81. And they're even worse when it comes to trans women.

The straight men who hate gay men hate trans women even more. Thsy spend their days getting worked up about trans women in sports and who should be allowed to use which restroom while completely ignoring the fact that trans men even exist, much less what a can of worms is opened when trans people of either gender are forced to use restrooms that correspond to their sex assigned at birth.

I wish I understood why so many conservative, straight, cis gender men are such fragile snowflakes.
