My unwokest opinion is that it's near impossible for cis people (and, let's be honest, many trans people) to bypass their instinctual perception of a person as either male or female based solely on their appearance, and theoretical understanding of gender will not overwrite it.
"Vous n'êtes pas obligés de transitionner" n'est pas une phrase révolutionnaire, à vrai dire c'est la NORME 💀 dire qu'être trans ne se résume pas nécessairement à transitionner ne doit pas devenir un argument pour dissuader les gens de le faire ? Like what are we doing
être trans n'est pas un ressenti. être trans implique de faire une transition (changement de classe de sexe).
- c'est pas une question de ths mais de rapport entre soi et la société patriarcale
- les pers trans qui ne peuvent pas faire de transition c'est un cas particulier
I think I just don't understand a large subset of trans people. Because when I saw posts like this as a baby trans it made me more hopeful for my own transition. It didn't make me feel worse IDK.
Trans people: Hormones have made me finally start enjoying life and for the first time I genuinely feel comfortable in my body.
Cis people: But aren't you worried that it might be irreversible?
"si on ne couche pas avec vous on est transphobe c'est ça ?"
Non. Coucher avec une personne trans ne vous rendra pas moins transphobe.
Vous n'imaginez pas le nombre de personnes activement transphobe qui baise ou cherche à baiser avec nous.
Hanging out with cis people only made me realize trans language is like a foreign language to them and it feels incredibly isolating sometimes, as they don't really want to learn it, despite being accepting and wonderful friends.
My opinion on this is that HRT obviously works and can do wonders but it's not pure magic and you need to really put efforts into your transition to look better (make-up, girlmoding...). Learning from cis and older trans girls is capital, at least in the first months of HRT.
i feel like a lot of hrt doomers fail to realise that its not gonna make you into a supermodel, its just gonna make you look like you if you were a girl
music, fashion, film, why i love it, why i hate it. why i can’t live without it, passion, humiliation, process, craving the high of making something, persona, friendship, legacy, mortality xx
