I believe it is at least partially the same hatred for cosmetic surgery, just amped up because it’s more impactful and they don’t understand why being trans would make a difference.
It was socially acceptable to make fun of “fake” people for years. Everyone knew what a Botox face looked like. Celebrities are ridiculed for not ageing gracefully and clinging to an image with 21 surgeries a year. And now these people are changing their entire gender and pointing at these people for being fake is supposedly wrong? Because it’s “necessary”, the same as the cosmetic freaks claimed? Why should it?
In their mind, trans people just need a reality check the same way they dealt with cosmetic surgery addicts, but society seems to protect and pamper them instead of pointing out that they are loved in their natural look. And instead of trying to understand, they double down on what they’ve done for years. Sunk cost.
