The cis urge to get addicted to trans memes™!

spoiler block with more detailsI discovered Lemmy and as yall might know queer posts aren't exactly hard to come by when looking at All. Especially trans posts (and their comments!) gave me super comfy feelings. It sparked some interest on the subject. 1-2 months in I randomly asked a younger coworker what the right term for non-transgender people was. Ofc "cis", but that confused me, because I internalized "cis" as referring to sex (non-transsexual), not gender identity. It was at this moment, that I realized ~~I was an idiot~~ I had an outdated understanding of gender and had some reflecting to do. Though I could've given dictionary definitions, I haven't internalized them. The next hours, despite attempts of denial, realization hit and I burst out into tears of joy and confusion, my web of illusions and self-betrayal tearing apart. It was awkward crying on a 3h train ride, though, as strangers got worried about me.

As @Domi@lemmy.blahaj.zone mentioned, the importance of trans memes (and the angels posting them) shouldn't be underestimated. I am truly thankful for your services! Remind me to send @TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone some cookies. You too, @Quokka@quokk.au, whenever Anubis doesn't break loading images (not too sure if that's still an issue).
