1 - I can’t deal with the idea that the is NOT real, so I firmly refuse to look it up
2 - I cannot adequately express how much I fucking love this
Has anybody told you lately how proud they are of you? I’m just some old lady on the internet, but my kid is trans, and I’m so proud of him for being himself, and I’m proud of you too. Your dad may have been a bit of an ass about it, but you are brave - it takes so much courage just to be yourself for anyone, and so much more so for anyone who has anything other than the rich, straight, white identity idolized by so much of society. And yet here you are, with unsupportive parents, still dedicated to being you.
I’m so fucking proud of you. ❤️
Thank you so much, I’m going to see if I can find a copy!
Love you username btw - many hamburgers to you.
