im a right wing transphobe and im catching feelings for my left leaning trans friend
ive been a transphobe for years but when we became friends and the more we talked together ive felt really close and I enjoy my time with her. almost all of my transphobic thoughts are gone now. im scared of the ideology I had for years being wrong, and what my transphobic friends will think.
im also scared she'll get mad and block me if she finds out im right wing or if she finds out about my friends.
she makes me really happy and i've fallen asleep hugging my pillow before wishing it was her.

serious thread, what am I supposed to do?

t. cis straight male

Maybe your feelings are more important than debates over governmental policy. No really. She'll probably feel the same way too. Just don't go full power level, you know.
>>
>>44413683
You are just going to have to make a choice. Your current friends or her. It is what it is. You can always make new friends and you can always develop feelings for a new girl.

I'm obviously biased as a left leaning trans woman, so I won't advise you which path to choose directly. But I am going to say that sometimes you have to make a choice. You can't always have both, and if you try to get both your friend's approval and her love, you won't get both and you may lose both.

Be true to what you believe.

That's about as much as I can say without letting my obvious bias get involved. Good luck choosing.
>>
>>44413708
That's nice in the abstract, but given the government's current stance on trans people it's not how things are most likely to go.
>>
>>44413683
Your political leanings will literally hurt her. I'm biased, but I'd hope you'd give those up before her. Maybe if your mind was changed on this, it's worth reevaluating some other things, too
>>
>>44413683
THIS IS SO CUTE. Tell her you're in love. Love her, let your hate leave your heart and fill it with thoughts of holding her and kissing her.
>>
>>44413683
Idk, I’m a tranny and I don’t mind guys being right wing at all. I don’t think that’s a dealbreaker unless she’s like super lefty and politically invested?
>>
>>44413683
>what am I supposed to do?
Let love conquer all, anon. Tell her how you feel about her and that it's making you change who you are for the better. Don't be afraid.
>>
>>44413747
yeah I am in the USA so left vs right is at its peak right now and centrism is completely dead. she probably wont like it if I said I was right wing (which is fair enough)

>>44413734
>You can always make new friends and you can always develop feelings for a new girl.
not really. people are really anti social
>if you try to get both your friend's approval and her love, you won't get both and you may lose both.
I would prefer her love over my friends I just dont know if she loves me back. she might have given me hints before but I dont know if its her being nice or actual hints. after getting to know her I feel like my friend group's ideology is wrong I dont want to lose both and end up having a completely empty social life with no friends and no girlfriend. but im fine with friends and no girlfriend or no friends and girlfriend

>>44413816
I know thats why I want to try cutting off association with the right if I know she likes me back. but I feel like im in an awkward situation where I still have mostly right wing beliefs except after knowing her I realize homo and transphobia isnt correct. so I dont know what my political leaning is supposed to be now

>>44413828
I want to but not yet maybe when I feel more confident that she actually likes me back. I want her to confess first but girls never do that

>>44413844
I dont think shes a radical leftist but still left leaning and she told me about her dislike of the rising transphobia and the current administration. she also wishes trans health care was free and it feels inhumane that she has to pay to fix her gender dysphoria. shes pro america though. we celebrated 4th of july together

I never really told her about my opinions (for obvious reasons) I think she sees me as not being interested in politics

