Let's just re-affirm that physical attractiveness does not relate to the value of a person.
If you want to see (what I consider) an attractive trans woman, watch this video. It's very long, yes, but the payoff won't be worth it without the entire context of the video.
You don't notice trans people who pass specifically because they pass. It's a sampling bias problem. You only notice the ones that stand out. Statistics would say you've met plenty of trans people without even realizing it.
It's still fairly likely you've met one and not known it, unless you're hanging out in your small town and not meeting anyone new. You'd be surprised at how well some people can pass with only hair, style, and makeup.
And yeah, so long as you're being nice, asking questions is a great way to learn! Plus, it helps other people who are too afraid to ask for themselves.
Yeah dude, I know 😒. I've had comments deleted and was banned for... nothing if you ask me. Some were discussions, some were questions... you can't expect a person to know everything there is to know about a subject, the dos and don'ts. I really had no intention to offend anyone, but hey, some people didn't take it like that I guess 🤷.
That's why I started posting mostly in shitposts, cuz almost anything goes here and people don't take things seriously here. The internet used to be like that... don't know when people got so itchy about certain subjects. You don't like it, move on 🤷. That's what I do, I never report anything.
Still, even here, looks like things can be taken very seriously. It just boggles my mind, but hey, things are what they are...
I wish moderators could edit comments to remove the unwanted offensive part. Were there a lot of downvotes? I can't see them on blahaj lemmy.
They knew what a trans person is, I hoped they could show a bit more respect tho
