     Slowly for the TEHMs at the back ... not fancying a trans man (if you’re gay) doesn’t make you a transphobe. Making a big issue of it, or ironically claiming you aren’t transphobic just because you don’t find trans men attractive, means you probably are transphobic!

     There is something organised about a load of TERFs and TEHMs who all follow each other on Twitter ganging up on Stonewall for supporting the trans community.

     can we also stop pretending like terf rhetoric doesn’t also deeply affect trans men? bc terfs are often the ones to spread misinfo like this and indoctrinate ppl into being TEHMs
