When I do get it, I feel like playing dumb is the safer bet sometimes.

- Posts that assume the viewer’s gender and/or contain potentially triggering content must be spoilered and tagged at the beginning of the post title. Example content-warning tags that you can copy include the following:
[CW: Assumes Viewer is Transmasc][CW: Assumes Viewer is Transfem][CW: Assumes Viewer is Nonbinary][CW: Transphobia][CW: Violence][CW: Weapons/Firearms][CW: Disturbing Imagery]
- Mods can be arbitrary.
Because it apparently has to be said, this community is supportive of all forms of DIY HRT.

I don't get it.
EDIT: OK, so ... a cis person sees a trans person ... and the trans person isn't passing but have tried to indicate their gender by dressing hyperfem (or hypermasc) ... and the cis person cruelly uses the correct pronouns in a way that is meant to be ironic, but then the trans person pretends it was sincere?
Is that the right interpretation?
Yes it is. I realized the meme would be confusing because of the switching POVs only after posting it, too late. Happy it was accessible in some way though :]
Like the other commenter noted, in my experience, presenting hyper* is not necessary for this to happen.
