No. If someone didn't want to hire a trans person who was the best person for the job or they refused to do business with them I would say that's transphobic, but not for not wanting to date or be friends with a trans person I was with you until the bold. That's absolutely transphobic. How so? That's part of your private/personal life. As long as you don't treat trans people badly in work/business then you're not transphobic. If you say "I'm not willing to be friends with a black person" is it not racist then? Honest question. I think the race/gender equivalency thing is always bad to make for what I hope are obvious reasons. I'm speaking strictly in the friendship standpoint only. Is it racist to say you won't be friends with a black person, and is it transphobic to say you won't be friends with a trans? That's the only point i'm making, and it's not from a factual standpoint, it's more of a genuine question, or is there enough of a separation in meaning to make them different? --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign, Twenty million starving and writhing in pain.
