'It's part of her body': Trans activist tells straight guys to start dating trans women

Trans activist Zinnia Jones has some dating advice for “straight guys”…

I don't see a problem with telling straight guys who are exclusionary of trans women partners that they should try to work through that

Nobody has to be with anyone they don't want, AND it's okay to have a baseline social norm of treating trans women as the women they are

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

Being exclusionary of trans women partners should be an outlier and marginal position for straight men, not some commonplace expectation

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

Oh boy. And if you have no desire to be with a trans woman? That’s “misplaced and inappropriate”:

These angry declarations that they have some absolute right to not want to be with trans women are just misplaced and inappropriate

Just give it a try, she says:

You have the right to be a rude asshole, to refuse to examine your own beliefs at all, but that's not something to be proud of

I also don't believe the blanket claim of "straight men don't want to be with someone who has a dick!"

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

There's some baseline rate for that as an actual true preference. But it's artificially inflated by social stigma and biases.

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

It's subject to the effect of *incredible* numbers of straight men who want us but refuse to ever admit to it, and cover it with transphobia

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

Turns out touching a trans woman's body or genitals is probably way less of an issue than most people think it is.

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

It's absolutely possible to work through this. It's a dick? Yes – a woman's. It's part of her body.

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

All genitals are sort of funny looking. It's just flesh. You can probably deal with it.

— Zinnia Jones (@ZJemptv) July 1, 2017

“Deal with it.”

This is the same Zinnia Jones who claimed photos showing ISIS terrorists throwing gay people off of buildings were actually “suicide photos”:

And the ISIS terrorists were just trying to prevent it:

I am completely appalled. This is what she actually believes–that ISIS is preventing LGBT people from committing suicide.
