    This has happened a few times as well on this side. An honest question of trying to understand, and then get told that’s doing “sea lioning” which is something that was pointed out a day or two ago. Learn something new every day.

    But it makes one sad if you do want to learn, to really understand better, without harm meant or judgement, and NOT every time, but most of the time, being called a (insert a sensitive topic here)-ophobe.

    There are things that even wikipedia doesn’t explain properly, so one has to sometimes ask, especially if it’s really something you either don’t understand or get at all. Like on this side it’s literally not knowing any better, that got the trouble going, not harmful intent.

    There are still questions about queer / femboy / trans that are a mystery, but makes one too scared of offending. And this is written with 100% sincerity. This is not a blaming game or finger pointing exercise.

    And imagine it’s someone who actually is interested or still wanting to come out and asking sincere questions, if someone attacks you, it would put you off for life, nevermind being hurt by a group / race / idea that you aspire or look up to. :-(

    1. Agreed, but the comic does not hint at anything being about a person’s value, it’s about pure physical, primal interaction.

    2. The video doesn’t show anyone, but a story and manga instead, so not sure if there is something missing?

    3. We don’t really have trans people in our town or that many in our country, as we’re quite conservative compared to the US or EU. Have only seen what makes the rounds in meme / popular posts on social sites. A lot of them are the fem boys from Thailand, the rest is what looks like the Ru Paul type thing. Once again, am an outsider, not familiar with the terms, words, etc.

    Saw now that the simple question posted on here was reported and removed by a moderator without a chance to defend oneself.

    1. It was an honest and simple question, no harm or trolling was intended. What if it was asked by somebody who was actually curious and wanted to know more? The responses and downvotes and reporting definitely would put this person off for life.

    2. Not having a lot of exposure to these things, and not knowing all the rules and ways of the internet, this whole thing seems to have blown put of proportion and something that could have been a civil conversation, turned into an attack.

    Again, was being sincere and didn’t mean any harm by the simple question. But what’s done, is done, we guess… :-l
