    I am so fucking scared. If they will do this to children they will be willing to do anything to adults.

      it's so incredibly ghoulish. the cruelty is the point for these absolute monsters. when i realized i was trans, i literally spent hours crying for the girl i could never be. all i could hope for was for other people to grow up in a more enlightened time that would give them the care they need, let them be who they are, let them live the life they deserve. and then there's these parents out there, who do the right thing, who finally have the means to provide their children the care they need and deserve, who can spare their kids the irrepairable damage that comes from having to go through the wrong puberty, and they literally get hunted down for not being hateful, bigotted monsters harming their own children, get slandered in ways i cannot repeat here without seething.

        You are loved, sister :cat-trans:

        I have been incredibly lucky in my transition, so I'll try to live it for the both of us

          thank you so much, sis! :transshork-happy: i'll see how my transition goes, i already know that any little bit helps, that even the baby steps i'm taking every day take a massive weight off my shoulder, that even the harm that's already done is not the worst hand i could have been dealt and i'm thankful for that. cisnormativity has forced me to live my best years under a veil of ignorance, but the entire rest of my life will be mine. i just want to spare other trans people the losses i had to endure. the dysphoria, the wasted years, the unfulfilled potential. today's kids already have such a burden on their shoulder from what previous generations have done to this planet, to this society, i just wish they could at least be themselves when they're playing in the wasteland that america is becoming. this is truly heartbreaking.

              Please find community and some support if you can. You might never cis-pass but most trans people don't. HRT and living as your true self, regardless of your body can cause a huge positive shift in your life. Being around other trans people who have decided to live can make things seem possible that didn't seem possible before.

              You are loved, I don't want to lose another sister.
