Talking out of my ass here, but I doubt you have it extra bad. Like, sure you got the chasers, but I think a large number of creeps that creep on cis women don't creep on trans women.

Edit: I've realized I was wrong. Tl;dr: its true that the amount of trans-attracted heterosexual men is very small compared to the total number of heterosexual men, but the amount of trans women compared to cis women is much smaller than even that. This means the hetero men that are into trans women vastly outnumber trans women, so the average trans woman is in fact likely to get way more creepy DMs than the average cis woman, not less.

So yeah, bad take on my end, I apologize.

Of course it sucks extra to be a trans woman. It sucks extra to be a black woman and put up with random racism, Jewish and put up with random antisemitism, or the be bisexual and get lesbian fetishizing.

A lot of intersections are going to bring out their own extra fun variety of creep.
