"One thing that frustrates me about having to deal with transphobia is that there are soooo many cool philosophical conversations I want to have about the nature of gender and concisouness and more but I keep having to talk about to misinformation and misconceptions." -- Jessie Earl (jessiegender), 2021-08-30

This reminds me of another quote about another bigotry:

"The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no language and you spend twenty years proving that you do. Somebody says your head isn't shaped properly so you have scientists working on the fact that it is. Somebody says you have no art, so you dredge that up. Somebody says you have no kingdoms, so you dredge that up. None of this is necessary. There will always be one more thing." -- Toni Morrison (b. 1931-02-18, d. 2019-08-05), "A Humanist View", 1975-05-30
