It’s obvious to me that most trans women do not look or behave like women.
Again, you have no way of knowing that. All you know is that you have seen trans people who you assumed were trans. My wife works with a cis woman who has rather masculine features and even a mustache. You would probably think she was trans.
You have no idea what is between someone's legs unless you can see for yourself.
This is what I meant by friction that most trans people both suffer from and cause.
You can claim to not be transphobic, but when you then victim-blame trans people for being the cause of their own problems, you are.
I'm guessing you wouldn't say that other queer people, such as a gay man, does not cause friction by being gay.

I feel like this is not true, but could be. Are there studies made on how people perceive trans men and women and how likely they pass?
As an anecdote... I practice jiu jitsu with groups where there are usually roughly 50/50 men and women. Some of them women are buffed as hell, but I've never perceived any of them as men. Then again, none have had a mustache.

I'm absolutely positive that I'm not transphobic. I'm not victim blaming, I'm stating what is happening, not whose fault it is.

It's true that the more accepting socities get, the less friction different things cause. Being gay is starting to be universally accepted in most places in the west. If trans people get similar acceptance, the friction will be lessened.
If you're absolutely positive that you're not transphobic, please explain to me about how gay men are the cause of their own problems.
Apologies for my slow reply/editing process. I mentioned that in my answer now.
Yes, you did. In the most disgusting excuse for bigotry and victim-blaming I've seen in a long time. You're now blaming victims for society not accepting them. You're now saying that gay men also caused friction by people not accepting them.
This is some seriously bigoted shit.
How about black people? Did they cause the friction by being brought to the New World as slaves? I hear it's being more acceptable to be black in the West these days.
I reject you calling me a bigot. It's uncalled for and bad behaviour. I know you're a mod here so perhaps my messages should just be removed and you should ban me. But you are breaking many of the rules of this place, at least #2, perhaps even #1.
It must be nice to be overtly bigoted and think you can get out of it by just saying you reject the label.
And no, I think I'll leave your comments up to show other people how some Star Trek fans completely fail to live up to the ideals being shown to them.
