Context: In a discussion about a small apartment listing described as “perfect for a full-time female student,” the above transphobic comment was made in regard to who would post such a listing.

The comment is transphobic because it:

  1. Misgenders: Puts “woman” in quotes, invalidating trans women’s gender.
  2. Stereotypes: Suggests trans women might transition for ulterior motives, perpetuating harmful stereotypes.
  3. Undermines Identity: Implies trans women are fundamentally different and suspect compared to cis women.

    I think the image is a bit confusing if you’re not familiar with what the log looks like.

    Yeah it is a lot, unfortunately we are in c/modlog I can’t very well explain the model of the modlog in every post, that would be like explaining all the rules of baseball in every post of the MLB communities 🙃 Glad you figured it out :)

    Is there an action to take now?

    I would report the comment if you find that it violates the rules!

      Oh man I didn’t even notice the community I was in. Wow, hopefully the dumbest thing I manage to do today.

      I’ll go check that comment out. I don’t think I have that community blocked.
