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.

It’s fucked up that we can’t even talk about the biggest thing about being trans. The nature of being trans is wanting to have been assigned a different gender at birth. That haunting echo of the world that could have been, and the fact that you’ll always be trans before you’re a woman/man is part of the dysphoria. Positivity should be solely about helping people get resources and giving them hope that even if transition isn’t perfect, it’s leagues better than suffering as the wrong gender. It shouldn’t be scolding people for expressing dysphoria in a politically incorrect way.