>>44414213
maybe she would like me more if I admitted she changed my political views? it might show how much I really love her
>>
>>44413683
its scary to learn that you could have been wrong, but in my experience that fear is a good sign you are on the right track. but its still true that you cant change how you used to be, and if she finds out you were that way, i cant fault her for being afraid. all you can do is accept the consequences of what you did before and change the way you are now, i guess.
if i were in her place, the most important thing to me is that you are thinking about it carefully. for me, a guy who decided “im not transphobic anymore!” one day and never thought about it again is no good compared to a guy who is not sure but keeps learning and considering it. whatever you decide to do, dont push down any of these thoughts and feelings, even though its uncomfortable. i hope you take it seriously and come to an honest conclusion
>>
>>44414333
Tbh I’m very far right and I agree on the healthcare stuff, I think like surgeries should be much cheaper covered by insurance for dysphoric trannies. I think that is something that is inherent with trannies bc we’ve been through it and know how shitty it can be.
>>
>>44413683
why are you right wing?
are you the insecure about your small penis right wing or the love hierarchy and being told what to do right wing?
>>
Your political opinions are not wrong, deep down she agrees with them.
>>
>>44413683
Right wingers are all pathetic goyslaves now anyway, I would drop that for a trans gf easy peasy
>>
>>44413683
this is like every tranny's fantasy though
like if you're actually a guy and not just tranny larp, just flirt with her more and she's already probably into you
>>
>>44414376
>the most important thing to me is that you are thinking about it carefully.
yeah it would be disingenuous if I changed my views just because I like her, she probably wouldn't like that either. she has really managed to remove most of my distaste for trans people though. /pol/ and all the other media's say they're mentally ill and gross but shes been a regular nice person to me which made me realize most of that might be false. I dont know yet, I want to try meeting more trans people to really get the full picture but at least for her I dont feel any transphobia.

>>44414393
the more I think about it, she might be right wing. lots of right wingers dont like the current administration very much and there are some that arent transphobic. I might ask her. im probably overthinking this whole thing though. its really unlikely that we actually disagree on so much it warrants cutting ties. she also doesnt seem like the type of person who would cut ties over different views.

>>44414562
im the occasionally browses /pol/ and voted for trump in 2024. tbdesu I regret my vote. he loves israel too much. but ice is good

>>44414727
im serious and this is my first time on this board
>>
>>44414376
Not OP, but you've got the wrong idea and it's likely keeping you stuck.

Fundamentally, you have to be certain about SOMETHING in life. Even the act of holding to your principle, that one should try to maximize uncertainty, requires certainty. To condemn yourself for being too gullible in the past is self-defeating, because then you have to distrust your own judgement of condemnation now. There's no particular reason you'd suddenly be objectively correct now.

The fact is that it's okay to be wrong due to having been devieved, even if it hurts yourself and other people. If it weren't okay, then it's not okay for you to believe anything currently.
>>
>>44413683
Right wing, eh? So you can't be happy unless there are people grovelling in poverty and exclusion? You need to be forcefemmed immediately sir.
>>
>>44415087
You seem based anon I hope it works out, I have issues with some trans stuff but especially recently it’s been a distraction from real issues like demographic change and israel.

hug and kiss her and love her until the end of time. Hold her and keep her warm and make sure she never spends a night alone.
>>
GO TO HER
>>
>>44413683
chuds are live, walking, smelly, skidmarks of society. why do you care about their thoughts and feelings and not the tranny
>>
>>44416789
additionally trannies must be protected and kept safe from said chuddies
>>
thanks for your advice anons. ive lurked on a ton of boards but never this one and unexpectedly you've been nice. I will hang out with her more until I feel comfortable enough to confess my love to her

I don't know if the other things said about transgender is true like if they smell and have repulsive bodies. when we hang out I can tell she cares about her appearance and the good cologne is noticed but I havent seen her nude yet. she dresses very modest. I can only know if those things are true or not if we get into a relationship and be more intimate

>>44415242
politics are a lot more popular then they used to be so I suggest focusing on your own issues first and putting politics second, the trump admistration are definitely aware of everybody's complaints at this point kek. I see protests almost once a week now. there are people that make a living just off running political X accounts

>>44415544
thats the goal
>>
>>44418673
desperately praying that this 4chan chud gets his trans girlfriend
>>
>>44413683
take note transwomen of this board: they can be fixed if you show just a bit of empathy and act nice (a lot of em are like this because isolation does crazy shit to your mind)
>>
>>44418933
Remember women: it's your job to fix men!
>>
>>44419254
this but unironically i hope I can find my own misguided boy who's kinda chudded to kiss and squeeze until he softens up
>>
>>44419369
Nothing wrong with choosing to do it, telling others to do it is a foux pas though.

Part of the issue is how often women are told that they have to accept bad men and try to fix them. It's basically integrated into the "woman" social role.
