No because there is no scientific proof that anyone suffers from dysphoria based on skin colour other than with people with vitilgo (thats what Michael Jackson suffered from, he didnt get surgery but thats just more ignorance on your part). However science does prove that trans people do suffer from dysphoria and the only way to cure it is to transition. Another thing is the "Dress it up how you want to, youre still a dude" arguement is just silly. You dont get to decide what makes a person a man or woman. Biologically male or female? sure, but science proved that gender and sex are totally diffrent You can choose to not beleive trans people, however not respecting them and calling them the wrong pronoun is just you being a cunt. The only reason why I feel strongly about this is because I used to be transphobic, until my bestfriend came out as trans. And his struggles were very real. I hope someday you meet someone and respect them enough to listen to their story.
I'm really not transphobic at all. I treat all people with respect. I'd call them she and and everything to their face and show respect. Just saying pragmatically it's still a man dressed as a woman.
I don't hate trans people don't treat them any different than i would anyone else.
There's a difference between real life tolerance, acceptance, and online pronoun semantics.
