maybe I would have been more masc of center if I felt like it was ok to do so
like if I claimed masculinity I would just be forced to be like "oh yeah, male privilege has totally activated in me the second I came out" and that& #39;s just not part of my life, I can& #39;t access that

& if I didn& #39;t claim that I could now magically access patriarchy, that I would not be a complete man, or that I would be "misgendering" myself
even though misgendering should be determined by the individual experiencing it
so no, I actively held back masc experimentation

I have honestly heard so much hurtful, ridiculous, bullshit discourse in an effort to treat trans men as "real men" (they mean cis men)
& how it& #39;s ok to just drag trans men as a whole "cuz privilege"
I even felt guilty using he/him pronouns at first
how is this helping anyone

it might describe the experiences of binary men who conventionally transition
like how does it help as someone who is genderfluid, who presents fem & is literally never going to transition and just feels like a man *sometimes* because that& #39;s how I feel

literally you& #39;re all so toxic and gross about this, and the people who get fcking hurt are the mascs who pass the least, who are gnc, nonbinary, genderfluid, etc.
I& #39;m never going to have an authentic way to even conditionally, occasionally call myself a man without this bs

if you feel like im somehow invalidating random other trans people I literally don& #39;t care
I& #39;m tired of discourse that doesn& #39;t include what I experience, or claims that I must be lying and covering up ~toxic masculinity~ or something, idc what other trans people need any more
