Can someone explain to me how transphobia affects cis women too ?

I don’t have any relevant body of text to add. I’m just genuinely curious because I’ve been seeing this a lot and I’m looking to be informed. I’m not trying to be malicious at all. I’m genuinely trying to understand how transphobia affects cis women as well, because I don’t think I fully understand that part of the conversation.

This Hella Random but

Ngl, YoungBoy didn’t fully click for me at first. From 2016-2018 I understood why people liked him, and I thought songs like Untouchable, Outside Today, and Gravity were hard, but I never really got the hype beyond the hits. Idk, i listened to every project he Chas dropped as a fan of music, but it just wasn’t good to me beyond like one or two songs. Then I listened to AI YoungBoy 2 and it’s like something clicked. That whole project has 0 misses. After that I went back through his older projects and realized I think I’m evaluating his music incorrectly lol. The consistency, emotion, and rawness were always there, but it just didn’t hit to me until late 2019 lol.It’s crazy how one project can completely change your perspective on an artist. I wonder if anyone else had a similar journey with Youngboy’s music.

Parasocial culture

I don't like Zach as much the next guy, but is this not like insane? Contacting immigration because you don't like what he said/ did on a tv show???!?
Have ( some ) love island fans always been this extreme ?

Why do I get along with libras, but still get annoyed by them sometimes?

Can someone explain why I’m a Libra rising, but I sometimes get annoyed by certain Libra Suns?

For context, I’m an Aries Sun and Aries Moon, so maybe that’s part of it. 😭

I’ve noticed that with some Libra Suns, I can pick up on people-pleasing tendencies or a reluctance to say how they really feel in order to keep the peace. One of my closest family members is a Libra, and she’ll often hide her true feelings about people for the sake of social harmony until she’s pushed to a breaking point, instead of expressing herself honestly but tactfully from the start. I’ve met several other Libra Suns who seem similar. Conversations with them usually flow really well, and I generally get along with them, but something about that dynamic tends to rub me the wrong way.

Part of me wonders if it’s because I used to have some of those traits myself and can recognize them more easily now. Or maybe it’s my Aries placements preferring directness over diplomacy.

Interestingly, I don’t usually feel this way about people with Libra Moons or Virgo placements with Libra energy. It’s specifically Libra Suns that seem to trigger this reaction.

Has anyone else experienced this? Astrologically, what could be causing it?
