You might even not get downvoted too much!
Ok. It was in reference to this post https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/14323952
I wanted to comment “I’m so gay I’m straight”
It comes from a place of love not hate. Like “I’m so different I’m normal.”
I have nothing but love and admiration for our trans brothers and sisters.
Just a tip, while we're at it - "siblings" is more inclusive, since not everyone fits in a binary! Same goes for using "folks" (or one of several other alternatives) instead of "ladies ad gentlemen".
Also, I've definitely seen that joke made before in that context, so you can feel relief that the idea is out there lol
