u know what makes me so fucked as an "elder trans" I.e. (someone who has been out as transgender and my spiritual gender for over a decade to everybody in and out of my life). people who knew me when I was a quote unquote baby trans. none of those cis identified at the time fuckers stood up for me or watched out for me or protected or helped or educated me. y'all left me for the dogs. and a decade later I have the same fucks knocking at my door saying "you are the first openly trans person I knew, befriended, loved, and fucked. you made me realize myself after I abused you and you left me years ago. thank you" it is the most hollow thanks I will ever receive from those that have become my community. those that shamed me and hid me and misgendered me to their own comfort for years upon decades then decide to thank me for helping them realize themselves. motherfucker I been thru DV, I been HOMELESS, I been broke, had my parents cut me off, had no one to rely on but a drug dealing chaser to keep me alive at points. but now. y'all are grateful for the reality I begged y'all to face for 5 onto 10+ years. your trans elders are angry because even our OWN CHILDREN who may happen to be older than us in years on this earth, forsake us before they even considered accepting themselves. I'm not angry at y'all for hiding what would have gotten y'all abused, I am furious at becoming the scapegoat you felt I needed to be for you. you will never be a strong transsexual so long as you rely on your elders to face your burden for you. that is all
