  • I’ve been on HRT for just over 5 months now. bridget-vibe

    Pros: It’s been amazing, way better than I imagined. So many people said it’s not gonna fix everything and things will still be difficult and it’s not magic, but it definitely feels like magic to me. I have never in my life felt this happy or good about myself. It feels like things are finally sort of clicking into place.

    Cons: Since boymoding makes me feel bad now, but I still have insecurities about going outside as a woman, I usually spend like 90+ minutes to get myself ready even if I’m just going to buy some groceries.


  • I honestly think we should stop using the term and just call them transphobes. I don’t have a problem using it for actual radical feminist that hates trans people, ie. Germaine Greer and people like that, but in reality people who hold those believes in anti-trans circles are very rare, and they’re mostly second wave feminists in their 70s or above.

    I’m aware that a few radical feminists are still active in those circles, but the majority of TERF thought leaders are either liberal pop-feminists, or don’t even identify as feminist at all. Because of that I don’t buy for a single second that their hatred of trans people comes from misguided feminist beliefs, rather than plain old disgust and a weird need to defend normalcy that’s not at all different from how conservative christians feel.
