I think it has been reclaimed by the community, though I'm doubtful that the old man with a MAGA hat who called me a dyke is aware of that or using it in that kind of way (yes he was literally wearing a MAGA hat).

I know that it's an awful and homophobic slur but it made me feel weirdly validated to be called a slur that's usually only used on women (lesbians). I don't know, it's weird. Part of me is upset that they called me a homophobic slur but a part of me is also euphoric for being referred to, even indirectly as a woman. Does anyone else relate to this experience?

(By the way I'm a transfem lesbian.)

I heard that. I noticed a tiny bit of soreness occasionally but I'm not sure if it's because I slept weird or if it's working.

Yup they're your typical transphobic bigot who's mad that someone actually stands up against them and won't tolerate them. It's important to challenge these types of people so that the mask can slip off and they reveal themselves for who they really are.

I have nothing against Transgenders

Yet you choose to use deliberately dehumanizing language to describe us... Interesting.

Remember kids, when people hate on Blahaj and other Trans safe spaces, there is always a deeper reason. It's either lack of understanding of the trans experience, or outright bigotry and disdain for those who protect trans and queer people.

I'm little more than a month into HRT, it feels like forever though. Sometimes I wonder if it's even working. I get my blood tested so I know my estrogen levels are good, but damn it just takes forever 😢

I wouldn't describe it as authoritarian. That implies unjust use of authority. Their harshness towards transphobes is justified and necessary, because transphobes are an existential threat towards trans people, and queer people as a whole. It's not authoritarian, it's protective.
