Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
Thanks Rusty, I really appreciate your time in writing this response. I’d like to know if it is one person, not who it is and If you can do anything about telling them to stop. It’s been going on since we all first started posting here and you’d be well aware of the lack of downvoting. But, I understand it’s not simple as you’ve pointed out and I’m sure it’s not really worth someone’s time in the grand scheme of admin of this forum. I just wish if all my transition updates were making someone uncomfortable they’d say so. Or if someone was transphobic they’d just go right ahead and say so. I accept that those people exist. I don’t think they’re entitled to an opinion on scientific facts but others see things differently. How I behave here and in the real world are different as well. We all have guidelines here we must adhere to. People questioning their gender and finding it difficult for example may find my generally very positive experiences with it challenging. I’ve encountered that a bit actually. Its easy to rush to the must be a transphobic loser scenario, but I’m across a lot of trans issues as well. Envy is real as well all just want to find some happiness and if others are having it seemingly better is can cause an amount of jealousy.
So look, for now, I’ll bear it. It’s my choice to stay if I choose and you’ve answered my questions, so thanks heaps! Thank heck we have good mods here.
