i’m afab but i’m amab passing
and i’ll say it again: the sooner you actually process how maintaining the thought of amab/afab as two coherent, mutually exclusive classes of people is deeply transphobic, the better
honestly i have been thinking about this a lot and i think something that rly fucked me up was how amab/mtf terms force trans women into this path of moving away from manhood on all levels ie social, physical, hormonal
and how that’s all bundled up into one track like you’re a trans woman go thataway which really really helped me initially bc i could finally understand myself through that
but also. i never had a dress wearing phase. and i’ve still never actually worn a dress lol. at this point i don’t even care that much about being perceived as a woman
which is really personally liberating but also. the amount of estrangement i feel from so many of you all because of my close relationship to masculinity and not being white is exhausting. it is exhauusting and i feel like i have to have a grip on every aspect of my identities
but anyways i’m tired and i have a test that’s 🕰 🕰 🕰 hours late and i’m depressed, ta ta for now xx jade
hmmmm do i delete this thread 🤔
