being trans is generally cool and interesting, most of the stuff that sucks about being trans is the fault of the society we live in, instead.
This has kind of been the opposite of my experience. Yeah my parents are transphobic pieces of shit, but like 90% of the people I deal with outside of them are very nice about me being trans and gender me correctly and use my name once I tell them. The shit that makes me want to pluck my eyes out is when I look in the mirror. I hate my body I hate my rib cage I hate my wide-ass shoulders I hate having a dick I hate existing in this body
Well that's good in a roundabout way at least, because dysphoria does fuckin suck badly, but it's good that you don't run into transphobic fucks all that often. Hm...
That might also just be the fact that I live on campus of a liberal college and go out of my way to interact with as few people as I possibly can in a day, maybe once I graduate and move I'll deal with more bigots

Hope not
Despite living in a retirement town I haven't dealt with a ton myself.
