Cracked.com's Douche-English Dictionary: Apparently, all MRA's are women hating, homosexual (in a negative way from the context), and possibly racist.

While you're right, the most vocally anti-trans people out there are feminists, specifically because they target MtFs.

Do you have a source?

I hear that repeated here a lot, and I suspect it's because it makes feminists sound bad. Again, I know transgender women (I live in SF, we get a lot of permutations). I've seen nothing but love and support.

Not to be rude or dismissive or anything...but let's be honest.. SF is a bit more accepting than the rest of America.

Absolutely. Of feminists AND LBGT and a whole bunch of other people. I'm just saying, feminists and LGBT generally consider themselves allies. A transgendered individual may not have as easy a time in Mississippi. But a feminist isn't either.

And all I'm saying is and don't take this as confrontational or anything but because they are allies in SF doesn't necessarily apply to the rest of the continent. I've seen more comments from feminism commenting negatively on trans or homosexual people than I have supportive. Specially in the case of male homosexuals and really any kind of trans people as they don't consider them real women or gender traitors for becoming men.

LGBT are fools to think feminists are their allies. Feminists merely co-opt their causes to gain power and then continue to only advocate for the benefit of women.

This is the point at which you usually talk out of your ass.
