I am obviously not one to disregard all "inter-community" criticism as like, "online infighting" or whatever (particularly with regards to misogyny, feminism, etc.), but there is a point where I think people need to realize that people who are The Other Kind Of Trans are not actually Accepted By The Mainstream or Monopolizing All The Attention or whatever. There is a point at which claiming that either transfemininity or transmasculinity is Accepted or Normalized by mainstream society (not people on Tumblr, not people hosting Queer Sex Parties, yknow, actual mainstream cisgender society that dictates big stuff like whether or not trans people can legally exist) becomes, to me, obviously a little overblown if not completely constructed. Often it's just getting lost in the weeds. I don't think vividly imagining trans people you consider "other" from yourself being secretly actually More Accepted is a particularly useful thing to do
