Being an early #trans girl so frustrating:

Brain: "What if you're not actually trans and just want to be."

Me: "That doesn't make any sense at all, but let's test that theory!"

*puts on men's dress shirt for church*

Brain: "Get it off get it off get it off get it off get it off! Isn't there a cute dress we can wear!?"

Me: "There is, but we're not out yet. But we are trans, right?"

Brain: "Right."

5 minuted later

Brain: "What if you're not actually #transgender and just want to be."

Me finding out HRT is a thing in 2015 at the age of 35: “oh this is really fucking cool, too bad I’m not #trans because this sounds fucking awesome.”

I literally thought that.

My denial, let me show it to you. 😂

@ria Wanting to be transgender is the literal definition of being transgender.

@ria I suppose we do not want to be "trans" but we know that we are not what we appeared until a special point. So we want/know to be "whatever", and we are sure that what we have been before is not right/true/okay.
The knowledge about this and the way to be what we really are is called "trans"

So being #trans is more the knowledge, that someting in your beeing is not right
rather than "wanting" something.

I hope my try in english language makes any sense 🥴

@Elana I think it made perfect sense. ❤️
@ria Yeah that’s rough. My brain is currently trying to convince me that HRT isn’t working as I stare down at some very noticeable early boobs.
