Can we stop throwing each other under the bus for FIVE SECONDS

"transfems are so sensitive and reactionary" LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER

"transmascs are so self centered and reactionary" LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER

like yeah I talk more about my experiences as a trans man. Duh

And I'm gonna call it transandrophobia cuz what else am I gonna call it? It's not garden variety transphobia in the same way transmisogyny isn't

Please be fucking serious, this is all such a smith college problem and I hate that it's infuriating me this much in the first place

Like people can and will be shitty to you, this has nothing to do with their gender identity. Please get that into your heads

There are no societal trends in place for different kinds of trans people. The cake is a lie. Your hatred of the "other side" is so useless cuz it's always the same five people who are just really loud all the time anyways

How, at thirteen years old and reading m/m erotica I had no business even knowing existed, I would place my hands on my upper chest, below my clavicle and above my just emerging pair of breasts

I would feel the firmness and flatness of my ribcage and I would beg god to make it so that my entire torso could feel like that. I didn't know what trans was but I knew I didn't want what was happening to me

During my middle school biology class I would daydream about getting breast cancer just to get a double mastectomy like my grandmother had to just months before

I felt guilty about wanting it, but I didn't know how else to feel like myself at the time

The moment I read the definition of transgender I knew that was what I had been experiencing, and I felt so much joy at knowing that I cried

The only times I have ever gone back on that have been out of shame or pressure to do so, but I refuse to do that ever again

I don't know when I'll be back
