Can we be like... trans-positive without blatantly hating on cis-people? Like... that's the exact kind of humour you don't want about the trans community... why spread it yourself then?
This isn't hating on cis people, it's calling out those who uphold stupid sexist social norms that actively contribute to our marginalization. The pressure on men to avoid any and all things seen as feminine is very real and very stupid, and it made me miss out on so many great things for many years of my life. I'm still trying to undo the damage it has done to my mind. So excuse me for taking enjoyment from mocking something that has hurt me so much.
You can be cis without being the cis man in the meme. The people who are that man can change.
