  • I think the tone deaf thing here is you telling trans people, who are being actively targeted by an increasingly fascist goverment and conservative media, that it’s not bad enough yet for them to leave.

    Any person who wants to leave and has the means to leave should absolutely leave by whatever means, and your judgment of them is of no value.

    If you have a problem with worldwide asylum quotas, maybe take that up with a foreign government or something. People who are just trying to survive and make the best decisions they can in an increasingly high-stakes situation should disregard everything you’ve said and continue doing whatever they want, and you should support their ability to do so.

    It’s like saying that you can’t reason someone out of a belief or opinion that they didn’t reason themselves into. You can’t apply reason to subconscious processes and expect them to change in response. It’s been a valuable lesson for me to not try and quash my emotions with logic but to give them space to exist and process.














  • I’m a trans woman. My first couple weeks on HRT I was just very tired and emotionally unstable/grumpy. I never really felt euphoria from it. Overall, estrogen has felt better than testosterone did, but that doesn’t need to be the case for someone to be trans femme. I’ve also met trans men that noted the exact same positive effects when they went on testosterone. Everyone is different, and gender isn’t a chemical thing.
