and just for anyone who might be freaking out about it (i used to do this a lot), i just want to remind anyone who sees this that antis see us as a 'disgusting trend' and not as people or an actual identity. Normally, i don't think this would be very comforting— but what I'm trying to say is that its a 'gross trend' to them, and they will move on. There will always be bad apples who will go out of their way to harrass us and make us feel unsafe, and it is always very important to practice safety, especially when we are blowing up in the places where we dont want to be noticed. I'm trace and figured that out about myself around the same time the whole 'rcta' thing was blowing up on tiktok. There are still many posts being made about it and mocking the very idea of racial dysphoria, and there always will be. But the hate has died down a lot compared to how it used to be. What prompted me to write this all out is that i saw some comments on this post saying that transage people seem to be blowing up a bit now. I haven't seen anything yet, but i know how terrifying and hurtful it can be. I just want people to know that it will pass. There will always be hate, but to antis its a 'internet trend' they will forget about. You are loved. Please stay safe. ♡ (sorry this was long, i just hope this helps at least one person if you do decide to post it. Staying anonymous for my own privacy and safety)
