Hi, I have a transmasc boyfriend and am part of the LGBTQ+ alliance. However I started my first year of college and encountered uneducated men who just did not believe that trans people had their rights under attack. One of my friends even told my trans woman friend that she had more rights than him. How or what can you do to help others become educated without “debating trans existence” or starting an argument? Thank you.

    Tbh, I don’t know much beyond “transgender people exist”. No idea about any nuances, the exact kinds of transgender, the differences etc. There seems to be a lot more to it than “trans men/women”, and I feel a bit ignorant trying to make sense of terms like “asexual” by their dictionary definitions.

    I’ve so far been living by the motto “be a decent person”, considering myself open-minded and tolerant, but if there are good sources of information with an overview of all this, please drop me a link.
