    Does anyone know what NTE / Negative Trans Experience means? I heard it on social media and wasn't sure if they meant it in a positive or negative light, and so I was afraid to ask for clarification in case they just yelled at me. When I google it, there are brief mentions about the negative experience we face with discrimination, but I only found two links that used this phrase.

    What's the context in which it was used? If there aren't a lot of Google results on it, it's likely not actually a super common phrase and more likely just a niche or insider phrase of a particular sub-community.
