you need to stop wishing to be cis. you were born as you are, and unfortunately that can’t change. instead, you need to celebrate and love yourself for who you are, not mourn what is impossible. i get it, i really do, if i was a cis girl or boy life would be So much easier, but unfortunately, i’m not. and if you’re trans, you aren’t either. don’t treat being trans as if it’s a horrible illness though, you’ve been blessed with an experience to help and change the world so others like you can live their life. you’re wonderful, you’re transgender, you are you and that is a wonderful thing to be. dysphoria sucks so much and if i could switch into a cis body i would, but until that is possible i’m going to do my best to work on loving myself and the body that i’m in.

Recently I’ve been making the rounds on disboard and learning a bunch of terms like transcomp/transcompassionate, transsoc/transsociologist as alternative terms to anti-transmed/tucute/etc. Here’s another I’m gonna drop on top of that!: Dysphoria Non-Essentialist (DNE for short): A person who believes dysphoria is not needed to be trans. Inversely its transmedicalist counterpart would be the following: Dysphoria Essentialist: A person who believes dysphoria is necessary to be trans. Neither of these are meant to be insults! Note: I left the discourse in 2015-2016 jsyk. I’m not coming back to it, I just like to make terms to hurt people’s heads and made a post after talking about it somewhere else. Btw I hope that for all of your sakes (on either side) that this argument is a dead or dying subject. Hopefully. I’m too lazy to check.

same tbh. it reminds me that some people really are good people and are able to see me past my opinions. i wish more people were like that, I'm a good person at heart

I could give details about them, but I'm too tired to rn. send me an ask for more info

it’s as simple as that! do you identify as a female? no? then you aren’t presenting as a female!! let people wear what makes them happy!
