Sorry to rephrase my comments towards you, I have come across communities on Reddit, here and elsewhere online where there is a post about something LGBTQ+ related. I post a comment around the subject, either asking a question or supporting the general cause, but ofc I experience the entire situation differently than somebody who is completely part of it, so people always notice it.
But instead of explaining where I am wrong or forming a normal conversation, I get shit like you are doing. Which really alienates me from the online communities. I act the same way when I am in person talking to people from LGBTQ+ and they act completely different and some even share the same opinion.
I do live in NL where the situation surrounding LGBTQ+ is more open than in a lot of other countries, but still.
Where do you suggest I start doing “my homework”? or are you just gonna shut me down trying to learn more about the subject like most have done?
But the consequence of it, is that people like me experience the not being able to talk about certain aspects of humanity or of life, which is kinda understandable to be fair.
Okey interesting, Ill keep it in mind.
It might not work for this situation I have experiences about the LGBTQ+ communities online, but who knows.
Thx!
I can personally recommend “Trans liberation: beyond pink and blue”, which is a series of talks by leslie feinberg on trans issues and intersectionality. Its not written with cis men in mind but might be a closer match? At any rate a really great read.
Might want to look into why that is…
Then tell me?
Do your own homework, you’re the one making claims

Because for a lot of people posting snark on the internet is more flattering to their ego than advancing the goals of movements they claim to support.
(Yes I amxaware of the irony within this post)
Well that doesn’t help no …

I heard great things about “The will to change” by Bell Hooks
