I need to change my whole life

it's actually fucking crazy that people are still parroting the idea that you need to tell people that you're trans before dating kissing or yes even having sex with them. so called allies are still talking about transness like it's this inherently dirty and corruptable aspect of someone, something that's necessary to clarify before intimacy in order for it to be consensual; as if being trans is a rot that can spread and stain someone, as if demanding your partner reveal private information about themselves without you asking is somehow a legitimate personal concern akin to knowing if your partner has an sti.

What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”
