/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Again, you have no way of knowing that. All you know is that you have seen trans people who you assumed were trans. My wife works with a cis woman who has rather masculine features and even a mustache. You would probably think she was trans.
You have no idea what is between someone's legs unless you can see for yourself.
You can claim to not be transphobic, but when you then victim-blame trans people for being the cause of their own problems, you are.
I'm guessing you wouldn't say that other queer people, such as a gay man, does not cause friction by being gay.
If you're absolutely positive that you're not transphobic, please explain to me about how gay men are the cause of their own problems.
Yes, you did. In the most disgusting excuse for bigotry and victim-blaming I've seen in a long time. You're now blaming victims for society not accepting them. You're now saying that gay men also caused friction by people not accepting them.
This is some seriously bigoted shit.
How about black people? Did they cause the friction by being brought to the New World as slaves? I hear it's being more acceptable to be black in the West these days.
It must be nice to be overtly bigoted and think you can get out of it by just saying you reject the label.
And no, I think I'll leave your comments up to show other people how some Star Trek fans completely fail to live up to the ideals being shown to them.
