    Alternative text: Me, sacrificing my health by sleeping too little so that I can be paid the absolute minimum that my corporate overlords can get away with, while extracting the most value possible from my labor.

    Time to get eatin’ 🍽️

    I’m beginning to think they’re just losers who’re mad that it’s not the 1940s anymore and that women having no purpose other than pumping out babies and dotting on their shitty husband isn’t something they can achieve anymore.

    I wonder how much mtf hate is rooted in weak men believing that women should be subjugated and forced to serve their “purpose” and mtf women wouldn’t do that even if they could.

    Nobody will fall for these losers anymore and society isn’t set up to support their desire to subjugate, they see mtf people and go “YOU MUST BE WHY NO WOMEN WILL BE MY BABY SLAVE ANYMORE!”

    Calling possessions “she” is just an extension of that imho, casual leftover misogyny in language.

    For the record I’m just a cis dude dating an mtf person for the last 8 months… this may be a bit of a ‘hot take’ lol - I’m learning, be gentle! 👉👈

    Yah this is more the sexuality side of it, but I think anyone who id’s as lgbtq+ can probably relate at least a little. I bet even asexual folks have felt relieved by not feeling guilty for not being attracted to people.

    I took it as a “I’ve finally become comfortable with the thing about me that society beat me into internalizing as wrong, fuck yeah” moment.

    I love recognizing these similarities in our experiences - solidarity amongst queers is good! Apes together strong 🦧🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈💜

    Yeah I can understand that - sometimes the lows can feel super low, but they wouldn’t feel so low if there weren’t highs to compare them to. 😉

    I know I’m giving a lot of unsolicited advice here, sorry! I have one more piece though - imho don’t focus on the actual act of finding a partner so hard. I think what has worked best for me was being open to relationships while working on myself. Fuckloads of therapy and putting effort into figuring out and dealing with all the twisted bullshit inside my own subconscious really made being in and keeping relationships less difficult. Finding a therapist you jive with is a godsend for that, and very worth the effort.

    Also. For the record, it’s not abnormal to go through a bunch of relationships before you find the right person. Don’t feel alone in that, you aren’t.

    You sound like a strong person, I think you have more of a chance than you give yourself credit for. Joo kan do eet! 😁
