So you’re saying this post is bad because the focus is entirely on the positive interaction, and nobody is screaming the fact that one of the people in the story wears a hijab and going out of their way to slam Islam over it? 🤨
If you wanna make broad generalizations about large groups of people with diverse beliefs, you don’t get to turn around and exclude another group from broad generalizations just because you’re included in it.
Just wanna add in case people haven’t encountered these nuanced interactions: my cousin and her husband are both atheists that think being gay is a choice and trans people are mentally ill. Religious beliefs or lack thereof don’t guarantee someone will be ethically or morally upstanding
You can upload literally anything on this site and it’ll be downvoted. Sometimes even for the content, usually just because creeps will go back through your history and downvote everything you’ve posted for a week or two.
Seriously…. Who downvotes this??? Such a wholesome share!
Transphobic people.
No. People who don’t think sexist religious conservative values should be applauded. This is basically orphan crushing machine material

AND islamophobic people.
I imagine the downvoters assume the post is making a point about Muslims in general, which it isn’t.
It isn’t Islamophobic thinking Muslims are transphobic, they are. Much like most of the world outside the West.
Westerners are transphobic.

I’m not worried about it, though.
I apologize for the downvote. I agree with you, it just felt like the right thing to do. :p
That’s what happens when you mention downvotes. It primes people mentally to do it. The good news is these are completely meaningless internet points.
