Hey this is for all you cis folks out there. Shits really bleak right now for trans people, and not just because of this whole reddit crap. Republicans are gearing up to pass some really heinous laws that do things like coercively de-transition trans kids, make being a trans teachers illegal, making it so that you cant legally change government docs documents, the list goes on and on. Things are really really really exhausting, and as much as many of us are big fighters, others of us are barely getting by both materially and emotionally. Like I am pretty materially comfortable and 2 years into my transition and even I am pretty worn out by the world, it is like 1000% worse for baby trans and trans people who aren't as lucky as me.
So I am asking you, if you yourselves have the mental and physical means, stand up for us in any way you can. Even if you cant do anything in the real world, if its just calling out shit and bullying transphobes online, every little bit helps make things easier. We need you comrades.

i personally started to male fail around 2 yrs hrt. i had a similar sort of vibe, i was scared of inconveniencing people or being a target, so i didnt ask people to be careful with pronouns until i started passing even while not trying. then i just got annoyed at people cause like, every random person is on the memo at this point, why cant the fucks i know get it right?
like i got a looker of a straight cis bf, like, a man's man straight guy, yet SOME assholes in my life still cant figure it out after 10 years. its just fucking inevitable unfortunately
