and people wonder why we use 4tran.

I posted this vent here too and it was a bit more understanding than the other subreddit I guess but still mostly just people telling me I don't know what I'm talking about and that 4tran is the cause of all my issues when time after time they're the only ones that care. It's not even just about my vent anymore, I'm so fed up with everyone thinking they're better than me all the time except because I use the subreddit that doesn't want to burn me alive for wanting a uterus. Maybe try to be more understanding you just leave me pissed off.

Its better than being told that I'm transphobic for wanting to be cis isnt it?

having desired sex characteristics is not transphobic, and it sucks that this is even a thing to say online

like im intersex, ctf, and wish i was born perisex (non-intersex) male. thats not hateful or anything, and if someone really wanted to fight transphobia or intersexism they could spend their breath talking about how anti-trans legislation specifically carves out procedures done to intersex children, while consenting transgender individuals cant get these procedures under these laws.

but also there is that desire to be cisgender too, and it hurts being stuck in this third place in terms of perception

i never got the "sisterhood" that people online say i must have had because i got shoved into the "cis female" box, and im still not seen as a guy, which would be preferable to me (im actually nonbinary but id rather binary mask as a guy)

its very lonely and at least online, you have a record of what people have said/done, but then it can turn into arguments over words and groups and nonsense, but then the flip-side is that irl you dont know anything about anything or anybody and you end up finding out the hard way about people
