"you shouldn't speculate on a dead person's gender"
no one needs you to protect the inherent assumed cisness of someone who very obviously didn't fit the mold of what cis men are expected to act like, who died far too young and never got the chance to tell us how they identify as, who ended their own life the way so many trans women closeted and otherwise do due to transmisogyny.
instead of getting mad that someone said Kurt Cobain was a trans woman, instead ask yourself why being a trans woman is a fate worse than suicide in your eyes.
Not to mention that people speculate on the orientation of dead people CONSTANTLY. "Historians will call them good friends" was a meme that got turned into a goddamn song. Why is being transfem different.
