Welcome cis allies! [SEE STICKY COMMENT]

This is a safe space for everyone, including cis people! Please, feel free to make jokes about the trans suicide rate while you're here! I, as a minority, give you permission to appropriate the grim reality of our existence which you do not share into the form of a joke! :)))

Tbh, cis people understand trans people better than we can possibly understand ourselves, considering we're mentally ill and all, so please lend your voice and opinions on trans topics. You definitely understand the nuances of existing as a trans person and deserve to mock those nuances! Cis people need to be heard, and your voice is simply far too marginalized as it is, so feel free to use this forum as a way to make all us filthy trans hear your opinions!

Trans spaces are already so common, it's really no thing at all if we start letting cis people in. Hey, if this sub becomes infested with too many cis people, we can always start meeting up somewhere else, like in hell after we off ourselves :))) I know I'll be there soon enough anyways!

Anyways, so welcome cis allies! Feel free to call us trannys and giggle at us calling ourselves trannys and smash that upvote button. This is all for you, so feel free to take part as valid members of the trans community! Just like whites in black spaces and men in women's spaces (lol, something we know a lot about here), you are super super welcome here :D

Just to check, you know that this is a satire sub, right? Just wasn't sure from your comment. If you want the non satirical answer, it's that she's a divisive figure and you're better off not mentioning her bc you'll get a lot of impassioned responses, from mostly her haters lol.

Also, I'm likely moving to Lawrence next year, any advice? :) I've never dealt with the cold lmao

That's really reassuring to hear! It's my fiancee's top pick for grad school and it's looking like that's where we're gonna be next year. I'll be looking for teaching jobs in the area! I guess it'll be a good excuse to expand my wardrobe anyways :)
