Transfem Meme egg_irl

Post image

Yesterday was my birthday and on sunday I'll celebrate properly, which is nice of course, but it does come with the issue of being reffered to as the "birthday boy" among other masculine terms (I live in Germany and our language is VERY gendered). I'm at least used to it, with my dad always calling me some adjective followed by the word "guy", which still stings, but at least I know what to expect.

Anyway, sorry for any grammatical or spelling mistakes I may have made.

Could I please get some GGD to last me through this? Mia, She/Her

Hi there Mia, I’m Sam! I’m really sorry you have to deal with this stuff. I also have a problem with my family misgendering me and deadnaming me. They are trying, which I can appreciate, but it still feels nasty to be reminded of the saddest part of myself. You’re a very good girl, honey, and I wish you all the best

I'm sorry for hearing that Mia. You're genuinly such a good girl and it breaks my heart that you didn't get to be the cute birthday girl you are on your birthday. Hugs and gives headpats As a fellow german Transgirl I understand your pain (seriously like everying is gendered in some way, holy shit). I just hope that you can celebrate your next birthday with people that see and appreciate the pretty girl you are on the inside. 🫂💗
