I hear you, it’s hard living with family who moves slow, I believe in you. Find people who you can be genuine with, and find an understanding of yourself that isn’t dependent on other’s acceptance of it. You are a social creature, and you always deserve acceptance and validation for who you are. The best way I’ve found to stay sane is to try to find who you are and hold onto it, it makes the sting less painful. We’re here for you always, man. Stay strong. 🫶

i appreciate that so much🫶 i think what’s so tough is everyone close to me sees me as i truly am, but the little comments of and misgendering a slowly eat me alive and it just gets worse at home. i’m dreading being deadnamed and misgendered for the next month genuinely 😭

I understand you completely. It’s scary and painful and makes me feel unbearably small. As a MTF I get the condemnation/judgement/demonization side of transphobia. But I imagine that the apathy and dismissal must be just as awful, you always deserve to be seen and appreciated for what you bring into a room, and no matter what bullshit other people give you, NEVER forget that you deserve space, and deserve acceptance for who you are. 💕 Hug if you want one, bro. 🫂
