@FatMadiVersA "Suggestions" sounds wrong in that context. It would mean outing others, which they might or might not feel comfortable with. But I'm from Austria anyways. :)

@rhonda hmmm but aren’t most ppl openly trans online so it wouldn’t matter because they are anonymous?

@FatMadiVersA To some degree yes. Personally speaking, even though I'm openly trans (also offline), I wouldn't feel too comfortable with being introduced as trans. There's a difference, if you get what I mean? It suddenly feels a bit like being reduced to being trans. But then, I can speak only for myself anyways, others might feel comfortable with being shared like that. Though, I don't know if they are, so I wouldn't do that (myself)

@rhonda I thought about it and I get your point and your totally right

@FatMadiVersA Cheers. :) Too bad you deleted your original toot, because boosting it (and potentially have people DM you after it if they feel like) might get you what you are looking for. Personally I'm fine with followers, some people probably follow me for lesser reasons. xD If you aren't looking too tightly locationwise and Austria is still close enough. No borders no nation, stop deportation. :)

@FatMadiVersA @rhonda I know many people who are trans, but don't advertise this fact online – you might notice after following them for a longer while, by reading between the lines, but it's not in their profile. So adding them here would mean outing them.

@rixx @FatMadiVersA @rhonda *points at their own profile* i guess it's a complete mystery.

@meena The mystery part there is your location. Where do you hide currently, my dear. :)

@rhonda yeah, i coudn't decide what's more important: that all i'm saying is unlicensed and can be stolen and sold, or that i live in Dortmund.

@rhonda fixed.

i hope i managed to convey the general feeling of dortmund thru emoji.

@meena I never knew what to put there anyway, so I failed right from the start, not with the space. :)

@rixx @rhonda i agree when someone is not openly trans on their profile then it would be shitty to out them as trans I just thought most people were open about that in their profiles as it is not traceable to your irl identity but apparently I have been naive and never had any problems being openly trans on my profile
