Who passes better? Troons or pooners?
Honestly, I have to say the women dressed as men do "pass" slightly better as in the hormones seem to do more. I'm guessing that's because it's easier to
grow more hair than
lose more hair (beards, body hair, etc.) and it's easier to make a voice deeper than higher (without sounding weird). Even without trans stuff, women impersonating men is often slightly more convincing than men imitating women (like in old films or theatre), but only slightly.
Regardless, neither gender truly passes outside of photoshopped selfies. We can still tell what you are.
you have broken the trust of every student by denying your biological reality,
Reminds me of an earlier post where a kid broke down crying in the street because he saw a trans "woman" and said it was a man, then his mom denied the reality. This boy is being lied to by people he's supposed to trust (teachers, parents, every adult who is supposed to uphold the truth) and it makes the child begin to wonder if there is something wrong with THEM. "If the entire world claims this man in a dress is a woman, maybe I am the one who is insane."
This pooner teacher handled this the worst way possible. She should have either not responded at all, or proved that she's not autistic by having a sense of humor about it, or some other creative response. She absolutely positively should not have gone whining to the principal, and had him removed from class.
Agreed. Your job as an adult/teacher is to remain level headed and focus on preventing the students from harming
each other. Kids are going to insult you even if you
don't have a mental illness, so you just have to remember it's not personal and they'll often grow out of it. This teacher is acting more childish than his/her students.
When a
man pretending to be a woman says he doesn't feel safe in a facility with men, he should be listened to and accommodated.
When a
woman pretending to be a man says she doesn't feel safe in a facility with men, she should be listened to and accommodated.
When a
woman says she doesn't feel safe in a facility with men, she's being pathetic and transphobic.
Makes sense.
"bc most of them are gay… they try to be overly masculine to hide the fact that they’re just gay deep down
"
So gay men can't be masculine now? Not even the gays are safe from the strict trans standards of masculinity/femininity.
