Transphobic? Not even close. Why is it that every time someone says something that disagrees in any way with with the LGBT community, the offender is automatically an "x"-phobic? Do you people even know what it means to be a phobic of something? It's a crippling fear that millions struggle to deal with every day of their lives. By tossing around that term so casually, you are demeaning and making light of those who actually have a phobia. You make them seem like they and the condition they live with are insignificant. They are just as important as all the gay/transgender people. You want to talk about taking people seriously? Check your privilege.

I hate hearing I'm homophobic. Not one fagg could scare me

Because the lgbt feel so insignificant about themselves they need to call attention to themselves no matter the slight. Talk about needing a thicker skin
-
The reason you think that the LGBT community needs thicker skin is because those of us that have it (being gay myself) are just laughing at the joke, bot bitch in about it. Seriously though I was laughing so hard I nearly pissed myself.

The whole world could use thicker skin, tbh

Where's the standing ovation button on my keyboard!

That is an extremely valid point that I missed as I centered on the intentional misuse of phobia. well done. It is completely demeaning to agoraphobics
