    I really underestimated how transfemmes are treated on the broader internet. I came to understand myself here, and kinda assumed that this place is representative.

    With it’s acceptance and large presence of trans feminine people, and lack of inane bullshit, but actually this seems to be the exception (apart from like small discord servers).

    This is a really good place and much more exceptional in it’s protection of trans people than I thought.

    Manly YouTuber ♂️: Hey guys, in this video I’m gonna show you how to get the CLOSEST shave that’s gonna leave you BABY smooth. For the best results, we’re gonna use a straight razor. That’s right, there’s no substitute for BLADE on SKIN. We’re gonna shave our face the same way we CUT our STEAKS, with a big KNIFE. So, if you’re ready to enter the world of MANLY shaving, drop that cartridge razor and keep watching.

    I think it’s very funny that as a small child I was like the textbook example of autism and yet nobody suspected I was autistic, probably because I was not a boy lol. Just goes to show how gender interacts with the medical field I guess.

    Sometimes I go on trans spaces on tumblr, and there is so much bullshit and wreckers and stuff there. I didn’t know how good we have it here.

    The “discourse” currently is about how egg jokes are harmful to gnc men, and don’t respect their identities.

    Ok so update to my last post: im probably gay.

    I always thought I was bisexual, maybe leaning towards men even. But then I decided to seriously date men (and hook up with one also lol), and like idk. I feel like the parts that I liked were just things that made me feel feminine, like the contrast between our bodies or when they take me out and I feel like a woman on a date with a man. I’m sure straight women also enjoy those things, but I’m not sure that Im actually very attracted to male bodies. And maybe I don’t actually like it when they touch me.

    But what really convinced me lol is that I also matched with another trans person and I’m way, way more interested in them than any guy I’ve talked to. Like I didn’t totally get their gender at first cause they didn’t say much about it, but just my instinctual reaction was “this person is really pretty and I want to get to know them”. It turns out they’re like transfem non-binary. We got coffee the other day and Im going to see them again on Friday, which im like really we excited about.

    But even if that doesn’t work out it seems like pretty good evidence. Like my reaction to men has just been increasingly meh and as soon as I randomly found someone who wasn’t a man I like instantly had a crush on them lol. So yeah, being gay is ok I guess.
