tumblr seems to be having a moment of closeted trans ppl policing out trans ppl about our literal lives being out & queer (especially if we don't pass or don't want to pass).

I wake up visibly nonbinary. I go to work visibly nonbinary. I shop grocery while visibly nonbinary. I go to the beach, the city, the range, the hospital, the airport, the courthouse, and the family reunion while visibly nonbinary.

Decades from now, when she's bald and married to a straight woman, or he's changing diapers on his third baby, I will *hopefully* still be here. choosing to live a comfortable lie will not grant you the wisdom I earned during those missed decades, living my truth.

Hi uhm. There's no one else that gets me like this page. I'm in this meat suit that suffocates me. I'm an ugly girl with an ugly body and ugly skin and I'm just. I just feel filthy. I'm tired. I can't explain it. I don't have a name and I would never allow myself to get on hormones or anything like ever I just want to say thank you anyways for posting about this. Sorry im babbling all of this is stupid your page is the only way for me to really explain to myself what all of this is though i just shove it away and pretend it doesnt exist. I really cant afford that life but its nice to see others have it . Its really nice it truly is. This community of people is very beautiful

You aren't an ugly girl. You sound like a beautiful trans person who is trapped in the closet, and gender dysphoria is killing you by inches.

I'm not a brave person. I'm able to live openly as an enban in the day-to-day because I'm fortunate enough to have supportive family and friends. Everyone deserves others who will validate the basic essential facts of one's identity and see one for oneself. You deserve to be validated in your gender identity, and I'm sorry you're suffering because that isn't yet the case.

I'm glad this blog can be of some solace to you. I hope you also meet people offline who will affirm your gender identity. If possible, it could be worth it to find a gender-affirming therapist with whom to talk through some of the obstacles you're facing; they aren't insurmountable. There are resources for you and people who will care for and respect you for who you are.

You say you'd never allow yourself to go on HRT, but if it's something that you really want and that will improve your quality of life by better aligning your bodily appearance with your preferred gender presentation, you should consider doing it. Even if it's hard to afford, it might be a necessary expense, one that may vastly improve how you feel and function. Some of the eventual effects of HRT are permanent, so you could go on it just long enough to obtain those effects.

At the very least, it is worth it to not ignore your gender identity anymore, even if only to yourself. Consider looking for a name that fits you, or changing your pronouns online if you have the privacy to do so. Start dressing and styling yourself how you'd like as much as possible, whether you medically transition and come out or not. If you do medically transition you can still come out later, if ever. It depends on what is safe for you, which might be scary before it is comfortable.

There is joy and wonder and beauty in being trans. Please take gentle care of the precious being that you are. 💜

i don't know if the asker will see this, but i hope you do.

bravery is not the absence of fear.

everyone is afraid of something, (if you're not afraid of anything, you've got a serious neurological problem), and there is a lot to fear in this world.

and sometimes all that being scared gets to you, it pushes you down, and it makes you feel like giving up is your only option.

but bravery is not the absence of fear - bravery is continuing when you are afraid.

a lot of people are under the impression that bravery is an emotion, but i don't think that's right. i think bravery is a choice.

things can make that choice harder or easier - but you need to remember that it is always your choice.

i know it's scary, but i believe in you.

btw it is never "detransition" when someone who formerly identified as binary trans comes out as nonbinary. you cannot "detransition" into being nonbinary, you are not a single bit less trans than you were when you identified as binary. someone figuring out they are nonbinary is always cause for celebration, and never cause for shaming or accusing them of "abandoning" binary trans people.

just wondering, what does misandrogny mean?

I hope I spelt that right lmao-

Its a term thats been used in transunity discussions to describe hatred of androgyny/androgynous people as the third arm of transphobia (along misogyny + misandry). I think I technically coined it in the tags of a transunity post but someone else probably slapped together mis- & -androgyny before me.

To me, this doesn't just mean people who choose to present androgynous/who identify as androgynous, but the societal hatred of people who can't fit into the binary. The biggest example that comes to mind is when people act violent towards someone specifically because they can't figure out their gender/sex; not being obviously male or female inspires a lot of rage in others because defying the binary is a threat to the patriarchy. Misandrogyny is a driving force behind a lot of exorsexism & a lot of hatred for trans people collectively, but also for anyone who defies the binary. From what I know its also a driving force behind a lot of intersexism. Misandrogyny sees anything not clearly and individually male/female as ugly, harmful, dangerous, embarassing, etc. and in need of destruction or correction.
