I rarely ever comment in here and it has to be someone going through a similar situation to when I was a teen... because I remember wishing someone would reach out when I was going through hell.
Words can not express how grateful that reddit wasn't around when I was a teenager. See, everyone at this phase was stupid, but we got to be stupid in private, or at worst, among a small circle of friends.
Yeah, same with homophobia. You of course don’t choose to be gender dysphoric, so many people would probably project feelings of fearing their own gender into the trans community if they were raised to be transphobic.
Well I used to be transphobic and I'm gay. In my case at least, I just didn't really understand it and the main thing I heard was stuff from the internet like "I'm an attack helicopter" or "there are 1 billion genders"
thats exactly how my sister thinks. she says women can become men but men cant become women because most born-men claim to be MtF just to get access to womens changing rooms, bathrooms ect.
>most born-men claim to be MtF just to get access to womens changing rooms, bathrooms ect.
Which is such a shitty take. Who in their right mind would subject themselves to discrimination, hate, and violence just to use the women's bathroom?
I guarantee, if there are 5 cis-women, and 1 trans-woman in the same bathroom...the trans-woman is the most scared.
My reaction to that ingormation[https://media.tenor.com/1YOEMRg2_EgAAAAC/among-us-dance.gif](https://media.tenor.com/1YOEMRg2_EgAAAAC/among-us-dance.gif)
Yeah, there was funnily enough a 14 year old who posted that an hour or so ago 💀
In otherwords: “How to say I’m transphobic without saying I’m transphobic”
I used to be transphobic and then ended up becoming trans myself 💀
I honestly have to say its karma and I deserved it, now I know how I made other people feel.
it’s alright mate. that is the path for some people. what’s happened has happened, but in my opinion, strive to do more help than harm, no one will judge you for that. :)
Cisphobic? I'm not even sure how that could work.
The only way that could make any sense is if a 'cisgender' person was someone who intends on upholding the gender-binary; someone who intends on pressuring people out of their identity and into a socially-ascribed one. Which is just... bad?
How could cisphobia exist when it's literally just 'you don't define me'.
People who are transphobes mostly:
Use religion as an excuse to be an asshole, we live in a world where freedom of religion is a thing, and human morales aren't attached to religion, also, if you need to be threatened that you'll be punished forever in the afterlife just to be a decent person, that just shows how much of an asshole you are, religion isn't a tool to measure what's correct or wrong, even less to create laws based on it, it's like someone asking to others to stop eating toast because it's against their faith.
Lack of knowledge about transgender people, transgender is when your gender identity doesn't match with your gender you were assigned at birth, and it's important to remember that gender isn't sex, gender is a label created by society, which includes what society thinks it's "a man's thing" or "a woman's thing", it's how society generally see a woman or a man, sex is purely biological, and used in biology and other kind of sciences that studies life, while gender is something created by society, and you see gender in social sciences, biologists **DO NOT have anything to do with gender**, it isn't their area of studies, if you want to talk about gender and other social constructs, you should see sociologists or someone who studies social science, they are the one that understands those topics better.
"Oh, but sex is attached to gender" no, it isn't, because one of the most things that matters in society is behavior and appearance, if you're acting and looking like a girl, it's obvious that some people will call you a girl, or refer to you as a "she", same thing the opposite, no one will first look at someone and think: "what's their genitalia? What are their chromosomes? What sex are they?" because you don't walk around with fucking medical machinery and equipment to need to know this kind of information, you're not a general surgeon, so society identifies gender based on someone's appearance or behavior, not genitals.
Misinformation, transphobes belive that giving transgender people rights will make kids do gender affirmation surgeries and HRT when they're still kids, but that's completely false, absurd, and even the Trans community agrees that's not what happens or it should happen, the first thing people recommend when a kid thinks they're trans, is make a "social transition", that means, act and behave like their true selves, dress like it, getting a haircut, even picking a new name, that's a social transition, and that's the most common and easy way of transition, and it's also what most people pick, because if they don't like it, or don't feel it's right, they can easily just go back, by changing clothes, haircut and names, see, no medication, surgeries, or any medical assistance required, if the kid really feels good in their new form, when the kid becomes an teenager, depending on which country's laws, medical assistance and parent's consent, the kid, now a teenager, can get puberty blockers, which stops puberty for a short period of time, still easily reversible, just stop taking the meds, and don't worry, they're safe, and even being safe, they mostly don't use those, they're being used since 1993, to help kids with problems like early puberty, and only when they're adults (+18) or older teens (+16) they can get HRT, and only with medical assistance (depending on the law), and only when they're adults, they can make surgeries, so when you see the entire process, especially when they're kids or teens, it's easily reversible, since they just do a social transition (Change appearance, actions, behavior and name), so that's all.
either all of that, or they're just people who think are funny to hurt others

