i hope i can convince as many people as possible to transition it really is the best thing you can do for yourself. i was already a little obsessed with myself but watching myself get a little cuter each month has made it even more so. im so much happier and excited to live every day. im excited about my future. whatever happens im going to be a girl. its the best decision ive ever made, bar none. ive never been more excited about anything ever and i wish this feeling for everybody. i spent a lot of time telling myself i wasnt trans because i was scared of the process but ive literally encountered zero negatives, not that that would be true for everybody, but, hey, you just never know how great it could turn out! so idk get on hrt girl/boy

like tbh what helped was kind of being told that i was trans. my whole life there were signs like in high school when i thought about how nice she/her pronouns sounded and wanted longer hair but i just never put it together that i was trans. if you think being a girl or a boy would be fun you can just do that!! it doesnt even need to be something you inherently Know about yourself. i think a lot of us trap ourselves into being cis because we think we're not Trans Enough or we needed to be told but if thats the case you're still trans! idk this is just my own experience but because I've lived it I know others have, and i want everyone to have the opportunity to decide that, yeah, this is right for me. so if any of this sounds like you, please take it as a sign to chase after something beautiful<3 peace and love

Please does anybody have the picture of the orange kitten sitting in front of old yellowed wood paneling and it’s smiling like this. The post where I saw it went something like “little kids before they learn how to smile in photos”

this one?

THANK YOUUUUUU

“Hey, I like this color and it looks great on me!” you say one day.

Six years later you open your closet and nearly every shirt you own is the same shade of rusty red-orange. Help.

SHIT. SHIT SHIT SHIT.

I’VE BEEN MASC VELMA THIS ENTIRE TIME AND I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW

Nice cosplay

THESE WERE JUST THE CLOTHES I WAS WEARING WHEN I MADE THIS POST

in the japanese suburbs, every street is lined with rain gutters, so even during heavy rain, the streets are perfectly navigable, even on foot. in the american suburbs, there's like one drain every couple of streets, so whenever it storms, the streets turn into rivers

When asked why I got top surgery:

BIGGEST FUMBLE IN MEDICAL HISTORY: cute girl assigned MALE at BIRTH?

As Shinji once said: "I am me, I want to be myself, I want to continue existing in this world. My life is worth living here"

I think the obsession with having been “born this way” largely stems from the idea that you need to be “innocent” to be guiltless. 

If something is weird then you need to have no control over it, otherwise it would be mandatory to fix it. If I said that I had control over my stimming and could stop it at any time, people would request I do so. Not for my comfort but for theirs. If I said that I had control over my gender and could be something binary or maybe even cis, people would request I do so. If I said that I have control over my sexuality and could make myself heterosexual, people would request I do so. If I said I could control my attraction and could make myself monogamous, people would request I do so. If I said that I could control my disability and could choose to stop a flair up in its tracks, people would request I do so. They would never ask out of the goodness of their hearts, they would always be asking because I was annoying, concerning, distracting, or inconveniencing them. 

Diversity is sometimes only tolerated if you have no control. If you have control, rules will be made to stop it. Hair will be straightened, clothes will be standardized, languages will be shushed, interests will be squashed, weight will be lost, and so on and so on and so on. Proving that we were born this way replaces the more obvious, that we’re okay this way. I don’t need to be a helpless victim of my differences to be forgiven for them. My differences aren’t crimes. 

mistreating him

what do you mean by "fun"

Once my friend Henry was accused of wearing wireless headphones by a substitute so she said for him to hand them over so he took them off and handed them to her. Then later on she asked him a question and he didn’t respond so she said it louder and he still didn’t respond. She asked why he was not responding and he said “I can’t understand you ma'am, you took my hearing aids.”

HOLY SHIT

one time we had a sub that was handing back papers and called my name. I asked if someone could grab it for me and she started mocking me for not even standing up. taunting me asking why I was not walking up to the front to get the paper myself.

my classmates went dead silent and after the sub’s laughter ended someone informed her that the wheelchair parked nearby belonged to me

I had a sub in English once, on presentation day. And everyone goes up and does their thing, and then its my turn. The whole time im stuttering and mixing up my words, having to stop and re-say my sentences. The rest of the class is used to this and claps. However, by the time its over, the teacher is 100% done.

Starts saying horrible thing about how im going to have to get over my ‘fear of public speaking’ and how she’s heard 8 year olds give better presentations (plus worse things but I don’t really member them). By then im in tears and on the brink of a panic attack, and then she starts telling me off for crying The rest of the class is horrified. Then this boy stands up. He never been my friend and we never really got along, but he’d never bullied me. He told her in a pissed off, cold voice that in freshmen year I got a concussion and that I never really recovered from it, so all that was medical related and I couldn’t help it. Then he starts telling her off and the rest of the class joins him.   The teacher is mortified and tries to cover her ass, but the whole class walked out and that boy took me by the shoulders and we all walked to the principles office and told him what had happened. Lets just say she isn’t teaching anymore. Also, turns out that boy had a sister like me, who couldn’t really speak. We’ve been best friends for 8 years and i’ll be his best woman at his wedding next year.  The moral is that Teachers, even subs, and adults shouldn’t scold kids before knowing the whole story, because shit like that can fuck up kids self-esteem for the rest of their life. 

When I was thirteen, I had to have spinal surgery. When my doctor said I was allowed to attend school again, he said I had to use a wheelchair when on school grounds. My first day back at school, my special-ed teacher had put up a banner in her classroom that read, “There is no elevator to success. You must take the stairs.” I asked what that meant regarding my wheelchair, and she gave me detention for “disrespecting her authority”. The next week she gave us a homework assignment to design a poster that could potentially be used as a Public Service Advertisement. On the due-date, I handed this in.

My special-ed teacher was fucking OUTRAGED. She wanted me expelled for ridiculing her authority in front of the other students. The principal proclaimed my work to be “a masterpiece of satirical genius” and vetoed the special-ed teacher’s attempt to expel me.

Reblogging this post yet again, this time for the masterpiece of satirical genius. Hope the teacher got in trouble.

"egg prime directive" man stfu

I'm genuinely starting to think "egg prime directive" only exists to silence trans women talking about transmisogyny. Like no one is telling you that you have to be trans, that's literally the fucking conservative conspiracy theory.

When I came out to my parents they told me they already knew. Not from egg shit but because they got told by my younger sister, who got told it by the younger sister of my best friend. I agonized over my identity for years and years, and when I finally had my words together to say hey this is me, they knew! If they had just said something it would have been less stressful.

This isn't meant to throw my family under a bus but if you *know* why wouldn't you say something? If your friend came out to you and learned that you knew they were showing signs and you had a clear idea but you chose *not* to help them, wouldn't that just make you look like an asshole? You can help someone figure their shit out quick. Someone close enough to you to call you friend. "but egg prime directive, you can't tell someone they're trans" man fuck off.
