same. I didn't crack my egg until trump part 2 so I had to seriously think about whether to transition or wait for safety. at the end of the day it was transition or die, so here I am transitioning :3

I’m sorry that you have to deal with everything going on. I know that doesn’t make anything at all better, but I am sorry.

I think trans women are strong and resilient because you all have to go through so much, and it takes immense courage to finally cut the bullshit and let you be you. And yes, that’s the same as the bomber meme.

Just know some of us are out there trying to be allies for you. We may not know you specifically, but we support you.

Hey buddy, I am glad you can be you. :)

i'm not addressed here and i think your words are really kind, but fiy transfems often do not enjoy being called buddy.

please don't say now that buddy is gender neutral. i am sure it is to you, and that u mean well, but many trans fems perceive it differently and after all you are trying to be an allie to us, right? sowwy no offense intended just trying to spread knowledge :3

I was also going to comment the same thing, I can't even really express why I hate it so much. It somehow feels like the least gender affirming possible thing to call me.

I can second the "don't call me buddy" sentiment. If you'd like to refer to me the way you'd refer to a child, please use "sweetie" or "darling" or "miss."

I'll third it. A friend of my uses "dude", ofc no ill intent, says it to everyone and really does mean it in a gender neutral way. I never expected to have such a gripe with it but it really fucks with your head

I am not resilient, therefore I must wait
