... How could they not? The blåhaj thing has been going on for years lol
you put å in a wrong place haha
Mb, not Swedish :(
apology not accepted, i expect you to show us your new citizenship within the year.
I’ve finally learned what blahaj represents. That’s awesome.
Why are there no trans flags in any of the ikea stores i went to
Are you in a red state?
Romania hates trans people and is a country so i think yes
See. This is how it's done.
IRON YOUR DAMN FLAGS PEOPLE!
.........what the fuck is a bedrule?
You just be new here
It's bedroom, transformed to include the word "rule", as is the style in this Community.
That sharks are transgender?
I once asked what the shark is about. Their name is Blåhaj and the patron saint of the Blåhaj Zone Lemmy.
Two Blåhaj?! In this economy?!?
So, uh, what are the odds of two trans people sleeping together? I'm asking honestly. Seems a really unlikely combo.
(disclaimer: I'm a cis guy so take this with a grain of salt) Actually quite likely. Dating is hard for trans people because on one side there's a lot of bigotry/transphobia/... And on the other side trans people (especially trans women) have been fetishized, so I can imagine that the dating scene does not feel very safe. Combine this with the fact that other trans people tend to understand best what someone who's trans has lived through and it seems quite natural that trans people often date other trans people.
I have no idea on the statistics, but would consider this from the perspective of some other groups of individuals that commonly associate with each other. People with common backgrounds and experiences (actors, alcoholics, aristocrats, etc.) tend to be in each other's company. Coupling among them doesn't seem uncommon.
Mercury Stardust (trans handy ma'm) is married to a NB person, iirc, although I'm not sure if they consider themselves trans.

Honestly, more common than you'd think. A lot of trans people feel safer and less judged with other trans people than cisgender people

Seems like a charged question one already knows the answer to.
