What do transphobes think of trans men?
Asking this out of both curiosity and annoyance. Noticed that generally, those that dislike or hate transgender people only seem to acknowledge trans women and AMAB nonbinary people. Or just... people born with a penis. They seem to never discuss transgender men.
I've seen a few posts here and there describing us as victims of grooming or something along those lines. Y'know, how they associate women (and any AFAB individual) with naivety? Easy to manipulate?
Trans women ("men") seem to always be portrayed as perverted, sexual deviants whose only goal is to invade and conquer. Portrayed as pretty evil by those that hate us. (As in trans people, not trans women.)
So, as a trans man, what do transphobes assume about me and others like me? Have any of you met transphobes with opinions on trans men? Are any of you transphobes with opinions on trans men? Please comment here.
Also, I am not going to attempt to explain and validate my own identity in the comments. I know I will get "you will never be a man", etc etc but I'm just interested in seeing how transphobes view us. I'm not going to debate you, that's not why I'm here.
And yes, obviously this question is rooted in bias. I was scrolling through a right-wing comic artist and saw a lot of portrayals of AMAB trans people so it ruffled my feathers and got me to post this. Triggered liberal moment ecks dee.
