Being Pre-t Sucks Bc No Matter How Much I Work Out, I Still Have The Same Amount Of Muscles As A Twelve

being pre-t sucks bc no matter how much I work out, I still have the same amount of muscles as a twelve year old who does 20 push ups a day (apart from my back. Thank my family for a broad back and broad shoulders)

The funny thing is that in your traditional Superman story, Lois Lane is enamoured with big strong heroic Superman and wouldn't give mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent a second glance.

Then in Supergirl you have Lena Luthor, who's like "I need that reporter carnally (oh and there's also a superhero around that's cool)"

that moment when you finally start standing up for yourself and very politely correcting people when they deadname you (especially when it's around people that prior to this interaction, didn't know your deadname and than your biggest fear comes true BC the person that deadnamed you calls you arrogant and rude for correcting them... Very fun. Very delightful. Very demure.

quick reminder that my own gay ass genuinely supports the hell outta each and every one of you. regardless if i know you or not, im happy to be living in this shithole of a life in the same world with you.

and im proud of you, i know in my heart just how beautiful, amazing, talented, smart, and worthy you are and i hope you can see that too🏳️‍🌈🌈

Idk what trans man needs to hear this but you're NOT evil or disgusting for being a man. You do NOT have to suffer for the sins of the patriarchy committed by cis dudes. Being a man doesn't invalidate the misogyny you experienced growing up or experience now. Being a man doesn't mean you deserve to be isolated. Being a man doesn't mean you're inherently predatory or scary. You didn't "choose" this, and finding your true self is NOT "betraying the community" because you happen to be a man and/or masculine rather than a woman and/or feminine. You ARE allowed to be upset when people "affirm" your gender by malgendering you.

You DO deserve a community that uplifts you. You DO deserve to experience trans joy. You DO deserve to have your voices heard and your struggles recognized. Wanting the bare minimum of solidarity is NOT "making everything about trans men".

Abolish the YA genre. No more books for young adults. At some point in your adolescence, you just go from reading Goodnight Moon to War and Peace. No more stepping stone in the middle. Grow the fuck up.
