We really can’t keep meeting like this.

But also, non-sexually, it seems like the only type of trans man and trans masculine content that takes us seriously. When I came out, all I got was

"Ohhhh look at this big strong man. Look at this little king, yes you are. Did you drink water today? Did you take a binder bweak today? Oh good job. I'm so pwoud of you. Evewyone, look at this weal boy handsome king, yes he is. I'm gonna put mother mother and cavetown for you while you say "real man" daily affirmation. You don't even need hormones to be a man."

And a lot of that is because I came out young. And none of that is wrong to say to a young trans boy. Binders are tight. Drink water. Hrt is not required. Affirmations are fine I guess? If you're into that.

But I came out seven years ago, and all trans content for me was either the above, or nothing at all for so long. It was like I was in some enby baby bubble* with a blue boy bandaid slapped over the cracks I made outgrowing it. I didn't see trans men that look over 13 because I didn't know we get pushed out of those soft, girls-and-gays spaces the moment you gain weight or hair. My doctor at the time wasn't helping, even when I did go on hormones. I thought that being a twinky, femboy** soft trans boy was the only option I had.

I only started acting more like "I am a man" instead of "I identify as a trans boy" when I started seeing forcemasc content. It was the only place that told me I deserve more. I should be treated like a man. And thats when I picked up on the mistreatment loud trans men get. I've seen people say that trans men shouldn't get to speak on trans oppression because we aren't trans women. I've seen women cut off long time friends who came out as trans men because they dont want to be friends with men. Forcemasc content is one of the few places that encourages young trans men to be young men without punishing them for it in some way.

Tldr: forcemasc spaces are one of the few spaces that don't infantalize, or demonize, trans men.

*the enby baby bubble is probably annoying for grown adult non-binary people too. I'm not non-binary though. That's yalls place to talk about it, not mine.
