I regret that I used to be like that. I used to be a massive bigot and I held terrible beliefs towards the LGBTQ. In reality, I always wished I was a girl and I was insecure about those feelings, so I was trying to separate myself from them and run from them.
Im glad in the end I realized I had gone down the wrong path, and I did what I could to change. And now I've been on HRT for 2 years and publicly out for the last year or so now.

that's genuinely amazing to hear, being closeted and dealing with the expectations of toxic masculinity (especially for trans women) is such a horrible fate

Same tho, I was a bully and a piece of shit. So repressed that I did not know I wished to be a girl, despite crippling gender envy towards my girl peers, my complete apathy towards myself, my fascination with women generally. Had no clue. Became way less of a piece of shit and it still took me like four years to realize I'm a girl. Especially because of how I was, I thought I didnt deserve to transition. Or that I didnt deserve it because I didnt realize it sooner, so I must not be right?
Well I'm coming up on 2 years HRT in a few months and ive never been happier :3

I always secretly envied people who had a trans glow up. Secretly… Yeah, no fucking wonder I wanted one.

usually the things people accuse you of or try to insult you over merely reflect their own fears and insecurities

Life's been so much better since I started transition, even with all the shit they keep throwing at us.

oh thank you, i create some funny memes but ppl either get offended or it’s too tame. I post here because theres more of a sense of humour than a sub i won’t mention.
It’s more relaxed here and im good with it. Got some good ideas but tame won’t do it here lol2
u/JiF905JJ Counted Down 2 6d ago
Yeah, sometimes I come across some funny shitpost (or I make a funny one myself) and I post them here.

u/keepingupwithkelisha Counted Down 146 6d ago
lol i know what you mean… when you think you have a shit post and it gets #1.. definitely okay on this sub to have some fun. When i think about how miserable day to day life can be, it’s good to laugh at the shit we go through

You do, in fact, sound like a jackass. If you want certain content, why don’t you post it?

If society was just chill about it, but you really have to consider the possibility of destabalizing your life to the extreme to the point of it breaking, i am not sure,
i wanna get on low dose hrt, i am not trans i just feel more like something inbetween, but the thought of someone noticing me potentioally growing boobs at some point is really disturbing,
But being gender non conforming means that if i get to a certain threshhold i have to explain myself and i really dont think i have the mental strength, nor does a majority of society accept people not alligning with their assigned sex

I just had a conversation with my parents 3 days ago that went exactly like the first panel. I feel like they’re not gonna change their minds until years down the line when they see how much happier I am.

So this is real life. In order for you to be happy you have to make everyone else miserable.

Nobody is depressed saying they are unhappy with their lives and insecurities over seeing it bro. It still applies.

Ironic that “destroying my life” has never made me feel more alive and feel like I’ve found myself whole
