Y'all reminds me of the bible belt. I'm not transgender but I am queer and now and then it makes me uncomfortable.
Queer people who live in the bible belt still say "y'all". It literally means "you all".
explaining the etymology doesn't really change anything. I don't know why you thought that would make me stop associating it with the bible belt.
I don't remember saying anything like that. I just don't get why being from the bible belt makes it offensive, since again, queer people in the bible belt use it too, and it doesn't mean anything offensive. If regionalisms are offensive because of where they're from, it makes me wonder how people feel about my accent.
