nymphaeale:thewyndur:evolution-incarnate:thisismyblogithink:theduchessunseen:etrianodysseyobsession:carly-rae-transbians:My fav trans writer just made this on her Twitter so I thought I’d share.The major unlock for me was realizing that wanting to be a girl was a symptom of being a girl.Me realizing I was trans was me going “Wow. I wish I was transgender., I’d like to be a girl.” for MONTHS (this was when I started seriously questioning) till one day I was wishing I was trans and then I was just like:“……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….WAIT.”I remember when I was like 13 I read something about trans people in an informative way for the first time and in the span of about three seconds I was just like “oh. That’s a thing. That makes a whole lot of sense.”Ever since I could comprehend what a girl was I wanted to be oneThought it was normalThese comments are so pure and sweet I had to reblog!“wanting to be a girl was a symptom of being a girl” this was a huge stumbling block for me. I learned of the existence of trans ppl in my late teens, but always seen it framed as ‘they ARE [gender]’. But I thought I only WANTED to be a girl (which I didn’t realize wasn’t normal. Who wouldn’t, right?) It wasn’t until 6 or 7 years later that I figured out I was trans too… But that’s why posts like this are important to me, hopefully some trans ppl who haven’t realized it yet see them, and realize that this could apply to them. Cause while we are our gender, when you’re figuring it out; it feels less sure, cause the whole world is trying to tell you otherwise. -- source link
