The ol "my life experience is universal" argument I see. I did move, everything I own fits into a backpack and a suitcase. I'm in this tiny ass town because it is where I could get a visa because I'm fleeing the US before they execute my trans ass. If I leave now we're talking flushing literally tens of thousands usd down the drain on the off chance I manage to find another way to get a visa somewhere else.

So as far as dating goes again I'd love to know what the correct way is if not apps, and I'm vetoing "risk my life" options like moving.

Ignoring being a bitch there for a second:

For what its worth, there's a lot of trans people in the furry fandom. If you can get past the cringe, you might find someone you like. And theres a lot of furries. Theres probably a fair few closer than you think

The mainstream normie apps are trash.

"Have you tried being a furry chaser" is not what I expected but I suppose it does meet my given criteria, plus it's an app so I'd say we all win this one

You're the one struggling to find people and community, and not wanting actually -do- anything about it.

I dunno, seems like a you problem where you're painting yourself into a lonely corner.
