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.
