I disagree. Im my experience the "average" person (at least in the us) does think about trans people, they think of us as a joke they see in sitcoms or movies. "Man in a dress hahahahah"

That is honestly how the majority of people see the issue and they are bad people for it.

probably depends greatly on where you live as cultural and childhood expectations lead to a lot of adult habits.
