new twist on old phrase, "go fuck yourself..."

did s/he actually do that? Still would have the need for a partner to provide egg or sperm, you don't get to do both in one lifetime, we are not Asexual. Sounds like you say if he'd gotten an egg of HIS fertilized he could birth it once male, but he ain't producing both sperm and eggs, i sure hope. Who would want to be that child?\

Luckily we still have legal abortion, tell dude to go get one.... ha ha

Are you being willfully obtuse? Trans men still have female genitalia. Obviously they would need donor sperm. And that’s assuming that the trans man is rendered infertile from the cross sex hormone treatments. If not, they can get pregnant the old fashioned way.

I’ll go really slowly for you since you seem to be so unbelievably ignorant: trans people are not claiming they can change their SEX, aka their biology. They are claiming they can change their GENDER, which is how they present in the world.

Ok

I was being funny

But now you have just left me confused

I live in San Francisco killafornia

I see every possible presentation

I strive to treat people well, whoever you want to be is fine by me, if it works for you. I don't have to like it as long as you do, good enough

Given the extreme hostility and violence towards trans people and LGBTQ+ people in general right now, the “jokes” about them aren’t funny.

Sincerely, a cisgendered lesbian who was attacked in a bathroom for being the “wrong” gender during the bathroom hysteria under obama. Anti-trans rhetoric harms more than just trans people.

I understand

People always spoke badly of me all my life saying things they assume...

Easy to make a joke about something I don't really know

I was attempting humour, and not to be offensive

I am sorry if I hurt you inadvertently which is not my intent

Please be well

All good. Just keep it in mind in your day to day that the current environment is becoming more and more dangerous for LGBTQ people even in “safe” “liberal” areas.
