ugh i just responded to this thoroughly and tumblr ate it butthat’s really interesting and i think a lot about how i’ll be asked if/when i convert about if i understand the suffering of the jewish people/why i want to be jewish despite that (my night time already wrote a post poor wording of that), and by no means do i mean to make light of that question because it’s extremely important, but for me i DO feel like…yeah…i have already forfeited access to entire personhood, SO! here it is! that’s my lot in life! obviously being jewish =/= being trans or queer or mentally ill and there are different aspects to all of this, so it’s not like my life /won’t/ change because of anti semitism, but. you know. it’s. i’m not a cishet person who has never experienced…being unable to access the culture around me…and i am already primed for…idk…choosing what i feel truly matters despite that? even if it’s in a different way. -- source link
