Idk. If you could figure out you weren't trans, why couldn't anyone else? Seems like you were in generally the same echo chamber and yet you figured it out yourself regardless.

People get mad because trans people are... pretty used to being told by cis people that it's just a phase. I mean... yeah, sometimes it is. But there's nothing wrong with going through a phase like this either. The vast, vast majority of people in that situation end up like you. And when everyone around you is already telling you they know better than you do, that you're wrong, and you're dealing with the sheer amount of hate towards trans people (mostly trans women) is embedded into our culture, well... I understand why people fly off the handle like that. It sucks when you mean well, but... I understand why you'd get yelled at. To them you're just another cis person who thinks they know better to add to the pile.

Honestly, I generally am willing to talk as long as I think people have decent intentions, but at this point I don't even know what the dialogue you want to have is. Doesn't seem like it's entirely about fandom anymore from your post, haha.
