Oooh, easy one I can snap up real quick ;P
Being trans has nothing to do with sexual orientation (meaning, which sexes/genders/whatever a person is "interested" in)! "Why would you want to be a woman if you're still attracted to women?" Begone with that "want to" crap but also this whole thing about sex, gender, and orientation all being a single thing with exactly two options is irritating. Basically, "this is about my own identity, not some game I'm playing to fit into your world. If I lived your way I wouldn't be trans, now would I?"
On that note, the idea that we're trying to play tricks on people is a particularly offensive one. That one can also go directly into the bin.
I will play to trick them, if thats an fear of them.
I mean they're ass, why I shouldn't ?
Speaking about the offensive one in your last paragraph
