A girl got mad at me today because I didn’t acknowledge that she’s trans? She said something about being trans and I said “oh I didn’t that” and then she got mad and assumed that I was pretending to not know??? cause it was “obvious” and i’m ???

Girl she’s just being insecure, I promise you are not the villain here 😭 how fucking weird would it be going around openly acknowledging everyone’s gender when we meet them?

you said nothing wrong, she must be still insecure/self conscious about her looks. you are not responsible for that

she was like “so did you just think I was ugly or what?” and then telling my other friend that she couldn’t believe I couldn’t tell and that I must be lying. So it was definitely insecurity, but I was like come on 🫩

Even if you did it’s still weird unless she brings it up herself. My coworker is a trans woman and I knew her before she transitioned or even came out, and she definitely does not act like that

Why does that feel like internalized transphobia 🤨 equating ugliness to being trans

idkkkk but I definitely have decided to start limiting my conversations with her. I hope she can get over her self consciousness but I did not like how that conversation went at all.

Do you have to interact with her often?

Sort of? She’s friends with my other friend so it’s like a mutual thing.

Ahhh I gotcha. I wasn’t sure if it was more avoidable because personally I cannot be around people like that :,) but best of luck
