    My theory is that anyone who’s bothered by gay/trans/etc people is a closeted something and doesn’t want to be reminded of their own insecurities.

      How isn’t this just a way of blaming transphobia on trans people, or homophobia on (closeted) gay people?

      They can’t fucking stand that they are required to hide whatever seriously fucked up thing that they are into, and think everyone should have to suffer.

        Yeah, I think it’s this. It’s cope to try to make a normal thing be seen as disgusting, so whatever actual disgusting shit they’re doing, which always seems to be pedophelia, doesn’t look so bad in contrast. It’s like a preemptive both sides
