TW abuse, racism

a yt woman didn& #39;t like me. she put on fake tears and made up a story so people around her would hate me. They held me down and beat the hell out of me. "you& #39;re basically a man" they said (because of my masculinity) "tr*nny" another one said. https://twitter.com/wannabeitgurl/status/1314460239597465600">https://twitter.com/wannabeit...
I didn& #39;t do anything wrong. But she laughed with her friends that maybe if I wasn& #39;t such a manly cunt it wouldn& #39;t be so easy to hurt me. As I struggled she pulled out chunks of my hair and clawed at my eyes, my face stung with tears mixing with my fresh wounds.
I tried really hard to be feminine, I thought maybe people wouldn& #39;t treat me that way. I was even wearing a pink dress that day, but I was still perceived as masculine because of my race, and my masculine behavior. it still happened.
My masculinity put me into direct harm.
all this time I tried to be feminine thinking "maybe people would treat me better" "maybe people would stop being transphobic towards me" "maybe I just want to be a trans man because I& #39;m misogynistic. I want to be a good ally."
all that led to was me still receiving hate, and I had the honor of feeling like shit every time I left the house.
I got harassment every time I walked out the door. no matter what I did. how I dressed. if I wasn& #39;t a "tr*nny" I was a "d*ke"
if I wasn& #39;t either of those I was a "n*gg*r"
The hate was always because racism, or because of my masculinity, specifically. Often both.
When I tried talking about it "oh, just try harder to be a woman?"
My mother was so disgusted with her beautiful daughter being masculine that she tried to force femme me. She even shamed me for my small bust "maybe that& #39;s why people think you are so manly?" and had me wear breast pads to be less of an embarrassment.
I don& #39;t want to hear the words that trans men aren& #39;t punished for being masculine ever again, you got that?
