The entire second half of your comment is both prejudiced and incorrect. You are generalizing an entire marginalized group by the actions of a few people you have interacted with. I have many trans friends irl, interact in communities with people across the gender spectrum online, and am engaged to a trans woman. I have never experienced someone being rude when they weren't treated rudely first. Additionally, trans people and "gays" are different categories entirely. You do not sound like the ally you claim to be.
