The hardest part of being friends with a trans person is seeing them hurt and being unable to help. I can tell them that it gets better, but really? It's empty words. All I am able to do is talk with them, but words don't help, and I don't know what else to do.

I'm eternally grateful they trusted me enough to come out to me, but the suffering they have to go through because of transphobic family members infuriates me. Telling them "it gets better" is a paper-thin lie, and I feel like I'm being selfish for trying to stop them. And sure, "people care", but not enough to be supportive and use the right pronouns or try to help them.

Thanks world, glad you got rid of the naive kid who thought the best of everyone.

trans women don’t owe you our medical histories

we don’t owe you performative femininity

we don’t owe you a fraught sob story

we don’t owe you an explanation

we don’t owe you anything

Thinking this morning about gender euphoria vs dysphoria... For a long long time, I just used fantasizing of being a girl as escapism. But there was also fantasizing of being myself as my AGAB as an escapist life so I didn't think too hard about it...

BUT, on reflection... even those I would fantasize as turning into a girl every so often, for a short while... And even for those short periods, I would definitely imagine my behavior as different... as euphoric

Don't forget to mention a social issue that corporations don't wanna fix like "the commute is a bit annoying"

Thinking about it some this evening, about the fact that my dysphoria about not being able to bear children comes and goes in waves and has since I started in my 30s

Last year when I had finally cracked, it was in the middle of a wave of that. So I spent the first couple weeks not even wanting to try beginning to transition. Because I was dysphoric and depressed and couldn't see why I should even bother because I couldn't get what I wanted to be able to do
