Is it transphobia to call out attention seeking behaviour and annoying people? 

Too much of this "transphobia" boils down to just telling annoying obnoxious people to sit down and shut the fuck up.

Guess what? If you weren't trans you'd still be a cunt and I'd still hate you. That ain't transphobia, that's equality.

"There is hatred out there," Ferrell continues. "It's very real and it's very unsafe for trans people in certain situations." He ponders my original question. "But I don't know why trans people are meant to be threatening to me as a cis male. I don't know why Harper is threatening to me." The pair have a gentle rapport – there are lots of appreciative smiles back and forth. "It's so strange to me, because Harper is finally... her. She's finally who she was always meant to be. Whether or not you can ultimately wrap your head around that, why would you care if somebody's happy? Why is that threatening to you? If the trans community is a threat to you, I think it stems from not being confident or safe with yourself."

maybe because they collectively argue that "you know yourself better than anyone" even as a child and that children should be able to start to transition at ages when they're still saying "I want to be a dinosaur when I grow up"

maybe when their happiness is contingent on how others treat them or what others say about them, manifesting as demands and impositions on others, rather than finding fulfilment within themselves and just laughing and not caring if someone misgenders them

maybe because they're encroaching on women's spaces and causing the whole world to go insane, with various regulatory bodies allowing them to smash female records, win medals and push out natal women from competitions

now read it as Will saying "hey you dumb women, if you don't like it when trans women win competitions, that's just because you're not confident with your own self, you need to look inward and stop feeling threatened"
