This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

We've always been trans-inclusive.

I genuinely wonder whether generation of people who played female avatars in MMOs to get free stuff has put the seed of TERFdom and assorted other anti-trans stereotypes into a generation of people's brains.

Nah. transpanic jokes are way older then that. The reveal at the end of the first Ace Ventura movie is an example of that. Good thing the second movie is way better.

If anything, guys playing as girls in MMOs would have softened the idea of trans people to a lot of people who would have never thought much about it.

For whatever reason, I always remembered that being in the second film and not the first; I haven't seen either since childhood, though, so they both just kind of blend together.
