Things Non-LGBT People Say...

"Oh, wait, I can't make those jokes about you anymore"

 

"I accept you for what you are, not what you feel like being."
"You should be proud of being a girl."
"You don't even know what you are."

In regards to me being trans. :eusa_ange
I'm mostly surrounded by supportive people, though, and have many accepting friends. Same goes with my family. I'm glad. :icon_mrgr

 

I don't like lesbians. I don't mind gay people but not lesbians.

 

"I'm not homo/transphobic! I have plenty of gay/trans friends!"

 

"There's something obviously wrong with Trans people, that's why they're depressed even after transitioning..." - Maybe because of people like you saying shit about them?

"Bisexual just means desperate!"

"How could anyone be gay?" - It's as simple as being attracted to one sex and not the other. A gay guy might equally say "How could anyone be straight?"

"Bisexual is just when you perv over anyone." - ...What?

"Of course he was asexual, he was busy." - When I mentioned that Isaac Newton was asexual.

 

I came out to my mom as transgender.

She said: "You were born as girl do you are a girl. God makes no mistakes."

Me: Thanks mom.

I talked about bisexuals with my best friend. I wasn't out to her.

She said: Well I think they are weird and unnatural.

I decided come out to her few days later cause I knew she will say something different.

She said: Oh that's nice, I don't have problem with it. I think it's cute.

Yea sure. Straight people can be pretty disgusting sometimes. I mean I appreciate she was polite but she doesn't have to lie to me.

 

Wow. My jaw actually dropped open at that one.

Heteronormativity is a dangerous thing

 

Sorry my brain.exe is not responding. :/ How do you mean it?

 

As in, when I read that my jaw dropped open in shock/confusion.

And heteronormativity, i.e. seeing only cis straight people as normal, is dangerous in that everyone who doesn't fit in takes a lot of hate, intentional or unintentional, from everyone non-LGBT+ around them, and sometimes from people within the LGBT community.

 

Yea I understood the jaw thing. As for heteronormativity, I honestly don´t care. If she doesn´t have the guts to tell me what she thinks, it´s her problem. She just have to make up her mind, that´s all.

 

From yesterday night...

Dude1: What's up with this chick? Are you two fucking?
Me: Well...
Dude2: Dude, why are you insulting the girl? Why are you implying she's a LESBIAN?
1: BECAUSE SHE IS DUDE
2: IS THIS TRUE? ANSWER WITH A YES OR A NO, ARE YOU A LESBIAN?
M: Hmm yes and no, I guess. I'm bisexual.
2: What's that foreighn terminology, I don't know it! DO YOU STILL LIKE DICK?

M: If I have kids with a woman...
1: Two women can't have kids, that's biologically impossible.
M: We can always adopt.
1: Hahahaha these will be some fucked-up kids!

And the bi-transphobic combo:
"Man the ideal partner for her is a tranny. A girl with a dick."

 

Today, this happened:

*Standing with my friends, just talking, when suddenly two random girls start kissing next to us*

Friend: You should join them, because gay.

:lol: That logic. XD

 

Ah yes, the good old idea that you should fool around with anyone gay, because you're gay. Logic *EPIC FACEPALM*

 

"So how do you have sex then?" I'm a virgin, and thats none of your business
"Does that make your boyfriend gay?" He can be whatever he wants to be. At the end of the day he still loves me.
:/

 

"The devil made them."

 

This happened just today,I was walking with my friend and we somehow got to "my sexuality topic". I´m out to her. She was aking but when I started talking she realised we are on street - houses, people. She looked me: "What if someone hear you?"

Yea because when I say something about my sexuality/gender I actually mean my super secret plan about taking over the world ;P

 

Oh, you don't mean the super secret plan to convert the world to believing in free speech, freedom of sexuality & gender, tolerance, and love of one another? THAT super secret conspiracy?

*chills*

 

Damn it got out. She was right! :/

 

"Transgender people aren't real. You cannot just choose your gender... Intersex people are real, and that is a sad and unfortunate thing to happen, where the parents have to make the tough decision of what gender to raise the child."

 

The one I've heard the most would have to be: "I wish I was bi like you, I'd get laid all the time!"

When I came out to my grandmother, she thought that I'd instantly become a sex crazed prostitute and some sort of STI zombie. That was probably just the initial shock, she's a lot more accepting now.
