    First of all, it’s not just transphobia, it’s also misogyny. A [character modelled after a] woman is being questioned on her features not being feminine enough. The fact that the “criticism” isn’t as crass as “she needs bigger tits” doesn’t change how misogynistic that is.

    Also, Jesus fucking Christ what is this analysis? I haven’t ever seen most of these words. I’m not even going to look them up, not a single birthday person cares!

    I checked this person for a few seconds, I have no idea what they are, they seem to have deleted this tweet, but still posted more about how “the shapes are wrong.” Absolute insanity.

      I find this to generally be true. Most transphobia seems rooted in two ideas: “a man would want to be a woman?!” or “how dare a woman want to be a man!” The transphobia is itself an extension of misogyny.
