If you are looking for a more secure and safe trans space, we suggest you visit https://hexbear.net/c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns. While we will try our best, lemmy.ml/c/transgender is far more open to the fediverse, and also to trolls. One of the site admins of lemmy.ml, nutomic, is also a transphobe, while hexbear is ran mostly by trans people and has a very active trans community.

Look at all those states. If you live there you live in a shithole.

This is a pretty good map of states that I'd like to avoid. Too bad NH is orange though, New England is so close.

We know. A lot of us are stuck in these shitholes through no fault of our own and are doing our best.

Yeah. With insecure blokes.

I'm straight (never been gay), but here in Australia these are the same guys who think the car you drive affects whether you're gay or not.

Which unfortunately means they must keep up with the latest fashionable trends to remain straight and masculine.

The hilarious thing is that the biggest badasses I've met (who do rock climbing and high altitude mountaineering) never seem to care about the car they drive. In fact, a lot of their cars would inherently be classed as LGBTIQ. They might even be surprised to know one of the most masculine people I know is gay 😂

Also, they regularly cause issues in my hiking group too.. but if you ask them if they want to take over guiding, they never will.

Y'all are all welcome in Australia. The Rock climbing community here is actually very lgbtiq friendly

And it would be great if we could get less toxic people here

Lmao. One of my favorite cars I've had is a lesbian coded thing, apparently. Its hilarious.
