    sociology and psychology and one of the more fascinating concepts.

    The fact that people try to argue that trans people simply did not exist prior to a few years ago is amusing to me.

      I’m a passing, sorta stealth, trans man. I always find it funny when someone claims trans people didn’t exist five or ten years ago, because I stated medically transitioning in 2012.

        yeah, it’s been around in the “modern era” since the 90’s, but it’s only really picked up steam on the internet in the last 5-10 years or so.
