While reading all this, I was struck by the lack of PITT understanding about the power and limit of imagination. Like TheKingOfRhye and KeithInc. both pointed out, people enjoy playing D&D characters very different from themselves largely because it exercises their imaginations. They're not identifying with those characters; they're taking a short break from reality, for fun.
Even small children know the difference between what's make-believe and what's real, but these transphobes act like they don't. They think whatever you enjoy pretending, you will become, inevitably, because your imagination is just that powerful. They have NO understanding of psychology.
