[orange, looking weary, while pink looks on] Mate… Why would you say you're hetero, the person you're dating used to be a dude, that makes you gay

[green, holding hands with pinkblue] The person you're dating used to be a kid, so… you're a pedophile?

The transphobic argument isn't that you'd be gay for dating someone who used to be a dude, in their view you're currently dating someone who still is a dude.

These kinds of imaginary clapbacks are fun but usually end up fairly unconvincing to (transphobic) people.

At no point did I ever think any transphobe would be convinced by this.

First you would have them to admit that trans or gay people are even people.

This is what you say to a transphobic person to figure out if they are going to shut up on their own or if they need to be shut up.
