I’ve never really felt fully comfortable being open about myself on big platforms like Reddit, but on here it feels a lot safer, especially since adopting better digital hygiene.

So I’m just kinda saying it explicitly for the first time that I’m a trans girl. I like myself, I like my body, even if it’s not perfect yet, and I like being pretty. I’m even slowly coming out more and more in real life too! Idk, everyone congratulate me or something haha

Things are hard, but I like how accepting the federated side of the internet has been so far to me.

    Yeah let’s focus on trans people, and ignore all the religious bullshit we feed our kids, or all the violence we show them. Its mind boggling how Americans are afraid of some nudity, but simultaneously show kids cartoons where violence and murder are just normal.

    I worry about the poor boys that don’t like women and have an idiot like you as a parent.

    I have a boy and trust me boys are not growing up thinking they are women. There are more people in jail/prison in the USA than there are trans people, so now all boys are growing up confused thinking they should be in prison?

      Agreed on basically all points, but tbf there are more people imprisoned in the us than an awful lot of more popular categories than trans folks.
