Transphobia also hurts cisgender people.

I would know. I was hurt by it too. It doesn't involve bathrooms btw.

oh yea it does, one of my family members was misgendered as a man when she went into the womans bathroom one time, eventhough she isnt, by an demographics that have a wierd reaction to asian people.

I'm not sure this had anything to do with transphobia. The attackers just sound homophobic; they probably saw her hair and don't know or care that the slur they picked isn't for girls. It's sad that she's going through this. Their girlfriends robbing them after they had been beaten down speaks volumes about what sort of people they are.

It generally really sucks to be a victim of a hate crime.

How sure are we that she was attacked because she was perceived as trans? This could be a simple mugging.

EDIT- nevermind I actually read the article, this was a hate crime

It sounds like it was more of a general biggotry thing than Trans, specifically m
