This community is housed on an instance run by two trans women, focused on the needs of the queer and gender diverse community.

We allowed 196 here because we were promised the community is queer and trans inclusive.

If you’re here it’s because you’re aggressively supportive of trans folk. Not middle of the ground, not “just asking questions”.

If your response to that is, “yes, but…” then this isn’t the instance for you, and by extension, this isn’t the community for you.

tl;dr - Unambiguous support and inclusion, or fuck off somewhere else.

Edit - I changed the phrase "aggressive support to “unambiguous support”, as there was some confusion over the intent behind my previous phrasing.

      but it’s weird so its gonna happen

      But it shouldn’t happen.

      “This is how things are” is a terrible excuse for why we should allow them to be that way.

      Hopefully you’re just being sarcastic tho

      Yes, it IS not the norm. It’s a minority. But that doesn’t make it weird. Just because it’s kind of rare doesn’t make it a bad thing. It’s been and still is the society that is making it weird for the people themselves. But I see a positive development to a more open minded and inclusive society, even tho the “angry people” who are against this are loud, they won’t be able to stop it! And they know it, that’s why they are so angry at everyone who’s different as them.

        It’s good to be weird. Weird means not normal, not mainstream. I find not weird to be boring. So bring on the weird!

          Right on. It’s good to be in the minority, to be different!! It would be boring and if everyone were the same.

          I have ADHD so there are always more people not like me than like me (unless I’m in a ADHD club or something lol). I could say I’m weird. But also I’m a different kind of normal. Who decides what is or isn’t normal anyway right?

          Anyway… The problem isn’t being unlike some majority group. The problem is the fear and hatred and ignorance.

          When it comes down to it we are all human.
