I have a question for you Trans Individuals. Why do trans people (especially MtFs it seems,) put trans flags in their username and profile picture and everywhere they can if the point of transitioning is to be recognized and accepted as the opposite gender?
Why are you "Lilith (She/Her) [Trans Flag]" with a blue-white-pink background?
Why aren't you just "Emma" or something?
Covering your profile with trans indicators is literally just putting a bunch of blaring sirens on your house asking people to come over and say you'll never be a real woman.
Meanwhile if you just had a more cis-coded female profile, instead you'd just be farming reply guys validating you because online men easily get their brain boiled from any attention from a female, it will even be some of the same guys who would otherwise be calling you a tranny.

being a tranny is something they use to make up for their lack of personality/identity
>>
>>44073855
The average moid that salivates at cisfoid attention is the type of monkey that would fly into blood boiling rage if they were to find out you're trans.

>signal that you're a tranny
>"why do they make it their whole personality??"
>"Ah I see, a tranny. Better tell them to kill themselves."
>don't signal that you're a tranny
>"erm, why are you not constantly doing PR and advocacy 24/7 for The Cause?"
>"NOOOO this is RAPE send this tranny to MEN's prison for 6700 years!!"
there is no salvation.
>>
it's about passing irl idgaf about passing on twitter dot com for reply guys to appear. and i talk about being a tranny anyway
>>
I'm still only like 90.1% sure about myself and haven't changed any of my profiles yet or whatever but when you go your entire life without a real sense of self and suddenly find that missing piece of the puzzle that seems to fit exactly, you should be allowed to celebrate that I think. It also helps signalling to any eggs out there that they're not alone. There's the activistic part of it, especially with what's going on in some countries right now.
that and straight guys can be kinda creepy

not that I really engage in a lot of trans discourse because most of what I see is hate and that makes me feel sad and I'm not trans no sir I'm a manly man

It’s sorta a result of tumblr culture leaking onto twitter along with bios that include every psych diagnosis somebody has ever had and their triggers (ie. say this to upset me). Some people just don’t know the value of even the smallest amount of anonymity, like I post my face on twitter and still keep my bio and username from mentioning I’m trans because I know people look for anything to latch onto when trying to own somebody online.

It's autism.
It's lack of awareness and the straight forward feeling of community and recognition that comes with the autism.

There's a reason there's like some absurdly high comorbidity of autism and transgenderism, it's like a 30% higher chance.

It's this simple - if you decide to attempt to make it more complex and dig deeper into some kind of social desires or meanings it ends up circling back to autism causing those things anyway.

I only use flags on this website.

>>44073855
well you don't see the people who don't do that shit so it seems like all trans people are like that

I never put tranny flags in my pfp. that's some sneedhon/reddithon agp shit. I'm not proud to be trans, unfortunately Its just what I am and I'm not going to be open about it.
>>
>>44074041

>>44074041
Pitiful.

>>
>>44074073
what is up with this board today?? why are you all so pissed off and mean? :(
>>
>>44073855
Transitioning takes a lot of time and effort. Anything like that becomes part of who you are, and people are going to want to express it - their frustrations, pride in their wins, sorrow at their losses... its just how people are.
>>
>>44074041
okay so take off your flag on 4chan too then
>>
>>44073855
If I don't make it obvious I'm trans I get the stupidest fucking moids on the face of this earth trying to chat me up
>>
>>44073855
if MtTs ever accidentally pass they’ll be perceived as women, which will both give them social dysphoria as they all primarily identify as men, and cause a momentary distressing loss of male privilege.
So they need to constantly signal that they are special men and need to be treated as special men, not as women.

This is only true for newly out trans people who need to live out their new coming of age cycle in fast motion to catch up.
Much like being a man or a woman should not dominate your thoughts because it is mundane and instead the incidentals around it become your identity, if you truly are allowed to settle into your identity in the way of being trans or gay, it should only exist as a shadow source of everything downhill of it. Of course thats difficult in most areas of the world

>>44074112
kill yourself. Fucking dickheads.

>>44074141

>>”erm, why are you not constantly doing PR and advocacy 24/7 for The Cause?"
This never happened
>>
>>44074155
Being gay will never be incidental. It changes too much about how your life is lived to just be ignored, even if thats your goal straightoids wont relate
>>
>>44074350
It's not about it being ignored. Like I said, everything will be downhill of it and that's where your habits, desires, skills etc get colored by it, but taking or wanting dick isn't an identity. That doesn't mean it doesn't shade it, the same way being a man or a woman ends up absolutely having common traits due to socialization. I'm just making a point angled at what OP was saying, which is indexing extremely heavily on one thing as your identity
