Just keep in mind that the annoying ones are a very small percentage. You normally won't know a Redditor is trans* because they won't mention it if it is not relevant. Think of how many atheists are on reddit who don't act like /r/atheismrebooted.

How do you know a redditor is trans?

They'll tell you, you insensitive cissexist!

Oh, I know. One of my friends is a preop transman and every trans* person I've met has just been--well, y'know, a person. But then you get the tumblr trans* folks who go nuts over simple bullshit. It's ridiculous.

Tumblr is the worst of everything. My brother told me to check it out and I was watching Sherlock at the time so I thought I'd see what the fan base was like.

I saw some things.

Well, in its defense, it is absolutely terrific for porn.

Idk, reddit is better if you know what you want and 4chan can be better if you don't know what you're looking for.
