Those shitheads had an unintended opposite effect on me. All this attention on trans issues in the last decade or so made me think about some things about myself and my past and made me finally realize I'm not cisgendered either. 40+ years living as a man, and now am planning on going on HRT soon to live as the androgynous enby I really am.
❤️ I think I'd still be in the closet myself if not for getting so worked up by the election results back in November. I had started hrt on the down-low back in 2023, but I wasn't out to anyone. I didn't want those pricks to take away my ability to rename myself. So I rushed to get everything changed, though they still did screw me on the passport. Out to my coworkers and some of my family, plus everyone I do business with, and way happier for it, even if things are really far from ideal.
