The Truth About Being Trans (or at least an ftm such as myself)

Chapter 1

Now let me clear some stuff up that a lot of people think about me and others so here is a small Q and A:

ʕ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʔʕ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʔ•̫͡•ʕ•̫͡•

-Why are you doing this overnight?

Holy fuck if only you knew. Cmon guys unless you're a transtrender, it don't happen overnight. Gender dysphoria started developing in my case from slight discomfort to today's 'holy shit if someone calls me by that name I will kill that person'. You don't just wake up and 'WhOoPiE dUdEnEsS' or 'WhOoPIE fEmAlE' or even 'WhOoPiE nEiThEr'. I thought I was just a tomboy most of the time.

- What happens if it's a phase?

Look, in my eyes there is a huge difference between dressing and displaying and mental feeling. Since I'm using myself as an example, think of it like this:

Tomboy- dresses and acts somewhat male (no hate to tomboys you guys are 👌)

Me- Huge discomfort and technically self hatred for birth sex causing me to act how my mind feels regardless of what's in my pants. In my case it causes hatred of birth name, display, etc.

- Why?

Because I'm tired of being more depressed than what I should be mkay?

(And now for one of the most common things)

*drumroll please*

- ItS a SiN. ThE bIbLe sA-

No. Just shut it. First off the line that people exercise for being gay is actually for pedophilia and as far as I am aware, the Bible doesn't mention specifics. It does not say in bold: FEMALE SHALT NOT BECOMETH MALE, or vice versa, or neither.

- I'll never see you like that

Well screw you too. My mother told me this and I wouldn't be here today if it weren't for some serious therapy from a friend. All we want is acceptance and to be loved. Our personalities won't change just our physical appearance. Just because I identify as male doesn't mean that my entire persona changed. Hell im practically the same person but somewhat happier. Surely I don't blame people for that fully due to how it can be hard to have the courage to speak up and tell said person. But don't say that. Kinda just breathe and keep it in.

- you doNt lOoK tRaNs

Well yeah of course I don't. And many don't look like what they identify as. My cause is my family. Others may be due to multiple things. Just because I look like a female, sound female, and am forced to dress as such doesn't mean I feel that way. I see myself as the opposite and mentally feel the opposite. But since my mother is well... that, I can't look the way I feel.
