Questioning Transphobia

Within minutes of "outing"myself as trans (pre-transition) to the first trans man I ever knowingly met, I heard something my naive mind latched onto for years: "Don't even think about phallo[plasty]–it just gives you a frankendick, totally ugly and totally useless." That's quite a statement, and something I repeated myself without critical thought for a few years after that.  If that's trans male oral tradition, count me out.