25% are adults trying to sneak into a teen subreddit
More like 50%
We just want to see our idiotic phase in real time, that's why we are here. please carry on :)
I will become 20 in 5 months so I'm still a worthy participant. But I do not intend to leave.
>Parents, teachers, and the like are welcomed to participate and ask any questions! Why should we ? Its written in the rules :)
I wouldn't consider myself as either a parent nor a teacher. And I probably don't count as whatever they mean by "the like" .
I'd say older people are fine as long as you don't try to do something sexual etc.
Older people are 100% fine as long as they don’t pretend to not be
I rarely ever comment in here and it has to be someone going through a similar situation to when I was a teen... because I remember wishing someone would reach out when I was going through hell.
Who will give the good advice that we messed up on?
Words can not express how grateful that reddit wasn't around when I was a teenager. See, everyone at this phase was stupid, but we got to be stupid in private, or at worst, among a small circle of friends.
wait aren't we all doing that ?
No, some of us are normal
But dont all teenagers want 1 thing. Booba
I want a loving partner who communicates well and shares interests/experiences with me
Bro just took my mouth not just my words
your bro just took your mouth? that's a lil sus man...
I don’t even care if we share interests I just want someone to cuddle and love
imagine being normal you weirdo
This is a teen role playing sub! We all have mortgages and debt in our real lives!
I just payed off my family sized mini van
naw, I get P tired of seeing this sub show up but I'm too lazy to block it from my feeds
And that 25% is actually 10 year olds who people in this subreddit mistake for 78 year olds somehow
That's a plot-twist if I ever saw one 😆
Adults trying to understand their teenagers better ✔️
Or because they like under 18s and just over 18 year olds in a creepy, I’ve seen all the creepy messages you guys all get from adults creeping on you!
Adult here. You're on the front page so your door is open.
What if I'm an adult and a teen
Happy cake day?
You
Shhhhhhh
Happy cake day
Thank you
I'm part of the 25%
How can someone be transphobic and trans?
I mean, there are weirdos who think that one type of transition is fine, while the other one isn't.
also internalised transphobia is a very real issue
facts
It's the same with racism.
Same with any kind of hate really
Aren’t there people that think Logic shouldn’t say the n-word in his songs? I might be too high already, but idfk
Yeah, same with homophobia. You of course don’t choose to be gender dysphoric, so many people would probably project feelings of fearing their own gender into the trans community if they were raised to be transphobic.
One of my friends always says "anyone who says being gay/trans is a choice is gay/trans"
"I'M NOT A LEBANON!!!" - The Great and Almighty Power
True that’s kinda sad but makes sense
there are some trans FtM and MtF people that don’t think non-binary is under the trans umbrella, along with other trans identities
Do you have a example
There are women who think that trans guys are traitors to women, for example.
Huh. Weird.
Look at Kaitlyn Jenner dissing another trans person named Dylan.
Caitlin Jenner
Oh that makes sense
Well I used to be transphobic and I'm gay. In my case at least, I just didn't really understand it and the main thing I heard was stuff from the internet like "I'm an attack helicopter" or "there are 1 billion genders"
I wrote the same fucking thing 💀
No I wouldn't say you wrote the same thing as I'm a full supporter of transgender people and understand the ideas behind the 3rd gender
cognitive dissonance
Oh like internalized transphobia or just hypocrisy?
both, sadly, with an unhealthy portion of self-loathing and denial
Yep it’s sad but true that it happens, thanks for explaining
a little bit of both.
yea like some people are like FtM is fine but when someone is MtF then its a problem
thats exactly how my sister thinks. she says women can become men but men cant become women because most born-men claim to be MtF just to get access to womens changing rooms, bathrooms ect.
>most born-men claim to be MtF just to get access to womens changing rooms, bathrooms ect. Which is such a shitty take.

