    yeah, “trans-attracted” isn’t really a thing. we’re just the gender we tell you we are. trying to differentiate us from cis people is a red flag.

      I used the term “trans-attracted” to separate people that wouldn’t elect to be in a relationship with a trans person and people who would. That’s not an attempt to differentiate a trans person from a cis person, I’m sorry I came off that way

        you’re fine, that’s why I clarified. cis people think it’s a benign distinction when the separation of categories is itself at the heart of trans liberation.
