Good day all, in response to the increase in transphobia we've experience since the For Women Scotland v Scotland Supreme Court decision, seemingly a mix of genuine malice and people tripping up with a topic they're unfamiliar with, I've taken the initiative to write some guidelines on how to engage in the topic and clearing up some common misconceptions.

https://guide.feddit.uk/politics/transphobia.html

I'm not all that happy with them, I want something more comprehensive but my time has been pretty taxed lately and I don't want my perfectionism to stand in the way of having these out. If there's any issues, glaring omissions or whatnot, then please let me know or make a pull request here.

So is it black peoples or trans peoples identities that you believe are worth less?

What more discussion is there to be had?

You know what, I don't even want to know.

I don't think you read at all what I said correctly.

You said you don't like people telling you how to think. But no one is.

They are just telling you that your an arsehole if you think a certain way.

You have the right to think how ever you like. But we will also judge you based on that thinking.

It's less telling you that you're an arsehole and moreso a threat of a ban. I think the downvoting is usually enough to ward away arseholes

Are you under the impression the admins can read your mind?

I wish people could understand me better

Then learn to write more transparently.

Easy to say if you're neurotypical
