8 years of me going "wow the experiences that trans women describe about growing up in a prison of masculinity and feeling drawn to femininity despite how forbidden it feels to like it openly are so intensely relatable. i guess i don't feel a strong relationship to masculinity myself but i'm not like, you know, trans or something. im okay with being a man." before i realized it btw
maybe if people didn't call me cis+. maybe if i'd seen more transfem enbies have their transness taken seriously instead of being written off as "basically men". maybe if i didn't see transfem enbies treat themselves as basically men and strangers to transness. maybe if i saw more transfem enbies period. i don't know.
everywhere in the queer community transfems are made to be slightly outside of it
