seeing young trans men saying how they feel so “validated” by people telling them to kill themselves because “at least they see me as a man” is actually so fucking sad. 15 year old trans boy you do not deserve to be treated like a monster because of the words you use for yourself and the goals you have for your body. you do not need to accept this kind of treatment from your own community in order to prove that you’re not a threat. you are a person. you are a person
Literally why I'm so vocal about transandrophobia and why, as a trans man in my 30s, I won't be caught dead capitulating to that shit or engaging in constant performance of platitude, apology, diminishment and self flagellation for existing as a trans man
No I will fucking not teach trans masc youth your creepy terf version of original sin
No I won't teach trans masc youth that they need to apologise for being trans, for being masc or for being young men
Fuck transandrophobes and fuck every trans masc and trans man who sells out his brothers in this way
