      I mean, I've heard all kinds of shit. People generally tend to assume that whatever thing they are is the "real" sexual/gender expression and everyone else is just faking it. So you get some first/second wave feminists taking the stance that all straight sex is functionally rape (because who would ever voluntarily fuck a dude?!) and orthodox Christians insisting any violation of taboo is literally demonic possession and trans-folks bucketing virtually every cis-person they meet as either chaser or egg.

      "You're an X and you just don't realize it yet" is a very routine sentiment, particularly from people who have just come out of the closet.

          What is bucketing?

          Categorization. Like, everyone is either one or the other.

          feels extremely racially motivated

          Maybe. However hard white LGBT people have it, PoC always seem to have it worse.

          But, at some level, its worth remembering that this is a thing other people are going through and they're just projecting it.
