  You’re really gonna have to start writing more than one sentence per comment if you want anyone here to know what the fuck you’re on about

    I wrote a lot more than 1 sentence in the beginning and linked a good thread with a bunch of trans individuals discussing said topic. They aren’t adding anything, just playing semantics with philic vs phobic.

  This whole exchange could be more productive if you could explain your opinions.

    They’re arguing that being sexually attracted to something is a phobia, the definition of which is having an irrational fear of something.

    Do you really think this person has the ability to string enough words together to justify their opinion?

      I hoped so.

      Did you read the original reddit thread? Chasers are dangerous to the trans community. It isn’t about being attracted to trans individuals, it’s about specifically seeking them out for being trans and fetishizing them being trans.

      Can you not see how this may look if you are the trans person in this relationship?

        What do you think the word “phobia” means, just out of interest?
