    I don’t know if you are ready to hear this stuff, but you posted so I’m gonna say it.

    The parts of yourself that you hide in the closet are not ugly. They are beautiful. You are beautiful.

    You decide what you should be doing. Improving material conditions only helps when there is something to improve.

    Male privilege is nothing compared to authenticity.

    I speak from experience. My life started after transition.

    I know I speak from a place of privilege (for how long though?). So don’t risk your physical safety, but transition has worked out for me and a bunch of people I know.

    Best wishes stranger.

      well, i know you’re right about the ‘ugly’ part at least, i corrected that. Still working on actually feeling it, but anyway ¯_(ツ)_/¯

      thanks for the kind words anyway. at this point i’m pretty clear on who i am and what i should ideally be doing, i just need to work out basic survival atp :)
