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.

A lot of the 4chan-esque toxicity around trans people is some mix of taboo horniness and misogynist commoditization of femininity.

I don't think either encourage trans-inclusiveness. The very term "Trap" implies trans people are attempting to exploit other people through their presentation.

I've always thought of "Trap" as cross dressing with malicious intent. Not term to describe trans people, but it's not something I consider a hill worth dying on.

My idea is that "cross dressing" MMO players are just seeding the idea gender non-conformity into the player base's mind. Not that they're pro-trans activists.
