Happy trans day of visibility I guess. Can’t even say that because everyone hates us, and let’s be honest, like 90% of allies are misguided and can’t even begin to accept us even if they don’t actively want us gone. Obviously I’m very visible here but visibility has completely backfired for us. It’s only made us more hated and more vulnerable.
I’m so glad I’ve been able to form a small circle of gay and European friends here. I know transphobia is an international issue but I really hate America. I hate how fucking stupid people are and how easy it is to make them hate people they know nothing about. I hate how easily the thin veneer of progress can be peeled back because it was never real in the first place. People were pretending to care because they felt it cost them nothing and now that they actually have to stand by it, they’ve revealed themselves to be as bad as everyone else.
I doubt whether people will ever understand this, but I wish people knew just how beautiful trans people’s minds are. If you think about it, our way of perceiving the world is more interesting than any imposed or invented framework. Our minds are pure philosophy which people miss entirely by focusing on the body. And of course, our minds are what suffer the most.
