In my 47 years on this planet I have never been scolded for being a man.
If you could be driven to Rogan, Peterson, or Tate it is a safe bet that you are not being scolded for being a man, you are being scolded for being an asshole.

She wasn’t calling you a TERF, so you’re aware. She was referring to the UK, which many trans people call TERF Island on account of how several famous TERFs reside there.
Though while I’m responding I also would appreciate seeing an actual answer to Jane’s initial question, as a het trans woman.

There was no need to make it so that the Darkspawn and blights were made by elven gods. There was no need to make them so overwhelmingly important that basically every country, culture, and religion is in some way intrinsically tied to them. It's almost as frustrating as the stupid post credit scene

Just about everything in the setting was explained. The elven gods? All evil imperialists instead of what modern elves believe. The gods of most other cultures? Either created or killed by the elven gods. It makes the world feel so much smaller.

Like forcefem is whatever, there are some forcefem stories I’ve enjoyed, but I do not like trans affirming ones that downplay the abusive nature of taking someone’s autonomy away ‘for their own good’.

It’s the same thing that keeps real victims with their abusers, too. “Oh, she actually loves me and wants what’s best, that’s why she doesn’t let me see my friends.” “He loves me, which is why he doesn’t want me to embarrass myself by going outside in clothes he doesn’t approve of.”

Zoe Saldana just won an Oscar for a film about a trans woman & didn’t mention trans people at all during her speech.

The nuclear family is so authoritarian, parents think ever apologizing to their child is a sign of weakness and they'll never have "respect" or "control" over them again

It would also probably involved a lot more sneaking around, lying, and acting suspiciously. Her wife wouldn’t be allowed to know about doctor’s visits (but likely still see mail from them), what the random meds she sees around the house are, or even see her with a shirt off. It’d look so suspicious.
