Desolate Passion

I love how we fell in love with the moon, no questions asked. The beauty of it's glow. The beauty in it's scars. The beauty in it's unattainability. The beauty in it's companionship. The beauty in it's loneliness.

Just because I don’t require much doesn’t mean I deserve the bare minimum.

Trans women claiming they have period cramps is offensive in particular for me because I have PCOS and mine are excruciating. I have called out of work more times than I can count and taken way more than recommended doses of pain meds to deal with them for years, and they'll last like that for days on end. And trans women are just like "I have cramps and I know it cuz my tummy aches". Your non-existent uterus is not shedding its lining and ruining your underwear no matter how many things you shove inside yourself. You don't have to keep heating pads in your work locker, and you don't experience the pain of those cramps still seeping through that heat for several days every single month.

A lot of this 'transwomen can get their period' stems solely from the lack of in-depth education given to students about female anatomy. So many teens and adults do not even understand the intricacies of the female anatomy, hence why so many were so quick to profess that male people can have periods if they take estrogen. There is just such little sex education available and even less when it comes to the female body.
