    I know you’re probably not intending this but biological <gender> is so damn transphobic. I’m biologically a trans women. I was born this way.

      Sorry! I really don’t know how to properly express these things correctly. This is the first time I’m seeing it discussed in that way though.

        Ah sorry no It’s okay I can tell you have good intentions. Gender is a hard thing to talk about because of how multifaceted it is.

        Like what I think you meant is finding out that person they are attracted to is a women with a penis. They then experiance internalized transphobia causing them to think they have been deceived into being attracted to a man or ‘biological male’ as penises are strongly associated with men by our societies constructed gender binary. When in reality many women have penises. Just as many men have vulva.
