Rude, Ignorant, Transphobic Assholes should DROP DEAD
Rude Message someone sent me via Facebook:
Hi,
I know we never talk, but I wanted to see if you are ok. I am sending this message because, frankly, your hygiene is non-existent. I am not sure if you are aware, but you smell very very bad. I was in the computer lab at David Lawrence and I had trouble working because of horrible BO.
This message wasn't supposed to be preachy, but I wanted to give you a "heads up" that you're starting to go down the wrong path. I saw you come out of the men's room the one night dressed like a middle school child. I thought, as long as it makes her/him happy, it's none of my business. But the BO smell you left behind was horrendous. I am not sure if you realize, but men do wear antiperspirant and use Gold Bond (or even Corn Startch) to get ride of odors in that other area. You looked like a little boy, but you smelled like a homeless person. I think you're better than that, you are at a prestigious college, it's time to start acting your age/gender and carry yourself with some respect.
Speaking of gender, I went into your pics (because I wasn't sure if "Kaden" was the person that I was thinking of). You are a very beautiful girl, which I was unaware of. I have never had the privilege of meeting this side of you, I have only met the "Kaden" with dyed hair and plastic glasses.
Maybe you could think about letting your hair grow out, shower, and begin to dress like a girl again. I don't have braces, but I use chapstick ALL THE TIME, this would help with your chapped lips (which probably get cut on your braces).
Again it's your life, you can tell me to buzz off and keep doing your own thing. However, in this pic, you are extremely hot, and I know that life will become a little easier if you can use this to your advantage. It would help with the conflict that is going on in the inside, if you begin with how you look on the outside. It goes back to that old adage "Dress for success", and I think you can be successful if you decide this is something that is important to you.

WHAT THE FUCK??? Fucking bigot drop dead right now!
What I responded with:
"Fuck off! I'm a transman and I am proud of it, and it's none of your business what I dress like or smell like and fyi I am not prestigious nor do I claim to nor are my glasses fake; the other "side" of me that you claim to have never met, never existed, was just a disguise."

Worst thing is the person trains capoeira! What what???? He's hardly ever there though and I know most of the people at Capoeira in Pittsburgh would NOT be okay with someone saying that to me. Plus I'm not a fucking elitist, University of Pittsburgh is NOT prestigious and I can dress and smell however the fuck I want, what I look like has absolutely NOTHING to do with whether or not I will have "success". I refuse to be the "prestigious" representation of straight, white, upper-class americans that take advantage of, manipulate, and degrade people of color, underclass, LGBT people, fat folks, freaks, et cetera. Don't fucking tell me to conform to your standard of raceism and homophobia and transohobia and classism and abelism. Oh did I forget anything? I'm sure I did.
And no one should be required to "act" in any way other than who they are on the inside, regardless of "age" or "gender" and fyi I'd rather be a homelesss person than a fucking transphobic bigot. Oh, and thank you, transphobic person, for telling me I look like a boy, why would you do that if you hate us so much? Huh? You should know that that part of your bigoted letter, at least, made me smile. And don't tell me the old pictures of me are "hot" when obviously that person was a mask and you wouldn't say that self injury scars or anorexic bodies are hot, would you? FUCK OFF AND DIE!!!!!!
