[ID: two screenshots of a reddit post on r/offmychest by user awaythrowjessie, titled "My girlfriend made me realize I'd be happier as a woman". it reads as follows:

I am 33, born male, and have had major self image issues my entire life. I hated seeing myself in mirrors, pictures, you name it. I honestly thought it was kinda normal so I just accepted it.

Now about 3 weeks ago I was at my girlfriends house, we have been dating a little over a year now, and have plans to move in together soon. Now recently she has shaved her head to support of her friends with cancer (side note thenl treatments for that friend are going very well). She had since bought some wigs to wear while her hair grows back out. We were joking around as I have male pattern baldness, and when she went to the bathroom I jokingly threw a wig on and waited. She came our, saw me we laughed for a bit and she said "you know I think you'd make a pretty girl" we laughed some more but those words triggered something in me.

Cut to a few night's ago she asked why I've been acting weird lately and I just told her how i was feeling. She said "alright let's do this " and when I asked what she told me she was going to give me a bit of a makeover and put me in one of her dresses and if i liked it then good. I was nervous and asked what if I did like it would she still be attracted to me. She just responded with "Baby you know I'm bi, guy or girl you're still mine." Her words reassured me honestly i love her so much.

Anyways she finished the make up, fitted a wig on me perfectly and got me in a dress and even helped me put a bra on and stuff in a little so i could see what breasts would kinda look like on me. Now I expected to see myself in the mirror, laugh this off and move on right, but I didn't. She did an unbelievable job, like I looked like I had been born a woman, and when I saw myself in the mirror for the first time in my entire life, I liked what I saw. I probably stared at myself for a good 10 minutes before she finally asked me something. She asked what I wanted to be called. After a few seconds I said Jessie, I always like the name Jessie. She whispered in my ear "well Jessie, you look beautiful." And that was it, I knew this was who i wanted to be.

I'm nervous now though, my friends will accept it but my family are, well let's just say not very progressive. But this is what I want.

[ID: A screenshot of a Reddit post from r/offmychest by user awaythrowjessie, titled “I went out as Jessie for the first time and I was honestly surprised”. The screenshot reads: Hello everyone, this is an official follow up to my previous post that went viral and caught me off guard.

So me and my girlfriend, (Who has officially agreed to disclose her name lol) Emily, had gone shopping for me to get me outfits and the like. Earlier today i put on one of those outfits and officially faced the world as Jessie for the first time.

To say I was nervous would be an understatement. We went to our local mall and I was almost shaking, thankfully Emily calmed me down and said if anyone said anything mean to me she'd handle it, then playfully threw up her hands like a boxer lol. We stepped inside and started walking around going in stores and I noticed something, no one was staring. Like at all. I live in an area that still has issues with LGBTQ people so I was afraid of staring or aggressive people. But none of that happened. People greeted me, the store workers were kind and nobody looked at me like I was weird. I felt comfortable, and Emily even said she saw someone check me put, though i doubt that.

This was unbelievable to me and honestly I felt like myself. I feels nice that I can go out without worrying about Judging eyes.

So I just told them to add the $20 something onto my bill, and I thought she was going to break down crying right there.

Another time, my dad gave 50 bucks to a guy who said he needed to buy medicine for his kids. I told my dad he was probably going to spend the money on alcohol or something, but my dad said that “whether he was lying or not says something about HIS character, but hearing someone in need and choosing not to help when I have the means to says something about mine”.

Guys, stop being crap to creators. You aren’t hurting Amazon. You’re stealing from writers.

EDIT:

Okay, to all the people blaming Amazon and TikTok, you are wildly missing the point or misdirecting blame.

TikTok is an app. It is not sentient. It is not doing this.

Amazon is also an app, and it is WHERE this is happening.

The problem is the people who are choosing to do this.

In order to “save money”— please read that as “steal”— they are buying a book fully intending to read and then return it so they get something without truly paying for it.

Nevermind, libraries let you borrow books for free, including ebooks.

Nevermind that writers can’t keep food on the table or a roof over their heads (so they can also keep writing, btw) if they aren’t getting paid.

No, no, what matters is YOU. You wanted it, felt entitled to it, made excuses to yourself and others to justify it, and then helped yourself to someone’s hardwork without intending to pay for it. AKA “theft.”

This isn’t some vigilante, anti-corporations BS. You don’t hurt corporations by doing this. You hurt authors. You hurt the author your stealing from. You hurt every author who gives up getting published because of this behavior. You hurt other authors who sees this happening, knowing you don’t give a rat’s ass about them only want to selfishly benefit from their labor. These are people who work hard, aren’t paid a living wage, and are practically begging just to be fairly compensated, yet people continue to exploit them and take their hardwork for themselves. (Slavery is coming to mind, is it doing that for anyone else? Make someone else do all the work while you reap the benefits and do absolutely nothing to earn it, including not paying them so they can pay bills and eat?).

You hurt people. You hurt the people you are stealing from. You are choosing to do that.

Stop blaming TikTok and Amazon. It’s PEOPLE who are choosing to do this to other people.

When politicians mock parts of our community that they know you won’t bother to defend, they’re using it as a foot in the door. They are using it as a way to make their next action seem less extreme, and they will continue until they have achieved what’s happening in Texas and Idaho. And you are allowing them to.

A group of relatively popular artists on Instagram is currently hosting a classical art event that is supposed to be a celebration of diversity but they banned any portrayal of religious culture because it’s “drama”

And when questioned the hosts doubled down and said they were mainly trying to prevent “the controversy” of portraying Muslim and Jewish culture through Asra, Julian or Portia, and all while saying they welcomed criticism and concern are actively deleting comments made by concerned Muslims and Jewish people.

To add on top of that, the main host of this event is someone who lied about having a psychology degree to try to gaslight me into apologizing to Savenkey for calling her racist.

“What the fuck are we supposed to draw then”

why would they specifically point out Islam????????????????? 🤔🤔

Clearly attempting to lie and mental illness their way out of this situation again so here is the comment thread they are trying to lie about:

I can see you. And I will call you out.

There is nothing you can do to make me afraid of you.

I have been crossed and hurt by too many people online to even flinch at what an influential person can do to me.

Too many racists like you have tried to silence me by every dirty technique manageable.

I have no reputation. I have nothing to lose.
