Like a lot of people, I used to love watching HIMYM. When I was younger it was basically my favorite tv show and I recently did a bingewatch of it again. And damn did the show just consistently and intensely shove transphobia in every single way one could think of.

So gear up as we destroy any sense of nostalgia I had left.
