I see people on tiktok in the big 2026 calling trans women "people with mental illnesses". Yes, trans women cannot claim that they know womanhood better than cis women but it feels like everyone (cis women and trans women) has extreme opinions. Many LGBTQ+ members are showing transphobia, even tho I felt like we got over that stage.
I am a cis woman but many other women suddenly do not like being called as "cis women" because they are "real" women?? I agree that many trans women have probably felt priviledged before they became women, that's why SOME claimed they experienced womanhood more that cis women, but that doesn't give anyone the right to call them "misogynistic" for literally existing.
This ofc is not as big of a deal when it comes to trans men because they come from an opressed side, but no one seems to question their identity like trans womens'.
I advocate for women and how they feel, due to the fact that I am one and I'm also a part of the LGBTQ+ commynity. But that doesn't give anyone the right to attack on trans women and trans people in general, who have been fighting for their rights for years.

YES OMG its so annoying. if they knew anything abt queer history theyd know that none of us would have rights w/o trans people, and trans women specifically have always been at the forefront while also being targets of a lot of discrimination (eg stonewall). also many elements of queer culture like ballroom culture/vogue and queer slang were created by trans women, esp trans woc, so i hate seeing other gay cis people acting like our community would be better w/o them. b1tch it would barely exist
Fr and we’re forgetting all of this just because it’s not cool anymore ig to stand with trans women. Calling them “men in women clothes” in the big 2026 does not magically erase years of history

when it comes to trans women, like a lot of queer minorities, they always get picked on for crap and/or unrealistic reasons.
it's so often i hear about "trans women have an unfair advantage cause its a man playing a womans sport". or "trans women are creep men who wanna be in female bathrooms". and that's the sort of thing that keeps echoing again and again and has done for years (even though it's so dumb and even if it weren't dumb it's not true but you try and explain that to someone who closes their ears and goes "lalalala i cant hear you"), and *THAT* sort of statement, which may appear plausible (even for a few moments), is a big problem and it's definitely contributed to the normalization of trans hate.
omg yes and even tho it has been going on for years the whole problem right now is that it's a fucking tiktok trend?? how can ppl just go along with the trends instead of having at least some fundamental views (and i am saying "at least" because we're talking about RIGHTS.)

eating tide pods was a tiktok trend. it comes and goes. people just eat up anything that sells nowadays, and what sells is hate. the only thing you can really do is not eat it up yourself. σβηστο το γαμιδι :>

Trans man here I agree it's annoying as I have a few of trans fem freinds
I would like to add my Insite to the trans man thing
Another reason why People don't question trans men because they don't see trans men as men but rather tomboys. It's why their isn't a question that an the idea that men are superior so it's seen as an "ofcorse u want to be a man it's better"
We r basicly invisible which is why we aren't questioned as much as trans women alot of heat are on them because it's easier calling trans women predictors than trans men because it dosnt match their argument. Points your comment about coming from an oppresed group and stuff of
Also fetishisation not just from men but women as well is pretty crap honestly. Trans fems also get this but I could do an essay about that!
This isn't me disagreeing with your comment just as more I site as well and an add on
Idk if this is helpful or not
Also wanna quick mention about alot of people talking over trans people in the lgbtqia+ community. Alot of the time our transness is erased eg the trans men lesbian. They don't see the lived experience and quick to say you can't your a man which just invalidates the trans about us trying to overly support but at the end erase it and oppress it
Which is an common issue I've seen
So sorry if this dosnt make sense went of on a bit of a tangent

it's great that you added your point of view!! i feel like the whole thing just shows that ppl not only view feminity as less but they are more accepting of masculinity for the wrong reasons as you said (like treating you as "tomboys" which is really invalidating).
