      I want to believe that people's hatred can diminish if only they knew real trans people in their lives.

      But some of the people I'd known the longest and loved me the most came to hate me when I came out.

      So if those odds can't be overcome, how can I expect it of a stranger?

      Maybe some people's hate can be diminished by popping their bubble. But what do we do for those who don't have a bubble?

      How do you speak to someone whose hate isn't a function of their isolation?

          I don't know but we can't sit quiet. The quieter we are, the more they think their hate is okay. Knowing the root of their hate might help.

          i think that people who desert trans folks still don't actually know trans folks. they're choosing to stay in their isolation by dumping us.

          the only way out for those people is to meet a trans person /they don't realize is trans/, get to know them, and /then/ learn abt transness.

          because a trans person pretending to be cis isn't really a learning experience for the cis person -- nobody is living their transness there.

          If someone's hate is not a function of isolation/ignorance/fear, perhaps it's innate, in which case engaging at all is depressingly futile

          I'm not sure you can. Just try to outlive them.

          Sometimes you can't change a specific person's mind. Instead, I think about living my life as an example to others.

          All hatred is self-hatred. All hatred stems from envy, and with trans it comes from people too wedded to yesterday's gender rules.
