I didn't even read this carefully, I just copied and pasted... how did i miss that?!? No, no that was NOT my original wording. My wording: "Calling this woman a "wannabe" and a "he-she" is disgustingly disrespectful, not only to her individually but to all trans people." Jesus Christ. What do I do now? Holy fuck!
