Reckon I'll do a micro thread about ways homophobia is directed at trans men. 1. As below, anti-femme attitudes target trans men who don't present masc. 2. Anti-lesbian attitudes among trans men make it hard for edge cases or those w/ a lesbian history to feel accepted.https://twitter.com/e_urq/status/1366732998285156356 …

i'm trans masc and femme. an avatar that reads as a gay man in makeup cishet men will immediately start w/homophobic attacks. honestly, i think the problem of visibility is that most of us get read as amab trans fem. i know i do.

Oh yeah, this is a big thing- trans men being targeted/attacked because we're mistaken for trans women... I left it out bc it's definitely transphobia more so than homophobia... except to the extent that "being femme in public" is homophobia too.
