Can you imagine what it’s like

This got on a lot of people’s nerves today:

Ryan John Butcher

ATTENTION CISGENDER PEOPLE.

Can you imagine what it’s like leaving your home in constant fear of assault, harassment and ridicule? This is what trans people experience every day of their lives. Help our trans siblings. Read this thread and share, please.

Says clueless dude to “CISGENDER PEOPLE” which of course includes women, who don’t need to “imagine” what it’s like leaving your home in constant fear of assault, harassment and ridicule, since that’s their daily reality during at least some part of their lives. If they’re mouthy and opinionated, it’s full time all their lives.

    Some of the replies are classics (both as in funny or terribly sad tales of abuse). Butcher remains steadfastly clueless and dismissive of women’s lived experience. Self-entitled cool-as woke fuck wit or, true misogynist?

    Cool-as woke fuck wit? Or cool-as fuck woke wit? Or cool as fuck fuck wit?

    Probably all three.

    I believe the term “asshole” transcends sex and gender. And it fits Mr. Butcher perfectly.

    What y’all don t seem to get is that trans people are people…women are not.
