    For real, it’s scary how quickly transphobia can get a grip on someone, to the point it becomes a singular focus, and something people are willing to destroy their own lives for.

    Specifically, I’m thinking of Graham Linehan. Other famous and successful people have let transphobia take over their lives and tarnish their reputations, but that dude lost his reputation, can’t get work anymore, even destroyed his own marriage… but can’t stop. I think he subconsciously realizes that, if he’s wrong about this, he lost everything for nothing, so he can’t ever even entertain the idea.
