    Buck Angel is a loser and a jerk. Like, Can we pick a better example than a guy whose claim to fame is porn and hating non-binary people? I could give you 5 reasons he sucks, and someone else could jump in to give you five more.

    Jamison Green is a personal hero of mine, and a much better representation of the community.

    This is the guy the Right wants in bathrooms.

      100%, I’m in no way making a value statement about the kind of man Buck Angel is.

      I just use him as an example because of his extremely masculine appearance, not because of anything to do with who he is as a person.

        It’s just kind of annoying that he is probably the most famous trans man, that he’s the example that always gets brought up in this conversation, but that he literally supports bathroom bans for non-op trans women.

        Imagine if the only trans women that people knew about was Blair White but a porn star.

        I feel like I can speak ex cathedra for all trans men in asking allies to use men like Jamison Green instead. He’s the kind of man that represents the best of us, and I think all men would benefit from reading him.
