LinkLike the way they're treated, not just world wide but in the trans community as a whole, is really disheartening. Now don't get me wrong this is NOT a missing contest for who has it worse. Its bad for all of us ,im just specifically upset with the manner of how trans men are addressed in media and in social situations

LinkI believe a lot of people cannot tell the difference between trans masc and Trans men and thats actually a problem. People seem to connect trans men with lesbianism the same way one might with trans masculinity when they're not the same thing, despite both being spectrums

LinkWhat I'm trying to get at is the fact that people actually assume that all Trans men are lesbian when that is not the case, believe it or not Trans men are men the same way that trans women are women. Even in the lgbt community there's a disproportionate amount of inconsideration when it comes to trans men who are transitioning, or trans men who dress fem. They genuinely believe you have to "pass" in order to well...pass, I think thats wrong. Nobody transitions within a day, it takes years and its a long stressful journey that takes a lot of hard work. Its really backhanded to mock their existence just because they don't look how YOU want them to.

LinkIts always respect pronouns until its time to respect a Trans man's pronouns. And if that guy goes by He/Him, respect that and use those instead of they/them. (Unless they go by that too but if not then you get the point)
