#because when i don't mention being trans i get matches and replies etc

[clippy]

thinking about that dating poll and remembering how when I got fucking dog piled on Twitter by a bunch of transphobes accusing me & other gay trans men of transitioning "just so we could date [cis] gay men" as if 1) that isn't part of the point (but they're of course meaning it as if we are fetishizing cis gay men) and 2) being a gay trans man doesn't immediately cut our dating pool down to extremely low levels because if trying to date while gay wasnt hard enough, try adding being trans on top of it when cis gays are notoriously transphobic
