Just checked this subreddit and found an amazing post telling off the transphobic behavior of the sub. It had the “reported post” flair and tons of commenters assuming OP was baiting. Sigh.
Sure she's found some examples of transphobic comments from askgaybros, but that's not representative of the sub's usual content.
It's one of the more active ones I follow, and the vast majority of the posts don't mention anything trans related. For the ones that do, most of the negative comments boil down to "I don't want to sleep with trans men" which is completely fine and not actually transphobic. It's sometimes phrased in an ignorant and offensive way, and sometimes it's mean spirited, but I mean, get over it? Being referred to as "biologically female" always upsets me, but that's literally also said in this video too 🙃 making this video just as """transphobic""" as askgaybros imo
There's generally a lot of good discussion about topics relevant to my own life as a gay man like hookup culture, being perceived as a gay man in society, coming out to people, sexual health testing, prep, all sorts. My being trans is rarely relevant to anything.
There is literally transphobia everywhere on that sub… like everywhere! I went on there and asked advice on my old account and I got so much hate and downvotes my account was literally banned
Also I do appreciate if you felt offended by the terminology biological female but in this instance it was being used to state the difference between someone using it to talk about biology and someone using it to just laugh at trans people which they do in that group ALL THE TIME.
I’m sorry but I don’t see how that is transphobic in the slightest and surprised how you find that one comment from her offensive but not the space that literally laughs at our community every day…
They are not gonna pick you bro…
That place is BAD vibes. So irresponsible to pretend it’s not and potentially send other trans guys to a place that literally hates us.
How often do you actually read the sub? Because I waste my life scrolling reddit every day, and it features heavily in my feed. I literally see posts from it every day. And I'm telling you the vast majority of posts don't even mention trans people AT ALL.
If your assessment of the "bad vibes" comes from reading what's posted there as often as I do, then fine, that's valid. If it comes from watching one youtube video with a lowlight reel of all the worst bits, that's a poorly informed opinion.
I just went to the sub and typed in trans, filtered to new… and there are transphobic posts every day.
So once again stop being irresponsible and sending your own community to a place that isn’t safe for them. I watched the YT video and went to some of the posts and there are posts in that video from up to last month all the way up to last year… so calling it a highlight reel is stupid. Would you have preferred her to read everything that came up everyday?
It’s okay if you like the space but don’t send people to a place that’s not safe for them WITH GOOD REASON
Wdym safe? In what way is it unsafe? I get what you're saying and askgaybros is definitely transphobic, they whine about trans people being on grindr and whatnot, but in what way is that sub unsafe? We're being a bit childish here when we consider reading upsetting words on the internet unsafe, just scroll away

That's what unsafe means in this context, a transphobic environment is unsafe
