it’s cause trans people are generally terrified when they’re coming out and ready to pull a deer and bolt out of the room at the first sign of trouble. now that I’ve been out for years, coming out is whatever and I could handle a party, but I couldn’t have handled it was fresh.
Would you be less terrified of possible transphobic pushback if you had rigged all your interlocutors up to explosives with an explosion in the trans colors
hmm, I think I’d be terrified of accidentally setting them off if it turned out they weren’t transphobic but I got too fidgety or excited at their response. can I leave the trigger in the hands of a trusted trans mentor?

I think that would be fine. But I think you’re socially obligated to help others rig up their explosives at that point.
ofc, at this point I’m the trans mentor more than the baby trans anyway
Still safer than a cis gender reveal party.
That means you must make more explosives.
