    I’ve been forced to stay at an insane asylum, I was only going based off my prior experiences is all, had no idea about the trans thing.

      Fair enough, but I think you should just take care with that. Do a bit more research before jumping to insults that can be damaging to people’s gender identity.

        In the insane asylum we didn’t care about genders, we were all shacked up together regardless of identity or sex at birth, no doors were allowed on rooms or showers or anything, so I’m not sure where I’d be insulting genders with that statement.

          Referring to trans people as “insane” for being trans is transphobic, and a bit ableist. I’m not talking about your personal experience, but your presumably unintentional transphobia.
