I have never in my life met another group so obsessed with other people's genitalia. Whether it's being caught in a theater playing them, or stomping into bathrooms to look around at them, they really need a different hobby.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

-Wilhoit’s Law

They’re desperate to find an ‘out group’ they can feel superior towards. In the ‘good ol days’ all you had to do was look at someone’s skin color, but now they’re being told they can’t do that (openly).

They’re also cowards.

So they’re aiming for a very small, underprivileged group that they think still seems ‘weird’ and ‘outside the norm’ enough that they can pick on them and not get in social trouble for it.

The problem is (and this is also a part of why they don’t like trans people) trans people look like everyone else, so they have to go around yelling at everybody and looking like morons.
