I wish I wasn’t seen as a “trans man” I just wanna be seen as a “man”. The infantilization of being pre-t never ends I get this treatment most from other queer and trans people but nobody wants to talk abt that

ugh i feel that. i've been out as trans since nov 2023 but my parents are extremely transphobic (and mormon) and would probably cut me off if i came out to them so i've just decided to delay starting t/top surgery until after college (i'm gonna be a senior next year). but it hurts having lived for over a year and a half knowing i'm trans and not being able to do anything about it and feeling like i'll never be able to pass as a consequence

I’ve been like this for several yrs but knew even longer My family says they’re “accepting” but treat me no different which almost feels worse tbh
