it’s so strange to me that so many people genuinely seem to think ‘sexual attraction to trans people’ is the antonym of transphobia. like coming onto a post about transphobia - or, more often, transmisogyny - with 'lmao nobody in these replies slurps girldick or eats boypussy’ is just so absurd. what other axis of oppression do you treat like this? do you ask racists why they don’t want to fuck asians and black people, or can you perhaps realise that in that case is it not only absurdly inappropriate to counterpose the two, but that sexual fetishism of oppressed people is itself a common, if not ubiquitous form of bigotry?
