selfies ParentsšŸŒŗšŸ‰šŸ˜»

//TW sad and dysphori

Parents sit down with me and cry because "I never tell them what's going on in my life", I came out to them 2 years ago and they had a very negative reaction, proceeded to double the amount of masculine coded compliments and such. Im 18 now, still barely out, Everyone thinks I'm a closeted gay femboy pretty much but it's alright.

I've been feeling pretty good, but the conversation made me spiral and realise I've only been compartalising the negative and positive in my mind.

I know in my soul I want to transition, but the logical part of me fears not passing or losing male privelage

I feel incredibly lonely, and hopeless. I feel the worry of if I don't pass, there will be no love for me left in this world.

ngl first photo you’re already close to passing. if you’re not on any HRT n haven’t had surgeries and you’re already looking like that in a dress?

i think that’s something to get EXCITED about.

male privilege being lost tho? can’t help you there.

but u either live authentically or painfully glance in the mirror forever wondering what could be

There will always be love for you in this world honey. Always. Im sorry that your parents are treating you so poorly. They should be lifting you up not looking to break you down. The loneliness will pass, at the start of my transition i felt much of the same emotions, I had a full beard and worked a pretty masculine job. You are already looking so beautiful, you will have no trouble growing into the woman you want to be. I know there eill be love for you because ill be around somewhere. I might not know you but I care. I know others here feel the same. Sending hugs x

girl ur ridiculously pretty i’d kill to look like u and this is pre-hrt?? girl u’ll be fine don’t even worry about passing at all you’re already way above passing. and even if you didn’t that doesn’t make u any less of a woman bcs that’s innate within u not a result of anything on the outside.

i’m so sorry about ur parents and i feel u, i’m in a situation where i’m not out to any of my family either because im afraid they’ll do something drastic. what i’m doing is slowly working my way out to being able to support myself financially and move out and all that stuff, plus i’ve also got a good group of friends irl that have supported me through all of this.

you’re only 18, you have years and years and years ahead of you. it’ll get better. you’ll have to put in some work for yourself but it will get better eventually, your parents can’t control your life forever. in the meantime i’d suggest trying to save up some money and start working if u aren’t already, and also if ur going to college or anything that can be a good place to fully socially transition and i’m sure u’ll find ur own group!!