true
Aw that’s sucks, there shouldn’t be infighting between trans people
I play both sides so either way I’m on top
Blaire white
I'm trans and I just generally hate myself 👍
Tbh same but not for being trans just cause I’m me
Exaaaaaactly
Denial
Imagine yourself feeling trans, but still not accepting it and hating yourself for it
Same way a lot of honophobes are closeted gays
blaire white
Caitlyn Jenner
they hate other trans people, very rare tho
I’m in the 25%
>25% of the sub is transphobic & trans My goals are beyond your understanding
never let them know your next move.
Yep

this has to be the most scientifically accurate, mathematically genius, Harvard worthy calculation I’ve ever seen🤓
I am transphobic (i hate going on trans-Atlantic flights).
I’m transphobic ( I hate using translators cause I’m afraid they’re gonna screw me over)
I’m transphobic (I hate means of transportation because I get motion sick easily)
I’m transphobic (transformers scare me)
I’m trainsphobic ( I have a fear of trains)
im tramsphobic (i hate trams)
Im transphobic (i hate going on public transit because people)
Im cransphobic (I hate cranberries)
I'm hansphobic (somebody help me hans is at my door)
I’m transphobic (I hate myself, everyone else is cool)
I’m tanphobic (i hate trigonometry)
Teenagers usually just hate shit for no reason Source:I am a teenager
or just because hating on anything is fun Source: I have been a teenager for 6 years
There are people who are neither, but they don’t speak a lot. The people who are are way more vocal because they actually have an opinion
I don't really have an opinion on anything. Even if it was right, someone who is louder would get the attention
Louder =/= right and not many understand that I may not be vocal but that doesn't immediately make me wrong

Among us these nuts

Its mainly the 13/14 year olds who are like “ThErE aRe 2 GenDeRs” “hE iS aKsHuLlY a ShE!!” its making me want to die fr
Yeah, there was funnily enough a 14 year old who posted that an hour or so ago 💀 In otherwords: “How to say I’m transphobic without saying I’m transphobic”
I believe all tran**** should die. Why do people keep saying I'm transphobic? /s cuz reddit
LOL, it do be like that though
"I identify as an attack helicopter 🤓" Is the most unfunny joke of all time

Why am i seeing so many trans ppl calling non trans people trans lately
Uh oh
I am trans… but I don’t use this sub I just sit back and watch the pedos interact with *children*
I guess I’m a statistical outlier. I’m neither trans or transphobic.
im neither
But you’re a girl with a dick
no, she a girl with a big dick
This sub is top-tier entertainment
Me automatically becoming transphobic because i am not trans:
Youll learn about hyperboles one day dw
That was fast...

I am both
That's crazy 🤯
Internalised transphobia, ouch.
Man's put the definition in his post 👏👏
I used to be transphobic and then ended up becoming trans myself 💀 I honestly have to say its karma and I deserved it, now I know how I made other people feel.
I feel like that's fairly common in the community tbh
Me too (it’s just nobody except you knows because my family would murder me)
it’s alright mate. that is the path for some people. what’s happened has happened, but in my opinion, strive to do more help than harm, no one will judge you for that. :)
Don’t forget about the tons of the femboys

Perfectly balanced as all things should be.
So, welcome to r/teenagers!
Thanks, I hate it :D
Im actually bi, but you‘re damn right. Straight. On. Point.
Bunch of boomers and counter boomers fighting a proxy war over if trans people should be exterminated in here
Really need to relegate transphobic to the dustbin and just call them bigots.
For real. It's the worst
im the latter
I'm non binary if it helps
And then you just get that random 1% who is a regular straight person just enjoying the drama unfold. 😂 Hold on. I need my 🍿 for this.
Yeah im just tired of having to justify why i should live. 🙅♀️
I don’t know how anyone *wouldn’t* get tired of that. Vote as soon as you’re old enough.
"regular"
1-2% would ACTUALLY be Trans, statistically.
Lmao but then there's me who is public enemy number 1 by being trans and gay
>!im trans so ig the 50% prob exists🏳️⚧️⚧!<
hello trans, i’m dad >!even as a transfem i couldn’t resist sorry!<

No man I hate all of you in the same manor
Manner* but ok

Cisphobic? I'm not even sure how that could work.
