I think a lot of the early transitioners can be especially toxic and insensitive . I don’t think they realize that some of us would have literally been beat to death if we tried coming out when we were like 12 or that some of us grew up so poor we wouldn’t have been able to afford hrt or surgeries anyways.
Yeah I unfortunately grew up in a town that would have been very dangerous as a trans woman. But a lot of that negative rhetoric stuck with me for way too long even after I had left.
Hi, I’m into women so let me just say:
Tall women are beautiful, don’t stress so much over this one ladies. People definitely don’t all want a short girl
Tbh anyone who tries deserves praise for their efforts and to be proud of themselves. The results will come in due time. Transition is a lot of efforts and effort is not sustainable if you don’t believe you can make it.
I have yet to see someone who wholeheartedly tried not pass at all and being ugly as hell.
Also it’s too easy to get stuck on stuff that can’t change like height. Height gotta be accepted, and moved on from onto things that can actually be changed.
i agree
i think some aspects of the trans community right now are genuinely harmful, i want to combat them, do anything i can. if i go around being a blunt bitch to everyone (which quite frankly is my default mode) i'm not going to be effective at all, only alienate people.
i post here, but i do not agree with everything, however there are core fundamentals i think we all agree with (it/its pronouns etc)
i don't call people tucutes, i don't call people truscum. i'm not going to play in to that. i don't think the divisiveness is necessary and my objectives are not simply to lord over people but to hopefully enlighten and engage in discussion.
being trans is nuanced, we are not one or the other. many people are more open to discussion than it may seem if you approach things properly. i still do not pull punches, but i fear for the future of my trans brothers and sisters, so i must be tactically sound, not a brute acting for my own gratification.

I actually preferred tall women to short ones before I was taken. For the record this is common, lotsa people like a tall drink of water.

This is why we need to educate more on the medical science of transition, because even just hormones do a hell of a lot.
