T*rfs who come into our mentions demanding we define transphobia for them will get precisely as much explanation as they deserve, i.e. immediately blocked.

We do not owe you a fair hearing. We know all too well the terms on which you enter this 'debate' and what your ultimate objective is. We're not interested. There's no discussion to be had. Just go away.

We're not interested in being an account that talks about this as much as we're forced to by the constant assault on the dignity and safety of trans lives that is the British media. We would like to provide a space that is about acceptance and joy for queer people of all stripes.

That is what we do and that is not something we're willing to debate with anyone. There's no need for us to engage in bad-faith arguments with bigots, and certainly no need for us to tell bigots why they're bigots and hear their excuses for their bigotry.

This is not an account for seeking out the worst people on this hellsite and holding them up for you to see. We will speak to you *about* the world's ugliness, but it's not our remit to hold it up in front of you for you to see for yourself how ugly it is. You know already.

Every British trans person knows all too well about the undiluted venom that comes from the ostensibly left-wing press in this country. Proving them wrong serves no purpose when their wrongness is so thoroughly self-evident, so we don't bother. We just block.

We're non-binary. Many of our dearest friends On Here are also non-binary or some other variety of gender non-conforming. Supporting us means supporting trans people and vice versa. If you're not okay with that, you should unfollow us.
