    WTF!? Her answer to white supremacist terrorists, which she herself is connected to, as she espouses to that bullshit, is to make up some hateful fake category of terrorists involving trans people? I guess I can't say I'm surprised, but damn there was a time where if a government official said something like that, they'd be forced to resign/ be held responsible.

    In El Paso, a 17 year old transgender high school student was attacked by a group of men while leaving the library where she had gone to do her homework.
    In Arlington, Texas, a minister called for death penalty for LGBTQ people.
    The rumor the Uvalde killer was transgender has been thoroughly debunked and most on the right have quietly (and without apology natch) taken down posts describing him as such. Exception is Hitler admirer Candace Owens, who had doubled down on her claim the killer was trans and therefore no LGBTQ person should have civil rights.
    When straight white Christian men commit mass murder they are just called mentally ill even if they weren't. No one says straight white Christian men shouldn't have civil rights.

    That's such a whackadoodle mindset.

    Even if the shooter WAS trans, why should that effect anyone else who is also trans?

    When on a commercial airplane, if, say, there were three attendents, and two of them were cis female, I'd want the third attendent to be a cis female, as opposed to a male (EDITED) trans. I'd feel a bit more safe. It's apparent to me that there are too many potentially unruly passengers on flights these days.

    So wait, do we have major biological advantages over cis women in strength, size, and stamina or not?

    Do you think you do?

    What I actually meant was a trans male. A trans female is a different story.

    outgroup homogeneity, a psychological concept where someone assigns traits from one person to the entirety of the group that person belongs to. It's a logical fallacy we all fall prey to, like how I don't trust any cis people despite only 20% of them actually wanting me dead.

    Or if it's an all-female flight crew and someone is hurting them you could do this thing called.... help.

    Even if it's an all-male flight crew and a passenger is getting violent you can still help.

    But sure, somehow this means we should do a package check on flight attendants so ABM can feel safe.

    In and of itself, you just did. But, hey, no problem.

    You can do whatever you'd like, I'm speaking for myself.

    What the fuck does that story have to do with being transgender?

    Oh yeah, I don't feel guilty about doing it... though I am not in the traditionally targeted subgroups of trans people (trans men, trans women of color, smaller trans people of any gender etc.)... you get enough lifted F-150's in the same parking lot and my ass is staying in the car.

    Trying to figure that out myself. He'd feel safer if a fight broke on a plane if all the attendants gender matched their anatomy?

    Absolutely. Why do you ask? I want to feel safe when I fly. Some onboard braun sounds a bit more settling to me.
