So, I posted about not wanting to shave despite my family and the guy I like wanting me to. Someone on another social media platform (I know Lemmy isn’t like other social medias sometimes) said that it was because the guy I like was transphobic and saw me as a girl. Is his behavior transphobic for wanting me to shave my private areas and legs? I think it’s just a preference…
Beyond the question of transphobia, I’m uncomfortable with the idea of forcing painful, costly and time consuming aesthetic practices on a partner. In a relationship we should take people as they are, nobody is forcing anybody to be in a relationship with someone who doesn’t shave, so trying to impose it on somebody who doesn’t want to… that’s bad
