Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Not sure what to make of it but I really hope the point with "you're not an cis ally if not 90% of your friends are trans" is a joke. Otherwise it is such a bullshit take that shits on everyone who supports trans rights but does not have trans friends?
Edit: Now also got that part of the joke, my bad.
Its a joke.
Is it funny? I just find myself confused.
I consider everyone an ally by default. It's just another aspect of the social contract we're all a part of. Love and accept others. You're only out once you break the contract, and you can always get back in by learning to love and trying to make it right with those who were wronged.
Not... Always... The "you can always come back" thing is not something that you can always count on. Being wholly rejected for trying to be your authentic self can leave some wicked deep scars. It's always on the wronged person to forgive when there's a lot of pressure to accept someone back into the fold. It can destroy you when everyone around you just wants to forget what happened in favor of social peace when you have to carry that damage with you. Coming out as trans historically is a lot of people's last ditch effort to live in that they feel they the status quo is killing them. Sometimes they also look at being openly trans as the last resort failure state but are desperate to find any reason to go on even if the tradeoffs are horrible.
The kicks you receieve when you are at your lowest point you never really forget. Sometimes "trying to make it right with the wronged" means accepting you hurt someone bad enough that you don't get second chances to try again and having to respect that.
Yes, it's a bad take; what's actually demonstrated here though is that you are likely to make friends that you have stuff in common with.
Yeah got that and now I also got the point of the joke with the 90%, my bad.
What happened?
She discovered she was trans. Note that the friend was referred to as "he" in the first post, then the second post was "...what happened to her." Additionally, 90% of her friends were apparently trans already because she gravitated to them because either consciously or subconsciously she recognized their common experience.
because he is literally only friends with..
what happened to her
You won't believe it anyway

I need a translator at this point. What is even being said?
Apparently the Republicans are right because he became a she.
I bet she even plants trees and shit like that now too. Maybe even walks to work sometimes.
Republicans are right
They certainly aren’t left that’s for sure.
This happened to me. Anyone else?
