No, chasers are people that specifically fetishize transwomen or transmen for being trans.
Comment on Lemmy is the best social media
Iapar@feddit.de 1 week agoI don’t get it.
How is it undermining that and not affirming? I mean to fetishise a group is wrong, I get that and that is also my opinion but if they want to fuck a transwoman they want that because she is a woman which affirms the womanhood?
And the point is how is it transhate if you like the trans aspect specifically. Doesn’t make sense to me.
It is not a wordplay it is what those words mean. Phobic means something like hate or fear and phile means something like love or attraction.

Hmm okay. But the I still don’t understand how it is transphobic.

You don’t understand how undermining someone’s gender identity by focusing on them being trans over them being their expressed gender is transphobic?

It doesn’t sound like they’re afraid to me?

Do you see why fetishizing black people for their skin coloris racist? Its similar to that.

I can see that. But that wouldn’t be “negrophobic” either. Not everything negativ in the context of a group is phobia.

The poor thing thinks words mean whatever they decide they mean. They’re not capable of explaining their position in an intelligent way, either.
