I get why that is, because it's seen as an assimilationist thing sometimes. But again, everyone should have a right to decide how much they broadcast their transness. Instead of getting mad at people who want to be stealth, (silly, antagonising our comrades) why not go yell at cis people who want us to assimilate? Ez!

nice ramble!!

Yeah that's another aspect, you can holler at people about being out-and-proud and trans-positive, but safety first. It's sad and awful that we live in a society marx-joker

where that has to be a consideration, but them's the material conditions. I don't think anybody should be attacked for being quiet about their gender in situations like yours.

Haha same, I never wanna be "sir" or "him" or "mister" ever again desolate so I feel you there.

desiring to fit into a complete enby space because I absolutely despise the idea of binary genders and everything involved with them

This makes sense given how arbitrary and difficult the societal "woman" standard is, yaw. I follow. By truth I can see pretty easily why you think how you do about it, was very easy to follow for a big ramble =) It's kind of validating to hear from someone else who instantly "slammed the gas" on transition, I've always felt a little weird for discovering you could transition, and then immediately yelling at people that I was gonna do it...

Because these are things I always wanted and never had words for, I knew that I was taking the right path off the bat. I will say that it really worked out for me as I've never been happier sitting where I'm sitting now, so it was the correct thing for me to do.

This is me also! Love to see it cat-trans

No worries, it was great actually I enjoyed reading, thank you ✨ I'm always happy to wrap my head around other people's experiences and perceptions, this was very enriching trans-heart
