Why do trans women make themselves an easy target?

[Sour-rose]

I really should get some sleep but no job to report to tomorr-... this morning and this question has been on my mind. Just today I found this lady in a skirt but with a bit of peachfuzz... actually a lot. Not more than the hair on my upper lip but also just a plain... colorful dress with red lipstick sitting on the floor. And a girl in a rocking skirt in a rocking outfit. And ano- easy to spot transwomen is what I'm saying. Why do these bitches do this? I'm sure I can look this up or already know the answer but my bitch, you know you asking you get shot in the back by a hater, right? I like skirts, but I don't pull on full dresses. Especially sparkly ones when going to cinemark or whatever. So anyone have an idea why they don't put on something more causual that doesn't put them out that easily?

(i know... but the only reason can't be because they have two boys... right?)

I don't understand the commentary so, I'll just answer the question.
In what way?
When first transitioning, before you can get all the other stuff done, you have to present as female (or male, depending on which way you're going) for at least a year. That means, do your best to look like a woman in public, 24/7. That way, they know you're in it for the long haul and it's not just a whim that you'll consider a big mistake after the surgery, and will give you your papers to allow you to get the surgery. If they have a bit of facial hair, maybe they're still getting laser or electrolysis done to get rid of it. I don't know about laser but, with electrolysis, they can only do about a 1" square patch per visit.
Presenting full time before surgery CAN be tricky!

[Sour-rose]

My my... good point. But in what way? I mean they look like women but if walking alone on the streets, they won't be seen as women- they'll be seen as target practice. While a gay person... will easily live another day as long they don't be so open about it. That clear it up a tad?

[FunkyMonkee]

It could be their height, the way they walk or the shape of their ass. Girls have wider hips so babies can get through. That's why their ass wiggles when they walk.
One of my trans friends came over to the house one day and mom met her and, later, commented on how big her hands were. If not for that, you'd never be able to tell she was trans. We went to see The Monkees one afternoon at a small outdoors gig and, when Davey sang, "and then I saw her face", he pointed straight at Carla!
I'm not gay at all but, I've had at least two attacks because some assholes thought I was! The first time, we were playing a party at the house where we rehearse and I was on my way to the basement to start the show when a couple Oi boys started chasing me through the house screaming, "Kill the faggot!!" One of them threw a beer on me and another threw a lit match at me and missed!! The second time, were on stage, just about to start playing when I stepped out onto the stage to sit at the drums and another Oi boy rushed the stage and tackled my guitarist, knocking him over into my right bass drum and snapping the clamp on my pedal!
Yet, I'm friends with a number of trans people,. mostly M - F, and I've never heard a word from any of them about being attacked.
I've also had a couple gay guys hit on me because they thought I was gay!
Anyway, gay guys hardly ever get beat up. Most are VERY obvious about being gay and nobody gives them any shit about it but, for some reason, when someone's trans, LOOK OUT!!
What I don't understand is why gays act the way they do! I NEVER see women act or talk that way! So, if they're trying to emulate women, they're completely wrong! And, if they're only interested in men, why would they act fem? They SHOULD act as butch as possible, like a lot of men do.

[Sour-rose]

woah... didn't know that most gay folks are safe. O: Literally thought they were... like trans folks, getting attacked for living their lives.

[FunkyMonkee]

Look at how many gay bars there are. You never see any of those getting shot up or boosted just because it's full of fags, do you?
Yeah, exactly! Trans people are just doing what they need to do to live their lives the way they need to. They aren't hurting ANYBODY! I never see people torturing those that get tattoos or bizarre piercings! What about the guys that got surgery to look like the devil or a lizard? Nobody tries hurting them!

[Meropatrick]

These guys have real issues that makes them dress as women in the first place

They seek validation from males plain and simple. They didn't have a strong male figure that gave an f about them. So they think being a weird woman would give them that. Politicians prey on such misfits and try to use them in their propaganda

[Sour-rose]

Hhhhm... you got a point there. Somewhere but a point.

They are annoying other people when

they enter women’s sports competitions and win. biological males tend to be physically stronger.

They enter beauty pageants and win because of political reasons.

They call men transphobic if they say they aren’t interested in dating trans women. It’s not ttransphobic to not be interested in dating somebody who doesn’t have a proper female genitalia

They say things that are not true scientifically not true which makes themself look dumb.
Trans people call the side effects of their medication a period or PMS.
It can't be PMS because only people with menstrual cycles have PMS. A menstrual cycle is when an egg leaves the ovary every month etc. Also a period is when the uterus sheds its lining. Trans people don’t have uterus.

Also when they recommend children take puberty blockers which is harmful they make themself look crazy in the eyes of the non-trans population

[Sour-rose]

... Bruh, you just spittin your opinion or got an actual answer?

[Opinion Owner]

When you wrote
Why do trans women make themselves an easy target?
I thought you were talking about for hate and bullying. I wrote reasons why some people find them annoying

[Sour-rose]

Naaaaah, you misunderstand, bruv. Bullyin- no. Hate... i can see that easily.

Why do trans women make themselves an easy target?

I thought you were trying to ask why are they an easy target for hate and bullying.

I explained why I believe people find them annoying and offensive

[Bethany22]

Maybe dressing excessively as a woman helps distract themselves from any disgusting feelings of masculinity they feel that they have.

[Anonymous]

Apparently a lot of trans people when they first transition have a phase where they dress more childish or more flashy—epecially when they're adults.

The going explanation is that most people have that weird style phase as a kid or teen, but those trans people never got to dress as their gender when they were that age. They have to sort of "catch up" with it.

So I think it's a normal but temporary thing. They will likely figure out what fits them and settle into a more regular style soon.

What? Also my bad I didn't mean to be anonymous.

[Sour-rose]

o shi, uuuh... consider yourself a MHO in my book... but not publicly. Because... ya know how it is.

[Opinion Owner]

Oh okay, thanks. I'm glad I could help.

[OddBeMe]

So easy targets to you are just “easily recognized”… even tho they’re minding their own business?

I suggest you do the same.

[Sour-rose]

In a way... from history I've seen, yeah. :c Mindin' yo own business and then

Bang. Tire noises.

[OddBeMe]

Sorry that’s still life sentence. Just being lgbt isn’t.

[Charliefretz329]

Even when they lose the “boys” they still do bizzare things usually. I agree with you, for many of them I think they like the attention, negative or positive

[jshm2]

Because they are really just guys infatuated with a crazy ideal they have of a "woman".

Sort of like the token Black guy in a group of White friends trying too hand to appear "White".

[Unit1]

Here's a counter question first of all: Are you jealous, that transgirls appear as beautiful as women if not more than some women?

[Sour-rose]

Nah, it was just 4 Am thing and... shoulda been asleep but look what the brain wanna ask.

[slatyb]

For the same reason that some women make themselves an easy target.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Maybe it's because they won't stay in their lane and stop tryin to be a real woman cause there not. Just because you look like a woman doesn't me you are a woman

[Jennz6]

Yes , I suppose you are correct

[Anonymous]

What do you expect from mentally Ill people?

[Sour-rose]

well that's not very noice D:
