coming out cont., transition
i already knew what i wanted since i was 16 but it wasn't until i was 21 that i got to start hrt. i already knew back then i should at least be on hormone blockers. my mom wouldn't let me.
i watched, already aware, puberty destroy every hope i had of being myself physically
i will never stop regretting not having been able to start sooner and avoid everything that still pains me to this day every single morning when i look at the mirror to shave
coming out cont., sui
my parents only stopped actively hating me after an unsuccessful suicide attempt
after one year or so hrt my mom finally always used the right name and pronouns for me
my grandmother, who i live with, is still a bigot
the rest of my family is a mixed bag
things are better now but i can't let go of the past
coming out, slurs
oh are we doing coming out stories
when i first came out as bi, my parents avoided the subject
when my mom found a skirt in my clothes she wouldn't look me in the eye for a week
when i came out as trans the first thing my dad told me was "not all bad people are faggots but all faggots are bad people" (he used stronger wording i have no real translation for)
when i locked myself in the bathroom and started crying for hours my mother threatened to throw me out of home
Context for the massive new wave of mastopeeps about why people are having a rough time esp today (CW Natalie, suicide)
We lost a member of the community (Natalie Nguyen) to suicide earlier this month, and today is her funeral. Lots of people are raw and thinking about death and the transphobia and racism and other shit that Natalie faced and many people here do, too. Lots of people are also at their absolute best offering care and love.
But there's room for you, too. Plenty of people didn't know her, and that's okay. You're welcome here. I just thought people might be confused and want to know.
