Well there’s a lot of people who blame society’s problems on queer people. Scapegoating a minority is a good way to distract people from systemic problems. The church has engaged in systemic protection of priests who abuse children, so let’s redirect the legitimate anger at kids being hurt at some other group.

Concerned about how your real inflation adjusted wages haven’t gone up since the 1970’s? Blame immigrants and Jewish bankers as opposed to central banks and the monetary system.

Often the most extreme homophobic and transphobic attacks come from people who are themselves queer and hate that part of themselves. So they lash out at others who aren’t self-hating and try and prove their straightness to themselves and others.

Look. If you’re happy with your gender then enjoy it. If you find yourself attracted to the people society says you are supposed to be attracted to, then that’s awesome. You’ve avoided a lot of unnecessary trauma.
