Presumably, because it's humiliating? If you're talking about a perfectly normal problem that is in no way NSFW (I'm not familiar enough with this space to give an example, I'm sorry) but it is marked as NSFW because it has something to do with being trans... I would assume that the feeling one would develop would be "my existence is NSFW" and eventually you disengage because nobody wants to feel they aren't accepted. To me, it would really just be "this thing is calling me as different when all I want is to find a community that accepts me".

But if someone with more experience in this wants to correct/expand on this I'd be grateful for the opportunity to understand better.
