    Wow. From r/GayBros? Srsly?

    They were notoriously one of the more openly mysgonstic and “drop the t” of the queer subs. That’s kinda wild honestly.

      I was subscribed there for years and never saw a word of that…

        Well I don’t know what to tell you aside from seeing a lot of posts on trans subs where OP would be like

        Why do gay men hate trans women? I got told by someone in a LGBTQIA+ sub that I was just a a confused gay guy?

        And the comments would be filled with people guessing

        “This was /GayBros wasn’t it? They are like that, Gay men as a whole aren’t.”

        I won’t argue with your experience, but at minimum that sub DEFINITELY had a reputation.

      you may be confusing r/GayBros for r/askgaybros. Roughly the same size and spelling, but only one of them has a strong reputation for transphobia.
