I told my roommate that I am trans, for context, we are currently looking for a new place together.
And I am not sure she reacted well, when I told her that I am already on HRT, she told me to be very careful, with transition, and also to not always believe what psychiatrists tell me(she thought, that I thought that I am trans because someone else told me so). Also that she has some good documentaries about trans people if I am interested (I am not interested, for the record. I can't imagine that kinda stuff being any good)
Also she didn't want me telling possible future roommates that I am trans "as it isn't visible yet anyway", and that she doen't tell everyone that she is bi as well. But it is going to visible soon? I also don't want to hide. And I very much don't want to risk getting a transphobic roommate. (which is why I told her, to decide if it's a good idea to move together with her)
So are these red flags, or am I imagining things, and that is just the usual cis attitude to things?
Sounds very suspect.
I would ask her what documentaries she means, not because I think they're gonna be helpful for you, but they might give you some insight into what her opinions on trans people are and where she's gotten them.
I asked and she sent me one, which was a Documentary about detransitioniers(Detrans?). People who regret it basically, from the german state TV. I feel sending that to a trans roommate is really
The detrans person, who is the sole example in the doc, is also a well known german terf.
This is so fucking weird from a roommate. Why does she care. Are you two dating or something? I assume no
she just thought that that was good information to share with me.
