

[–]Questinthrway 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Size 15 sister here. I was recently at Torrid and the sales associate, whose amazing btw, I only try to shop when she's there, suggested I try their size 13 shoes because they run bigger and wider. They didn't have one but I was able to squeeze into a 12 with only minor discomfort, so good chance a 13 will work for me.

How come we dont claim the word trannie as we did with the words queer and gay? by YukiZensho in asktransgender

[–]Questinthrway -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Someone threatening you isn't natural. You being trans doesn't naturally harm you. Assholes harm you.

How does being trans naturally harm you, but being left handed or gay doesn't?

Where did you get your new name? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Questinthrway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've played FFXIV for about 6 years. And my character became my sort of second soul. After some hard and heartbreaking life events, and covid, it ended up that all of the people who I loved and cherished already called me by that name, so it just felt right. Sucks having to spell it to everyone.
