"I'm not transphobic, transphobia is the fear of trans people, and being trans gender is due to a mental disorder called gender dysphoria"
"You're taking the word transphobic out of context, being trans isn't a mental illness and the treatment for gender dysphoria is transitioning, you're such a cis-splainer, stop cis-splaning"
