I have level 2 autism, I don't talk much (which is mainly because I also have an anxiety disorder but it's also that I don't understand language very well) and I am a transgender man. So many people don't believe me when I say I'm a trans man just because I'm mentally and intellectually disabled, and refuse to call me by he/him pronouns or refer to me as male. The thing is they're not just transphobic mean people, because for neurotypical or low support needs people, they'll respect their identities. it makes me upset

idk man i just feel like im not allowed to be a tgirl because im trans and im just a confused teenage boy

"most autistic guys dont relate to other guys and manhood, its normal. most autistic guys get confused and think theyre girls. but you dont have to abandon your fellow men because of that." i had people telling me that whenever i talked about my feelings, even though i personally feel like a girl and dont feel comfortable w being a guy, and it makes me sad

I have pyromania and am non binary. The amount of people (jokingly, mind you) telling me to change my name to Arson is astounding. Don't make a fucking joke out of what I genuinely god damn struggle with.

trans ableism is when

me, a trans dude who is autistic: "i genuinely hate that im a guy. i hate how everyone makes kam and other androphobic jokes to me and marks it as 'gender affirming'. whats so gender affirming about wishing death on someone because of their gender? not to mention im autistic and very sensitive towards androphobic 'jokes' and i cut myself over them. people are so fucking mean and vile. i cant take this anymore."

them: "shut up! its so obvious girls who say kam are joking, why dont you just get it! most guys dont cut themselves over those jokes, why cant you just be normal like them! its always the neurodivergent men who are so sensitive and emotional and annoyiiiiing! you really dont deserve to live if you cant even take a fucking joke!"

Literally everyone that says being trans is just a result of mental illness and that a person ain't "really" trans, just mentally ill

The fact that Chappelle Roan called transmascs "confused autistic girls" which isn't just trans(andro)phobic but also ableist, and I here pretty much no one talk about it

(I don't have a source for this claim so if you don't post cuz of that then that's fine, if you do post this take what I said with a grain of salt)

this is transableism

edit: jk Rowling said this, not Chappell Roan
